Tried out Miller's Seawall Grill

An old friend came in from out of town and we went to breakfast at Miller's, which used to be Miller's Landing when he lived here.  The place is so transformed that he wouldn't have recognized it on his own.  Food is transformed also, from those days.  My friend told me his fried eggs were done well, and the ham slices were nice and thick.  Biscuits were good too, and served with real butter (one of his fetishes).  I had the "Pappas and Eggs Skillet" which was relatively bland but the hot sauce provided tastied it up somewhat.  Too bad they serve Coffee Mate instead of real cream for the coffee. The interior is really lovely with lots of wood and architectural detail, and nice light jazz in the background.  I sure wish they'd tone down the paint color outside!

Hey, Dining Diva --  Check out my story on the owners of Miller's in July's OutSmart Magazine.

Thanks, I'll look for it.  I have some awareness  of the owners, who definitely have a commitment to the Island.

well if they wanted to get the Island talking about them by painting that place such aweful colors ... then they did a great job!!

I agree the interior is very nice and the food is so-so , I guess it might have to be a little bland to keep the old timers that used to hang there happy.. I'm sure they don't want to lose their old customers.

Right.  What's that quote about publicity: that any kind is better than none?

My dining buddies assured me that I should never order a Mexican breakfast anywhere but a Mexican restaurant. I guess what I REALLY wanted was migas! They assured me that their meals were quite fine, and they knew the old Miller's menu.
