Food came out in a timely manner and overall was pretty solid. I had the pork belly appetizer which was quite good. Others at the table had the clams which were apparently tasty.

Definitely a good spot with a romantic and intimate feel.

We stopped by on June 16, 2026, after an enjoyable whale-watching excursion and were looking…read moreforward to having dinner here. Unfortunately, our experience ended before we ever made it to a table. When we arrived, the hostess was on the phone. We waited patiently, but there was no acknowledgment of our presence--not even a simple "I'll be right with you." Once she finished her call, we asked for a table for four. Rather than greeting us or explaining the wait in a courteous manner, she simply shook her head and informed us there would be a 40-45 minute wait. The issue was not the wait time; it was the complete lack of hospitality. Had we been greeted warmly and treated like valued guests, we likely would have waited. Instead, we were left with the clear impression that our business was neither wanted nor appreciated. We chose to leave immediately and spent $200+ at another restaurant where we felt welcomed. While I understand that busy restaurants often have long waits, there is no excuse for poor customer service and basic discourtesy. Based on this experience, I will not return, nor would I recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area.

We both ordered different glasses of wine - she wanted the sparkling rose but I went with the staffs white wine recommendation - which goes well with seafood and a lot of their menu. Missus liked my wine choice more than hers - but I liked the depth of flavour of her sparkling rose! Clay was the name of our server, who took great care of us this evening. For food we both ordered the "summer menu" - a four-course fixed price menu ($90 each, +$5 if you order beef, which was a 7oz wagyu). I chose the salad, the dry octopus, and the wagyu option; the missus picked the peach tartine, soup, and the halibut. Before the first dish came out, the missus and I both received the "amuse-bouche", which was a nice treat. The starters both came at the same time - carrot soup starter was nice and hot, and the salad was quite good also. The first starter came out - the missus preferred the peach tartine (had a tinge of fishy sardine to it?), I liked my octopus choice. The octopus was bigger than either of us had expected - which was nice. Both wines went well with both dishes. The mains took a bit longer to come out, but one nice thing was that throughout the meal they continued to replace cutlery. The halibut was great, but the wagyu (beef) with broccolini and potatoes (specifically beef) was next level incredible. I'm super impressed by how easily it is to chew and how incredible the flavour is. The potatoes were also quite good - fried, but not "deep fried". The broccolini was also delicious. The wait staff came back with a dessert menu after our mains. The missus picked the twice baked cheese soufflé, and I wanted the chocolate basque cheesecake. Throughout the meal there's an ambiance of a classical music playlist - hard to describe, but it's instrumental (purely). We finished the mains and had picked our fourth (dessert) course by 710pm. The soufflé was quite delicious. I really liked the chocolate basque cheesecake. The biscotti that came wihh the soufflé kinda confused me - it was good on its own but it didn't really enhance anything. The missus found the both equally good. Including both of our glasses of wine, and fixed price menu, it was $217 before tax and tip. I'm kinda shocked this place isn't at least a 4/5 on Yelp. Worth it, in my opinion. Note: no parking, you'd have to street park. Also, one bathroom stall - it's nice but it's only one for the entire restaurant.

I tried the prefix (4 course) menu which is comprised of one soup or salad, one appetizer, one…read moreentree and one dessert. It actually kind of 5 course as they gave everyone and initial little bite that the chef put together. I can't quite remember what it was, but I think it was some kind of cauliflower blended bite (see first pic). The price was definitely decent for the four course, it wasn't super expensive or anything. I also tried the goat cheese souflee, which was good, the crab roast was better though, then I had the pasta which needed salt and didnt have much flavor. I will say though that someone got the filet mignon and that was really good. The fondue was basic, but the bread and ice cream was amazing! So biggest takeaway is I think this place is really hit or miss. There's some items that are good/great and others that are really not good/great. So if you come and pick the good stuff I think you'd really enjoy it!

A solid performance from the fine dining venue at Roche Harbor Resort…read more THE ROSES: Probably the best thing about McMillin's is the service. From the hostess to the servers, McM's works very hard to ensure customer satisfaction. The staff is professional and gracious. The cuisine rises to its price point. Particularly noteworthy is their expertise at preparing seafood (which is a good thing because the Pacific Northwest is renowned for its seafood). Between my wife and I, our dinner had crab, oysters, scallops, prawns, salmon, and sablefish. All were prepared perfectly - nothing over- or under-cooked (of course the oysters, which were from the bay next door, which were raw and perfectly shucked. We mentioned it was our wedding anniversary, and our thoughtful server passed word of this to the people doing the nightly 'retirement of the colors' ceremony, where the MC mentioned it. That was a real treat. THE THORNS: It's partly because the resort caters to an upscale yachting crowd (which can be a bit boisterous after a few drinks), but the dining room can be a bit loud, particularly if you're seated in the back where the ceiling is lower. Try to avoid a table in this area. Another rather weird hiccup was they forgot to include the salmon that was supposed to be part of my seafood pasta entree. There were plenty of scallops and prawns and some crab, so I honestly didn't mind, because I'm actually indifferent to salmon. I did mention this to the server, and she brought out a small plate of perfectly prepared salmon in sauce. I was actually rather full by then, but the salmon did make for a perfect omelette filling the next day! THE VERDICT: The dinner was not cheap, but very good value for money. As resort area restaurants go, McMillin's Dining Room is actually better than one would normally expect. I heartily recommend this restaurant.

We had a large party for my birthday and the server did a great job of making sure we had everything we could need, including a constant supply of libations. We loved our server, he was awesome and helped make our night. Lots of gf designations on the menu made it easy for me to order, and I was super excited to get to have the crab bisque! It was delicious and I could have just had another helping of that and been satisfied. We also had the crab artichoke dip, which was very good, and shared a filet that was perfectly prepared. The drinks were super cute too, I now have quite the collection of piggies. The only let down was the dessert, we ordered the creme brulee, but it was not bruleed.. just creme. Wasn't very pleasant to eat. Other than that, it was a perfect meal.

Having made reservations beforehand, we were really excited to try this place out. The servers who greeted us were really nice. The restaurant had a beautiful dark interior that gave off a cozy steakhouse vibe. They even offered to take my coat, how nice of them! Despite the hospitality, the food did not really live up to expectations. I got the birria, and while it was okay, it definitely wasn't worth the price I paid. My girlfriend's scallop crudel was almost as pricey and it did not even fill her up. I believe the bill for our whole meal (including a mocktail) was over $80. This was definitely not worth the price point paid for, considering that we were not fully satisfied with that meal. Regardless, many thanks to the Monti staff for having us.

First visit and I'm smitten. Great decor and service, but the meal really distinguished itself…read more First course was a fennel shaved salad with exceptional flavor - don't be dissuaded by the reference to anchovy dressing - it works magnificently and nothing overpowers. The chicken liver with summer tomatoes was magnificent, even if they needed an extra slice of sourdough to finish the plate. The star was the roasted pork belly. I've had many in my day but this was the crown jewel of belly's - succulent, tender inside and crispy edges, and the flavor was off the chart delicious. Rigatoni with lamb did not disappoint and pasta was cooked to perfection. Saved room for chocolate mousse and it was excellent and not too sweet. Wine pairings supported the wonderful meal.
