    Carnitas Plate
    Ana B.

    Authentic Mexican food - not TexMex. Asada and carnitas were very flavorful. The flour tortillas are homemade. We loved the warm black bean dip they serve with chips. The dip has a bit of a kick but not too much - which is exactly the way I like it. April our waitress was very friendly and answered all our questions regarding the restaurant and the food! We went on a Saturday morning for an early lunch. The prices are very reasonable. We will definitely go back to try their dinner menu.

    Dined on the patio on a Thursday night. Service, food and drinks were all great. We had esquites (street corn), ceviche, sopecitos, and cochinita pibil. Portions were nice and the rice was very tasty. I had a beer and didn't try any mezcal, but my friends enjoyed theirs. Can't wait to come back!

    Our first time here. We went just before a concert at the Hippodrome (they share bathrooms). A small corner spot with a great selection at the bar and dinner menu. We had chicken enchiladas and chicken and beef combo fajitas. All were very tasty. There house salsa was really flavorful. Topped off with tres leches cake quick was really good. Staff was friendly and fast.

    Luis N the server was so awesome!!! GREAT ambiance and stellar location. The inside is smaller than you think, but the small size of space is redeemed by the hearty portions and non stop flow of beans. If you have the chance to try the ghost pepper chili oil concoction (macha salsa? -e kolb) MY HOLY HECK PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF UR TASTE BUDS DO IT!!!! It is a snack and a half, or, as ally might dispute, a snack and three quarters.

    Just what we were searching for in Waco, Texas! My wife and I came for the day to watch our daughter perform at McLane Stadium and stumbled across this amazing place nearby. We had some appetizers and our favorite drinks, tamarindo and hibiscus mezcal. We will definitely return if we find ourselves in town again!

    This place is fantastic!!! So fresh and delicious. Taco meat wasn't chewy or dry- it was so moist and fresh! Wow I was so blown away. Skinny marg was yummy- no mixes here! I just wish the marg was served up not in a tall....but that's my only issue with this place :) bean dip was yummy just a little runny. Great service! In super cute downtown Waco

    Trendy place for a downtown date night ! The mezcal and cocktails are really and unique. I had the $8 mezcalita blended and I was very impressed. They have indoor and outdoor seating with competent and quick staff. They give you chips and salsa with a black bean dip. The food is not the main reason to go-- more people go for the location and atmosphere and vibes. The food is not bad, just normal. Refried beans needed more salt. Nothing on the menu is extremely rare, but good quality, Overall, a great place to go with a loved one for a fun occasion or a group night out! I give it a Waco 3.5. Rounding up to 4.

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.

It was just enough since I cutting back, you may need regular portion for a big appetite. Overall it was decent. The food came out quickly and the price was good. I forgot to take pics.

That's why I was genuinely disappointed to find out that the chicken Caesar sandwich has been removed from the menu. It might seem like a small change, but for regular customers like me, that sandwich was a standout item and one of the main reasons I kept coming back. It had a great balance of flavor and felt like a reliable go-to every time. Taking it off the menu without a comparable replacement feels like a missed opportunity and, honestly, a bit frustrating. I completely understand that menus evolve and restaurants need to make changes, but it would mean a lot to see fan-favorite items like this either return or be replaced with something similar. Milo's still has a lot going for it, which is why this change stands out even more. Hoping this feedback is taken in the spirit it's intended--supportive, but coming from a very disappointed regular.

In particular the deviled eggs and Brussels sprouts caught my eye, unfortunately the latter was sold out so I went with the sweet potato Both dishes I had were really good! The candied bacon paired really nicely with the creamy deviled egg, the hot sauce vinaigrette didn't add too much flavor, but honestly adding a significant amount of heat would've probably taken away from an already very tasty dish. The baked sweet potato on the other hand had a nice dose of heat from the Calabrian honey vinaigrette, the sweet heat combo worked really, I'm surprised I'd never come across a spicy sweet potato dish before, but I'll definitely have my eye out for it in the future Overall I had a very good experience and will definitely be back for future rest stop meals between Austin and Dallas!
