The appetizer with the mixed seafood and crostini was so delicious. The roast chicken and chicken parm were also a big hit. The branzino was good, but didn't love their salsa verde (which is one of our favorites). We loved the menu and want to try other options and will definitely go back.

Second trip to Milton's. We loved our hearts of palm salad and the three of us easily split the eggplant parmesan. However (once again) the background music was an instrumental, bass-heavy techno-pop sound that was so disrupting. The ambience of Milton's is delightful and a bit retro. I don't know why they can't mix it up a bit with tunes that are more in keeping the Milton's vibe. In a small and cozy space, it does make a difference!

The food was good- hearts of palm salad was divine and we loved splitting the chicken Parmesan. However the ambience music was awful. All this attention to a rather cool retro decor and some sort of euro junk was on sound system. Frank and Dean would have added a lot to the mix.

The food was delicious. Unlike so many other restaurants in Houston that overuse salt for enhancing flavor, Milton’s creates unique and flavorful dishes using a combination of wonderful spices. The service was top notch too. The music vibe was just ok, but the volume was perfect for ease of conversation.
