    Blackened chicken Caesar Salad
    Beth K.

    Great food and great service! We had the Caesar salad, Farmers Daughter, Burger, Steak salad, and more. All sooo good!!!

    My sister had a specialty dental appointment and while there Dr. Wayne Parks DDS recommended we tatty it out because they have great biscuits. The establishment is light and airy with live plants aplenty and ample out four and indoor seating. The bathrooms are universal so each commode is contained in its own water closet. It would be get if more restaurants offered this type of facilities. The food was great. I ordered a Golden Hour cocktail which was amazing. Definitely has a southern vibe to the drinks and food. I hadn't eaten at all so ordered the Buddy Holly (eggs, potatoes, biscuit, and voice of meat). I'm a bacon girlie so went with the thick sliced bacon. Everything was fresh hot and delicious. Biscuit came with sourgum butter and a strawberry syrup. I'm not a fan of strawberries but added the butter to every morsel of the biscuit. Biscuit was dense without being too heavy. Potato's were lightly seasoned with a perfect crisp to them. Our server Courtney was attentive and was the person who mixed our drinks. It was a great Monday Brunch spot!

    Crispy brussel sprouts! If they are on the menu, I order them. These are in the top three that I've ever had.

    I happened to be in Plano over the weekend for a conference so since I came this far, I hopped on a bus and scheduled myself for less than 24 hours in Waco! I didn't realize that the #Magnolia properties are closed on Sunday, so I found other fun ways to get the Waco hospitality from the moment I arrived. I was actually glad that I got to see the town for what it is a few days before people traveled there from all over for #Silobration. I look forward to returning to Waco for a longer visit! Milo was recommended to me by at least three different people: my Air B-n-b host, the Waco Tours guide, and some fellow tourists in from another state as well. I walked there from my Air b-n-b and was super excited to find a place where people hang out with friends for a good meal and conversations! I was dining alone and chose a spot on the patio. There was a football game on if you wanted it, but otherwise it was relaxing and a comfortable temperature for October. Now the first thing I always try if on the menu are Brussels sprouts! It was a great appetizer because it is solid yet still light and crispy. The vinaigrette was subtle but delicious. I loved the various toppings sprinkled on top and learned something new in my pepper game. Maybe I've had them before being from CA but I didn't know there was a Fresno chile pepper. The flavor was a sweet heat and great surprise with the crispy shallots and garlic. When traveling, I want to try local wine or beer so I ordered the Brotherwell Brewing Act of Faith Belgian style tripel. The herbal fruity flavors went really well with the sprouts and my main dish. For dinner I ordered the blackened salmon and grits. I love grits but usually for breakfast. It was a rare treat to try a more savory flavor. The salmon, grits, and the delicious veggies and herbs on top all bring their own distinct flavors and textures that also complement each other well. Each bite made my mouth so happy! My server was super friendly and attentive and did an awesome job in her first week. I would love to go to The Brotherwell Brewery Taproom next visit, then return to Milo!

    Artichoke and Kale Dip
    Lauren B.

    Milo All Day I love you!! I was in Waco 3 years ago and remembered my amazing meal at Milo. Flash forward to tonight, and it was just as amazing as I remembered! The interior is gorgeous. So bright, abstract, and greenhouse inspired. The restaurant is spacious and beautiful. Service was pretty good! Everything came out fast and our server had helpful opinions on menu items when asked! We ordered two appetizers - the artichoke and kale dip and brussels to start. They were both just fabulous and so flavorful. The brussels are very complex with slight heat, and they are cooked very well. The portion sizes were perfect for an appetizer as well. I ordered The Salad and my boyfriend ordered the mad burger. My salad was so good - it was perfect and enjoyable through every bite. The burger was good too, and I especially enjoyed the herbed fries with the jalapeno ranch. I tried two cocktails, the first being the strawberries and cream clarified seasonal cocktail. It was the cocktail of my dreams - fruity with a gorgeous vanilla note. The second drink I got was a spritz that was citrus-forward, botanical, and bitter. I really enjoyed it as well. I will be returning and honestly Milo is probably in my top 10 list of restaurants of all time. I would recommend it to anyone!

    Breakfast Sando
    Amber W.

    Had a nice experience at Milo after a 5k. Breakfast Sando was nice and hearty. The avocado and aioli they put on it give a wonderful flavor. The home fries were delicious as well. My friend really enjoyed her Buddy Holly plate and her espresso martini. The inside was nice and clean, service was fine.

    Sweet potato mole
    Jill C.

    Still amazing place - I prefer the brunch menu more than dinner. We sat outside which was very hot but it made it so you could actually hear what other people were saying. The inside has terrible acoustics and feels like a school cafeteria. I got a special order - Nashville hot fried chicken on salad. Very tasty - not super spicy but nice. Pimiento cheese spread and crackers always a hit. Service was friendly and kind. Wonderful spot in Waco.

    The lemon herb chicken bowl
    Kimberly C.

    As a local, I love the esthetics of this place! It's so beautiful! The cornbread, is a must, so good! This is a shareable dish, even though you might not want to share. I enjoyed a hot tea as well. This is a great place to meet some out of town friends. They ordered the Brussel sprouts and raved about them. They said they were delicious. We ordered the Buddy Holly, which was another good one and ordered the lemon herb chicken bowl. It was a beautiful presentation but more on the bland side. The sweet potatoes probably made the entire dish better. The service was good. Didn't have a lot of interaction with the server but not in a horrible way. We enjoyed our time there and left in a timely manner.

    I thought Milo was nicely decorated especially with all the plants. My server was super kind and helpful. The mezcal cocktail I had was delicious. I ordered the chicken paillard and it was delightful. The chicken was nicely seasoned and I really liked the leek salsa.

    Peach ricotta toast with candied bacon!
    Lisa S.

    If you aren't looking for something heavy then this is the dish to order! So delicious and the candied bacon omg I will recommend this place and dish to everyone! Wash it all down with a yummy pineapple mimosa! Magnificent!!!

    Migas with Chorizo and added fried eggs on top.

    Found this gem on Yelp and decided to give it a try after reading the menu and reviews. SO glad we…read moredid! It's off the beaten path which is nice because we were able to find parking. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and directed to choose a table of our preference. The waitress quickly came over and grabbed our drink order while we looked at the menu. We placed our order and the waitress was very knowledgeable and able to answer our questions. She also informed us they work as a team so we can stop anyone when/if we need something. We started with the "Burning Bush" appetizer (crispy Brussel sprouts w/ lemon garlic aioli). YUM! They had just the right bite to them, and the glaze on them paired with the aioli was delicious! For our entrees we had the Golden Calf Burger w/ sweet potato fries and sriracha aioli and The Weight of Glory Sandwich w/ broccoli slaw. They were both incredibly flavorful and fresh! You can tell they locally source their ingredients and prepare them onsite. The portions are also plentiful, and we left with a takeout box. To round off lunch we tried the special mousse on the specials board (coffee flavored cheesecake mousse). It was so delightful we dug in before I could snap a pic. Just enough coffee flavor paired with chocolate sauce (not hersheys ). The big windows allow for a lot of natural light and lends to a welcoming and warm environment. We will for sure be back and bring others!

    I always swing by here for a fantastic burger in the way to Austin. Iove farm to table spots and…read moretheir golden calf burger while coleslaw was divine. I especially enjoyed how the herbed goat cheese mixed with the lemon aioli (aioli is garlic mayo so the garlic is redundant in the menu) and beef patty. That combo was deadly to me, oof Some nice cold coleslaw to compliment the hot burger was a nice mix. I still haven't forgotten how heavy their tomato soup is! So packed with flavor omg. Friendly + quick staff as always and gorgeous wooden seating.

    A great pit stop en route to Dallas…read more Came in hungry and left very happy. I got the daily quiche with fruit and was honestly shocked by how much fruit they give you. It came with this amazing poppyseed dip that made it even better. We also ordered the cheese poppers with jalapeño ranch and definitely underestimated them. They were crispy, curdy, and super addictive. The chicken fried steak was another win. Hand-breaded, flavorful, and covered in their homemade gravy. Straight-up comfort food. Dessert is a must. We got the banana pudding meringue and absolutely demolished it. It's said to be one of the owner's mother's recipes. The atmosphere has a clean 1950s vibe with retro decor and vintage car parts everywhere, which was pretty fun and different. Our server, Cindy, was super friendly and gave great recommendations. Overall, really solid experience. Would definitely come back.

The retro themed eatery with gas themed memorabilia is an eye pleaser. The meals are served in old hubcaps, just to keep you submerged in that classic ol' timeliness. Regular burger was delicious with a side car of their fried okra. Kids meals are a wow factor as they use those 3D cardboard replica boxes of cars. Ours now drives around Barbie dolls! Their hours can be a bit inconvenient if you don't plan accordingly to eat here (open 11AM-2PM). Don't let that stop you for adding them to your Waco vacation plans!
