Amazing place. The staff is wonderful. Always happy and helpful. Great breakfast selection. The eclectic decor makes it very homey.

Lovely restaurant with friendly staff, great ambiance. We enjoy the calm environment.

Had a great breakfast at Millie's this morning - the short stack of blueberry pancakes hit the spot and the service was great as always.

A trip to Sarasota just wouldn't be complete without a breakfast at Millies Restaurant. It's a Sarasota institution. Though it only serves breakfast and lunch, what it serves and the volume of business it does is like nowhere else. Like my trip here was the first time ever for me to have made reservations for breakfast, but the place is so popular that without reservations you could end up waiting over an hour. When you walk into Millies you'll find out that the place is huge with several distinct, separate and apart dining areas. It has a décor somewhat like what an Amish mothers house might resemble and though always packed with people the noise volume isn't that bad. The service staff is casual professional, unrushed and really know what they are doing as well as being fully capable of handling large crowds. For myself, being ethnic Swedish, I of course had the Swedish Pancakes and those with me, being ethnic French, had the French Pancakes. Of course the pancakes themselves, whether Swedish or French, are identical, the same light and thin crepe. The only differences being the dressings. Mine came with lingon berry and their two French orders came one with strawberry and the other with an apricot and sour cream. All were totally delicious and there were plenty of them to the plate, making for a full meal. read more

Yum yum. My breakfast omelette was perfection. A little wait -but worth it. Fresh and hot.

This is my favorite quaint restaurant with great food for breakfast or lunch. Family owned and the service and food is always great. Breakfast has a large assortment and the pancakes and waffles look out of this world but I order the traditional breakfast which is always cookedright and their potato are awesome. For lunch my favorite is the chicken salad croissant with the best French fries. I always take guests here and eat here by myself sometimes. You won't be disappointed. always great!!!

It's a staple in Sarasota. Nothing special but good food and good service. Ambiance is cozy home like.

My online order was not ready when I arrived due to a technical issue. They owned the mistake and were able to rush an order so I only had to sit for about 10 minutes. Overall the Food was great. Looking forward to dining in sometime soon read more

Food and drinks were fine, the fat Hispanic server with a wrist brace however had a attitude for no reason at all even when we were being super friendly immediately pissed me off and when he comes to fill my parents coffee he pushed my phone as I'm using it on the table and I held it where it was so he clearly felt that I was pushing back and he pushed again being able to fill the coffee a million different ways, doesn't know how to treat or talk to clients in my opinion being in the industry I would definitely not want that man working for me and representing me. read more

It looks great from the time you walk in until the time you walk out! Millies is the best breakfast we had the entir4e month that we were in Siesta Key on vacation! I had the "Country Breakfast" and my wife had the BLT, both of us were totally satisfied! The service was excellent, the food was delicious and the price was fair......You just wont do any better for breakfast or lunch! read more

Had good reviews so we gave it a try. Service was okay, food was just plain Jane. Had eggs, sausage, home fries, bagel, an omelette and rye toast. Nothing was seasoned, had to salt and pepper everything. At best it was just alright. read more

Most amazing breakfast place ever! I love this place so much, the blueberry stuffed French toast is like no other! Me and my husband love this place. I brought my sister to eat breakfast here and she loved it! It also became her favorite brunch restaurant read more

My mother, aunt, and I dined at Millie's this morning for breakfast. We found this restaurant to be cozy, charming, and welcoming. We were waited on by a very nice waiter named Juan. From the moment he came over to us he was kind, welcoming, and engaging with us. He accommodated us in our food requests. In my personal opinion, Juan is an excellent waiter who takes pride in making his customers feel at home. Thank you Juan and thank you Millie's for having such a talented waiter on your staff! I can't wait for our next return trip to Sarasota and hopefully, he will wait on us again! The food was excellent and we highly recommend this restaurant to new patrons! read more

This place is so cute and quaint. The hostess were friendly and the customer service was really good. The food was very good. We didn't wait to long (but we did have a group of 6). Great place! read more

Delicious. Best pancakes around. This restaurant has always been good they never have an off day. If you are in the Sarasota area this is a must try. read more

My family and I dined in once pre-covid and have probably gotten takeout 2 or 3 times since then. We have not been back since the pandemic started in March. The ability to order lunch during breakfast time is a great option! What we love about Millie's is that the portion of food is larger than other breakfast restaurants like Broken Egg or First Watch. When we dined in we did have a small wait time of about 20mins. Waiters and greeters were friendly. Packed place with a blast from the past decor. read more

My family has eaten at Millies many times over the past few years. Everyone always likes their food and we are seated relatively quickly even with crowds.This restaurant seats a lot of people. Relaxing, good food, consistently good. read more

Great service all the time French toast is great waiters are on top of everything overall a great place to eat

Family place that just feels like home. Food is always good and service is a pleasure.

Excellent food excellent staff. Breakfast is very good and Bloody Marys are very good!

Have been meaning to give this place a try. Our waitress was funny and friendly. The decor is a bit kitschy but fine. The menu was plasticized to allow for cleaning between guests. They were able to social distance due to the size of the restaurant and the numbersI of the people they were trying to accommodate. The food is genuinely good. My husband went for the German Apple and pecan pancake. It was huge and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He polished it off....I opted for the poached eggs and grits. It was a cut above what you would normally get. Will definitely return as it close and the prices are fair. read more

Millies Restaurant - German Apple and pecan pancake...worth the wait! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sarasota, Florida

We love Millie's! Perfect breakfast and attentive staff in a comfortable setting. Consistently wonderful!

While in Florida our friends took us to breakfast at a very full, spotless, friendly, country decorated restaurant. The service was quick and deliberate. The waitress was armed with recommendations and a Coffee Pot. I ordered Ham and Eggs with a Pancake. The eggs were cooked perfect. The Ham was good and the Pancake was extra large, hot with good flavor. Everyone else's meal was tasty and good. Millie's is competent at what they do, hot fresh breakfast with good taste and large portions. They're good, Four-Star good. Give them a try! read more

I can walk to Millies from my home and eat here often. Usually the food is excellent. I ordered the Russian Blintzes on a Saturday morning.....bad idea. The kitchen was using old and nasty tasting oil. Ruined the dish. Someone needs refresher training read more

Not a fan at all. This place just doesn't do it for me. Their food is bland and tasteless and the service was shoddy. For the price, I was hoping for something better, but I was dissatisfied with this Sarasota landmark. Bottom Line:. Go somewhere else for breakfast. It really isn't worth the hype. read more

Me and my family go here almost everyday for breakfast. The food is amazing and the service is wonderful. They always bring out the food so quick. I love it here. read more

Let's start off with thanking our waiter, Juan who was attentive and nothing short of amazing! He gave us recommendations and options to help us make our decisions since we were starving and everything on the menu looked delicious! The decor of this place is adorable, bathrooms were clean as well +1! Mimosas were $5.00 which was another +1! The home fries were delicious, well everything was! Generous portions that's for sure! You won't be disappointed! read more

Lot of options. Breakfast items are good to! Lunch wraps and sandwiches are good. Service is fast and friendly.

Came to siesta key on a late night drive. Came for Christmas Eve, some of the best service by our waitress who was really nice got us all our food swiftly and gave us an introduction to the menu and their specials. The food came swiftly as well and was amazing, we ordered the pancakes, country breakfast, French toast, and blintzes which were some of the best breakfast food we've ever had. Great service and food loved this place, everyone was so nice. read more

It takes a lot for me to say wow after a meal. I am easy to please. WoW!!!!! This breakfast was awesome. I had a cheese and sausage omelette, probably the best omelette I've ever had. Potatoes were perfect, toast and jelly, great coffee. All for a reasonable price. And I'm stuffed! read more

Large restaurant but you feel like youre dining in someone's home. During the weekend expect to wait but it's worth it. The pancakes are delicious and the serving is generous and I can eat:) On the days when Im behaving better I order the Greek salad with grilled salmon. The salad is always fresh and the salmon plainly grilled. The quality of the service really depends on who you get but most of the servers are fantastic. I highly recommend Millie's. read more

Quick serve, with a smile. Great food. . Reasonable. I had country breakfast, two eggs, bacon, 5 pieces, and French toast. The French toast was amazing. My husband had eggs Florentine. He liked them. Plenty of food. We will definitely return. read more

Experience wasn't bad, a nice little place. Just wasn't feeling the food. For some reason the eggs just tasted off. The French toast tasted like grilled cheese. Maybe I'm tripping but that's what I think it tasted like. But yeah I don't mind it, just expected better food. First time being here though. I'll stop back another day and give it another shot. read more

We popped in for an early Sunday breakfast and were very pleasantly surprised. We were initially heading to another restaurant that turned out to be closed for the holiday. My wife had spotted Millie's and we decided to give it a try. Our server was LeAnne, who was warm and professional, she had a genuine smile like she really loved customers. My wife had the pecan pancakes and a side of hash and I had eggs Benedict..All of the food was wonderful and fresh. My plate was left clean, I was hungry and the eggs, ham and hollandaise were so good. My wife's pancakes were warm, fluffy and delicious. The coffee was good and LeeAnne saw that it was always full and warm. We will definitely be back and hopefully have LeAnne make breakfast as sweet as it was this 4th of July. read more

Great service and food! This place is a gem. This place has been busy for very time we go but there is never a long wait. The eggs Benedict is so good! read more

Service is super slow and the food didn't taste fresh. Everything was cold. Don't waste your time going here. No good breakfast places on the island. You have to drive into Bradenton. Might as well go to Denny's or IHOP. read more

I can't believe I've never been here before! This quaintly decorated brunch spot has the best buttermilk pancakes. Millie's looks like the perfect place to have a tea party. The restaurant is clean and open. I had a sweet tea (which was awesome) because I've been told their coffee is very weak. I had the country breakfast which includes two eggs, two buttermilk pancakes, and bacon. Those buttermilk pancakes are so so good. Light and fluffy! The bacon left a lot to be desired. The bacon was extremely thin and not very flavorful. Next time, I'll opt for the sausage. My grandmother LOVED the biscuits and gravy. She only ordered two of them but there was so much she needed a to go box. My mother had a blueberry pancake and was really happy with her choice. They put real, fresh blueberries -- not that junk from the can. I think I've found my new favorite brunch spot! read more

This place is as good or better than advertised. We went on a Sunday about 10:30. After short wait we were seated in one of the three main dining areas. The place is open and has lots of natural lighting by the large sliding class doors at both ends of the room. Our server came right away to take out drink order. From there the service only got better and better. Our food came out with little to no wait, mind you the place was totally fulll. My wife got the cheese blintzes and said they were so good we all had to try them, she was right, awesome. I had the country breakfast which was outstanding. The pancakes were light and fluffy. The eggs were cooked just right and the bacon was crispy and very well done. Our daughter got the bacon, egg and cheese croissant. It was cooked and seasoned just right. They also have a full lunch menu to go along with the breakfast choices. We may try lunch next time, but one things for sure, we will be back. read more
