Just had dinner here and it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant is huge inside, and has outdoor seating in the front and back. Our waiter, Omar, was excellent and attentive, as was his assistant (didn’t get his name). Wish we did get his name as he was very helpful with answering our questions about the Metro. Our group of 6 started with two orders of the Beef Genovese Croquettes, a side salad and beef tartare. They were all very good, but the croquettes were a standout - filled with delicious braised beef. Two of us got the Milanese Saffron Risotto which came with Osso Bucco on top - complete with bone marrow. Two of us got the Tagliolini with Tuna and Lemon. Think small chunks of seared tuna mixed in a bed of linguini. It was rounded out with the vegetable lasagne and the fish. The Spritzes and wine were also very good. Only “issue” is that we were too full for dessert. We saw some beautiful desserts served to other tables. We highly recommend this restaurant.
The cauliflower appetizer, with pine nuts was absolutely phenomenal, a perfect balance of flavors! Must try #1 in Milano!
The restaurant offers a very charming and elegant atmosphere, which made us feel comfortable right from the start. The staff was friendly and polite throughout our visit. The pizzas were of good quality and tasted delicious overall; however, one of the pizza crusts was burnt to the point that it was no longer edible. Although we mentioned this to the waiter, unfortunately no solution or alternative was offered. When selecting our wine, we initially requested two bottles from the menu that turned out to be unavailable. The third recommendation by the staff, however, was excellent and turned out to be a very good choice. The tiramisu served was gluten-free and made with decaffeinated coffee, which was not indicated on the menu. As a result, it differed noticeably from the expected flavor profile and was ultimately disappointing. Additionally, there was no toilet paper available in the men’s restroom during our visit. All in all, the setting and ambiance were truly lovely, and the service team was pleasant. The food, particularly the pizza, was enjoyable, but a few avoidable shortcomings slightly diminished the overall experience.
A large space with ample seating and decent pizza. The restaurant can accommodate large bookings (including an event for 60 heads in a separate section while we ate). There are some creative variations of restauration classics (eg pistachio in a tartare — although wanting for salt) and regular fare (vaca grassa steak, pizze, etc). We ate a couple meat crudos, a focaccia, a couple pizza, and an Italian landrace beef steak. The ultimate item was prepared well and a sizable portion for its price tag (35 eur). The crudos were fine and of good quality meat. The focaccia was their plain pizza dough with some dry herbs and oil. The wheat dough was strictly better than the white dough. Nota bene: the integrale (whole wheat) pizza dough was good but deceptively not whole wheat. I was excited to see what was being done with every nutritious bit of germ bran and endosperm and was wholly disappointed that they used what seemed like a mix of T80 and T65. Service good, al fresco seating in October tolerable.
