My wife is moving towards vegetarianism for health reasons and so we came to Millenium on the recommendation of an acquaintance. He had told us it helped convince him he could go from being a total meat eater to a lot more veggie centric diet. I can see that now that we have eaten here. We came here to celebrate my wife's birthday. The prices are not that bad for a better restaurant like this one, which is featured in the book "East Bay Chefs". It was $65/ea for the pre fixe dinner. I went with the beet and blood orange salad, kohlrabi steak panko fried, and the hazelnut chocolate torte (gianduja) as my choices. My wife chose the coriander and Arborio crusted oyster mushrooms, portobello mushroom shawarma, and the coconut sundae for dessert. We shared (we are super light drinkers) a "Lovers Lane" cocktail, which is smoked Mezcal based. We loved everything! All plates cleaned before we were done. Overall, I was impressed with the taste and presentation of the food being great in an absolute sense, vs. "really good for vegetarian". My salad was super, and the rice paper with seaweed allowed me to make a small sushi roll by stuffing some salad fixings in them and eating the resulting hand roll. Great! My main course was crunchy and flavorful. I especially loved the polenta, which was so creamy and buttery. The gianduja torte was fantastic along with the accompanying scoop of ice cream. Really loved the toasted hazelnuts!Our cocktail was great, and it is a treat watching Chris the bartender do his thing. No blenders here. He uses shakers, strainers and his strong arms to bring the concoctions to life. My wife's food was great, especially the deep fried oyster mushrooms. The shawarma was meaty even though it was done with mushrooms. It is not that someone would be "fooled" by it, but it was substantial enough to be satisfying to chew. Loved the staff. A handy hint is to make reservations and think about sitting at the bar instead of a table so you can see Chris make drinks. Going for an early (5pm) dinner also helps with parking as well as seating. Enjoy!
