We came here for dinner on our first night in Milan. It was about a 7 minute walk from our hotel…read moreand had a nice view of the Duomo. Downstairs hosts a plethora of wines and upstairs is where you eat. We wanted to sit by the window so we can admire the Duomo but the sun was glaring in our eyes so we sat somewhere else. We started off our meal with anchovies swimming in olive oil that paired perfectly with buttered bread. My main dish was the saffron risotto and Ossobucco ( a Milanese staple). The veal was so soft that it melted right in my mouth. My brother ordered the Mezze Maniche alla carbonara with black truffles. Are there better restaurants in nearby? Absolutely!! But this wasn't bad for our first meal in Milan.

We enjoyed a group lunch at Signorvino adjacent to Duomo de Milan after a private tour of the…read morecathedral. The food and service were good, and the wine selection was very good. The second floor provided a more quiet setting than the first floor, which is really more part of the outside sidewalk seating... nice people watching, but very noisy! LOL The pre-set menu we had included a meat and appetizer tray, pasta, chicken cutlet, dessert and cappuccino ... we returned to the restaurant a second time for a quick bite when back in Milan before our trip home. The menu is a bit limited, so we settled for a small meat/cheese tray. Great location at this spot. For a chain restaurant, the fare is good! Cute plates too! Recommend Signorvino.

One of our waiters was the son of the lifelong family barber (gotta love Italian families!). Menus in well-written English for the American family member (me) were well received plus an extraordinarily welcoming staff. We were given a table in an area that provided privacy for a nursing mother at the table as well as a tired three year-old.
