I haven't been a big fan of Milestones Grill + Bar because I feel the food and prices are not a good match (food there is too pricey and they do not provide fresh enough seafood to be charging so much). But I decided to give it a second try at a new Milestones.
This night it was "Girl's Night" and how convenient Milestone's offered a "Girl's Night Out" promotion. The promotion allows four girls to order 4 Bellini 's (which is Milestones' special promotional drink which is a peach flavoured drink with mixed with 7-up and contains an alcohol of some kind). And to choose 4 appetizers from a list of 10-15 items for $40 (Canadian).
I have to say I wasn't pleased with the service nor with the food. We had a total of 33 girls, which means 4 Bellini's didn't work out properly, so we asked our server, not only did he allow us to order a fifth one for the same price for the odd member - (which is not his fault) but he kept mentioning some minimum charge that we had to pay for each guest present. I would not mind if he was nice but his attitude was not good. Usually servers at Milestones are rather well trained and very nice, but I guess we were unlucky this time.
I was quite disappointed in the Bellini because it was suppose to be their signature drink, however, the Bellini's we got were not made well. There was little peach flavor (which is supposingly the main flavour of this drink) and they added a LOT of alcohol, making the drink taste like something from a 20% alcohol drink.
The food was fortunately quite good. We ordered some pasta dishes and were quite full after.
I would recommend Milestones if you would like to take your party to an environment which looks good with good service (usually), but not so if you want to enjoy food and drinks.
