In Short
This is not the kind of breakfast joint where you roll out of bed and stroll in with the newspaper. Milo's is a casual, smart cafe with leather seating, wood floors and contemporary decor. The fare exceeds the typical greasy-spoon breakfast joint. The servings are heartburn-large and inspired. Eggs Benedict is tucked with filet mignon, and Dungeness crab cakes are overflowing with hollandaise sauce. Even scrambled eggs are made fancy with spinach and feta.

We've eaten at Milo's several times over the last 14 months and the consistency of the food is all over the place. We've had some truly delicious meals here and on other occasions it's been awful. Most recently two of us had lunch here and ordered completely different things (a hamburger, a vegetarian sandwich) and neither of them tasted of anything, completely blah. We've also had several dinners here where the meat will be barely warmed through yet the vegetables burnt to a crisp. I hope they get their act together because when the food is on it is so good.

This place is awesome! I had seen it on one of the city search emails before, and had saved it in my favorites. We decided to do take out for an office lunch, and it was so great. Mouth watering great! We got the seafood linguini, seafood de jour and the mediterraean pasta. All were fantastic. The only con is the restaurant is REALLY busy, but when it's this good what do you expect?
