After visiting Waco Mammoth National Monument, one of my friends headed off toward more baseball…read morestadium adventures while another friend and I decided to grab breakfast before I flew back to reality later that evening. Thankfully, Yelp absolutely came through clutch (as it usually does) and led us to Our Breakfast Place. We intentionally tried to time things to beat the post-church crowd and I think we mostly succeeded... though there was still a little bit of a wait. Thankfully, this place is absolutely worth the wait! The restaurant was bustling and busy but still had a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. The menu was extensive with tons of tempting breakfast options, the prices were very reasonable to me, and the service was excellent from start to finish. Our waitress was so kind and friendly and even the women seated nearby struck up conversation with us while we waited for our food. It just had that warm, community-oriented breakfast spot vibe. I ordered the blueberry lemon pancakes which were a seasonal special and wow, they were fantastic. Sweet but not overly so, fluffy, flavorful, and the combo also came with an egg and I chose two slices of bacon. All delicious and certainly plenty filling. The coffee was strong too, which I greatly appreciated. All in all, this was a five-star breakfast experience and the kind of local spot I love discovering while traveling. If I'm ever back in Waco, I'd happily return.

Sorryhardto call it a classic gastropub. On another level, it's sort of a new American cafe, and in this particular vein of thinking, it certainly hits a lot of the high notes. The food is well-selected, with a smattering of farm-to-table plates, various proteins, and the classic pub selection of small bites. I really like the outdoor patio. The swamp coolers help to make the area hospitable even in the middle of the summer. I sat outside by myself, not too far from one of those blasting humidifiers, and enjoyed a nice cold beer and a delicious burger. My server was incredibly kind and very attentive. I think, in the long run, what I would most consider Milo to be is a restaurant that has a bar, that serves primarily farm-to-table delicious food. Yeah, that-seems to sum-it all-up. Oh, and the service is excellent.

Our server, Sara, was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. The hosts were friendly and genuinely seemed to care about making guests feel welcome something we didn't experience at Magnolia Table Cafe. Don't waste your money going somewhere just because of its name. If you want an outstanding breakfast with exceptional service, come to The Toasted Yolk Cafe. You'll leave with a full stomach and a smile!

My family and I had a very disappointing experience at The Toasted Yolk in Waco. We waited nearly…read moretwo hours for our food with very little communication from the staff. I finally asked our waiter for an update, and he told us our order was still three tickets behind. At that point, we decided enough was enough and asked to cancel our food. To the staff's credit, we only paid for our drinks, but spending two hours waiting and leaving without ever eating is unacceptable. I understand restaurants get busy and mistakes happen, but regular updates and better communication would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we won't be returning.

I eventually had to call someone over to bring my son a water. I won't be going there again! When servers know they are getting a forced, large tip they don't try very hard to please.

You don't see that very often, and it really says something about the people there. The food was brilliant as always, but honestly Hosanna was the highlight.

My husband had the TOB Breakfast. The homemade biscuit was amazing. My son ordered a flight of mimosas, which I'll be ordering next time. Everyone loved their meal. Considering we were a large party and knowing there was another large party in front of us, service was perfect. A little wait for the food, but again, that was expected and understandable. Our waitress made continuous rounds, keeping our glasses topped with our drinks, and keeping us informed of our food status. She was very calm and super friendly! Great job! Great service!
