Biffi is conveniently located in the Galleria shopping area in downtown Milan. We were pleased that they had open seating even though the shopping center was packed. We were given a nice little corner table away from foot traffic. There was a large flat surface that separated our table from tables in an area a few steps up. That surface was so dusty you could write in it. Our server was efficient but not super friendly. The food itself was good but not great which is what I expected in that area. I had the vegetable soup and pasta. The aperol spritz was good as well. read more

Stopped in to grab dinner in a heavy rain storm. The service was ok but the food did not live up to expectations for the price. I understand it is in a heavy tourist area but that is a fair score read more

Biffi in Galleria - Osso Buco. The Rissoto was the highlight of the dish. If you need a place to wait out a thunderstorm it was ok - Italian Near Me - Milan, Michigan

I would say that I received a courageous service in a packed restaurant. I never had to ask for service, good service! The ambience was Italianissimo! Good house wine, good olive oil, hood bread, good decoration... overall great environment. I had the Osobucco, carbonara, snails, and mussels..... can't complain... everything was good. read more

Biffi is located in one of the main corridors of the Galleria at the Duomo! The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. We ordered sea bass with tomatoes and capers along with a dinner salad. The sea bass fillets were flavorful covered with tomato sauce. I felt an explosion of flavors in my mouth. The salad came without dressing but with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The salad was extremely fresh and lots. After or before shopping stop by Biffi for a nice treat to yourself! read more

Great sport for lunch near Duomo! Reasonable price for location. Had spaghetti with clams and burrata salad. Rolls were not great. Service Impeccable. read more

Great experience in a prime location. I lucked out with a window view of the Galleria. This made the experience for me! Really good service during the rush of a lunch crowd. Really enjoyed the Macheroncini pasta with Arrabbiata red sauce. It was quite tasty and full of flavor. I really enjoyed it. Oh, for an app, the Bruschetta was really good. I enjoyed the flavors from the tomatoes. I added some table side olive oil to compliment the dish. Google tells me arrabbiata means "angry" in Italian or spicy in this case. I thought it was the perfect flavor. This is in the Galleria so great location. I'd recommend them! read more

We had an absolutely delicious lunch at Biffi and would come back in a heartbeat. The staff were super friendly and everyone said hello as we were entering, we had a selection of table from a few open choices and the ambiance was friendly and inviting Their gnocchi was to die for! Several tables around us had ordered this as well & for very good reason! Creamy, cheesy and the little pillows ere perfectly al dente. Second dish was the trofie pasta with pesto sauce. This was a hand cut short pasta that was likewise perfectly al dente. The pesto was super flavorful with lots of yummy basil tones. For the other reviewer that complained that the pesto was oily.......well.......it's made with oil so not sure how you'd avoid that but thanks for the laugh Fast service, didn't feel rushed, wonderful pasta - love all around! read more

Food was fabulous and service was exceptional. The home made pasta dishes were especially good. Their desert menu was to die for. read more

This is a beautiful place to dine and relax . The servers in particular "Nicolas" were very pleasant and helpful with the menu . I ordered the Branzino , Tortelloni with Ricotta and Spinach and for starters we had the bruschetta. Everything in this restaurant is delicious. And for dessert we choose the Tiramisu and Millie Falle . I highly recommend this place ! Food is delicious and service is par excellence. read more

I cannot believe the staff at this restaurant, they have zero class. What a nightmare of a dinner. The door man insulted us and created a giant scene because we wanted to take our food to go. I have never been so deeply offended and embarrassed at a professional business in my life. This restaurant screams low class and has no business being in the Galleria. The food was very expensive and it wasn't even good. They brought us old bread to start, I ordered the beef carpaccio it was disgusting, I then ordered a filet with pepper sauce and that was okay. The staff was incredibly rude and they said they were going to charge us $5 per take away box and was yelling infront of the entire restaurant. So unprofessional. You have been warned read more

In the heart of the Galleria, this is a perfect place to watch the waves of humanity pass through. The food is average, service is courteous and attentive. Prices are high for the quality of food you get but remember that you are paying for location... Start with an Aperol Sprtiz! read more

After viewing Leonardo Da Vinci's "The Last Supper," Diane and I walked to the Galleria, and found what looked like a nice, intimate place with an appealing menu where we could dine al fresco. Accompanied by two large bottles of Pellegrino still water, I greatly enjoyed a bowl of hot Verdure Soup containing peas, carrots, green beans, tomato, Cannelini Beans, spinach, zucchini, and potatoes, accompanied by an unusual flakey white roll. Al dente penne lathered with Cream Sauce was delicious, while Spaghetti Carbonara lovingly fashioned with egg, bacon, freshly made pasta, and a velvety Cream Sauce was simply great. Fine service further contributed to a memorable dining experience in historic Milan. XXXX-1.2 stars overall! read more

I was very underwhelmed by this place. The price was extravagant and the food was sub par. I think they are relying heavily on their location to be sufficient enough. I had the Caesar salad and it was if they had taken all the ingredients and plopped them in a bowl (pictured). The Parmesan cheese was sliced thick in large blocks, the chicken tasted as if it had been frozen in chunks, and the lettuce was almost whole. The only reason for 3 stars instead of one or two is because I found the staff pleasant and atmosphere relaxing. read more

I had low expectations since this is a very touristy area. I was pleasantly surprised. The carbonara was among the best I ever had and I've eaten it from south to north Italy. Great wine list. I passed on the dessert but there all looked amazing. read more

Simply put: you're paying for the location and nothing else. The view is great and you get to feel a bit special dining in one of the most beautiful places in Europe. However.. The food was completely forgettable. They put bread on the table that is clearly not fresh and manufactured and charged €6 each person for it. We ordered a mixed salad to share. It was not enough for one person - romaine lettuce, shredded carrots and two cherry tomatoes with olive oil and balsalmic vinegar €9. We got the pasta all'Arrabbiata, known for being a spicy sauce. There was no spice, no salt. Just bland tomato with penne you buy at the grocery store. We also ordered the lasagna that seemed to be homemade and was actually tasty but the presentation could be compared to cafeteria slop in a middle school. After ordering two coca colas (€7 each) paying for the bread that seemed complimentary and a salad that couldn't fill a small child, the bill came to €90 for two people. Total scam. read more

We decided to stop in after our visit to the Cathedral. The service was ok. The food was quite basic without flavor. The steak was under cooked. The marinara sauce tasted like Ragu. The pesto was oily and the carbonara was bland. They brought out our appetizers AFTER our main courses. The saffron risotto was terrible. The wine was nice but didn't have the original choice from their wine list. The wine glasses they brought out were wet. read more

I would avoid this place at ANY COST. I wish we read the reviews before coming here. 1. We made dinner reservations for five people and showed up a few minutes early. When we got there, we told the host we have reservation but that only four people were joining. The host (an older man with an extreme attitude) clearly didn't understand and we kept clarifying that we were only four people and were a little bit early (the entire restaurant was empty so wouldn't be a problem). He proceeded to make fun of us in our faces which we understood. He went on making fun of us for the first few minutes of us sitting down to the waiters. I was staring back and the other waiters noticed that we caught on and just kept looking down. 2. Food was ok nothing special 3. Extremely expensive for no reason 4. When we went to paid, the waiter pressured us to leave tip (which isn't a common custom in Italy) and was hovering over us to make sure we were doing so. Horrible experience. AVOID AT ALL COST DO NOT RECOMMEND AS OTHERS HERE ARE ALSO. read more

Ok a bit OTT again paying for location/view, but food was good i had the veal steak with a side of spinach in lemon and oil and my wife went the seafood pasta, both were good not perfect but hit the spot. You are paying over the odds but we were happy with the taste and you can not criticize thd portions. We went for a half bottle of house red which appears to be from Tuscany and it was very presentable. Would I go back, prob not but I'm on holidays so don't want any bad meals and this certainly wasn't. The 3 stars was more for not great value for money rather than any other reason read more

Visited the center city at Milan. Walked up on this restaurant and decided to give it a try. It was our first lunch in Italy and it was good. Fresh pasta and good wine. It's a little touristy because it's in the center of their mall with all the shops, but that didn't bother me to much. Had a great overall experience read more

The worst osso bucco ever and the risotto was even worse!!! Wine list has tons of unavailable bottles listed so opted for "by the glass" which was barely ok and tiny pours. Oh and the mosquitoes and flies plaguing throughout dinner was disgusting! read more

Sneaky bastards tacked on 'pane e coperto' which is a cover charge they use to cover their cost of bread and tap water they give you at the beginning. $6 per person tacked on another $18 to our bill. We had 3 ppl. read more

First time here 2 days ago. Good food and service. No wait, so that mad it better. Chose the salmon fillet with a side salad. Salmon was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I Would go back for a quick or early dinner. read more

To be honest, after reading some of the bad reviews on here, I have to disagree. I travel to Milan twice a year for work and each trip is about 4-5 days and I will always stop to eat there at least once and sometimes even twice. It is in a typical tourist trap area but it really is one of the best pastas that I have had while being there and very fresh too. The portions are generous and the staff is very attentive and nice. One time, a waiter even called to arrange our taxi ride at 4am to the airport because we don't speak Italian. My favorite is the bolognese pasta because that is my go-to must have while in Italy meal but the asparagus risotto is sooo delicious as well. The Milanese Ossobuco is really exceptional as well. Their olive oil and vinegar is so good too that I asked if they sell them and luckily they do, under their own Biffi label! Be aware of the hefty cover charge, but cover charges are all over Europe. Love this place. read more

Had a piece of glass in my plate of penne with spicy marinara. When I brought it to the waiters attention he got his other coworkers over. The all acted like I was crazy, and said it was a large grain of salt! I'm pretty sure I can tell the difference between salt and glass in my mouth. read more

Decent food in the galleria area- nothing special. Had the carbonara and pasta bolognese.

We went there Sunday night looking for a great pasta restaurant and we were really disappointed. The pasta was nothing special at all. Even the pasta at the Cheesecake Factory in the US are much better. The service was horrible. The server never came to ask us how the meal was. They also automatically tack on 6.5 Euros for each guest as so called "service." The meal came with bread and it was disgusting. It wasn't even in any plate or basket. It came over with just tongs and smacked onto our plate! The bread wasn't warm or anything....just small and harden. I can't believe this place even exist in the biggest attraction place. read more

I was way too hungry to look up reviews so I picked the first restaurant I saw with a menu remotely decent. So I ended up in biffi beside the duomo. I ordered the lasagne and to be in Italy in the oldest "shopping mall" in the world wasn't impressed! They need to rethink the restaurants they have in that area. The lasagne was too burnt to even enjoy and I don't feel like it was saucy enough. If I remember correctly I also like a 6€ bread tax too that I surely wasn't expecting. read more

Food was good. Service was awesome. But............you pay for the service. Went with a buddy because the menu price seemed high but reasonable. It was the added gratuity for wait staff that killed me. 120 euro for lunch. read more

Skip this restaurant if you want good Italian food! If you want to people watch in the mall, this is your place, but the food is horrible (and expensive!!). My spaghetti pomodoro could have come out of a box and jar (and even then had better flavor). Whole meal, with one glass of wine and a side salad, was USD 60! Definitely not worth it. read more

Amazing experience! Great staff, elegant setting and delicious food! Superb! I highly recommend! We had Italian staples: started with bruschetta then lasagna and a beef fillet in green peppercorn sauce for main course. Delicious bottle of wine. The service was impeccable- they anticipated our every need- above and beyond! We thanked the staff and manager for a wonderful dinner on our last night in Milan! read more

Nothing has prepared us to the outrageous service tax - 26 euro that was added to 57 euro bill!!. According to the host they charge 6.5 euro per person for service. It was quite obvious that he doesn't accept the restaurant's policy as he looked very embarrassed when he was trying to justify it. Bottom line - unreasonably expensive restaurant that is in fact a tourist trap. Stay away! read more

Service was good, ambiance was nice, food good. We loved our pasta but not happy with antipasto platter or the fact that it was $6 per person for bread/rolls which in the USA is always complimentary so if you read the fine print it is noted so if there is a charge we should have asked read more

Tourist Trap!! Overpriced low quality food. Got hit with a cover charge of 26 Euro (but they don't let you know until you get the check).

The Ossobuco with Saffron Risotto would have been great if the meat was falling off the bone tender. The gravy and saffron risotto was fantastic but the meat was not tender falling off the bone cut with a fork tender. read more

We had a great meal there yesterday. The place is definitely overpriced and there is a 6.50/pp cover charge but the food and service were good. Also, the cover charge is mentioned on the menu but not on the one put outside. Overall we were happy with our meal. read more
