Amazing pizza!!! I'm from nyc and the pizza is just as perfectly crunchy and tasty as L'industrie. Gourmet pizza even compared to most places in nyc. Good places in nyc also all have long lines soo it's normal quality = popular = gotta be a little patient Verrry much worth all the hype! read more

Went in for a slice which they burned. Went in for a pie to give them another shot. They said they weren't doing pies because of Labor Day. Wish them the best. read more

Outstanding customer service and food is incredible. Definitely worth the money. Me and my friend came to this place and as soon as we walk in we were greeted and we felt welcomed. They have a clean place and very professional read more

Fast and friendly service, delivering NY style pizza by the slice on the corner of Paseo Nuevo on the De La Guerra side x State Street. Very convenient snack after the movies or just when you're craving a bite of pizza; and it's great to see another Black owned business in a high traffic area of SB. The flavors and ingredients used are clearly high quality - the pepperoni was not too greasy compared to other places around town, and the presentation was very appetizing. We both felt our slices were on the crispier end (I did not enjoy the crust, because it was slightly burnt) but otherwise it was a perfect NY slice. read more

I have rarely been so disappointed in a restaurant much less in a pizza place. To be honest even bad pizza is still pizza, how can you go wrong? Today I found out. My wife had been hyping this place up for a while after reading about them on Instagram. We actually drove downtown to go to another pizza place that was celebrating their 30th anniversary but the line was ridiculous. Then my wife remembered Milios. So we walked the 3-4 blocks and were looking forward to the experience. The sample pies they had out all looked good so we ordered. 15-20 mins later we got our order and all I said was... what is this? Some of the smallest slices I've ever seen, on the edge of being burnt. I have had pizza everywhere. We went to New York and did a pizza crawl and I have never been served anything like this before. The only way to describe it is, three day old pizza that you left in the box and tried to revive in the toaster oven, only to forget and leave it in too long. Check out the pictures below. You should not be able to hold up a slice by the non crust side and have it stiff as a board. We tried to choke it down, because at $6 a slice we didn't feel like we should just leave it. After two bites my wife goes to get ranch to help lubricate it going down. That was mistake number two. At $1.50 per cup it was a dill / lemon atrocity that should trigger a Congressional investigation for fraud. We ate a few more bites but that was it. We threw the rest away and left bummed. We love local businesses and try our hardest, even downtown to support but come on guys, you have to meet us half way! As we left I looked at the table next to ours and theirs didn't look quite as burnt and the slices looked bigger. They were in to-go boxes so maybe that is the secret. We noticed the alcohol license application sign in the window as we left and my wife goes, "don't bother, you probably won't be around long enough." read more

I'm happy there is a new business at this location, but the customer service and food is disappointing so I will not be returning. Came on a Saturday afternoon, there was a good amount of customers, but it wasn't super busy. My partner and I came in and looked at the pizzas, then ended up waiting in line for so long we were about to leave. There was one cashier who seemed to have been one of the owners based off their IG. My partner and I were never greeted, but the owner told the other worker delivering slices to customers to help describe the pizza to us. I'm confused, you're the OWNER! There was one party in front of us in line, they ended up striking up conversation with the cashier for a while. We watched this cashier fill a whole 40oz water bottle and not once did he ask if we were ready. Then another party came in and he started talking to them! Did they open this place just to have conversations with people and ignore every other customer? The location is not big, so I'm confused how the cashier did not notice that we were waiting to order. I had to step up right at the register to be acknowledged. Onto the food.. eek. Ordered a slice of the milio, vodka, and white pizza. The square pizza was probably my favorite, but the slices were like eating cardboard. Barely any flavor and the crust was burnt. I haven't had NYC pizza, but based off other reviews this is not it. I also don't understand why the wait is so long for slices. If I had to guess, if it were NY style, it would be grab and go, or maybe a 5 min wait tops? I wanted to give this place a chance, but oof I'm sorry the food AND customer service is not it. Vibes are off. Pass! read more

Santa Barbara just got a taste of NYC! Founded by hospitality veterans Kamil Jumale and Miles Robbins, Milio's is serving up authentic NYC-style slices made with fresh, organic artisan-milled flour, sourdough starter, and a 72-hour fermentation process. They also offer gluten-free pizza. Get this, apparently their dough is made with New York water! I don't know how they import water from NY here, but that's what makes this pizza even more special. The menu includes specialty pies, seasonal specials, mini garlic focaccia, and soft serve. My favorite is The Milio. It's topped with jalapenos and sausage making it spicy, but not too spicy where it makes your mouth burn. I also love the white pizza and pepperoni. There's no flimsy pizza here! It's perfectly crisp and that's exactly how I like it. Santa Barbara has a lot of pizza restaurants on State Street, but it's nice to see one that offers it by the slice. I would say this is my new favorite along with Gino's pizza. The owners themselves are making the pizzas and cranking them out as fast as they can keep up. The space is very tight and small. With a few bar like tables to stand and eat, but they also have round tables and chairs out in the Paseo Nuevo mall area. Expect to wait in line anywhere from 10 - 15 minutes until the hype dies down. Overall, it's nice to see a black-owned business on State Street and I will be paying them many visits. read more

After seeing Milio's on Instagram, I made the intention of coming as soon as I could! On a random weekday afternoon, I was able to come by around 2pm. I only waited behind one person before ordering. I opted for the spicy pizza slice. After a few minutes, my slice was ready to go. Whilst walking down the street, I dug in. It was sooo delicious. The crust was crispy and the flavors were really well balanced. The burrata on top was truly the cherry on top of the slice. Overall, very delicious! I'd definitely like to come back and try more flavors. I'd recommend trying them out!! read more

Pricy but tasty. However, service really slow and sometimes they forgot your order. If you want to try their pizza, they have crispy crusts style and the tomato sauces are delicious. But you can find the same quality of pizza for cheaper price somewhere else read more

Yes yes yes! Tried a slice of cheese and white. Both delicious, crispy, and cheesy. But have to say the white is top tier, has a slight sweetness when you bite into it, and love the burrata on top. I would love to see an expansion of the menu in the future, maybe some mushrooms or pineapple. But I'll certainly be back. read more

New pizza place located in paseo Nuevo. Come for a slice stay for people watching. The service was ok and I was disappointed that I got my slice practically burnt. I could not taste it what flavors the pizza had. I am willing to give it another try as they just opened and are ironing out the kinks. Most seating is outside and more standing room inside. read more

This place is everything! $6 for a slice of pizza, I tried the Milio I believe. SO GOOD! It might have been better than several places I tried in NYC. This pizza wasn't floppy at all, perfectly crispy all throughout. The vodka sauce with the jalapeño and pancetta was *chefs kiss* amazing. I did see that they had soft serve ice cream and slushies. I'd 1000% go back! The aesthetic inside was SO cute! The vibe is nice but it was a little hot inside. Overall it's great, 10/10. read more

So happy there's a new pizza place in town! If you're looking for a New York Slice, this is the place. Service was great They are new & I am looking forward to welcoming them to the neighborhood read more

Best slice I've had in years! Felt like I was back in New York. The soft serve is delicious too!

The elite yelpers are def getting paid to write 5 star reviews. I DM'd these guys on IG to give honest feedback and not just review them. They saw it but didn't even say thanks or anything. I am a real NY Italian that grew up on Long Island. This is NOT NY pizza. I have screenshots of my IG DM. I feel like I was fair. Complimented the ingredients but if your supposed NY pizza doesn't convince NYers of it's authenticity, they maybe learn from the feedback read more

Although this is opening weekend, Chefs Kamil and Milo do not compromise on the quality and taste. Truly appreciate that they offer slices of every pizza option to get a taste of their pizza offerings. My favorite is the Milio! The pizza is worth the wait. Please give them some grace and patience as it is opening month. Their team is doing a great job! Chefs Kamil and Milo take the time to greet and welcome as many guests as they can while running front and back of the house. Love the energy and vibe they bring. Interior is clean and organized. Outside has comfortable patio chairs and tables for seating. read more

Happy there's a new pizza spot in town! The pizza was definitely good quality. I was a little surprised by the price. It was $20 for two slices, two small sides of ranch, and a water. For two people, that adds up pretty quickly. The quality is there but personally, I don't think it's quite good enough to justify that price. I'd probably go back if the prices were a little more reasonable, but $20 for two slices is a bit steep for me. read more

My wife and I stopped by Milio's Pizza on State Street to check it out since they recently opened. We tried a couple different slices, including the cheese and the Margherita. The Margherita was delicious and definitely our favorite. The cheese pizza was good, but it was way too salty for my taste. Hopefully they cut back on the salt a little because otherwise I think they have a really good thing going. Overall, it's a nice new addition to State Street and definitely worth giving a shot. I'd go back for the Margherita for sure. Recommend checking them out! read more

Milios' pizza! Incredible! The crust! The sauce! The cheese! The seasoning! All perfection! Well worth the wait! read more

Very disappointing. Was expecting more based on the advertising. The sauce was flavorless and bland and the cheese had a synthetic flavor. Definitely will not order again. And this is coming from a seasoned East Coaster who knows their 'New York style' pizza read more

Great thin crust pizza. Outdoor seating. The pepperoni with ranch and honey was great! Lemonade yummy too and super nice staff. Congrats on opening! read more

Milio’s Pizza - Cheese and pepperoni pizza with lemonade - Pizza Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

The food is good, but unfortunately the service hasn't been. The lady taking orders always seems to have an attitude and rarely cracks a smile. I was waiting for my pizza, which usually takes longer than expected, and a few people who were also waiting asked for cups of water. I decided to ask for one too, and she gave me a side-eye and smirk, almost like I was annoying her because a group of guys had just asked for water too. I get that she had already handed out a bunch of cups, but that really shouldn't be the customer's problem. The owner, Milo, was there as well and honestly didn't seem very happy to be there either. No smile, no "welcome in," or really any acknowledgment of the customers. He was just walking in and out of the shop looking grumpy. It's a shame because the food itself is good, but the overall attitude and service definitely take away from the experience. A little friendliness goes a long way. read more

I was happy for this place to open. SB needs another pizza by the slice option downtown. Service was friendly and we got our slices about 5 minutes later at their tables at their nice seating area. The pizza tasted great although I wish there was a bit more cheese. My main issue is mostly value related. It's $6.50 for a slice of pepperoni that is simply too small. NY slices are probably twice as large and actually cheaper than here. Either reducing the price or making the slices larger would significantly improve this place. read more

Lucas is outstanding amazing customer service he made sure we felt at home in this establishment will be back

Pizza was yummy!! Service even better. We were able to go by for their last few slices of pizza for the evening. read more

With being only one week old, this pizza restaurant is doing great. There are always bumps in the road/learning curves for quite a little while and I hope everyone shows them grace. The staff was welcoming and attentive, the ambiance lovely(definitely feels like a bit of NY) and the pizza perfect for the style they are aiming for. The quality of the pizza is irrefutable and delicious...I had 4 slices and really shouldn't have but couldn't help it. Q Give these guys a chance, you won't regret it. read more

Great pizza for when you're craving that fast, thin crust, NY slice on the go or at the table outside watching people go by. Recently opened, they probably still have some kinks to work out. I'll get another slice next time I'm in town! read more

VERY excited to hear "New York Style" Pizza, so I went in and ordered 2 mushroom slices. "Sorry we don't have mushrooms"....OK..I'l have a slice of pepperoni. What I got was a slice sitting there for I don't know how long, which went in the oven. Then I got was a burnt bottom and edge crust, that cracked when I bent it in "V" shape. When I pointed it out to the 20 something lady, she said, and I'm quoting: "That's how our pizzas are served here" !!! The oven guy offered another slice not so burnt, but madam 20 something kept insisting there's nothing wrong with the slice ! I left saying "don't worry, I won't be back". 20 something needs to educated ..."the customer is always right". read more

The sourdough flavor on the crust was good and the ingredients seemed like high quality but that's about it. For a $7 slice I guess I shouldn't expect much but it was lacking in quantity of sauce, cheese, and toppings. The crust is also very one note it's hard and crunchy like a cracker entirely throughly. I enjoy a bit of soft chew in the end of the crust at least and there was none to be found. It also took 15-20 minutes to reheat a slice when there was no line. I can't imagine how long the wait is when there's a crowd. Plenty of people working just seemed like they haven't figured out a good system for expediting orders yet. Seems like there a lot of potential here but a lot of kinks to iron out. Wishing them the best of luck! read more

The worst pizza we ever had! No flavor in the sauce or the cheese! So totally overpriced for a subpar pizza! We should know. We are from the East Coast visiting in SB and this place totally failed us! read more

Pizza by the slice is pricey! Also the pizza by the slice are not consistent. Sometimes you'll get a decent piece and sometimes you'll get a small piece. You just never know. read more

Burnt square slice and mediocre cheese. Really not worth the price. Nice guy up front taking payment, the chef was clearly irritated though. Oh and the $6 soft serve comes in a baby sized cup lol read more

I try every new NY pizza place here, because there are so few good ones. Went in and I couldn't even get the server's attention at first. Eventually ordered two slices of pepperoni. Slices came out burnt. Not crispy. Burnt and crumbling like a cracker. Not exactly impressed with the experience. read more

This place was actually pretty good, the crust is kinda reminiscent of Roberta's from back in the day. It's expensive for a slice, but they grated a ton of fresh parm on my cheese slice so they aren't skimping on ingredients. Definitely one of the best Pizzas in SB. read more

Pizza is burnt, it's a chaos in there , they don't have control of customers where to wait and where to pick up. The tall Owners I'm assuming just rush past you in a disrespectful way and don't acknowledge you at all. read more

Great slices. Only four stars because we wish you could order a full pie before 4 p.m.

Had high hopes fpr this new biz but...way overpriced...slices small...crust was overcooked. Does not compare to St.Bibiana.

There was a lot of hype surrounding the opening of Milio's, and my coworker and I were excited to try it out. Our office is close so we should be returning, so I decided to start at the top and try a slice of the cheese. First, they stack (partially?) pre-cooked slices presumably to save time to finish cooking once ordered. My slice was crispy, yes, but when checking the underside I noticed several burnt spots. I did eat the entire slice with the exception of the crust, which was also burnt. Once finished, I decided they must have mistakenly given me a slice of the tomato, which is sauce topped with pecorino cheese, because there was not much cheese. And that burnt taste lingered a long while, even after having a fresh veggie salad and lots of water. In fairness, my coworker had a slice of the Milio's which she said was very spicy but she enjoyed it (and she is even more judgy than me). Also, the slices were neither uniform in size at all nor as large as the ones I had growing up back East and going to NYC a lot. I dislike giving negative reviews to new establishments, but do so in hopes that they will see this and take note. Should they figure out a model where they consistently serve slices that are fresh, uniform and crisp but not burnt, they have a ton of potential; otherwise, Santa Barbarans are fickle and picky and they will not last. read more

Excellent thin crust pie. Quick and easy to grab a slice. Will grab an entire pie next time.

Amazing slice, customer service was amazing and overall super fun to try. We came on a Sunday at 1pm and there was no line. We had a slice mix up but it was quickly fixed! Would definitely recommend! read more
