Your quintessential neighborhood-y seafood place...
There…read moreare an infinitude of restaurants in Milan, and a large portion of them are very very good. This is one of them, but being up in Isola, and out-of-the-way at that, it's unlikely that you'd stumble upon it. Which is a shame, because it can tick all the right boxes.
* It's *local*. Pretty much everybody you see around you is going to be somebody who's either from the 'hood, or been there a whole bunch-a times
* It's *friendly*. The staff is friendly to a fault, happy to help, and will willingly have long conversations with you about the food, the wine, and, well anything, come to think of it
* It's *good*. The food is done really really well, in that place where simple meets extraordinary. The pastas are done right, and the dishes are effortlessly balanced.
* It's got excellent wine. Seriously. And yes, you can get really good stuff by the bottle, but you're best off getting a carafe of something...
So yeah, don't let the nautical gew-gaws on the walls distract you, or warn you away, go here for the food, and be happy!
