This is a fabulous restaurant. Great food and eclectic choice of options; friendly staff; peaceful atmosphere without televisions and loud music. The night I was here there was piano music that was lovely. If you’re in town for a visit to the Mayo Clinic or for any other reason, this is definitely a place where you can get clean, healthy food.

The meal was outstanding. The waiter was fantastic. Congenial, helpful and professional . We started with the excellent hummus appetizer served with wonderful flatbread. The Sea Bass was exceptional, fresh and flakey. Shrimp salad also was excellent.

This place is amazing! I got the sea bass and the broccoli on the side. Courtney was a great server and made sure I was well taken. It seems like they have everything on the menu for whatever you’re feeling. I highly recommend this place!

I was excited to get to Mill Valley as I haven’t been able to make it since they opened. I was pretty disappointed. First we ordered a couple drinks, the mixed drink was great but my wife ordered a Chardonnay, but got a champagne, unfortunately she doesn’t like champagne. Then I ordered some oyster with our appetizers. I know he got the order because he asked which kind I wanted, but the oysters never showed up. I ordered the Grilled Fillet medium rare. The fillet was quite over cooked. It also appeared to be missing a couple of the components, the cilantro greens and the black garlic sauce. The dish really needed those extras to bring it together. It kind of was an mildly seasoned steak on squash puree.
I will say the scallops were well plated and good dish. Also the curried cauliflower was really good will definitely be eating the leftovers.
I’m not writing this to just complain, but for the price we paid I was hoping for a bit more.
Also appreciate their gluten free options. That’s great to see.

Loved the live piano music! Desserts were fabulous and the perfect size. The vegetables were also lovely. A must visit when in Rochester. Wish they had more vegetarian entrees though. Hint hint.

We stopped in for a quick lunch and we were very happy with the decision. First, the atmosphere is fantastic, very clean and modern, but still warm. The staff were friendly, helpful and efficient and the food was delicious. We got a Turkey avocado wrap and the Mediterranean wrap and both were fantastic. The bar is fantastic and the beer on tap selection is better than most in the area.
If you haven’t been in yet, do yourself a favor and give these guys a try!

Such a wonderful new spot with healthy option in downtown Rochester. This place is great for grabbing a bite anytime. You can go for a quick lunch, bring the whole family for a meal, or grab a snack and drink at the bar. The best part is the menu. It’s hard to choose between the hearty salads, soups, flatbreads, and seafood. In my opinion the oyster po-boy was one of the best things on the menu. Definitely give it a try.

This place is so cute! The atmosphere was delightful and the ladies (Courtney & Jess) were awesome! They were MN nice mixed with New Orleans hospitality!
The food was fresh and clean. It was filling but not uncomfortable and stuffy! We had a mixed green salad, vegan chilli (The Best), chick wings with a dry rub and a tomato nail flatbread. We LOVED it all, but the chili hit the spot in this cold.
Don’t skip dessert; we had 3 mini desserts (key lime, crème brûlée & triple chocolate). All were sooo good!
I would definitely recommend it and will be coming back!
Thanks, Courtney & Jess for your warm smiles, great attitudes and making us feel like we’ve known you both forever!!!

Pleasantly surprised!
We generally try out every restaurant that opens in town, and frankly Mill Valley has some really tough competition with the other newer places. When I first looked at their menu and prices online I was really underwhelmed and wondered who the target audience actually was. I don’t really know why that was my knee jerk reaction, but when we actually got there and ate the food it was great.
1) Ambience – it has light wood tables and floors with natural-themed decorations. It feels very nice and fresh when you come in.
2) Service – Our server was fine. I think still getting used to the menu himself a little bit, but overall very good and attentive, kept our drinks full and could provide some recommendations.
3) Food (the important part) – Genuinely really good. We had a larger group so we were able to order a spread of items – We had Ahi Poke, Tempura Veggies, Walleye (I believe that was a special of the day), pork tenderloin, fig flatbread, and a variety of cocktails.
The tempura veggies are extremely dill forward – they use a fresh dill and salt on top. I am generally not a huge dill fan and found that some bites were absolutely amazing and others were a little “too much”. My husband disagreed and said that the tempura veggies were fantastic all the way through.
The tuna poke was great – I really liked getting the bib lettuce with it to make little poke wraps. I think the ratio between the filling and the lettuce was a little off – could maybe do a little less lettuce to match the filling, but I’m nitpicking. The flavors were good, it was marinated nicely, and the bites of avocado really balanced out the acidity of the marinade. (I’m having a hard time believing there’s multiple 1* reviews about undercooked tuna… poke is always raw and the other option is also a tuna steak, traditionally served rare in the middle? thats just what that food is? what??? what do you mean that’s bad and unexpected, i’d never expect well-done tuna? its not a can of Chicken of the Sea? I digress…)
The bites of everything else I tried were also all well cooked and seasoned. Presentations were also nice. I think the Martini might be a bit over engineered with all the little bottles and vials and having to add your own sprits of vermouth, but I suppose that’s a good way to stop people from complaining about vermouth after ordering a drink with vermouth in it.
I think I’d love to have a few more white wine options by the glass instead of bottle, but I’m just a picky drinker. There were still plenty of options to choose from.
Overall, we really liked this place, it exceeded my expectations, my initial reaction to photos and menu was it looked cheap and basic and was overpriced, but once actually inside it’s quite nice with very well done food and the cost is entirely acceptable for how good the food is.

Mill Valley Kitchen is a new bright spot for innovative healthy food that’s delicious! Many choices that are vegan or vegan adaptable. Our table had vegan chili, tempura and ratatouille which was all vegan and all were amazing. We were too full to try the chia strawberry pudding. Courtney our server was the best! She knew which items we could eat with our vegan lifestyle. Also the decor and setting was beautiful and pleasant. Highly recommend!
