What diners say — our read

Read the reviews alone and you would never guess the grade. The staff tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 4.4 stars.

Of the 22 rated reviews, 20 sit at four stars or better and 2 at two or below. More reviewers landed on 5 stars than any other score — 19 of 22.

Set against that, the state's own inspection graded the kitchen a D (64/100), with 3 high-priority, 1 intermediate, and 9 basic violations recorded. Reviews describe the meal; the grade describes the conditions it was made in. That result dates from June 16, 2026. Its inspection trajectory is upward over the records we hold. Ranked against Orange County, it is safer than 6% of the restaurants we score. What the inspector actually wrote up: food from approved source and food & equipment thermometers provided and accurate.

The practical read: people enjoy eating here, and the kitchen still failed its last inspection. Those are separate claims, and only the second one gets checked by anybody. Full reviews follow below in the order they were left.

    Miller's is our go-to for good food and good prices. Live the Zingers (especially on Mondays for the discount!)

  • June 23, 2026

    Hailie was extremely nice and friendly welcoming us in and letting us know of a small wait before being seated. Alex was our waitress and she did her job very well. Food was amazing as well. Definitely will be back

    Great food and excellent service 😄

    A small group of us meet once a week here. The Ale House is modern and clean. The menu rotates. And the staff is fast, efficient and friendly.

  • June 12, 2026

    Food was great, service was good, the noise level is very high, so expect loud conversations and background music. No intimate conversations in here. There is an outside covered dining, but temps are in the 90's and pretty uncormfortable.

    They usually have good service, good food and prices. It is a Sports Bar type of vibe. Great stop fir lunch

  • June 6, 2026

    Terrible customer service everyone wants to talk not listen no one claims their mistakes completely clueless where I get my refund. I call the resturant they send me to call center charge me and lose my order after i verify store location by phone # and address. To get refund I have to call center again and then call the store my order got sent too to get my refund. What the hell terrible service everyone is nothing I can do. I will never go to this orlando ale house again. Terrible management

    "Love this place! Miller's Ale House has great food, awesome drink specials, and a lively atmosphere that makes it perfect for hanging out with friends or catching a game. Service is always on point. Definitely coming back!"

    If I could give 0 stars I would. I am absolutely disgusted by the negligence and lack of humanity shown at Miller’s Ale House. An 87 year old woman slipped on their extremely slippery floor, fell, and cracked her head open. She was lying in a pool of blood, and not a single employee or manager immediately came to assist or call EMS. The only people helping were our table and another family nearby. We had to demand that the manager bring napkins while WE were the ones calling EMS ourselves. Even during this traumatic situation, management seemed more concerned about the dining experience of surrounding tables than checking on the elderly woman who was seriously injured or the people trying to help her. The complete lack of urgency, compassion, accountability, and basic human decency was shocking. No establishment should ever handle a medical emergency this way. I truly hope corporate addresses the negligence and trains their staff on how to respond appropriately when someone is seriously injured on their property

    In a booth, in the corner in semi dark with your affectionate one over a pint as she sips her favorite drink with dreamy eyes and both have a Caribbean still meal..and you don't have to worry about the price. Been going to the varing alehouses houses for over 20 yeats. Love it.

    Wow!! Amazing!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 1 million Stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stopped in for a late lunch with hubby. Around 1:30 place busy not over crowded. Seated immediately by Michelle Bright beautiful smile and warm welcome. Our drink's arrived in couple minutes. We ordered two ribeye steaks one with Green beans and broccoli. One with green beans and fries. Omg 😋😋😋😋the steak was cooked to absolute perfection seasoned perfectly so tender you could cut it with a fork you didn't even need a steak knife. Standing ovation and kiss the cook for Marvin 🥰🥰🥰🥰. definitely make sure Marvin's there when you order steak 😀 I know personally I'll be calling to make sure before I arrive at the restaurant 😀 Green beans so fresh I jokingly told Michelle and Will the manager that I was looking for a green bean bush in the back. Fries were the best I've ever had crisp on the outside tender on the inside Mr no carbs hubby🤣🤣 with the broccoli and the green beans picked all of my fries off my plate we had to order more fries they were that delicious. From start to finish the entire experience was fabulous thank you so much!!!! Thank you Michelle thank you Marvin thank you Will you made a lunch date with my hubby very very memorable I will definitely be back!
