"Millennium remains the destination for upscale, innovative vegan dishes in an equally elegant setting." - Dianne de Guzman, Clair Lorell, Paolo Bicchieri
"After more than 20 years in San Francisco, this vegan paradise relocated to Oakland, where it’s continuing to put out some of the most unique, delicious plant-based cuisine in the country. This rustic-chic space is laid-back and unfussy, with lots of dark wood, a patio for alfresco dining and a crowd of young families and professionals attended by welcoming servers. While dedicated vegans are sure to swoon, even hardcore carnivores might reconsider the lifestyle after a dose of Chef/owner Eric Tucker’s culinary creativity, showcased best on a five-course “Taste of Millennium” menu. Roasted pumpkin tamales with pumpkin seed pastor and cashew nut crema are knockouts, as are the crunchy king trumpet fritters with chili-persimmon jam." - Michelin Inspector

"My first stop was the Millenium, a pillar within the vegan restaurant scene. This establishment was founded in 1994, and chef Eric Tucker has been a part of the Millenium fancy since day one." - Shayna Conde
"Featuring some of the most unique plant-based dishes in the country, Bib Gourmand Millennium leans into the natural from the decor to the menu. Chef-owner Eric Tucker’s rustic-chic boîte brings distinctive flavors to vegan cuisine that even the truest carnivore could be converted." - Kevin Chau
