After reading these reviews and upon a recommendation by a co-worker who used to live in Patterson we had dinner here. I'm not sure if I walked into the right place, but me and my friend didn't think it was delicious. Sorry. First, we waiting 15 minutes for them to finally take our order and probably that long to get our drinks. I ordered the scalone based on one review - it was OK. Salad was drenched in dressing and the pilaf looked/tasted like it was sitting in a steam tray all day. I asked for a blended margarita and when I got it the "blended" ice had already separated from the drink and tasted like salt water. We ended up going back to the hotel to their restaurant and I got another margarita and garlic fries - yum. Very disappointed.
Review Source:Driving up I5 tired of fast food. Wander into Patterson and find this place for a home-cooked meal. In at 5:30 on a Thursday. Great service and food. The special was st Louis ribs. Standard Midwest fare. This place is quiet, cool with no glare, the opposite of I5 today. What a relief.
Review Source:Mil's is just a really solid diner! If there were a half a a star, they would probably get three and a half from me. The only reason that they wouldn't get the four stars from me (if I had the choice) is that I find their pricing a teensy bit spendy in relation to the ambiance. If I were ever able to go there for drinks or dinner, I would probably feel more generous. Unfortunately, I'm always on the clock dining with coworkers. So, I've pretty much only ever had their breakfast. The dining room is sort of dark and oppressive with fake wood paneling and mismatched chairs. The coffee is ho-hum. The cost usually comes in around ten or more dollars per person, if you get coffee or juice.
Okay, with those qualifiers aside, I can get to the good stuff. Their service is great! The waitress always on weekday breakfasts is friendly, efficient and easy-going. She is the quintessential diner waitress, speaking in diminutives and constantly refilling coffees. They almost always have fresh spinach on hand, enabling my coworkers to order Joe's Special and me to order sauteéd spinach on the side of my poached eggs and toast. (A weird breakfast, I know, but my favorite anyways.) Recently, I had an unusually strong protein craving and I ordered their tuna melt. It was really good. The tuna had barely, if any at all, mayonnaise in it. So it really tasted like tuna. The salad it came with was huge!
As far as I know, Mil's is the only really good sit-down breakfast option in the town of Patterson. So I definitely recommend it. If they were maybe one dollar cheaper, they would be an absolutely perfect diner.
Mom absolutely adores the fried chicken and I, a Disgruntled Old Coot, difficult to please and grumpy beyond belief, drools with anticipated delight at the mere thought of shoveling in Scaloni into my gaping maw.
Mil's is one of few eating establishments offering Scaloni, a blend of abalone and scallops, slightly breaded and pan fried.
Delightful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderfully prepared and oh so delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum a million times YUM!!!!!!!
I really wish there was an option to rate 3 1/2 stars but I guess this place deserves a 4 over a 3, but not by much.
Anyway, this place has three distinct sections; diner, banquet, bar. Â We opted to sit in the banquet area over the diner area because the lighting in the diner was rather obtrusive. Â I had a French Dip sandwich and enjoyed it a lot; they use real A'jus instead of the fake stuff.
After dinner we went to the bar and had a couple drinks. Â My whiskey sour was good but the wife's Mai Tai had too much rum in it (and was probably very cheap rum). Â
Unfortunately the place just looks kinda old and run-down. Â They have a large HD TV in the bar but then this super-tiny, 15-year old tv next to it; what's the point?
A good place if you're just lookin' for some good grub, but I wouldn't take someone here on a date if I was looking to impress them.
Nice restaurant, good food with some awesome food tossed in. Great service, never ever been disappointed regardless of sitting in the restaurant area, the "diner" area or the bar. Calamari steak is a speciality - large portion, great taste. Steakhouse menu on Friday and Saturday nights, family style a few other nights during the week. Sunday breakfast good, omelet choices pretty standard, done well. Â We've gone in as 2, 6 or groups of 10 or more. Doesn't faze them.
Review Source:Mil's is always good for breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks......Well anytime really! The staff is friendly and attentive. The menu there offers many things and everything is good. I love the calamari and being from Monterey that is a huge compliment! I can't wait to go there again soon.

In the two years that I have been living in Patterson I have been avoiding the small town culture to try and preserve my "bay area-ess" as much as possible. Now that I am out of work and in Patterson all day, everyday, I decided to check out a local hangout, Mils.
I have to tell you that I didn't know what to expect. I'm clearly an outsider into their world, but I have to say that this place is great. I was greeted by a cheery young bartender at happy hour. She was not only attentive to my drink orders, but chatted me up as she was closing down her shift.
As the evening rolled in, so did most of the Patterson locals. Met a sweet couple in their 50's who mistook me for some girl at church, even got the hello kiss on the cheek and everything. And had the pleasure to meet some people of this town, hear some stories, and have fun doing it.
Minus one star for only having bottled beer. (Just a personal preference) Will be back
For an authentic and original atmosphere Mil's is the place to be. Â From the painting of "Roller-Skate" waitresses which greets you upon arrival, to the rustic, old-west style of the bar, Mil's has an environment which is unbeatable in Patterson and the surrounding area.
The menu consists of All-American classics ranging from delicious, well priced burgers, to perfectly seasoned steaks, and so on. Â The portion size, paired with the taste and price make Mil's the best place for dining in and around Patterson.
To compliment Mil's dining encounter, the bar draws crowds of all ages and backgrounds. Â If you're looking to watch a game or have a few drinks after work, Mil's bar accommodates all walks of life.
I would highly recommend Mil's Bar & Grill to anyone looking to have a good meal or a good time. Â You will be greeted with a smile and will leave full. Â Enjoy!
