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.

Great breakfast spot

by lizzysreviews at Citysearch

I really like this place for breakfast. The menu is pretty big and everything I have had on it has been good. The place can get busy so I recommend going before 10am on the weekends if you go for brunch.

  • Pros: great food, good quality
  • Cons: some of the waitstaff, busy, long wait
1 Star Rating: Poor

Dirty Dining

by pdxfreckles at Citysearch

Don't sit by the windows and look at the gap between the floor and the window. You can find food there from 1940. Gross. I ordered the waffle and got a soggy toaster waffle with sour whipped cream. They did take it away, but I declined a replacement. For obvious reasons. And after looking at the floor . . . .

  • Pros: Nice waitstaff (when they get to you)
  • Cons: Used to have good food

Would Skip This Place

by Rally200 at Citysearch

Had the eggs benedict which were overcooked and the ham tasted like cheap lunch meat. My wife had the french toast which were made of two thin pieces of sourdough.

Service was good. Place was clean. Prices were reasonable. Just average to below average food.

  • Pros: Good Service
  • Cons: Bland Food, Small Portions
