We made a reservation for 10pm but weren't seated until around 11 because the place was so busy. However we were randomly seated in a huge private dining room as only a group of 4, which made up for it. We only saw locals dining inside which was a promising sign! Everything we ordered was delicious!! Lots of amazing seafood options which is a nice break from pizza and pasta. The poppy crusted seated tuna was amazing. Loved the cod ravioli with a bit of pickled cabbage and fresh cherry tomatoes which I thought was very unique. I don't normally love zucchini or cherry tomatoes but everything was great. Highly recommend the creamed cod polenta appetizer as well. The fried seafood was very fresh and not dry at all, and also a huge portion! We ended with 3 solid desserts -- tiramisu, apple soufflé, and berry cheesecake. All were phenomenal. The cheesecake turned out to be almost like yogurt, which was unexpected, but soo good! I love yogurt so I was sold. Great service as well and very English friendly. They have a bar next door in case you want to grab drinks before or after too. Highly recommend -- what an incredible meal!!

This review concerns the bar not the restaurant…read more Cozy/cool bar with a very interesting cocktail menu. Funny: they even have "aged" cocktails in an oak barrel. Each cocktail on the menu has an indication of how sweet and how alcoholic from 1 to 5 which is very useful to know in advance. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. All in all thumbs up even if it can get pretty loud (i.e. perhaps not ideal if you wanna talk to someone).

On the 8th floor of the COIN Building in Piazza Cinque Giornate, you'll find a nightlife staple, with sophisticated restaurant design and unique charm. I opted for lunch on the terrace, which offered a breathtaking view of the city. I was able to relax and sip a glass of wine while the city bustled below. I started my lunch with the "raw special" dish, consisting of slices of raw tuna, salmon, amberjack, and swordfish. I also indulged in raw Sicilian prawns, which came highly recommended by the server. Absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, the raw seafood definitely got me excited for my main course. Scrumptious Kobe rump steak tataki, topped with a creamy bean sauce and sweet caramelized red onions has to be the most wonderful thing I've ever tasted. The meat was tender and juicy, and the creaminess of the sauce complimented it perfectly. Even though I had enjoyed every last bite of my food and was feeling full, I knew I just had to try dessert. I opted for something light - the raspberry parfait in mango sauce - because fruit is always a great way to end a meal, right? Right! The parfait was topped with a red, ripe strawberry, which I saved for last, of course. I can't wait to come back to Globe and enjoy a cocktail, unwind in the lounge, and even try their dinner menu. The whole experience was amazing, from the views on the rooftop to the great food, and the friendly servers. I can't think of a better way to enjoy delicious cuisine in Milan, other than dining at Globe Restaurant and Lounge.

Wow, Il Tempio d'Oro is missing an English review. How comes?…read more This is one of the "secret" places of the Milanese "Aperitivo" (happy hour), the pre-dinner drink which comes with a buffet dinner of its own :-) The offering of Il Tempio d'Oro during their happy hour is quite good and extensive, can happily substitute dinner, and the drinks and beers are all good and not terribly expensive. Outside buffet hours, the menu is still very good, but not that cheap. The place is very informal/"alternative" style, and can accomodate groups, maybe not extremely large ones. Pets are welcome :-)

We stopped in here on a Saturday night for the infamous "apertivo."…read more This is a no frills place, with lots of tables crammed too close together. I felt like we were packed in like sardines - it was impossible to get to our table or for the servers to get through. The service was also very slow. It was fairly busy because of the apertivo hours, but there were at least 4 servers, and considering the size of the place, it shouldn't have taken as long as it did for service. We had to flag someone down to order because nobody ever came to help us. Anyhow, this is definitely a great spot for apertivo. If you aren't sure what that is - it's like happy hour, except you get food along with your drink purchase. Prices were reasonable - I had the largest Hoegaarden I've ever seen and it was only 6 euros. They set up a pretty sizeable buffet, which you are free to enjoy as many times as you'd like. The food was pretty good and it was a decent selection. If you are in the area, it's definitely worth checking out!

The apperitivo here was pretty good and reasonably priced, no more than about 8 or 10 euros; there was a variety of snacks including fresh fruit, pizza, meatballs, and salad. We were worried that we would not get seating, because this place is a real hot spot. Luckily there were other people there who knew my friends, so they put two tables together for us. White leather seats, glass tables, I felt like I was in Miami for a moment, definitely a contemporary American influence. I enjoyed being here on a Friday evening, Milano is expensive, since the subway stops running at midnight; this was a nice middle ground from a club. You can go back on the train to avoid paying cab fare. Although, this spot is not metro accessible you have to take about a 10 to 15 minute walk from Cardusio or Grand Centrale Station. But the beauty of it is that there did not appear to be a lot of other places quite like this, and because of its exclusive/somewhat excluded location Deseo attracts a very sensible crowd.
