They were accommodating with my dairy allergy, though it was only possible to order the 5 course tasting (which was more than enough with the wine pairing).

The food here is OK but the service is very slow. I live in an apartment above the restaurant so I…read morethought I might as well try it. They have NO English menu and do NOT speak English. This is very unfortunate. I somehow figured out enough on the menu to decide to get the cheese with tomatoes in a pan with pita to start, and then I got a chicken/cheese salad. Also, no such thing as free water here. So you better wanna spend big and wait a long time to get your food... I don't really know anyone who sets out to do that. It was 7:00 PM in the restaurant was very empty. Weird. The decorations are very tacky and the wait staff are very rude. They could not give a care in the world about whether or not your food is coming, and they just stand there all day on their phones! It's took about 30 minutes for my first dish to come, and then 20 minutes for my salad to come... Kind of ridiculous... No wonder overall this place has 3 stars. The food won't kill you... But the service might. Gosh. Would it kill these people to be apologetic about how long the food takes to be prepared... that's what waiters are supposed to do.

The service was attentive and the waiters (I went multiple times in the months that I was in Milano) were patient and helpful in explaining the dishes. Itaka had some wonderful "fusion" style offerings and delicious wine. Give them a try. The place has a pleasing yet fresh casual atmosphere and tasty dishes. PS-Maybe we should cut them a little slack if they resolutely refused to learn English in Italy. Whoda thunk?

But after eating at some fine restaurants with homemade melt in your mouth pasta, this cannot compete. If you are looking for general pasta, this would be fine. I had the fave bean soup which was delicious but the greens in it were too hard to cut and eat. We also ordered the fried zucchini flower... yes I understood it would be fried but it is such a delicate food, I didn't think it would be heavily coated and cooked to a crisp. Too heavy a preparation for such a beautifully delicate vegetable. My friend loved the Norma, so that must have been good. To be fair, we have been going to top restaurants in Milano... this was a last minute late night snack/meal choice near our hotel. Again, staff was great. Just not my cup of tea.

Along with the bread and cover charge, they give a small little platter of antipasti with sun-dried tomatoes, and other accruements. The lentil soup was really filling with barley and croutons on top. we also got a potato cream pasta with seafood, which was really unique since I haven't ever had anything like it before. The highlight of the meal was probably the meatballs because the acidity of the tomato sauce was able to counteract the other two dishes. Since coming to Italy, I've been kind of confused on whether to pay at the register or whether the check is being brought to you, but for this restaurant, you go to the register to pay.

I…read moredidn't have a reservation but came right at 730 opening and the staff were able to fit me in provided I finished within 1 hour. I tried to paparadelle with rabbit ragu and the slow cooked veal with vegetables. While to food seemed well cooked both lacked flavor and seemed a bit bland in my opinion. The ambience was nice homey feel to it. ~$40+ without wine for one person. Easy 10 min walk from central station.

I was hoping to try the Ossobuco, but it was not on the lunch Menu. I decided to go with a lighter fare, mix salad and the Milan mixed cold platter. Not my normal route, but I only had a day to eat through Milan. Simple but everything with executed well. Milan cold platter consisted of minced head cheese, cream-like fondue cheese, zucchini stuffedwith an onion jam, and select cured meat. Very local . I believe I was the only tourist. The waiters speak limited English, and there is no translated menu. However, the staff were very accommodating. 8 minute walk from Centrale station.

I should have expected that the salad wouldn't be "nutritiously-filling", since it was mostly iceberg lettuce, onions, apples, and halloumi cheese blocks. They gave some tzatziki sauce on the side (neverrrr enough!) and some quarters of soft pita bread, but in my opinion, it was not worth 9 euros... The décor was nice though!

Kind of screwed over me and my friend by charging us $14 EACH for grappa without telling us what…read morethe price was when we asked aboutil it. The waiter told me as I was leaving "I hope you won't leave us a bad review" and I'm like bro you just screwed us both so....yeah bad review incoming. He's making the claim he had the right to charge us this this because it "wasn't on the menu" and I'm like well if it's not on the menu then maybe don't f****** serve it or tell us how much it costs. I pointed out to this asshat at the time, too, that he didn't tell us that it was going to be that much, which is AT THE LEAST a courtesy. I don't think my friend could afford it, but I could, and that's pretty unfortunate considering that he really screwed us over, and I did not expect to spend $60 on dinner tonight for 3 glasses of wine and a pizza with a TINY glass of grappa at the end. If you must stop, only for glass of wine or 2, but don't do anything more because apparently you will definitely get FUCKED on the bill, so definitely make sure you read your bill before you leave too.... You know what, in hindsight I just wouldn't come here. But I didn't get dessert that probably would of cost me $20 more. Luxury dining prices with McDonald's quality, shame because the evening started out so promising, but the female bartender left and that made it a man's world with single female diners. Poor dude is just sad to be going home alone after he heard I was single. Enjoy your blue-balls asshole, you can use the money you charged us, probably as a tip, to buy some smokes once you're done with your right hand. And yeah, here's my negative review you cheap SOB. Damn if you weren't the worst waiter in my 7 weeks of vacation. Enjoy and by the way congratulations because you're the first waiter in 7 weeks that has actually charged me for grappa. Everyone else has just been excited to share their culture but you saw dollar signs. What goes around comes around, son. At least I'm not you. Also, as an American, I still tip for good service. You could've gotten an honest tip, but you're just a douchebag who couldn't give two girls the heads up that you were going to charge us the equivalent of a cocktail for what was basically a shot. At least I made friend, everything else was a crapshoot.
