  Wait...they changed their chicken fingers! My husband is super disappointed. He says they taste like Jack's chicken fingers now and he wants Milo's chicken fingers back.
  
  Me? I think they're delicious because they taste more like Jack's chicken fingers. (just not as 'spicy') They've also added additional sauces for the fingers. A mayo based chicken sauce, buttery buffalo, and ranch.
  
  AND NOW...cole slaw! They've got cole slaw and it was really good. Finely chopped cabbage, lots of mayo, a little kick.
  
  Love this location too because the staff is always so friendly.

  Dear God, what I would give to go back in time and avoid ever eating at this place.  We were driving up through Alabama and needed a quick place to eat so we figured we'd try it out.  The sauce was far from special.  The fries were not "seasoned" so much as just covered in an unholy amount of salt that was for some unknown reason a bright orange.  The burgers tasted more like an unsavory salsbury steak than a hamburger patty and there are very few toppings offered.  Pickles, grilled onions, and Milo's "special" sauce come standard with the optional addtion of cheese.  The strawberry shake was also less than satisfactory.  The artificial strawberry flavoring was overpowering and left an unpleasant aftertaste.  3 hours later and I am still tasting that Milo's burger and I didn't even like it the first time around.  Oy.
  
  I don't see the appeal.  Maybe it's a southern thing but it wasn't for me.

  If you are not from Alabama, this is a must. No burger like it anywhere on earth, and I have been all over the world. I like mine with grilled onions-no pickle. They come standard with sauce, onions (diced and uncooked) and pickle. The grilling of the onions is a must for me as I usually do not like onions at all, but the grilling caramelizes them and makes them go perfectly with the one of a kind sauce. It is my greatest weakness.

  This is the best fast Food Hamburger Place in the World.  I stop at Milo's every  time I get back into town.  In fact this is one of the first places I stop when I get into Birmingham.  Come on we all know that "Everyone Goes to Milo's. "
  
  I have eaten at several Milo's Locations in my time...  The Gardendale location is the best.  They have the greatest staff.  The best hamburgers and the place is always spotless clean.  I even complained about one of the cooks drinking a drink in the back.  The manager turned around and said that is the store manager.  She went write up to him and handle the situation.  I got a free coupon out of it and an apology.  But the most significant part to me was the way the employee confronted the boss and was not scared to do so.  I think that shows a caliber of employee they hire and the company culture.  Every time I go to Milo's I see the same people behind the counter.  That is reassuring to me that they take care of their employees.  So that makes me believe that is why you don't see toothless drug dealers who just work their because the state forces them too.  
  
  So take it from a veteran of lots of burgers.  Go to Milo's your will not be disappointed with a great hamburger, fries, and a sweet tea.  This place sets the bar for the competition.
