I went to Milton's alone. Despite being short-staffed, I was able to get a seat at the bar quickly. The manager was working the bar as well as directing staff. He later apologized for me waiting for a menu and drinks, but actually the wait times were fine. Gave me time to decide what to order. I had seen an item in the on-line menu that was not on the printed menu--grits and rib meat--and was able to order that. The food was great. The grits were just right, not runny or dry. It was loaded with rib meat in a tangy barbecue sauce, with peppers. I got it topped with an optional fried egg. Milton's is casual. Groups were having happy conversations. A woman walked in to a surprise birthday party for her and everyone sang Happy Birthday. But even with full tables, I could hear people talking to me clearly. They have a good beer and wine selection for a small restaurant. All in all, it was a good experience.

This place is fantastic--a cozy atmosphere with incredible food. The best burger I've had in Minnesota! I ordered the California Burger, and it was amazing. I'm not the best at remembering to take pictures, but I just had to share how good it was. The service was excellent. I went with my husband, and even though the place was busy and short-staffed, the team didn't miss a beat. We felt well taken care of! Special shoutout to Giovani, who assisted us.

The food is delicious. The Milton's Cobb salad, the ribeye minis, and the salmon are all very good. Macaroni and cheese was very cheese however, not a lot of flavor.

The food was outstanding. We had the Cobb salad with French onion soup and the tomato bisque. Flavors were perfect and proportions were great! Definitely will be back here! Service was wonderful!

Milton's holds a special place in my heart--it's a local, progressive, and multigenerational family business that my senior mom and dad discovered years ago. They loved it, and I'm so glad we went back recently--this time, our first visit without Dad since he passed. The unpretentious, artsy, rustic family-room vibe makes you feel instantly at home, while the diverse staff and customers show that everyone is welcome here. The food? Incredible. My baby back ribs were so tender they practically fell off the bone, with a BBQ sauce that tasted like it came straight from a home kitchen, not a bottle. And the mac and cheese? Creamy, tender, and full of cheesy flavor with a satisfying kick. Our server, Lily, was attentive yet quietly thoughtful, adding to the warmth of the experience. Support Milton's, and it may just become a beloved spot for you and your loved ones too.

Absolutely worth a stop. The Jerk chicken was super flavorful. Ribs were good with or without the sauce. Overall the menu has both familiar choices and more exciting ones! My apple & cheese salad was too largely chopped and with too little olive oil and chives to tie together; this was a big let down as I usually love this combo. The ambience is positive . Kind of a trendy bohoesk feel. Service was good, there was confusion between receiving the jerk chicken sandwich vs platter, it was easily fixed- though took a long time to rectify. I think this will become a 5 star establishment but they just aren't there yet.

I honestly didn't want to think too hard about choosing lunch for today, so I decided to check Yelp to see what was nearby. I stumbled across Milton's page and seeing that it was just around the block, I stopped by. After viewing their menu, the Jerk chicken Mac & Cheese caught my eye and my stomach sent stimuli to my brain which translated to me saying yes to the dish. I must say the inside is really cool and has a nice warm touch to it, which is very much appreciated when dining during the winters in MN. I was greeted very swiftly and one of the employees took my order. He gave me a very cool tip about the Mac and cheese, which was to add meat b/cuz it doesn't come with it. I chose chicken as my protein and to my dismay, the restaurant used chunks from a wholebone-in chicken instead of using just boneless chicken breast (which I very much appreciate). That small feature alone let me know that this meals was gonna be jam packed with flavor. I myself am Caribbean so my judgmental instincts were rampant and I had so many premature thoughts of what I might've been given. Safe to say it was absolutely delicious and I mean that with everything in me. I will say it doesn't give the utmost authentic Jamaican jerk flavor that I'm used to but it comes VERY VERY close and I am always open to variations in flavors and cooking styles. I assume it's homemade and for that reason I still give them a 5star. Nonetheless it blends well with the cheese, the pasta itself was cooked perfectly and portion size was phenomenal. I was so tempted to eat all of this in one sitting but I yielded to saving a bit of it for my girlfriend to have a bite as well... sharing is caring, ?right? Lol!! Overall a great experience and the food was served within a 5-10 minute timeframe after my order was taken. The parking is fair and I had no issues but please note that it's on the end of a block adjacent to a stop light so I imagine it could get busy there depending on when you decide to go.

I love the food and ambiance at Milton's. Our waitress was a little dull, would have been nice to see a smile or genuine interest on her face. Also was a little disappointed with everything they were out of as we were there on a Thursday at 5:15. No Sangria, No special entree that they had advertised for Thursday evening (pasta dish) and they were out of something else I had interest in but can't remember. So I ordered my stand by that has never let me down. Cedar plank Salmon and cheesy grits are out of this world! My girlfriend ordered a side dish of Kale and that was bursting with flavors!! Wish I could be giving them 5 star but they need to be better stocked and friendlier waitress.
