    Kahlua cake
    Caroline C.

    First time here. Sat on the patio and the food was delicious. Ordered the brussels sprouts, pork and celery yakitori, and the pork tenderloin. Everything was absolutely DELICIOUS and we licked every plate clean. This place is a hidden gem!. Finishing with kahlua cake.

    Loved the Brussels Sprouts, salmon wraps, and spicy jalepenio dip. The suggestion from Matt on bold wine was spot on too. Solid Possessor red at a very good value. We will be back soon!

    Very friendly bartenders. This is a small cozy atmosphere with outdoor patio. It's in a plaza with all kinds of shops. Wine selection is ok. I didn't see much red or white that I haven't seen elsewhere. The pours are those 6 oz pours for $7-15. I personally think the prices are a little too high. They also have some domestic beers and italian beers. If you are a craft beer person like me, you won't like their beer selection. The food menu changes daily and they do post it on their website. I haven't eaten anything there yet but they do have burger nights on Thursdays. Recommend for small groups or as a date night then on to somewhere else

    Best fried artichoke ever

    Very warm, friendly service as soon as we walked in the bar. Inviting, casual atmosphere and super comfy patio. The Crispy Fried Artichokes will change your life!! Good wine list, reasonable prices. We'll definitely be back

    Great ambiance. Comfortable vibe.

You can come for appetizers and wine tasting or dinner and wine by the bottle. Seating includes a covered front and back porch. Inside there's a long bar with plenty of bar seating, along with tall two-tops and standard four top tables. For a large party you been rent out half the space or all of the space. The service was like being waited on by friends. They were so helpful in explaining everything and, if you're inclined, they're happy to talk about what they've built here together -- Mother, Son, and Daughter-in-Law, all working in harmony to make this place sing. We've tried a number is wines and dishes get. The Pintxos are amazing. The Tapas are totally on point with our favorite being the Albondigas meatballs. And the charcuterie featured really high quality chorizo, Serrano ham, Manchego and Mahon cheeses, almonds, grapes and an amazing quince jelly that's firmer than a standard jelly and quite delicious. Well be back. And we'll bring friends :-)

We started with the pan-roasted romanesco, which was perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The bread service with compound butter was a standout on its own: simple, but done at such a high level that it set the tone for the entire meal. We grabbed seats at the bar, which ended up being a great move. The atmosphere was lively but relaxed, and we enjoyed several glasses from their excellent wine selection. Our bar tender was knowledgeable, welcoming, and she made the whole experience feel elevated without being pretentious. For entrees, my wife ordered the chicken and fries, crispy, juicy, and incredibly satisfying. I went with Blaine's burger, and I don't say this lightly: it's hands down one of the top three burgers of my life. Perfectly cooked, beautifully balanced, and unforgettable. Blaine's is doing something special. If you're in Waco and looking for a place that nails both food and experience, this is it. We'll be back soon.

    Blaine's is a beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere. The music provided by Tram Kelly and…read morePat McKee was outstanding and added significantly to the evening. Presentation of the dishes was attractive and thoughtful, and we were pleased with our wine selections. We started by sharing the poblano corn chowder. Unfortunately, the dominant impression was salt. The soup was more of a brown, creamy sauce with chicken and corn than the aromatic, herb-forward poblano chowder I was expecting. Beyond the saltiness, there wasn't much depth or complexity of flavor. For entrées, we ordered the steak and the ahi tuna tomahawk. Both were visually impressive, but once again the overwhelming characteristic was salt. The tuna may have had a hint of tarragon, but it was difficult to appreciate much else. The steak was exceedingly salty--surprisingly so, even for someone who is not shy about using salt. Service was courteous but somewhat inattentive and slower than expected. At this price point, I would have hoped for more attentive service and a broader range of flavors rather than repeated assaults on the sodium receptors. One final curiosity: water was served in what appeared to be small jelly jars, which felt a bit odd given the otherwise upscale presentation. Overall, Blaine's gets good marks for ambiance, presentation, wine, and especially the live music. Unfortunately, the kitchen's heavy-handed use of salt overshadowed much of the meal. With more restraint in seasoning and a bit more attention to service, this could be an exceptional dining experience.

Sorryhardto call it a classic gastropub. On another level, it's sort of a new American cafe, and in this particular vein of thinking, it certainly hits a lot of the high notes. The food is well-selected, with a smattering of farm-to-table plates, various proteins, and the classic pub selection of small bites. I really like the outdoor patio. The swamp coolers help to make the area hospitable even in the middle of the summer. I sat outside by myself, not too far from one of those blasting humidifiers, and enjoyed a nice cold beer and a delicious burger. My server was incredibly kind and very attentive. I think, in the long run, what I would most consider Milo to be is a restaurant that has a bar, that serves primarily farm-to-table delicious food. Yeah, that-seems to sum-it all-up. Oh, and the service is excellent.

When the other hostess asked us if we wanted to sit outside, we politely declined. After that, the hostess's attitude toward us noticeably changed. I overheard her telling the other hostess that we could "go somewhere else." I found this very disrespectful and unprofessional. We completely understood the wait time and were willing to wait; we simply preferred to sit inside. Customers should not be made to feel unwelcome simply because they decline outdoor seating. I hope management addresses this, because the food and overall service were good, but this interaction negatively affected our experience.

We also loved having a coffee shop and ice cream shop in the same space, making dessert easy to enjoy after the meal.

We ordered the 20" for two and it was more than enough for two guys that can eat a lot. The slices are huge so if you want more slices you can ask for a double cut and it'll make the pizza go even further for a table of more people. The pizza is extra hot when it comes out and oddly it tastes better as the cheese cools and solidifies. It isn't bad when you get it. It gets BETTER. Ranch is free which is not the norm these days so dip away! Service was fast and efficient even tho they were busy. Whole pizzas so take about 30 minutes but slices are always available to purchase. My only suggestion to the kitchen is to have all good timed to come out at the same time. We had someone with us that ordered pasta that came out about 15 minutes before the pizza came out and we told to eat before their food got cold.
