second time at bar Milano, I'm Italian from Milano and so I can judge the dish the appetizer is very good tartare good and pepperoni good. the main The cutlet is good--as is the salad served with it--but the breading detaching from the meat is not right. The service was good read more

Honestly, the food was very average for the price. 3* The drinks were great! 5* The service was absolutely outstanding!! Rita was on point with everything. Such a friendly person. When you go there ask for Rita. Give this lady a raise ASAP! Thank you so much Rita, we appreciate you! 10* read more

Restaurant part of Eataly at the Flatiron area of NYC. Stumbled here on a hot July day looking for an easy meal in a nice setting. That I got. Risotto was delicious. Radicchio salad large and delightful. Vitello Tonnato was a miss. Not terribly tasty. Service was decent - not too great but it got us through. read more

Rafael provided exceptional service at Bar Milano! From the moment I arrived, he was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. He made sure everything was perfect throughout my visit and went above and beyond to create a great experience. If you're dining at Bar Milano, I highly recommend asking for Rafael. Outstanding service--I'll definitely be back! read more

I've been coming to Eataly for years, and this was my first time leaving thoroughly disappointed. The set up is quite romantic and intimate, we almost missed the place because we thought it was just a bar. Crudo di Tonno: the best dish, which says a lot since it's just raw tuna with olive oil, lemon, and salt. Without this (and the courteous wait staff), it would've been 1/5. Veal Ragu: tasted like hamburger helper. A baby cow died for this. Peperoni Anchovy: serving size was tiny, anchovy was practically nonexistent. Saffron Risotto: thin, underwhelming, and begging for a protein. Not worth the hype. Won't return here, I'll definitely go to the other spots there. read more

This place was great. There were some fun cocktails and delicious food choices. We were just visiting so we couldn't really shop for groceries but they let you take drinks to sip while you shop. This was a perfect easy lunch spot. And the restaurant week menu was a good deal. read more

Delicious and beautifully presented food. And, then, there is the perfect coffee prepared by a woman named Rita. Ask for her...So pleasant, light like an angel, and the definition of gracious! read more

I stopped here for lunch on a Wednesday. Eataly itself was a little overwhelming to walk through, but once I reached the restaurants it was a very relaxing experience. Service was great, the staff was attentive and noticed when I needed a refill or was ready for my next course. I had a pasta dish, this is a terrible photo and it does not do the pasta any justice. I would highly recommend this place for small groups or solo travelers, I have no idea if they can accommodate large parties. read more

As per most of my other recent reviews, I went to this restaurant a good while ago. I arrived here early and as they have a good selection of negronis like most other Italian spots, I had one. I went with the L'Amarena for $18 with Luxardo Maraschino, Luxardo Bitter Bianco, and Luxardo Sour Cherry Gin. It was tasty with a bit of sourness and some bitterness. The bartender there was friendly as well and I would go back and try the Chinato as well. Soon, the rest of my party arrived and we got seated. The wait staff we had was fine and the bread that came out was good but a bit cool which was unfortunate. The tables were nicely spaced and there was some noise from Eataly but not too much. I went with the Tagliatelle al Ragù di Vitello for $32 with Housemade Tagliatelle Pasta, Mosner Family Veal Ragù, and Agriform Grana Padano DOP. More accurately this would be described as a blanco ragu which is a bit different than the usual red one you find here. The pasta was cooked a bit too long for my liking being beyond al dente and had an unappetizing texture. The meat was stringy and honestly very watery and just wasn't tasty with the only thing good on there being the excellent quality cheese but that is just simply added on top and not cooked. I'm not sure if this is how it's made in Milan but I honestly hated this pasta dish and I wouldn't recommend it. I tried a bit of someone else's pasta which was fine but overpriced and I think one person enjoyed their steak which looked fine. I don't remember what the other person had. As my side/contorno, I had something that doesn't seem to exist on the menu anymore which was the Cauliflower/Cavolfiore for $12 which was roasted with some I believe currants and a small amount of pine nuts/pignoli. The cauliflower could have been roasted a bit longer but it was fine and it had a bit of sweetness and a bit of nuttiness. There was also a bit of sourness and wouldn't be surprised if there was also balsamic glaze or something added to the cooking process. This was good but not great. The food here was overpriced and just wasn't tasty. I know it's in Eataly so that can excuse the prices but if the flavor is also bad, what's the point? At least the cocktail was decent. Maybe go here for the risotto instead or something. Low 2 though it would be a 1 if I didn't order a cocktail. read more

Eataly had a lively atmosphere due to its busy surroundings with the shops. Even though they have many activities and attractions in the area, this place really stood out. We chose the special lunch menu, which was definitely worth it. The entrees and mains looked and tasted great, with plenty of vegetarian options. read more

I had a lovely time with my husband at this restaurant but wanted just a little more. I believe my review is accurate and fair. But I would have given it a 3.5 if that rating was possible. When meandering through the labyrinth at Eataly, we decided to pick a restaurant inside the market, and we stumbled upon Bar Milano after our dinner at Pastis was cancelled due to a booking mix up. It was a nice open air vibe with shoppers walking by and a nice cozy back room divided by a glass paned wall. White fabric decor hung from the ceiling, adding a little bit of noise muffling. It was a nice vibe, and the servers were attentive but not disruptive. The bread came out and we were disappointed at how cold it was. Like it had been sitting in a fridge. Our appetizer of squash with roasted pumpkin seeds, and hazelnuts, various herbs and micro-greens was delicious, but again this dish should have been served at room temp or warm. It tasted like it may have been previously made or at least the squash was. I would have liked this dish hot, and the chips to be crispy, not cold and chewy and essentially inedible. The ricotta base was also delicious. The black truffle scallops were excellent but the dish was tiny, maybe 4 oz of food total for a hefty price. Nice to taste the truffle in the scallops, but four small scallops for $30+ just not worth it. The tagliatelle and braised veal was deliciou and also a medium sized portion, but also, just plopped in the middle of the plate with no herbs air fanfare. Felt like it was under dressed. Overall a good dining experience, but left us a little hungry afterwards. We'll try another place next time. I didn't know there were at least three other restaurants we could have tried. We found out afterwards, and joked "Let's go to dinner again" because we were still a little hungry. read more

Food and service were pretty good but they charge for bread. Petty. Stupid. It's the one thing I'll remember about this place.

I recently decided to try Bar Milano at Eataly. I've now eaten at all five of their restaurants and I have to say, this is my favorite! The waiters were all so attentive and each course was more tasty than the last. I had the radicchio salad, the meat ravioli; which tasted like little pillows of heaven and the chocolate cannoli for dessert. It was during restaurant week so my meal was very reasonably priced. By the time I was finished the restaurant was packed! I left with a happy stomach and a wonderful sense of well being. What more can you ask for? read more

The Master Chef fan in me just HAD to dine at an Eataly restaurant located just down the street from the Flatiron building, Eataly was such a cool spot! When you walk in you get to see beautiful vine greenery with lights accenting them all over the walls and entryway. You are first greeted by the gelato shop and open market where you can pick up Italian snacks, cheeses, and even some fresh fish! Toward the back of the market you will find Bar Milano and their other restaurants. We made reservations in advance, expecting it to be pretty busy, which it was. We could tell the place seemed understaffed, but our waiter took great care of us regardless and tried to make our experience as seamless as possible. To drink we ordered the Amalfy45 & Singapore Sling (must try). For our food we ordered the Pappardelle al Ragu di Vitello, and the Tortiglioni al Sugo di Pomodoro! The Ragu absolutely made the dish according to my husband and the pomodoro was perfection! That along with our bread service was enough to leave us full and ready for a nap afterwards! I would love to go back and experience more of Eataly in the future! read more

Stopped by the bar for a quick cocktail after work and went off menu with an amaretto sour. Service was quick and extremely friendly, and the bartender specified all the details of the drink with me to ensure I got exactly what I wanted. The drink was perfect with great flavor and excellent presentation (not to mention it was quick). The ambiance of the bar area is fairly quiet but with a bustling background from the market around. Highly recommend stopping in for a quick after work drink if you're in the area! read more

We made a reservation almost at the last minute-when we arrived we had to wait about 20 minutes, but that was only an inconvenience because we had been walking around the city all day. Despite being incredibly busy, the staff were all pleasant and professional. Our waiter, Antonio, was the same. From great food and wine recommendations, to efficient service, he made the experience even better. The Margherita pizza and spaghetti pomodoro were so delicious. I just could not believe a restaurant doing this volume of food so quickly would be able to produce such great products. Well done. read more

I had the wild mushroom risotto. It was creamy, tasty and so delicious. You could really taste the mushrooms. As a starter I had the prosciutto with the rustico bread. The bread is served Tuscan style with little to no salt, was fresh and delicious. It is served with some excellent olive oil. The prosciutto was very good not the I ever had. A little dry. Would return. read more

Had lunch at Ristorante Milano at Eataly Flatiron and everything was outstanding. We started with two appetizers, then had the Agnolotti del Plin and the Risotto with lemon and gamberi--both were delicious and perfectly executed.

Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for authentic Italian food in a great atmosphere. read more

Terrible service. Rude manager treating me and my kids with a terrible attitude. The only reason we didn't leave it's because is Thanksgiving day and other places were probably busy. We will never go back. Don't eat here. Besides the ridiculous service, the food it's a solid 4 out of 10. $140 dollars for two pastas e two risottos. Just do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. read more

Cute wine bar. Good selection of wine. Great deal for bread. But unfortunately, the bartender/server committed a great sin concerning wine tasting. He served my taste samples NOT in separate glasses, but the same glass. Wth... I have never had this occur ever at any restaurant or bar for that matter because the majority of people know you don't do that. That error is the sign of a subpar wine place to be honest. Remedial training is definitely needed for that server. Other than that huge error (which is easily worth a 2 star dock), place was good. Debating on going back though. read more

We had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary during Restaurant Fest. We sat by the chef's counter to watch all the magic happening in front of us. The service was warm and attentive. We appreciate the complimentary anniversary drinks and the wishes. Negroni lovers would enjoy going through the extensive Negroni drink list - our server's recommendation was great. All the dishes we picked from the restaurant fest menu were fantastic. I am not a big fan of risotto, but the one here was cooked to perfection! The breading on the Vitello alla Milanese was so thin, and the seasoning was spot on that I couldn't stop eating it even when I was full. We also tried the uni and caviar special - I'd recommend the uni piece. read more

This restaurant is perfectly adequate but highly overpriced. We came during the Eataly promo where you can get a side and main starting at $19, but at Bar Milano it's actually $29. One of the specials for the season is truffle both black and white--which they had a special white truffle risotto. Of course we ordered this and then a starter of the meatballs and main of veal milanese. The risotto was an astonishing $39. At this price, I would have expected the most delicious truffle dish. This was not it! In fact, it was quite bland. They made a show of shaving the white truffle on the dish, and although quite nicely delicate, just didn't do enough to elevate the dish. The meatball appetizer tasted like ground Vienna sausages. My friend loved the., but I didn't much care for them. The veal was quite lovely but only came with a small salad.. not much of a main course. And quite pricey for being over $20. The service is quite nice, although we sat at the bar. They were very attentive and ensured we had everything we wanted. I'm not likely to come back here for this, but Eataly in general is a lovely place to visit! read more

3/5 stars is SUPER accurate. Food was overpriced and pasta tasted mediocre. I've had caviar before and I don't recall it being that ridiculously expensive. I think one scoop was $40? Good lord. I don't even think I had enough of it to actually taste it. Service was good-- we liked the guy that came around to get our orders and he had good suggestions. He told one of us not to get the fusilli I think? And he was right, it totally sucked and my boyfriend called it bougie chef boyardee. The ONLY redeeming thing about this place was their desserts. The chocolate cake was amazing. The tiramisu was perfect. Just come for these two things, and get the lunch somewhere else. read more

Terrible service, and mediocre food. Three of us ordered the yellowfin tuna tartare and the beef tartare. The tuna tartare was served with one(1) potatoe chip (even though the description on the menu said it was served with potato chipS- plural. The beef tartare was served with nothing to put it on. When we asked if we could get a few more chips to eat these dishes with, the waiter literally brought a plate with two more potato chips on it! We then asked if we could possibly EACH have 3-4 chips and were told NO. We then talked to the manager because it seemed strange to be arguing over a small handful of chips while we have $50 in tartare in front of us. The manager also said no, that they didn't have enough to give us more than 3 chips. I pointed out that we were literally sitting in the middle of a grocery store, and they could just go grab a bag of chips, open it and give us about ten cents in chips, or lose $50 in food sales to save that ten cents in chips. They chose to take back the $50 in tartare, and so needless to say, we will not be dining there again! read more

Our food was exquisite - fresh and delicious (wagyu and baccalá). Our service was top notch, and we look forward to returning.

It was...ok. I wanted to love it. I did, especially because one of my friends raved about it. Service left much to be desired. Bar Milano was fairly empty so I figured I'd get quicker service there than elsewhere. I was incorrect. After sitting at the bar for 10-15 minutes I did eventually get someone to notice I was there (they sat me at the bar, I did not sit myself there). It took another ten minutes to get water. It took forever to get refills on the water. There was a food festival occurring so I thought I'd order from that menu. I ordered the Tortelli di Piselli and Mondeghili. Neither was anything to write home about. In the end, it was just an ok meal that made me wish I had gone elsewhere. read more
