Local and independently owned, Milano’s Wood Fired Kitchen & Pizzeria is a stylish choice for Italian and Mediterranean fare. Mike and Ali have been serving customers for 21 years and continue their passion to make sure everyone who comes through their front door leaves satisfied with their food choices and happier than before they entered their doors.
You’ll see evidence of their wish to create a lovely atmosphere through the transformation of the dining area, which boasts new artwork and lighting. Even the kitchen has been updated with new equipment.
When the chef has the proper tools, it makes the systems of preparation and delivery more efficient. “It’s part of making sure our customers have a great dining experience,” says Mike.
Savor the selections on the lunch menu, which has special pricing Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. It’s your choice, whether to dine in or call ahead for take-out or delivery. Customers choosing the dine-in option will experience the convenience of tasty recommendations along with a full-service bar, and daily special selections. Happy Hours are all day on Saturday and Sunday in the restaurant as well.
As the temperatures outdoors heat up, it’s nice to know there is a local option for great food just around the corner at Milano’s. Set up a weekday on your calendar for Italian or Mediterranean and call the restaurant directly to arrange a pick-up for a quick, tasty dinner. Signature favorites for summer include the Italian chicken salad, lasagna, and chicken shish kabobs.
How about a unique Mediterranean platter to serve poolside with guests? The chicken shawarma platter pairs well with beach towels and soft music. Milano’s utilizes Door Dash and Uber Eats too, but as you think locally, you’ll be excluding the percentage sharing by picking it up yourself.
When you support local businesses, you are helping our community thrive. The staff at Milano’s has done a great deal to keep prices surprisingly low, during a time when costs are trending up. “Our profit margins have gone down,” added Mike. “We prefer the lower margin ratio to help keep our customers happy.”
