Seated very quickly, nice clean restaurant and nice waiters although language barrier made ordering a bit clunky. My wife got the ravioli while my friend and I got the bolognese lasagna. My wife said the ravioli was good not great and our lasagna was very tasty but room temperature. I like my food hot. The other person at our table got salmon and it was way overcooked and very tough. Not sure why our other party got Salmon at an Italian restaurant in Italy but to each his own. If you want a glass of wine you only have two choices, white wine and red wine. No other available. This is probably because the restaurant doesn't carry large inventories of wine due to their small size and cost. Overall no way is this above an average restaurant. It's just okay. Heat up your lasagna better, teach your chef how to cook Salmon and expand your glasses of wine selections.

I really liked the crispness of the outer layer of the dough, but it still had a nice chewy center. I had a version with beef ragu on top and it ended up being a filling meal.

I was reassured by the large line of Italians outside before opening as well. Kind people and fast service. Would not recommend. The pizza was incredibly disappointing. Crust was great, but limited toppings with poor flavor. The margarita pizza, a classic, was basically all sauce (that tasted like tomato paste from a can) and one leaf of basil. The drinks had far too much syrup and tasted like Jolley ranchers. Maybe there have been so many good reviews that they have become lazy? Or maybe we hit them on a bad day?

Lunch!

The pizza was overly doughy and the tomato sauce lacked in flavor. It honestly tasted like the pizza you'd get in an American mall. Definitely looks a lot better than it tastes!

The pizza here is quite affordable, about 8 euros per slice, but don't be fooled: each slice is huge. One slice could easily be enough for two people, but we were starving and ended up getting one each. The pizza is very thick, almost like a deep dish, but what stood out to me was the crispy bottom -- that's the part I loved the most. It's definitely indulgent (lots of carbs and oil), but it's absolutely delicious. If you're near the Duomo in Milan and looking for a quick, satisfying bite of pizza, I'd definitely recommend stopping by.

The prices are fair, the menu is standard (offers standard dishes you want to try in Milan.) The veal milano was too heavy, I'd prefer the ones in Vienna. Maybe because it's fried in butter. 6/10 my family said. Didn't finish it. The Osso Buco was fair. Small portion didn't finish either. The appetizer of Scallops was fine, a bit too salty. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was good. Of course you are dining where the opera performers dine whatever that means to you. It's a pretty standard tourist meal, but not pricy. Checklist item I'd say.

I think the best thing that we ate was probably the chocolate salami as it's this fudgy biscuit with whipped cream on the side.
