This was the first time dining at the Sugar Mill Restaurant, and we already made another reservation to come back!
Service was excellent, the owner is lovely and very attentive. The drinks and food were delicious and the birthday cake that they made specific for our party was amazing, probably one of the tastiest cakes we have ever had. Thank you Sugar Mill for making our night a memorable one. See you soon

The Sugar Mill Restaraunt remains excellent! The service was attentive but not rushed. The lobster was delicious. The setting on the Terrace was beautiful and felt just like dining in the Sugar Mill room used to feel but with ocean sounds. We also stayed in the hotel which was perfect and we were able to have a wonderful breakfast as well. Could not recommend higher. You should eat here.

Lovely wait staff who make you feel genuinely welcome. The menu at Sugar Mill is classic French, very traditional but nothing wrong with that as long as you enjoy butter and cream (which we do). I eat here regularly and it is consistently good. I like the wide selection of "house" wines which are reasonably priced at $37 per bottle (a very low mark-up on local retail prices) and the more luxury selection is very nicely curated, with some real gems to enjoy.

Beautifully arranged, food was good, my lobster was overcooked. Servicer was very friendly, but service was very slow coming from the bar & kitchen.
I’m sure it has to do with employee issues. Def will be back

our party of 4 enjoyed 2 dinners at Sugar Mill and table location makes a difference. the first dinner our table was on the first tier near the bar was lovely. second dinner 2/9 we were the last table at the rear of restaurant. okay but there was quite a disturbance in the kitchen between staff, the manager had to intervene several times. it caused uneven service and was distracting. 2 dinners arrived and there was a fairly long wait for the remaining 2 meals to be delivered. also fine dining we expect the server to know who ordered what - not asking who gets the fish pie??

Always love the sugar mill. However, this time we had a really awful table. Since we had made our reservation almost 6 months ago i would have thought we would have been in a better location. That being said, Marilyn was a fantastic server and the music was excellent.

The manager is amazing and the owner wonderful but the staff couldn't offer proper service, waited over an hour for drinks and had to ask. Not everyone got the same menu. Had to ask for drinks multiple times and they would bring out one plate at a time. We had 3 kids with us who were pretty hungry but everything took so long that we had to break the party up and send some kids home and take to go boxes. The owner organised all of that for us which was wonderful because the staff weren't doing it.

This was a difficult review to make because the service was wonderful and everyone else’s food was amazing; however, as a vegetarian, it wasn’t! Risotto was the only vegetarian option and I chose the caprese one. The olives were the cheap ones I never buy and I don’t actually think fresh basil was used, and instead, they used dried. All I can say is it wasn’t very nice at all. When you consider I was charged $25 for the basic risotto and then another $10 for the mozzarella, basil and olives, I was not impressed!
Everyone else’s food looked great and was thoroughly enjoyed but as a vegetarian, I am fed up being offered very little choice and the quality being poor.

The only hiccup was a special escargot plate was dropped on a lady guest with remaining butter hitting her dress. She was nice about it, but no accommodation was made to credit the plate or anything.

I didn't rate the vegetables - I thought they let the plate down. We were a table of six but we waited quite a while for our food. The food was really delicious however, it was cold when it came out. We had waited so long so didn't send it back. So we did enjoy it but there were some issues. I doubt I would come back with a group more than four people.
