Cafe Milano, San Antonio, Texas, Italian Restaurant Details

Food:

The food here is outstanding. It's a little hole in the wall, but don't be fooled. This is a phenomenal restaurant. Great service, and delicious authentic Italian food. Do yourself a favor & give this place a try. You won't be sorry.

Food:

I eat here 3 times a day: breakfast, dinner, and supper. It is the best. I live here. I work here. I sleep here. I AM Cafe Milano. Heavily recommend.

Food:

Since I started coming to this place about 3 years back, each time is so delicous! Even some restaurants that fall short in their "TO GO" plates .. this one does not!.. The to go is just as awesome as if you would dine in!. Everyone has always treated me so politely including the owner who is very friendly and respectful!. I love the food its always fresh and the bread and butter is great!.. I love this place not expensive either for the quality.

Food:

The Milano's restaurants are still doing their thing after decades in the same locations. And their thing is the service of good Italian food in comfortable, aesthetically pleasing digs with consistently solid service.

We stopped in to have a late lunch on a whim as we had not been to this location for some time. The winter sun filtered in through the windows to bathe the interior with a warm halcyon glow as we entered; not too bright, not too dim. We were seated at a window table where we immediately began to anticipate the warm bread sticks that were always so good there and were not disappointed when they were finally served.

Dipping the bread into butter the color of egg yolk is a distinct pleasure for a hungry twosome and a great accompaniment to the tangy caesar salad we had ordered. Then, we were served tender (mostly) grilled chicken, fire-branded with charred jailbird-like stripes from the hot cooking grate that gave the meat a wonderful charred grill flavor. Gilding the lily is the lemon butter caper sauce with fresh basil for the chicken that one is wont to drench the accompanying pasta (which already has butter and garlic on it) with as well as dip the bread in it. Extra sauce please. Cholesterol be damned!

We left with butter oozing from every pore, but very satisfied with our lunch experience . . . again. This is one of those places that could easily become that quintessential little neighborhood Italian place (though it is actually pretty large inside) that you can always count on when you taste buds are telling your brain it's time to "Ciao" down.

Food:

I went this past Sunday with my family and I have to say it was such a pleasant experience. My waiter, Vanessa, was sweet. She made mine and my family's visit a good one. The food was quite nice to. Must stop by again sometime with my family.
