The Inn at Millrace Pond is a lovely, is a romantic restaurant located in a bed and breakfast converted from a Moravian village gristmill, circa 1770. The restaurant has undergone new ownership since July, 2007. Viewers comments and a recent visit by New Jersey Leisure Guide have confirmed that there is a drop-off in the quality of food served at the Inn. The new menu is more adventuresome, however, the quality and the preparation of the dishes are not up to the fine reputation this Inn has been previously noted for. The decor has a historic country feeling with a large stone wall, exposed posts and beams, and candlelit tables. Check out the tavern in the basement it is charming with a large walk-in fireplace, grain chute, and trimmings and memorabilia covering the tavern's history as a working mill. There is also a huge wine cellar located adjacent to the tavern. At the outset, your waiter will greet you with a basket of very tasty fresh made multi-grain bread rolls, served warm. For starters, try the Crab Cakes & Smoked Trout Cake with sauces of mango, basil & citrus; or the Gorgonzola & Dried Fruit Stuffed Quail with wilted kale & lemon brown butter. For entrees, try the Pork Osso Bucco with mascarpone polenta triangles; or the Rib Eye Steak with black pepper butter & baked potato melange. The Lamb Leg Steak with huckleberry mint risotto is not recommended, the lamb is not at all tender. The Inn also offers an extensive wine list with over 90 bottles and 15 wines by the glass. They are child friendly with a children's menu. While the service is very friendly and attentive, they can use a bit more polishing up. |
