Legit brunch spot! Everything I had was delicious (I got the lunch plate which had a small salad, mini sandwich (turkey and Gruyère) and a small soup which was a vegetable minestrone. Ingredients were fresh and delicious. The salad dressing was great and the quality of the lettuce and tomatoes was top notch. Everyone at the table enjoyed what they got. Portions were decently sized and good for the price. Bottomless coffee was kept refilled. They have different mugs which was fun to see the designs including a Marilyn Monroe cat. Service was very attentive and they were chill about our party of 6 hanging out for a bit and talking since we were having a reunion. read more

The food was perfect. You can taste the love in every bite. Really Enjoyed the french toast, great cinnamon flavor. The chicken fried steak was fried to perfection and seasoned well. If you want a delicious brunch spot, stop on by. read more

Went here with some friends recently and had a decent time. The interior is pretty small, feels very cozy and staff were very nice and attentive. Food was served pretty quickly and coffee was always refilled. I got the Belgian waffle and it was okay. My friend got one of their lunch salads and the chicken in it was delicious, wish I got that!! One of my other friends tried the pancakes and liked them. Overall: decent brunch spot in Portland if you're not looking for anything fancy read more

The food was very lackluster and not worth the time or money sadly. The service was deplorable!

Walked down for an early lunch. Cozy and clean. Food was fresh and delicious. Service was friendly. Have a large assortment of food. Perfect spot to have lunch. It is a restaurant and I miss this type of table service. Feels old fashion but in a good way. read more

Elevated, but not overly foo-foo, breakfast fare. This new location is quaint with good service. I was tempted by the Breakfast Grilled Cheese then re-read my review from their Sherwood location. Instead, I opted for the simple egg on brioche. It comes with a side salad, one of the better values on the menu. I was disappointed to see Tabasco (you know, like from the '80s), but appreciated the homemade hot sauce. My partner had the steak and eggs. Decent, but not too memorable. The star of show was the seasonal watermelon drink. So good. Dig the table by the window. One of those places I'd come back to, but won't rush to do it. read more

Happened upon this spot after watching a TikTok. Had French Toast with lemon goat cheese and ham. Sounds odd but it was really great. I'm a chef at a local cafe and I plan to steal that lemon goat cheese idea. Went on a weekday so it was quiet. Service was gracious and friendly. I think I have found my new breakfast spot. read more

We stopped here on our way from the airport. It was open early so it was convenient. Parking is on the street. It's a good thing we got there early because it got crowded! It's a quaint place with amazing, personal service. The food is really good too! read more

Quick read: YES, COME HERE! We took a chance on this place when some unexpected family flew into town and wanted a good breakfast. This was the first spot open long enough for us to still squeeze one in. As soon as we walked in, we noticed a sign proudly supporting inclusion and justice. As a Mexican queer woman, seeing that right away felt genuinely welcoming. We grabbed a table, got our menus, and I immediately noticed the Community Meal option-where anyone can come in and get a meal, no questions asked, free of cost. Our server overheard us talking about it and was ready to offer it with complete respect. We were the only ones in this restaurant and they were okay with providing meals for free if we needed them. That alone speaks volumes about the kind of place this is. When ordering, we learned they don't even have a freezer everything is fresh and locally sourced. Big win. One of us ordered the French toast, and wow... I wish I had too. It was beautiful, topped with nuts for the perfect crunch, and made with brioche bread. PHENOMENAL. I had a bite (and got the leftovers), and it was just as amazing cold. I ordered the chorizo breakfast sandwich with a side of tots, and even the quality of the oil they fry with must be top-notch because those tots had the perfect crispy outside with soft, fluffy insides. My friend ordered the huevos rancheros, which I barely saw before he devoured it and immediately went into a happy food coma. We also had biscuits and gravy--slightly sweeter than usual, but still delicious. I'll absolutely be bringing friends here for future breakfast dates. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and come try their food! read more

Brand new place in the neighborhood, 1mo old. Found it by searching Yelp for breakfast places nearby. I just had the "Usual" which is two eggs, potatoes and meat. I also added a "Side Pancake". All it was pretty good plus the service was fantastic. It's a cute little place, so stop in sometime. I found the first cup of coffee sour, but when they refilled it, it tasted fine. p.s. At any restaurant, if you receive a sour coffee, just ask your server to replace it from a fresher batch. Most places are fine with that. read more

Food is tasty and staff is wonderful; all the reasons I go back with my friends. I love their local vibe and how they care about community.

Fried chicken, blt, sloppy southerner. Fried chicken was tender with biscuit and home fries. Homemade ranch. Gotta try their homemade BBQ sause with a smokey heat. BLT was full of bacon, juicy tomato and tender toast. Sloppy Southern tender chicken thigh with bread and butter pickles that added a hit of vinegar and heat? A must try is their homemade strawberry lemonade. A must try! read more

The fluffiest pancakes!!! Their Chicken and waffles were very tasty too! This is a hidden gem in NE! This is great for brunch and should be on everyone's radar! read more

We were on the hunt for a place that serves breakfast food "late" and we were lucky to find Fat Milo's! It's a small restaurant and service can be a but slow, but the coffee drinks and breakfast sandwiches hit the spot. We opted for salad (choice of breakfast potatoes or salad) and we loved the crunchy breadcrumbs sprinkled on top. There's not much for ambience but we just wanted something to get our day started well, in and out. The chorizo breakfast sandwich tasted great, but was difficult to eat because it's a giant link split lengthwise. You really need to chomp through the casing. Would be nice if the chorizo was cut up a bit more. Prices were decent for the food and it's definitely worth a repeat visit. read more

Great atmosphere! Engaging waitstaff! The sign on the door says everything : All are welcomed here!

Phenomenal food, service, and value. We're not from Portland so don't know if this spot is hidden but definitely a gem. Came for the good reviews and commitment to community and we will certainly be back next time we're in town. Cute retro-lite decor, featuring portraits of the best good dog, Milo. Comfortable seating inside and out, cozy but enough space. Generous portions, expertly flavored, not heavy on the palate. Breakfast potatoes were just the right crisp/tender balance. Hubs devoured the carnitas burrito even though he was full, Kiddo did similar damage to the sunrise burrito. I enjoyed the grilled breakfast sandwich. Thumbs up all around. read more

Went for brunch today and had fabulous food and friendly service. Clean, cozy, bright space. Had a waffle w/ a side of bacon, my friend had the vegetable hash. Both were delicious and perfectly cooked. We will come back for the biscuits! (my daughter wants to try the fish and chips) read more

Love this place. The friendly service. The large selection. And everything was tasty. My husband had the biscuits and gravy.. he took have of it home! I had the chicken and waffles. Yum. Crispy crispy crispy goodness. I ate it all...crazy because it was a lot. Our nephew had the fancy French toast, made of fluffy brioche. He practically licked the plate. I can't wait to bring friends! read more

It was such an amazing and personal experience. I have trouble with going to breakfast places around Portland because they just seem so "in and out" if that makes sense. Here it felt like I just went into those older breakfast/diner places that everyone loves because it's very nostalgic and simple. In the best way! Our server for the day was absolutely amazing! We are definitely going back more. I really want to try out their fries since they're thinner fries which is what I prefer!! I'm hoping to see eggs Benedict on their menu too in the future! Thanks Milo's! read more

Fat Milo's is a family owned business! The customer service was 100/10. Nick was our server and he was very personable, funny and attentive! The food was AMAZING. I got the 1/2 serving of Biscuits & Gravy and it was bigger than I thought. Also got the French toast and it was more than enough. The food presentation 10/10! Definitely recommend, will be coming back. You should too! read more

This place was awesome for breakfast. The breakfast choices were great. I really enjoyed the omelette and the atmosphere.

Very warm and attentive service. Double burger - unreal. So juicy and tender. Tots fried to perfection. Pancake stack- heavenly, fluffy and just the right amount of sweetness. Huevos Rancheros - I would say skip this one, the sauce is forgettable and the dish leaves you feeling meh. I'd be happy with a deeper more complex sauce. That said, there are plenty of items on the menu I have my eye on. The huevos rancheros are just not memorable compared to the other mighty winners. Great new place! read more

I've been to this place 3 times now. I get the pancakes every time. They are 3 for 3. I've come in around 10am each time. Kind of chilly/drafty if you're in the wrong seat. That would be My only complaint. Service is great, place is clean, food is very good. read more

Food and coffee is okay. Not bad but nothing crazy. Extremely smoky in the restaurant to the point where I had to leave before I could finish my food. They really need better ventilation. It's a cute spot and it'd be a very different experience if it just wasn't so smoky. read more

Great service & friendly vibe and happy to see in neighborhood! but Ordered the egg&cheese (savory), and was instead brought the breakfast grilled cheese (sweet and super heavy on cream cheese, and $16 instead of $11). Greens were also super heavy on the dressing and bread crumbs. If you check out Milo's, plan to come with a big appetite for rich food... would still likely go back for second try, but will definitely ask server to confirm what they heard me order next time. read more
