| - This is not the first time I've been to Milestones, but particularly, this was my 2nd visit to this location.
Having both worked late, my gf and I decided to come here and try their Date Night specials on Wednesdays. The acquisition of a $50 gift card from work also swayed our decisions.
We were both indecisive so we both ended up getting the 8oz steak sirloin from their selection menu for Date Night. We shared a huge caesar salad as a starter, and along with our mains, finished it with a warm large chocolate fudge cookie topped with vanilla ice cream as a dessert.
It was a crowded restaurant; mostly office workers, must be the year end Christmas dinner/party. Especially since it was only a Wednesday night.
She ordered rare and I ordered my usual medium rare. Being steak enthusiasts, we found it very dry and dull/bland to taste on the outside. It only became slightly moist near the centre, and that was it. The side of vegies, green beans sprouts and carrots were dried like wood. We didn't touch it at all after one bite. Mashed potatoes were flavorless, tasted prefrozen and thawed then reheated.
I don't recall Milestones being this bad before. Did their quality gone down the drain? I recall having had a fantastic prime rib in years past before. Was it because this is from the Date Night menu?
The salad was great though, but how do you screw up salad, really now...
To top it off, we both ended up with indigestion and a bad experience with the porcelain throne at home 2 to 3 hours after dinner. Was there something in the salad, steak or cookie? Must be the steak perhaps...ugh.
I would most likely not come here again.
