The branzino was good, but didn't love their salsa verde (which is one of our favorites). We loved the menu and want to try other options and will definitely go back.

However (once again) the background music was an instrumental, bass-heavy techno-pop sound that was so disrupting. The ambience of Milton's is delightful and a bit retro. I don't know why they can't mix it up a bit with tunes that are more in keeping the Milton's vibe. In a small and cozy space, it does make a difference!

All this attention to a rather cool retro decor and some sort of euro junk was on sound system. Frank and Dean would have added a lot to the mix.
