After visiting Waco Mammoth National Monument, one of my friends headed off toward more baseball…read morestadium adventures while another friend and I decided to grab breakfast before I flew back to reality later that evening. 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 might be hassle to get into the Silo to his this food truck, but do yourself a favor and find a way. We walked a block to get there and I'm so happy we did, and we're going to do it tomorrow too. So delightful.

The lady making the waffle was so kind and outgoing. She made me feel loved and appreciated even over just a few minutes of interacting. We chatted while she took my order and then I was told to come back in 10-12 minutes. This is longer than I've waited at Press Waffles (Plano location, which we also have in Waco), but I think you may get more waffle. I also love supporting local so this wasn't a big deal for me. I noticed that the strawberries she used were organic, so I believe she uses only the best/freshest ingredients. Baylor students get $1 off discount.

We called ahead around 1:40 PM to confirm if we could still be seated for lunch, and the person who…read moreanswered confirmed we could, reminding us they close at 3:00 PM. When we arrived at 2:20 PM, the hostess was actively on a personal FaceTime call right at the host stand. She bluntly told us they weren't seating any walk ins, and when we explained we had just called and been told to come in, she completely shifted the blame onto someone else instead of helping. Her dismissive response was, "That's weird because we don't ever answer the phone, maybe a manager that's not even here answered the phone or take away." We ended up having to order takeout instead. The employee working the takeout counter was wonderful, very kind, and even brought our food outside to us. The food itself was good, but between the hostess prioritizing a FaceTime call over guests, passing the buck, and showing zero hospitality, the experience was completely ruined. We won't be returning.

Had lunch today (9/13) at Milo in Waco. Disappointed. What has normally been good food and good…read moreservice, today the service and food were disappointing. Had Steak & Frites and asked for my waitress to have the steak cooked medium. It was brought to me rare. They put us at a corner table literally 8 feet from the kitchen which was very noisy and hard for my wife and I to have a conversation. Waitress, service and food were all unacceptable. Will not be going back! For as much as they charge for lunch or dinner, you would expect better quality food and service. My wife had the Tomato and Peach salad and she complained that the salad had too much pink peppercorns.

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.

Our server, Sara, was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. The hosts were friendly and genuinely seemed to care about making guests feel welcome something we didn't experience at Magnolia Table Cafe. Don't waste your money going somewhere just because of its name. If you want an outstanding breakfast with exceptional service, come to The Toasted Yolk Cafe. You'll leave with a full stomach and a smile!

I finally asked our waiter for an update, and he told us our order was still three tickets behind. At that point, we decided enough was enough and asked to cancel our food. To the staff's credit, we only paid for our drinks, but spending two hours waiting and leaving without ever eating is unacceptable. I understand restaurants get busy and mistakes happen, but regular updates and better communication would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we won't be returning.

When we looked up the menu, there were gluten-free options for my sister; which was an immediate draw. The dishes seemed really good, authentic, and something that we really wanted to try. When when we walked in, I was a little surprised, it didn't look like a higher based restaurant, it looked like a sports bar. It was indeed a sports bar, TVs with games of various types on with bar music playing. Neither one of those things was a bad thing. It just didn't fit the menu in my opinion. It was still inviting, but very much a sports bar not the restaurant that we expected. We sat down. They brought over two glasses of water and some menus. We looked over the menus. We had some questions, they answered all of our questions in anything that they couldn't answer. The waitress went back and asked the chef or the kitchen. She was very helpful. I ordered the chicken marsala with mushroom orzo and I substituted the green beans (yuck) with cream spinach. They brought me the green beans instead, but then took them off when I told them that was not what I ordered and brought me the cream spinach. My sister ordered one of the other chicken dishes. We also shared spinach, dip, and chips. The chicken marsala was fantastic. The spinach dip was also fantastic. The cream spinach tasted just like the dip so I did not finish it and brought it home for my son. We each ordered a drink. She had the cranberry mimosa and I had the pineapple mimosa. They were not true mimosas. They were not made with champagne. It was fruit juice and wine. They were not bad. they just weren't mimosas. Our waitress was super sweet, very accommodating, and when she realized that my dish was not what I had ordered, she quickly remedy the problem. I would recommend this particular restaurant. It's in a very cute area, there are shops in the same building and many things within walking distance. If you go, just realize that it's more of a sports bar setting and not a nice restaurant where you would dress up. We felt a little out of place, but it was still wonderful.

We've shared breakfast on both visits.

That's A LOT of food and you can see why we shared it. Our second visit we shared a jalapeño popper omelette and wheat toast. We also added a side of bacon. We were satisfied and happy with the service as well. We will return.
