    One stop shop for all things Italian food related plus in-house restaurant options. Rating this as a grocery and not restaurant since I didn't eat here. I was in the neighborhood and noticed some reviews mentioned this was a good place to pick up food souvenirs. Hafta say I agree, there are all sorts of items and a ton of variety to choose from. From the outside it looks very similar to the locations in NYC, an entirely glass facade a couple stories tall with the word "Eataly" in big caps across the front. There's a stand alone in-house restaurant directly across from the main entrance as well as open air seating at outdoor tables. It was a pretty warm day so I didn't see many people outdoors. Inside the building it's laid out like a mid-size supermarket with a bar area on the street-level floor and essentially a fancy food-court style restaurant level on the second floor, accessible by escalator and elevator. I wasn't hungry so I spent most of my time wandering the aisles checking out the different products. Most of their assortment are items you'll also find in their overseas locations though at a more affordable price. (Like seriously so much cheaper than in NYC.) There's fresh produce, meat and dairy, a bakery, frozen section, home goods, cooking/baking ingredients and condiments, drinks, prepackaged and canned foods, snacks and sweets, wine and alcohol. It was certainly convenient to hit up for the breadth of products! Checkout was easy enough they take cash or cards with chips. Same general rule in Europe they'll charge for paper bags if needed, I had carried a reusable bag with me for this exact purpose so that worked out. They do the traditional aperitivo here, kinda like "happy hour" but refers more to the alcoholic drinks served before a meal, which nowadays usually encompasses a small bite too. I don't get the impression that the general food here is especially stellar, I didn't eat at this location but there are a lot of local specialty spots around so I'd suggest checking those out to start. There are bathrooms located in the back of the street level floor.

    The crunchiest, most juicy chicken anyone could dream of! At the top of this amazing Italian marketplace is a dine-in restaurant called the Food & Pizza Theatre. The menu features everything from meats and seafood to salads, pastas, soups, main courses, desserts, and of course, pizzas. I ordered the "Rusticella di Pollo alla Diavola" . It includes a boneless seasoned chicken thigh with roasted friggitelli and spicy mayonnaise--and it was a total knockout. Loved it! The waitress warned me that it was really spicy so I was nervous, however, it wasn't that bad and complemented the rest of the dish very well! I also ordered a side of rustic fried potatoes, which was fantastic. The menu is mostly in Italian, but the English translations, written beneath most dishes, were very helpful. The wait staff was also friendly and attentive, making it the beautiful ambience and bustling market even more enjoyable.

    Always fun times at Eataly, but to be able to go to Eataly in Italy, it's such a treat. The holiday decorations were up so it was really festive. The layout of the store is somewhat similar to that of Vegas and San Jose, but this location can't be beat. Got some Italian chocolates and chips and super cute canvas bag and water too. There's a resto, deli, every Italian wine you can imagine, grab n go and more! I'd definitely recommend a stop here while in Milan, about 15-20 walking distance from city center.

    Came here on a busy Saturday night without reservations. And yet, when we arrive, despite a line to get in, we were quoted 15 minutes wait. We were seated at 19 minutes--awesome. I ordered the Spaghetti Vongole with Bottarga. WOW! The spaghetti was al dente, the clams were sweet and juicy. And the heady bottarga elevated the dish to something special.

    Food was horrible

    I love Eataly and we got a lot of good products there. Pistachio cream, chocolates, different pasta, marmalade, spices, prosciutto... But we always get caught in between lunch and dinner time. Everything was closed for lunch after 3 pm beside terrace outside. I can tell you in 30 degrees heat pasta with the seafood isn't a great idea, but it was only appealing food on the menu. Pasta came horribly al dente and we both didn't finish our meal. Wasn't worth it. Also it was so packed that they sit people the way that they stare at you while you eat.... Buratta and tomatoes were good.

    It's a very consistent experience at Eataly. The pasta is fresh - that fettuccine is sauced just right - and not heavy, the cheese selection is good. The pork cheese is tender, melts in your mouth and the mashed is puffy!

    What is there not to like about Eataly I could spend hours here looking at all the Italian goodies. Amazing bread and delicious coffee and pastries

    Tortelli de zucca burro e salvi
    Cinthia K.

    Came here for dinner during our last night in Italy as my partner's former colleague suggested meeting up here. There are Eataly locations all over now, but I never thought to come by for dinner. I believe there are a couple of different restaurants within, but we went to their pizza and pasta restaurant specifically. I got their tortelli di zucca burro e salvi, which consisted of 4 very large tortellini that were filled with ricotta, sage, brown sugar, and sweet potato. It was good, albeit on the pricier side. Not exactly a light meal also, and I felt quite full afterwards. Eataly has good quality food stuffs, so I imagine their restaurants should also have that same kind of high quality mark to them. A "safe" overall bet if you're not sure what to eat, if you happen to be in this part of Milan.

    A huge grocery store filled with many different meats, cheeses, and bottles of wine! There are lots of options to eat here, we had a nice sit down dinner where they served us Carbonara, excellent Tiramisu, and a seafood entree. Service was great and the atmosphere was outstanding.

    I came here 9:30 in the morning and it was pretty amazing! The bakery just put out some fresh bread so got to try some fresh samples of focaccia here! They have so many flavors and varieties, I bought the dolce focaccia, it was slightly sweat and was so good, fluffy and fresh. They also have a coffee bar, so I grabbed a cappuccino and a croissant, it was probably a bit more expensive than outside at a smaller cafe. Since it was still early in the morning, I got to explore the whole store and see everything it had to offer without really bumping into anybody and I felt like I had the whole store to myself. Even this early in the morning, they had people giving various samples of things, for example I also had some panettone cake. They have a huge selection of Italian foods and snacks, you can consider buying some gifts here or something Italian for yourself! It's foremost a store for Italians, not something for tourists but it definitely is easy for tourists to visit here. They make some cheeses here, have gelatos, wine, gelato, seafood, butcher shop, and almost anything you can think of. I was pleasantly surprised so much in this store by just exploring it, so much hidden surprises! I'd recommend coming here during lunch or dinner too so you can experience the full food experience while exploring the groceries.

    June 23, 2019 Sunday - 8:45 PM for dinner 2 Adults Atmosphere - 4 stars Food - 5 stars Service - 5 stars This is for Il ristorante della Pasta e della Pizza Background - Our long day of flying from San Francisco to Milan we planned a walk from hotel to Eataly. We wanted to see the whole place and experience it. Atmosphere - This restaurant is located upstairs. The only real complaint is the tables are too close. I could easily take food from the table next to us. I actually had a conversations with a local couple. They were curious where in America we were from. Food Drinks - La Vola Basso IPA a local beer, they actually had four beers all together from the same local brewery. Dinner - First night in Italy you know I am ordering pizza. My daughter-in-law and I both ordered a pizza and share and half with each other. The Diavola is a classic pepperoni pizza and the Parma which is fancy Italian ham. I know I did not give justice to the beautiful ham. Please look at my pictures to understand this ham better. In classic Italian style the pizzas came out uncut allowing you to select the perfect slice yourself. A sharper knife would have been great. But that pizza was magical. Service - Our waitress was great. Every table has a number and when finished you pay at the register by providing your number. Future - Yes please, need more pizza.

    sheer happiness

    Get the Fior di Latte soft-serve here. It is, literally, the best you can get this side of Hokkaido (and if that means nothing to you, well, you're missing out). It's one of those things where you go "Oh, so *that* is what milk is supposed to taste like!"

    Food is an important part of the Italian culture, and this place exemplifies this importance. Welcome to the Milano branch of perhaps the world's most famous Italian supermarket chain, Eataly! Once you walk into this three-story tall food department store, you'll find that food is not only merely sustenance but also a lifestyle and almost an art. Like other Eataly throughout the world but more, this branch has a large selection of high-quality goods, ranging from prepared food to cooking ingredients to fresh produce. Just going through this store is an experience of itself! Sadly, don't expect to be walking out with baskets of awesome Italian goods if you are on a budget, because prices here are as high as the quality compared to standard Italian supermarkets. Of course, it's hard to resist the temptation to at least buy one of two things in this wonderful food paradise. Whether you intend to buy anything though, you should certainly buy to mark this as a shopping or a sightseeing destination because this Eataly is truly a great representation of the diverse Italian food cultures all under one roof in a stylish display!

    The supermarket was very clean and organized. Prices were average. I wouldn't say it's to tourist…read morefriendly. None of the staff was very welcoming or willingly looking to provide customer service. They do have a good selection of local products available. One weird thing for me being American was. They kept their eggs on shelves instead of the cooler section. I will say one thing that made this place a "Do not return" spot for me was the there was several rotten fruits and vegetables left mixed in with the others. You can tell they had been there for days and no one checks. They charge for bags here so keep that in mind and plan accordingly. I will say I like the hrs of operation.

    Date of visit: May 27, 2025…read more I wanted to bring back some pasta for my employees and rather than hitting up a tourist spot featuring overpriced pasta shaped like gondolas, I found a grocery store where locals were more likely to buy their pasta. There was a decent selection of pasta at a very good price, with several brands outside of the store brand available for purchase. The store was clean and in good condition; really the only things that I didn't like was the unfriendliness of the person staffing the self-checkouts (no greeting or acknowledgement at all) and that despite the checkout having an English option, the receipt still printed in Italian. Seems like an easy fix!
