Neighborhood Ice Cream Parlour, cafe, and bakery
Milk is a casual yet good for people watching neighborhood hangout. When you step in, it feels somewhat sterile because of all the white paint and stainless steel. The high ceiling makes it feel less cosy but gives a very cool feeling in hot summer. It has a real dairy/ice cream parlor vibe.
They have many things but do most of it really well. It has good ice cream, ice cream treats, sorbet, and great cookies, cakes, and puddings. They also have good coffe and cuban sandwiches.
I love their butterscotch pudding, chocolate chip cookies, and chocolate fudge cookies. Their tres leches cake isn’t too wet but very moist and rich and delicious. However, the blue velvet cake feels like it was dunked in moisture and was too mushy for me.
Their fudge sundae is a good bargain. I refuse to go to Mashti Malone’s because their portions are way too tiny for the price. They put little scoops of ice cream with fudge in a small container that sits comfortably in your hand and calls it a sundae and charges around $7.
At Milk, a large cold glass container is filled with 2 generous scoops of their ice cream with hot fudge, butterscotch, whipped cream, nuts, and a cherry top it off for less than $6. Their coffee ice cream is so yummy and strong that it can keep you up at night. They aslo have little good chocolate covered ice cream treats for .50.
I would have given it 5 stars if the seating was more comfortable with more indoor seating. Staff are usually friendly and helpful but it can get really crowded with staff getting confused and flustered. Parking is terrible in this area in the evening but before 6p there’s parking in the side alley of El Cayote parking. After 6, you are on your own and being speed racer to get to a parking space.
Posto Fantastico!
Questo posto è veramente fantastico! Si trova anche vicino ad un negozio di orologi da uomo e quindi è veramente il top! Non troverete di meglio in giro! Vi consiglio di mangiare un buon pasto in questo ristorante e non rimarrete di certo delusi!

When I went to Milk, I got to sample several of their famous ice creams, and found them sort of hit and miss. For starters, the coffee toffee crunch ice cream just wasn’t as great as their reviews. Surprisingly, the quince sorbet was excellent though – light, sweet yet not cloyingly so. Blood orange sorbet is good too, a very mellow orange flavor, not intense as I would have expected.
I also tried three different milkies (little ice cream chocolate covered bonbons) – mint chocolate, strawberries & cream, and coffee toffee crunch. These hit the spot when you want just a little bit of ice cream and chocolate but not a full order. I actually preferred eating their ice cream this way versus just a regular scoop – perhaps being covered in chocolate helped!
I’ve also tried Milk’s peanut butter cookies which are quite tasty, with peanut butter chips and actual peanuts mixed in; they’re about 1/4" thick, more of a soft yet sturdily “crumby” texture (the way that many chocolate chip cookies are) versus the typical crispy or chewy.
I’ve had also had the Ooey Gooey Chocolate Cookie, a smaller but thick chocolate cookie with chocolate chips. These are sumptuous for a chocolate fix – soft, chewy and the chocolate chips are big!
Blondies are pretty good, but not the best; soft, slightly buttery texture; use tiny milk chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, and butterscotch chips. Fortunately, the butterscotch (or are they white chocolate?) chips weren’t overly sweet, but I would have rather that they use all chocolate chips instead of half b-scotch and half chocolate chips.
