More information on Miller's Thumb

Miller's Thumb is a bustling neighborhood seafood eatery with personable service that reflects its casual style. Bright, happy colors surround you as you peruse the blackboard menu and there's a separate bar and a tiny outdoor dining area. The classics include Jambalaya and Yaki Soba (a stir-fry of Japanese noodles, chicken, prawn tails and cashews). Another must is the Penne Castoro Otto, with asparagus, prawns, dill, lemon juice, chili and cream. There's a small but varied wine list.
