The Saucy Queen and Saucy King popped into Earls Kitchen + Bar for a little lunch and wine break after a serious shopping spree — and when I say serious, I mean the Queen had just spent a small fortune on cardigans. (Yes, I know, another one (actually 12) — but a Queen can never have too many cardys!) Naturally, a drink was required to help me recover from my spending.
We weren’t planning to eat, but once the wine started flowing and the Florida sunshine hit just right, we perched ourselves outside and decided food was non-negotiable.
I ordered the Cajun Blackened Chicken ($24.75) — Cajun chicken breast, confit garlic butter, warm potato salad, bacon, coleslaw, and kale oil — and let me tell you, 10/10 doesn’t even cover it. It was so flavorful, I’m genuinely craving it again while writing this review. I could eat it every single day of the week. In fact,… I think I’m child-free tonight. Jamie! Get your coat!
My King went for the Earls Classic Burger ($17.50) — ground chuck patty, tomato, red onion, lettuce, pickle, mayo, mustard, and toasted brioche bun. He told the waiter he didn’t want a sloppy burger, and oh, did they deliver! Perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and not a drip in sight. He polished it off like a man on a mission.
Ah, Millenia Mall — a true temple of luxury. It’s the kind of place where you accidentally wander into Louis Vuitton, sip lattes beside Gucci, and pretend you’re “just browsing” in Tiffany’s. Every corner sparkles with elegance, and somehow the Queen always leaves with a few more shopping bags than planned. It’s a gorgeous spot for a day out — and Earls fits right in with that vibe.
The menu is vast — from sushi and Asian classics to steaks and burgers — and everything we’ve tried has been top-notch. The energy is lively but relaxed, perfect for a midday escape or a classy dinner. We love sitting at the bar, chatting with the waiters (usually about British football — or “soccer,” as they insist on calling it).
10/10 — no complaints whatsoever. Our server was attentive, the food was piping hot, and the service was spot-on. The wine? French Rosé, of course — so you know the Queen was happy.
If you find yourself at Millenia Mall, make Earls your royal pit stop. Whether you’re drowning your shopping guilt or toasting your latest splurge, this is the place to do it.
If you’ve already tried Earls or fancy something a little different, there are plenty of fabulous spots right inside Millenia Mall. For a truly special meal, check out The Capital Grille — highly recommended and perfect for date nights or celebrations. If Italian is calling your name, Brio Italian Grille serves up warm, comforting classics that never disappoint. And while P.F. Chang’s isn’t our personal favorite (sorry, loves), it remains a popular choice with the mall crowd. Whatever your craving, Millenia Mall has a table waiting — and probably another shop ready to tempt you on the way out.
