Our Fall Harvest (Thanksgiving) dinner at Millennium was delightful. As long-time vegetarians, we've had our share of lackluster holiday meals, but Millennium exceeded our expectations.

The mushroom torte was a particular standout. The vegetables were perfectly cooked, and the flavors were exceptional. Our server, Steven, who is also a chef, offered insightful recommendations that enhanced our dining experience.

The restaurant's ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a special occasion. We highly recommend Millennium to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience.

Incredible food, I’m typically not a fan of Vegan food but this place knows how to combine healthy combinations and excellent preparation technique.

The approach to the 4 course approach is that you “Select as you go” through each separate meal.  A simple and effective process as you may want to try something different as you progress through your selected meals.

Drinks menu is a bit scare, but all in all they have a full bar and can make you nearly anything you ask for.

When you come to a place like this, not only you want to leave impressed with great food, you also want to be treated.

We had to wait 25 minutes outside for our "reservation", on top of that there was no place to wait inside and were told to wait outside, not welcome as it was somewhat cold outside and I had my kid as well.
In terms of service, the server themselves were very courteous and respectful of our time, however, the service was REALLY slow for a 4 course meal, entire meal lasted around 2 hours, with a LOT of waiting in between. Maybe, it felt too long because we didn't order pairing wine (no, I do not want to willingly ingest something that not good for me), but then, shouldn't they serve the food faster?

Coming to the food, deserts were good, but the food was a little under-whelming. For starters, we were on the prix fixe menu, asian inspired dishes were good tasting overall, but I felt it was a bit over-seasoned in terms of salt.

Among the two mains, the most depressing part was their spinoff on biryani, which didn't do justice to the name. When you call something a biryani, it needs to have "flavor in every rice grain", they paired it with a spinach curry which was very under-seasoned in terms of spices, almost lacking any meaningful flavor. The tofu was not even marinated properly.
The asian tempeh was alright in terms of taste, but nothing extra-ordinary, I liked the multiple textures that were put in plate though.

Honestly, I expect better hospitality and food when you pay the premium price.

We went here on a Friday night, just me and my vegetarian leaning daughter.  I picked it because of the great reviews, and how much I love prix fixe menus. The facility was easy to find, parking was a little tougher, but we found some. The waiter we had was really nice, and the service was mostly prompt. They did forget our Amuse Bouche initially though, but once mentioned they brought it right out.

For drinks, the menu looked pretty good, I ended up with a Faction IPA, and a Cuver Saison during dinner. Good options that paired well with the food.

For food, the Amuse Bouche was some housemade focaccia w/ some dips and olives basically. It was quite tasty and it was excellent bread.

The Starters we got were the Little Gem Salad & The Seared Jimmy Nardello Peppers. I loved the peppers, they were like Shishito's but less spicy. Super fresh and popping with flavor. The kid liked their salad, the dressing was light and full of flavor.

For Mains, I got the Tamal, and they got the Red Wine Roasted Artichoke.  My Tamal was fantastic, I cleaned the plate. It was just loaded with great taste and the mole sauce was fantastic. Their Artichoke was good as well, and they really liked the Farrotto on it. They ate almost the whole plate.

And finally dessert, I got the Cheesecake and they got the Nectarine Crumb Pie.  Cheesecake was good, solid vegetarian dessert.  They like the Crumb Pie was well. The desserts were good, but the Mains were the real standout.  Overall it was a great experience.

Our awesome experience started with a phone call from Imani. She was following up about a request I made on Open Table for a quiet spot because I’m highly sensitive. She was so understanding and kind. When we arrived, we had a great place on the patio. The food met all expectations and the N/A cocktails were sophisticated. There were lots of gluten free options with a GF vanilla  cheesecake to die for. The service was impeccable. The restaurant is located in a great neighborhood and we walked off the wonderful dinner we had.
Please support this all vegan establishment and their wonderful, attentive staff!
