  Great outdoor seating on a popular but quiet street.  I had lunch here, starting with Mozzarella Di Buffala salad and then pizza Napoli. Both were tasty, and if there was a bit of a wait for the pizza, it was nice to sit outside on a sunny Milanese afternoon.  Service was responsive and friendly. And they gave me a little glass of limoncello when I asked for my bill, a nice touch.

  Dinner here was delicious and did not disappoint. They had a good selection of red wine to start. We started off with the tomato bruschetta, it came with four pieces and was perfect to share. I had the gnocchi with Gorgonzola and walnuts, cooked perfectly and very delicious. I sampled the risotto and the steak both were excellent. Everything was excellent and the wait staff very friendly. I would highly recommend dinner here!

  This is on a main drag in the brera district so It's like south beach in miami (my hometown) so maybe you lower your expectations when it comes to food.  In this case the food was excellent and yes maybe a bit pricier than other locations but not that much.
  If you are in Milan this is the area come check out and have a meal. It's pedestrian only, full of restaurants with outdoor seating and cool medieval like streets.
  So the ambiance if you sit outside is very nice with People walking by on a pedestrian street with zero cars nearby. It screams tourist trap but the service is very good and sharp and the food is very good.
  
  First off I see complaints about the Coperto at 3.50. When you consider you get a glass of proseco for an aperitif and a limoncello after dinner along with a nice bread basket that is not bad.
  We had a spaghetti vongole which was excellent with fresh if small clams and a nice dressing/sauce. We also had steak strips with Arugula (rocket as
  They call it in Europe ), wonderful tomatoes and cheese. A great dish with a ton of food.
  Bottom line we enjoyed everything about eating here especially the location. Go eat on ocean drive in south beach and you will get crap service and crap food (except maybe at casa Larios)l but here on an equivalent tourist hot spot you may spend a few euros more but it's a nice experience with really good food.

  Great for people watching. Food had nothing to recommend it. We ordered the bruschetta (just okay), gnocchi with Gorgonzola (overly rich sauce drowned the clearly not homemade dumplings) and the tagliatelle with shrimp (again, just okay and something you could order at any run of the mill Italian place in the States). Note the cover here is 3.50 euros per person and when we dined they reminded us tip is "not included" and asked we fill in the tip amount before charging our credit card.

  The service was superb. The waiter really made this place a hit.  We had pizza and salad  and wine. I would go back because of the service.
