Milu

The service was outstanding, especially for a casual dining spot. The dishes aimed for a fusion style while still maintaining authentic flavors. We couldn't decide between the brisket and the chili crispy chicken, so we ordered the brisket as the entree with a generous portion of the chicken as a side. The brisket was incredibly tender! I wish they would open another location on the west side.

Bright and clean atmosphere and friendly service. The food was tasty and unique. I really enjoyed the flavors in the duck bun, and the crispy chicken bowl had nice compliments like the salad and chili crisp.

Milu is a pretty unique spot for fast and casual Chinese food. They have a good mix of classic dishes with a modern twist. It's a self service type of restaurant where you order up front and you get to sit anywhere you want. The place is so cute and the tables and seating actually look so comfortable. Milu is right by my office, so I decided to grab lunch to go. I ordered ahead on their website and the staff was actually very punctual with the pickup time, which is a huge plus during the lunch rush hour. I went with the Chili Crisp Chicken bowl for the day. The portion doesn't look huge for the price, but it was actually quite filling. The chicken was fried nice, crispy, and wasn't really that spicy. The chicken with the scallion mayo on the side is such a great pairing. There were tons of fresh veggies and the tofu seaweed salad was so refreshing to mix with everything. I don't know why it took me this long to try Milu, but it is now on my list of quick office lunches.

Interesting concept where they serve Chinese food with a "healthy" twist. Allergens are clearly marked so if you've got dietary restrictions it makes navigating the menu easy. However execution is lacking and it ends up falling squarely in the category of being another mediocre spot offering mediocre food... While the presentation was good - the food itself was very disappointing. Overly salted and dry beef brisket. Didn't taste fresh and was overpriced for what it ultimately was. Sodium levels were insane to the point the dish was inedible. Only save grace was it packed a nice punch if you like your food a bit spicy. The duck fat rice barely tasted any different from the regular rice. In a city where there's so many strong options, this place is a pass. Service is friendly.

Cute place with good service but food was extremely mediocre. I’m not sure how I’d describe this place - maybe fancier fusion Chinese food? We went for Saturday brunch so they had the dim sum menu. Turnip tots were the best thing on the table and the siumais were ok as well. Everything else was not to our liking - however, this may be a personal preference. The bowl (lotus root + crispy chicken) that we got is more like their normal food, and it felt like a prettier and Chinese version of chipotle. I’m sure some people will like the fusion-y taste but we will not be coming back again.
