I'm usually not a fan of touristy places to eat but this place is amazing!! Grab and go. I was there on a weekday and somewhat early so there was a short wait - maybe 3 minutes. Expect a line if you come during peak times. I tried: tomato and mozzarella), Prosciutto e Mozzarella, Salame Piccante e Mozzarella. ALL were really good. If I had to pick one I would pick salame piccante e mozzarella. The bread is also just perfect and it can get crowded so everything is fresh!!

If you go to Milan, you should stop here. It is located just behind the Galleria (world's oldest…read moreshopping mall) and Il Duomo (the marble cathedral). Yes, it is a little bit "touristy", but lots of fun. They have savory (such as prosciutto and cheese) and sweet (chocolate). I have been several times and it is not unusual for the line to be down the block. If so, divide and conquer: One person find a place to sit (steps in front of the cathedral?) while the other goes to order and bring back the goodies.

I was not ready since it was a menu you had to scan and view in your phone. I ordered water and it came within a few minutes but then he never came back to take my food order. I had to stop him and call him over when he was at another table. I ordered the "city" which was a hero sized bread with a slice of chicken breast, bacon and a piece of lettuce. It didn't taste bad but the bread was so toasted that I could barely bite into it. I left about 75% of the sandwich because I only at the middle which was less toasted. He never came back to check up on me and I ended up going to the counter inside to pay. Maybe this is how it's done in Italy but it was very odd. It wasn't even busy which made it very frustrating. I could understand if it was packed and a lot of tables had to be served but it wasn't at all! Definitely would not come back and would not recommend.

One guy…read moredoes it all: huge (REALLY HUGE) toasts with such a variety of ingredients to give you a sense of dizziness. Really, watch out for toast sizes, very few people could handle them; I stupidly ordered The Texan: true to its name, it was larger than life. They don't have doggie/cat/people/gators bags, couldn't finish "the thing", had to drive home one handed, holding the other half to avoid sauces & cheese from dripping all over. However, ingredients were excellent and in the end "The Thing" was very tasty. They have some wonderful looking smoothies: unhealthy ones with Oreos and other junky sweets (one of the few people who detests Oreos. I discovered great tasting cookies here in Europe, no comparison) and healthy ones made with/without yogurt and fresh fruits. Value for money is excellent, despite the expensive area.

The restaurant itself is pretty clean, and on the wall you can see autographs of celebrities -- even a famous soccer player (I think the Brazilian star Ronaldo?). You can definitely tell this place is well-known. That said, I do find it a bit pricey. One panini costs about 15 euros, and we asked the chef to cut it in half so the two of us could share. The ingredients definitely seem high quality, but as tourists, our palates might not be refined enough to appreciate all the subtle flavors. To me, it just tasted a bit salty, probably because of the ham (I think it was prosciutto crudo?). Overall, I'd say it's worth a try if you're curious or want to experience a place with a bit of fame, but just know that it's on the pricey side.

I had already made my mind that there wasn't real street food in Milan until we took the longest…read moretramway ride of our lives on a late Saturday morning to Mangiari di Strada. This place can be defined the Italian street food temple and it's in the southern outskirts of Milan (nothing to see in the area and it looks safe during the day... it just takes a while to get there with the tram). When you enter you'll see the options written down in papers everywhere around the counters: from tripe, to sicilian sandwiches, tongue, cold cuts... all kinds of street food from all Italian regions. The system is simple: you order at the counters, pay and wait for your food to be ready to be picked up. The place has lots of seating space, both inside and in the backyard (there's even a grill there) in the summer months. Food keeps coming out and staff is nice enough to explain the dishes and suggest wine pairings or specials. We were very hungry and wanted to taste everything so we had the trippa di pecora con catalogna ed erbette (sheep tripe with chicory and herbs), coratella d'agnello con uova e scarola (lamb interiors with egg and escarole), the lampredotto sandwich (cow tripe, typical Florentine) and the meatballs with mashed potatoes, all delicious, especially the tripe and the lamb - the meatballs were a bit meh, but still good. And portions were just fine. Adding 2 glasses of wine and 2 Chartreuse Verts digestifs, our total was of about 50 euro (5 euro each Chatreuse Vert, ouch). A bit expensive considering it is after all street food but the quality is excellent and it's great to find all these varieties in just one place... This was going to be a 4-star review because of the slightly high prices and because it's too far away from home and they are only open for lunch, but considering the quality of the ingredients and since I'm a tripe enthusiast and this is one of the few places in town where I can eat a decent one, 5 stars it is! We'll definitely be back, that burger looks great!

I was wandering through the neighborhood while waiting to check-in to my hotel room and though I saw many places, Ungaro had consistent traffic and the sign in the window shows that they've been here since 1959.

More importantly I appreciate anyplace where you can pretty much point at what you want when you aren't fluent in Italian.
