This is a chain restaurant in Italy- I went in Milan. They weren't my first choice but being a…read moreSunday morning, I didn't have a plethora of options. They have a set brunch menu but I decided just to get some blueberry pancakes. It was about €11 for two blueberry pancakes which is fine but I felt like it was a little over priced for what I got. Overall the food was totally fine. I'm an American so I can't critique the Italian too much. I wanted to order a chai latte but my waiter either hadn't heard of that or they didn't have them. The restaurant itself was super nice though really cute and comfortable. You also pay at the front rather than with a server.

They're big on bread and light on meat. Would much rather see smaller portions and the right proportion of bread to meat to veggies. A minor complaint. Oh, outside the pigeons get right up in your food. Waiters coming by to shoo them away briskly only led to trying to prevent feathers from falling into your food. Sit inside if you think Pigeons are just flying rats that should be exterminated.

I wasn't fucking around so GF and I schlepped the 20+ minute walk over to this place from the city's center. It's small and unassuming which is part of its charm. We arrived literally in the nick of time because there were a few tables left, one of which we were able to snag immediately after placing our order. As we were finishing up, the place had become a bustling mad house and there was already a queue waiting for our table. I LOVE the fact that this place offers vegetarian and vegan options of which GF and I took full advantage. I ordered one of their vegan offerings with zucchini, eggplant, cherry tomatoes, and hummus. This was super hearty and I loved how full of veggies it was but they were a little heavy on the olive oil which is probably standard fare for Italians. For me, it was too much. GF ordered a vegetarian piada with mushrooms, zucchini, and cheese. She says it "was amazing" and that she "really enjoyed it". They have a million other variations depending on your preferences and prices are super reasonable.

I'm a bit disappointed by this place, i had very high expectations based on the stellar reviews. As…read moresoon as I got in I saw a mountain of pre-sliced cured meats, amassed on the preparation counter in open air, which was not a good sign to me. Service was pretty quick, maybe due to the pre-sliced meats actually, but the prosciutto crudo in both the piadina we got was tough, and not soft to the bite as it should be. It was very difficult to eat, because you got a big chunk of prosciutto at every bite due to its toughness. The piadina were filled generously and looked great. So many good things about this place, but finally my eating experience was sub optimal. I don't think I'll be back.

If you are a regular and have it figured out, it seems to work. However, with a language barrier and being the first time here, we needed some time before we could figure out the system. There was no clear menu at the cashier, no staff to ask or a flow to follow. Everyone just seems to mill around and try to catch the attention of the servers behind the bar. If it takes a minute for you to order at the cashier, you get the distinct feeling that you are in the way and holding up the world behind you. Once we finally ordered blindly, the got our items it was a lot more relaxed. There are plenty of small and large tables, providing more than enough seats since everyone was drinking at the counter and leaving. Be forewarned that tea is ALOT more expensive than any coffee based drink. Like multiple times more expensive. Food was okay, it was enough to start the day but nothing spectacular. For the price of the items, I would much rather go somewhere less chaotic.

Love the entrance because it's automatic. WHOO HOO! The interior is super cute, reminds me of a cafe in New York City. LOVEEEE! It was a little bright thought but then again, I was half awake and in need of coffee. I was a little disappointed in the size of the americano. I thought I would get a HUGE cup of Joe like I would at Tizzy's. I had to order two but that still was not enough, but it was only 1 euro. I tried pancakes because I wanted breakfast even though it was lunch time. I didn't even bother looking at anything else on the menu. It came with two thin pancakes and fruit. I loved the fruit but I wished the pancakes were thicker and fluffier. There was no sitting fee. YAY! My pancakes was 10 euros and each cup of americano was 1 euro. So it was a well spent 12 euros. Service is excellent, the place is clean and very modern. I will come again to try the other food and do a review update till then you should totally give this place a try!

They have approximately 40 plus tables for full capacity. There are tons of stuff on the menu. It reminded me of the Cheesecake Factory menu. I ordered the scrambled eggs with toast and fresh cut fruit and it tasted awesome. This place is another local favorite and I think on both occasions we and another table were the only tourists as most tables were occupied by Milanese folks. We didn't get to try any of the desserts as we went pretty early in the morning but I bet you they most probably were excellent too. 5 star breakfast spot in the central Milan area. Would recommend going there once on your trip to Milan.

The restaurant itself is pretty clean, and on the wall you can see autographs of celebrities -- even a famous soccer player (I think the Brazilian star Ronaldo?). You can definitely tell this place is well-known. That said, I do find it a bit pricey. One panini costs about 15 euros, and we asked the chef to cut it in half so the two of us could share. The ingredients definitely seem high quality, but as tourists, our palates might not be refined enough to appreciate all the subtle flavors. To me, it just tasted a bit salty, probably because of the ham (I think it was prosciutto crudo?). Overall, I'd say it's worth a try if you're curious or want to experience a place with a bit of fame, but just know that it's on the pricey side.
