Honestly, I was pretty disappointed overall. Both the food and service were poor. My husband ordered the risotto and I had the zucchini shrimp pasta. Both tasted like they'd been frozen beforehand and were among the worst meals we've had in Italy. What made it worse was the service. We were completely ignored the entire time. When we did get served, it was no eye contact and just staring at us to tell the server what we wanted (and that was after I had to wave them down!) At first, I thought they were giving us privacy, but everyone around us had their tables cleared and were offered dessert while we sat with our finished plates for at least five minutes. When we finally got up to leave, they stopped us to offer dessert, which was a nice gesture, but by then, the experience had already soured. There was no music playing either, making the whole meal feel awkwardly silent. With so many great options in Milan, I wouldn't recommend this one. read more

not your typical italian spot, but one of my favorite meals i had in italy! their carbonara is delightfully creamy with crispy bacon pieces. their ribeye is unforgettable with the flavorful sauce and soft texture. they even nailed their salad with soft slices of octopus. we tried many dishes and enjoyed them so much that we came back two days later. beyond the food, the service is amazing! the employees are extremely friendly and gave us several items on the house. i would come back to milan just to come here again. read more

Met the owner. He was extremely nice. The food was exceptional and would 100% eat there again. Service was fast and helpful in choosing the right wine for the meal. read more

We were in Milan for a week and ate there twice. First time was merely because they were open when no one else was. I'm so happy we were forced to dine here. The food ended up being so good we brought our friends back a couple of days later. I'm already missing the food and I've only been home a couple of days. If in doubt, ask the owner what to order. She will not let you order something that isn't their BEST. I suggest the mussels and the lobster spaghetti "spaghetti all'astice". The restaurant itself is nothing fancy. But who cares. The food is amazing and it's not over priced. read more

Woooooow!!! This place... Geezus! Absolutely divine. Absolutely the BEST meal that I had during my trip to Italy. Like, hands down. Pasta doesn't get any better than this, folks! So let me preface; the name of the restaurant is actually LE Chalet (French), but of course, Yelp won't let me change it. It's a restaurant with a French name and an Asian staff, but the food is so incredibly authentic, fresh, and flavorful. This place came highly recommended by a local in the area. I was completely skeptical until I took my first bite. This is what love feels like. The pasta is exceptional here!!! This isn't the fanciest place, but the service is stellar and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Definitely a local's gem kind of spot. A comfortable place with comforting food. The menu options are insane!!! Every type of pasta and pizza that your little heart could ever even think of is on that menu. AND, the prices are insanely affordable for the high quality and quantity of food that you'll receive. I mean, the menu is literally pages long. Usually when I see menus like this, it intimidating because it seems like too much for one restaurant to handle. Not sure about the other entrees on the menu, but our food was made with so much love. Of course, we had to go with the local's suggestion; Tagliatelle with shrimp scampi and asparagus. Y'all... my eyes are rolling to the back of my head just THINKING about it. First of all, the Tagliatelle noodles were handmade and SCRUMPTIOUS!!! The perfect amount of firmness and chewiness. The asparagus and shrimp were incredibly fresh and there was no shortage of either one in this dish. And that SAUCE! Daaamniiittt! So creamy and full of elegant flavors. I mean, I could have died. It was just so, so, soooo delightful. Pasta can be pretty filling in general, but this massively hearty portion filled me up with ease. One thing that I love about Italy is that their house wines are top tier and dirt cheap. I ordered a glass of house white and they brought over a pitcher (which made 2 large glasses). It was only €3 for 2 glasses of wine! And it was GOOD too! I honestly would have purchased a bottle, but my friend doesn't drink. At the end of our meal, they gave us a complimentary limoncello dessert in a champagne glass. It was extremely tart but still refreshing after that big ol' meal. That pasta gave us the 'itis booooyyy! So stuffed and satisfied. Been dreaming about that pasta ever since I left. This will be a necessary dinner stop when I find myself back in Milan. Hook, line and sinker. read more

This place has amazing food, great service and a nice cozy atmosphere. We ate here on Saturday night and we are going back on Monday for our last meal in Italy. read more

After reading the reviews being our first time in Milan, we naturally had to give this HIDDEN GEM a whirl. We entered the restaurant with 1 Yelp optimist and 2 skeptics. Needless to say, we left as 3 patrons for life. The gnocchi will appear in our dreams and the risotto will forever be a part of our souls. We left with full bellies and happy hearts. The lemonchello did not disappoint, whether frozen or not, we left with a blissful sweet tartness that will not soon be forgotten. read more

Lovely experience at this restaurant, I felt so comfortable especially because I don't speak Italian and thankfully enough the workers here speak English! The food here reminded me of food my mom would cook and that was super comforting. Food was fresh, Highly recommend! read more

Good and extensive menu. I had risotto with seafood - large portions and reasonably priced. Chinese owned so many Asian clientele. Enjoyed their tiramusu desert. read more

We went to this place bc it was super close to our AirBnB and was amazed. On our two week trip to Italy (Rome, Florence, Venice, and more), this was one of the best Italian food we had. We ordered crab spaghetti: mussels, clams, shrimp, and squid; and crawfish (singular) and shrimp spaghetti; and fried calamari. The owner took our orders himself and recommended a great local Italian champagne. The place was fairly affordable, we spent around 120 euros for 4 people but the champagne itself was 27 euros. We felt very welcomed by the staff and would definitely come back in the future. read more

One of the best Italian restaurants (and inexpensive for the quality) I have been to in Italy so far! Menu is extensive and they had great pasta dishes. Only 8 euro for a lot of their plates. Plus it comes with a free lemon dessert! Staff was very friendly. read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Milan. You know a restaurant is good if you constantly see locals coming into the restaurant, especially the employees from the train station. Don't forget the Limoncello. Try the seafood pasta its delicious. read more

Where do I begin. We were famished and stopped at the first restaurant we saw. It happened to be this one. We were greeted by a non-Italian man (should have been a sign) and seated right away by a very friendly waitress. I ordered the caprese for our antipasto. The mozzarella was fine but the tomatoes were hard and bitter. At the same time, we were brought out a bread basket with 2 huge bottles of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I was a little confused and wondered why they wouldn't downsize the bottles. Onto our primi. I ordered the risotto milanese and my boyfriend ordered a pizza with sausage. His pizza was mediocre (tasted like a regular pizza from an American pizza shop, not like a delicious, authentic Italian pizza). My risotto was dreadful! I was so hungry that I had a few bites though and tried to make it seem like I ate some. The rice was hard, dry, and flavorless. In comparison, on my flight home I was served some risotto milanese and it was so much better than what I ordered here. Airplane food shouldn't be better than restaurant food. I wish we would have just walked one more block. Had we, we would have probably had a delicious dinner since the place was packed with locals. We were 2 of the 4 people eating here. So sad. read more

I would not even give them 1 star. Pathetic food with disgusting service. I ordered a normal margerita pizza which was bland with old tasteless cheese on it. Also ordered spaghetti with clams which was under cooked. I was waiting to be seated then waiting to give order then to get food and then to get the check. Not worth my time at all. Trust me, spend your evening someplace better. read more

The worst place I have ever been to (and I travel a lot)! Embarrassment of Italy! Sadly, this was my last stop before flying out and I really regret it. Food was disgusting. Pasta (if you can call it that) was more than overcooked (mashed potatoes are harder) and on the top of that they'll charge you 2.50 per person for being there. In addition, the staff (and the worst one was the boss) was uncompromising, rude, arrogant and shameless... read more

Decent italian food. Very well priced and very good service. The portion is great. The rice for their risotto is bomb. House wine is quite good as well, although im not much of a wine connoisseur. read more
