Food: 5Service: 10!! (Leona)Ambience: 4Date/Time: 7/18/2024 6:30pmOrder: MyPie, Salad bar with chili and garlic breadCrowd: 1/2 fullAs usual, the food was great. The MyPie was delivered with the standard thick crust. The preference was thin crust but forgot to request it, but they didn't even hesitate to ask it could be corrected and sent it back to return with thin crust... excellent customer service even when the customer was at fault! A big thanks to the cooks too!The server, Leona, was just fantastic. She checked in often and was so friendly and accommodating!Highly recommend Milton's, and hope you get Leona!

Omg how did I not know about this place when I lived 5 minutes away!?!? We received a recommendation from one of my mother's friends to try out this restaurant as we love Italian places.The outside really surprised me with how modern the place looked. It has a very sharp look outside.Inside is very bright and friendly. This is so very a family place. Everyone and their kid brother greeted us when we walked up. So friendly. They seated us right away as we dine early these days. The menu is extremely tempting. It was one of the few times that I wasn't sure what I wanted to order.Mom got her usual chicken parm and as I was craving red sauce I got a baked ziti. She got a glass of wine and I got the red sangria...which was AWESOME! She got the salad bar and I got a Caesar salad. She seemed to enjoy the salad bar and all that it offered.Sadly, one of the.big rules in dining was.broken, they brought my meal out BEFORE I finished my salad. Sigh. It is a family restaurant so a lot is forgiven. What was completely unforgivable though, the ziti in the baked ziti was incredibly over cooked or this may have gotten 5 stars.Still, it's got lots.of parking, the prices are very reasonable now when everything is crazy expensive and the whole.staff were seriously super friendly. I can't wait to go back to try more of the menu (and have another sangria cuz wow that was good!)

Okay place for Italian, but underwhelming. Since it was pouring out, we decided to eat out for dinner and chose Milton's. We had been here in the past for a banquet and received positive recommendations encouraging us to return. As a party of 3 we were seated right away. Service was good and we received our order in a reasonable amount of time. Portions were smaller than anticipated for the price. Even the salad bar was pricy ($14 as a meal or $8 to add onto an entree). If it was $4 to add a salad to an entree we would have selected it. Especially since we would have only needed to visit the salad bar once. The meal was underwhelming since for the price we expected the dishes to be more impressive. Instead, they really lacked flavor. The Chesapeake shrimp pasta ($18) looked well seasoned but even the ole bay was mild and nothing stuck to the noodles. If I let it sit longer to cool and soak up the sauce it may have been better. The dishes were accurate and the components (pasta, shrimp, chicken) were cooked perfectly. Overall, I would dine here again and recommend it to others for an average Italian restaurant.

This place never disappoints. I just had lunch here with my daughter yesterday and when I tell you we were both satisfied....yummy. We opted for the lunch buffet. I started with a fresh salad and chose from allllll of the toppings I enjoy on a salad. Cucumbers, cheese, red onion, and croutons will get it for me every time but they have extras that I enjoy like sunflower seeds and craisins. After my salad I had 2 slices of pepperoni pizza *classic*. There were other options to choose from but obviously I chose my favorites . I sampled a couple of items. The beef rib with teriyaki rice and green beans and the potato bacon soup. Everything was delicious. I was just stuffed after the salad and 2 slices. I also had the strawberry pie for dessert and chefs kiss. My daughter had the fettuccine noodles with Alfredo sauce. She ate the whole plate. For a picky eater, I was impressed. Needless to say, we will be back again.

I came to a meetup group here on a windy, rainy January day. We met in their large group room, which was fortunate because the power kept cycling on and off and one wall of that room was all windows, so we weren't in the dark! The buffet had been cooked already and was still edible, and the power soon returned, but it was interesting.The server was great, even when a second group joined on the other side of the room. She kept us watered and soda'ed and coffee'd, and the bussing folks kept the buffet plates cleared nicely. The food was OK - I didn't try the pizza, but it looked great. The lasagne was OK, but the bacon/potato soup was very good. The dessert pies were freezer-type pies, not house-made. Due to the power situation, they allowed some folks to have pizza from the buffet who were planning to order from the regular menu - a good compromise.

We ordered Milton's Special Pizza and found it delish. Crust is crisp, sausage topping has a kick to it and pepperoni has awesone taste. Ryan was our server and he did an exceëlent job. Overall great experience!

Great first experience at Milton's on Valentine's Day with 30 friends! They accommodated us for lunch in their private dining room. We had a reservation but not for that room because I was told it was already reserved. Pleasant surprise that we got it. Eva or Ava was an amazing waitress professional, friendly and efficient. She even took our group photo outside. Most of the group had the buffet and looked like they enjoyed the full experience. At 11a the buffet was fresh and well stocked. I didn't eat much but what I had was tasty. One slice vegetable pizza, 3 fried corn bites, garden salad with two beet slices, 1 cake square and a Diet Coke. My bill was about $28 including gratuity and that was absolutely too much for what I ate...but someone treated me to my meal. I didn't eat her money's worth though. I did notice that there were lots of options on the buffet like beef ribs, potatoes and a full pasta bar. My next visit to Milton's will not be buffet however that's a personal choice. One downside was the quality of the salad dressing that I tasted was not good.

I've been here countless times since my last review, but just wanted to update it to sing them praises once again!I don't think you're going to find a better buffet in the area. The salad bar is excellent with so many choices of toppings and homemade dressings that are delicious. The dessert bar is very good too and one of my favorites is the strawberry ice box pie. I get a slice before I hit the hot buffet so it has time to thaw while I'm eating my hot foods.The pizza bar is big with at least eight or more pizzas to choose from at any given time. Last, but certainly not least, is the hot bar. There's a pasta bar with several kinds sauces and usually ribs and rice are there too. The main hot bar I love! Two different soups, corn fritters, potato tots, roasted potatoes in a slightly cheesy sauce, some sort of creamy pasta that changes, Greek roasted chicken that is fantastic, usually another kind of chicken too, green beans with garlic, sometimes roasted veggies too, sausage in peppers and onions, and who knows what all else. I can't remember it all, but it's all so good!The staff is great. So friendly and attentive. The manager is always present and not only stays on top of things, but constantly is pitching in with the rest of the employees. That's a good manager in my book!!The buffet is now all day and night on Sundays and I believe just for lunch the other six days of the week. Whenever we do go we try to get there when they open because the place will stay busy non stop, for obvious reasons!

The service was excellent. Sky was superb. She was very friendly & attentive. The food was delicious. Everything was fresh & hot. They offer pizza, salad, pasta, ribs, roasted veggies, cream pies, lemon chicken, cookies, brownies, etc. The restaurant was clean. Plenty of parking. They offer another side with a bar as well.

My mother and I had dinner here recently and the food was delicious! I had the eggplant Parmigiana and she had the lasagna. As you can tell from the picture, there's a lot of cheese in her dish! The restaurant was very busy but the service was still great and the waitstaff was very friendly.
