The food here was amazing and full of history! Mike and Loretta Lee the owner's were so welcoming and full of love to their patrons and their food! Nicky our server was so friendly and attentive. The restaurant has a welcoming ambiance with historical pictures on the wall! We had steak, ham and cheese sandwich, and the best cheesecake we have ever had! Definitely a must go if you are in Paola, Kansas. Pronounced Pay-Ole-La. Thank you to everyone at Milo's! Hopefully we get to come back one day. read more

I've been eating here for a long time, today was the last. I got a tenderloin tonight, they have changed their breading, the meat is paper-thin and sour tainted. Very disappointed....it's the worse I've gotten from them, they have gone down hill. I won't go back. Watch your food, when you pay these prices you want your food right. In the trash can. read more

In the past the customer service was happy and great., not today. We wanted to just drink a bee and go, however this really upset the lady behind the bar. read more

I don't know what has changed but the food has gone downhill. I had a steak that was so over charred and well done, I sent back and the didn't understand why. I ordered medium rare and it was past well. I had a Rachel sandwich with fries and it was all filled with grease, the fries were crispy and the bread on the Rachel was not grilled. Very disappointed, I use to love this place. read more

This is our second time eating here tonight and it was lovely. It is a small personal venue, intimate seating, well lit and comfortable. Good mixture of booths and tables. We were greeted and seated quickly. We had Loretta as our server both times and she is a great server. Fast, courteous, and always answers all questions quickly. I had the sirloin done medium. It is refreshing to get a steak that isn't slathered in tons of salty seasoning. Steak was seared nicely, juicy, and very tender. The breaded shrimp were fried to crispy perfection. The fries are real home cut potatoes. I love their ranch, nice and thick n creamy. My hubby got the pork chop dinner with the biggest baked potato I've ever seen at a restaurant... I don't know how he ate the whole thing. They do chilled glasses for some of their drinks which I appreciate very much. Can't think of a downside to either experience here and will be making it a regular dinner spot. read more

First time at this place and it was a very nice and clean place. Ordered the 14oz ribeye (medium) with cottage cheese and steamed broccoli. Steak had a great flavor,but was a thin steak. Because of this my medium was a well done, but didn't hurt the steaks tenderness. Cottage cheese was cottage cheese. Steamed Broccoli wasn't steam just warmed up. Waitress was great. Friendly and on her game. I would give the steak a 6.8 and over all would give this place an 7.8. Would go back again and try other foods. read more

Milo's Steakhouse - 14oz ribeye - Burgers Near Me - Paola, Kansas

I love a well seared, medium rare ribeye. Experience elsewhere has taught me that you cannot find a more delicious ribeye, even for more money than this home grown restaurant. The curly Q fries and ranch are homemad too...all for a reasonable price. Tin ceiling, great music. read more

A nice beer bar in historic building on the Square in Paola. Hamburgers are well executed juicy and first rate. They are also famous for large pork tenderloins. Nice service with attentive staff. A fair selection of domestic beer served in a cold frosty mug. Sad they didn't have mixed drink cocktails, or wine, but we got over it fairly fast. We had an appetizer of fried pickles and there's ketchup mustard salt and pepper on the table. It was easy to ask for other condiments. A good selection of side dishes mostly fried potatoes. read more

Milo's has been a "go to" place in Paola for awhile, but tonight might have become the deal breaker. A friend and I frequent Milo's quite often, but lately have been less enthused due to 1) a hike in prices and, 2) less than normal quality of the dishes. Tonight we decided to have a go again, and we're once again greatly disappointed. My friend ordered their patty melt and fries, and me, the steak tips and a baked potato. First of all both the steak tips and the patty melt came with camelized onions. However, the onion used was a red onion and everyone who has ever cooked knows, you can't caramelize a red onion because it turns to mush -- there's too much sugar in it. The onions were void of taste, except for the grease. In addition, my friend's hamburger was burnt to a charcoal crust on one side. To their credit, Milo's didn't charge her for the meal, but they also didn't offer to re-cook her anything and she basically had no dinner. I ate my baked potato which was good, but I couldn't eat but maybe 1/4 of the steak tips. They were swimming in grease! I don't understand why their burgers, steaks, and now even their steak tips are so laden with a thick oil that it's unappetizing and very, very unhealthy. Not only that, but many of the pieces contained fat, gristle, or both -- as if the steak tips were the discarded trimmings of their sirloin. Believe me, for $19, it shouldn't be swimming in grease, and it shouldn't be subordinate quality either. So, we probably won't go back to Milo's for quite a while, if ever. With prices as they are, I expect better quality, not less. Sorry Milo's. read more

Prime rib is the best I've ever had. The waitresses are nice but the female owner isn't friendly. It's located on the square so it's a great space. read more

Great service. We got the Ribeye and the steak tips. Both were good and reasonably priced but the hit of the meal was the blue cheese dressing...sooo good! read more

As a proud meat eating American, I pride myself on the ability to taste the difference between a juicy steak and a flavorless slab of beef jerky. Unfortunately for Milo's, they dress up a once beautiful piece of meat into a something my grandpa would have worn as a boot. When I asked the server how the steaks were at Milo's, she snarked, "this is a steakhouse..." Well, I wouldn't advertise as such with this burnt piece of meat. The salads came first. This was red flag 3 or 4, but I felt like they went down to the local price chopper to get a few bags of premix salad. On a side note, the cherry tomatoes were delicious, but could not overcome the generic premade salad taste. A few minutes later, the steaks came. My wife ordered the sirloin and I settled on a strip steak. Our medium steaks were darker than the Aaron Rodgers darkness retreat this off season. It's like they went to sear the steak left for a smoke break and forgot to come back. Not only did our hockey pucks last as long as a rawhide in a small dogs mouth, they lacked any seasoning. I rarely use sauce on my steak but even a bath of Heinz 57 couldn't save this meal. My wife and I paid our bill and went to Applebees. read more

Service was good but food was not. Met friends there for lunch. I had salmon, very fishy. Tasted old. My friends had shrimp which was mushy. Tasted like it'd been frozen too long and thawed in microwave. read more

Was very disappointed, my baked potato tasted like it was made yesterday. And they wouldn't grill my prime rib, we will never eat there again. read more

I wanted to be optimistic about this "steakhouse" before trying to for the first time with my husband. We never get date nights without the kids, but had the opportunity to get two hours alone so this was close by and we like steak. I noticed that they seemed short staffed when we arrived. It was half capacity but there was a short wait for them to get caught up according to the hostess. My husband and I both ordered steaks; his medium well and mine medium. My husband did ask the server before hand "how are the steaks?" She replied well we are a steakhouse.....hmmm that should be a red flag when they don't answer with a direct reply. The food came out surprisingly quick...odd when you order steak even if it is medium. I can best describe my steak as unseasoned shoe leather....sadly my "medium" sirloin steak was very well done and not flavorful at all.....I would have eaten the whole thing had it at least been seasoned....but three bites took me 10 minutes to chew and even the generous amount of Heinz 57 could not hide the zero amount of flavor that steak was lacking. I had honestly wished I had my dental floss on hand because the steak was lodged between my teeth. The loaded baked potato was okay, generous on the cheese but lukewarm. The server stopped by once to see if we needed anything but she was obviously very busy and it's not her fault the food was below sub par. The ambiance was nice other than the stressed rush feeling from the servers. They had it decorated it fun Halloween decor and the restaurant was located in a nice location on the downtown square. read more

I had to return a grilled cheese sandwich because the cheese was not melted. It was basically 2 pieces of cheese on toasted bread. I asked if they could put it back on the grill or microwave it and it came back to me just the same. C'mon. it's a grilled cheese sandwich! Never again. read more

Great food, great service! It was our first time eating there and we'll definitely be back.

Just the kind of food you'd expect- never had anything bad here. This is my go to spot for burgers!
