Estiatorio Milos - Midtown New York

This is the original Milos, which has now become a fairly large high-end Greek chain with around 10 restaurants worldwide. Milos is one of the original power lunch spots for Greek cuisine. I've dined here a dozen times or so. They have a wonderful prefix lunch menu, and the service and atmosphere are always lively and fantastic. Along with Avra, Milos is the best Greek spot in Midtown Manhattan. Both great places to host lunch.

We recently dinned at Milos for our anniversary and had an excellent visit! We have dinned at Milos in Montreal but this was even better. The fish was fresh and tasted amazing. We had the Balada and it was nothing like we had ever tasted. So fresh and so moist. We will be visiting again next time we are in town.

Been several times and the experience is always the same: amazing. The freshest fish, flown in daily, combined with the freshest ingredients. The scallops, fried zucchini, salmon carpaccio, were all great at our recent visit. Dessert was the fruit plate (don’t laugh - it’s unlike anything you’ve seen) and greek yogurt with honey (also unlike any yogurt/honey I’ve ever eaten). We also had the yummy baklava. Service is attentive and friendly. It’s a perfect New York experience!

Hands down the best Greek food outside of Greece. I can never have another tomato unless it comes from Milo’s! The food is incredibly fresh and service is top notch. You’ll see that from the moment that they bring out fresh herbs and trim it for your olive oil and bread. I recommend the Greek salad, the eggplant and zucchini tower, and the grilled octopus

What can I possibly say that hasn’t been said 1000 times before about Milos? An absolutely incredible restaurant from beginning to end. The food is simple and impeccable and the technique is out of this world. Everything is perfection. The staff are professional and keep just the right amount of distance. The space is gorgeous and airy, but it does get crowded and loud as to be expected but again last night was one of the best meals I’ve had in years.

Wow! It had been some time, since I had such delicious grilled Greek seafood. Love the freshness, quality and taste of the seafood. I recommend the oysters, salmon cooked to medium (to bring out the creaminess) and the grilled whole fish. The salmon was out of this world! Please order it as medium (never well done!) We came here twice during restaurant week! The grilled octopus (needs to be softer and less charred) and grilled squid (needs more charred and more seasoning. Am not sure stuffing it woth cheese is a good idea. Why? Because you cant char it as well on the inside) were nice (4 out of 5) but i have tasted better at other Greek or Seafood places. The walnut cake is too sweet to be soaked in honey. Just a drizzle on the side of the place is adequate.

Started off on a pretty bad note.... We made a reservation 3 weeks before and was brought downstairs to be seated where it was 20% full and was shown to the worst table there, right next to the hallway to the bloody toilets! (See pic) Immediately asked to be seated further inside the restaurant. The table we finally got was a reasonable one but first gut feel was terrible. The food we ordered was very fresh and succulent. In particular we enjoyed the scallops and the lobster pasta. Huge portions! The appetizers were good and there was a healthy selection of drinks. Desserts were also well done. Service was very good though the exception was really the first sitting of the table. The restaurant quickly filled up so of you want a seat at this place, book early... And funny get the table next to the toilet!
