I'm not saying it can't happen, but I may need a minute to pull that one off! The decor is sleek and modern. The customer service is impeccable and the cocktails were carefully crafted. A young sophisticated crowd comes in around 9:30pm and they stay open till about 2am. After a stressful day in language class we needed this place. We could have gotten a better deal during happy hour, if we had come for apperitivo, where you get food with your drink purchase. But they do provide bar snacks olives and fruit. Each seating area is designed for privacy, but gives you an open space view to people watch. Downstairs you can buy some of the latest Armani apparel or peruse the bookstore. It's just a really nice place to visit!

Armani Bamboo Bar/ Restaurant Milan…read more This modern, chic restaurant serves good food in a pretty space. We stopped in for lunch and were surprised that the restaurant was virtually empty. While the hostess/initial server was a very abrupt, very haughty (with more than a tad of condescension) unpleasant, British woman, (so unpleasant that we were going to leave) the rest of the staff was better, some staff members even rising to the level of gracious. GianPaulo, for example, was attentive, accommodating and very pleasant, so we stayed. We opted to share the shrimp appetizer, which was quite tasty. We then opted for the salmon poke and seared tuna salad (their version of the nicoise). The salmon poke was not bad. The seared tuna salad excelled in both plating and flavor. The tuna was fresh and lightly seared, and the vegetables were also fresh and prepared perfectly al dente. As the restaurant was quite empty, after the initial unpleasantness, we enjoyed a peaceful, relaxing lunch. While we wouldn't "rush back" to Bamboo Bar, it's well located, has a pleasant ambiance, and the seared tuna salad was quite good.

I went to meet some friends here for an apperitivo on a rainy day and the pretentiousness was so…read morenasty I couldn't stomach walking in the door! I wish I could give zero stars. I should mention that we were all well dressed, jackets, dresses etc. everyone looked great... When we arrived the doorman stopped us at the hostess's stand to insist I place my $500 or so handmade Italian umbrella in the front door's overflowing and chaotic umbrella bucket. I calmly showed him my plastic umbrella bag I bring with me for this exact situation, told him "it's not a problem," put my umbrella inside the bag and started walking in. He stopped my fiancée and I and said either the umbrella goes in the front door's bucket or I go outside. Of course, everyone knows umbrellas in an establishment's umbrella bin are considered public property by Italians. My fiancée calmly explained to him it was too expensive for the bin and he said "I don't care!" Then comes the most pretentious part- he said it needed to be left in the bin for "security purposes" Imagine! To stop all umbrellas! I was able to bring my umbrella into an event with president Obama but not Roialto! We looked around and saw no one but normal younger Italians all overdressed to appease their obviously snobby hosts. No VIPs important enough for their own security detail anyway. At that point and not so calmly, I told him where he could put all of his umbrellas and I left. Our friends were already seated and I told my fiancée outside I would get a drink elsewhere while they were there. Once we did everyone complained about the snobby eye-rolling service they got from staff there, even the Filipini buffet servers. Yelp! I recommend not troubling these people since they are obviously the only ones 'cool enough' to be around themselves. It will save your evening as well.

In a vast former industrial space, it is divided up into mini lounge areas, each furnished with 1950s' furniture and art.

Stylist interior, lots of waiters, great music and a roof top terrace is all part of "Milano". But for me the whole thing falls apart when I go to the restrooms - here there are 4 in total (shared between genders) 3 (THREE) of those are STANDING HOLE toilets... yeah, like those in China, India etc., and the last one (which I used) was a "normal" toilet, but with the seat missing. Good luck to all girls.. This is, for me, a complete and utterly disgrace to its customers. The drinks, food etc. was good, but don't let me squat if I need to use the toilet..
