    It was a very last minute reservation but a lovely experience. The space is really nice, not too loud. The tables felt a little close to each other but overall it felt clean and cozy. The food was really good - the bread the bring to the table is so good. My cocktail was also tasty - a lavender something. A nice little spot!

    The food was amazing. I had the squid ink with shrimp and my husband had the Berger. We also had oysters and clams from the raw bar. It was all delicious and better than expected. We’d love to come back.

    I am not saying this lightly. Unquestionably the best meal my husband and I ever had. We had four courses chosen off the regular menu accompanied by wine pairings explained by the sommelier, Matt, who loved his job. It was not unlike an interesting history lesson. Great food! I agree with my husband who said that they really know how to season. I have to add they know how to add an unexpected ingredient that made what would have been a mundane mushroom risotto pop. It was just the right, small amount of pickled mushrooms sprinkled on top. While the crabcake was huge, lump and traditionally prepared. Where it wasn’t required they didn’t over season or do anything just to do something new. Nothing seemed like an afterthought. Fine dining at its best. We are both looking forward to going back.

    We loved everything about Milo’s midtown! It had been over 10 years since we’ve been here & choose this for our friend who has never been in NYC. We arrived early & sat at the bar with great cocktails taking in the holiday cheer & bustle of the staff as they take from the fresh stock of Mediterranean fish chosen by their customers. We had the tomato salad & calamari to start. Not a huge fan of calamari but this was perfect. Lavraki, our main meal, was intensely flavorful with some grilled mixed vegetables. We topped off the meal with decadent desserts & shared some baclava & galaktoboureko.
