It's also fairly nice and clean. 4/5 ATMOSPHERE: They have most of their seating inside, but there's a few tables right outside too. We sat outside and liked it. 4/5 SELECTION: Their menu isn't that big, but I appreciate that they have a lot of clearly-marked vegan options, and a lot of it is more unique for Italy -- i.e. it's not just another typical Italian tourist-trap-type restaurant. 4/5 WHAT I GOT: I got their Bosco Veggy, which is their vegan mix dish of the day. On the day I was there, it was a brown rice mix with mix-ins and toppings, black beans, zucchini, and some little cracker thing. It was the best meal I had while in Milan. The brown rice mix tasted unique and I'm not sure all that was in there, but it was tasty. The black beans tasted as expected, and the zucchini was good too -- it just could've been could a tad bit more thoroughly, but it wasn't a big deal. Anyways, all the ingredients tasted fresh and of good quality. The only major negative was that it was garnished with too much oil, especially the zucchini. But, other than that, it was great. And everyone else in my group liked their meals a lot too, so I'd definitely recommend this place. 4/5 SERVICE: The service was great. The employees were all really attentive and friendly. And our food came out in good timing. 4/5

I sought out this mostly plant based restaurant before visiting Milan. Made reservations tonight…read moreand so happy I did. Service was friendly and as usual most Italians speak English and were happy to converse in our language. I need to learn Italian! The wine list is excellent. I tried an Italian Gewürztraminer which was exceptional. Also tried an Italian Sauvignon Blanc equally unique. They have some omni dishes I think with fish, but I only looked at the clearly marked vegan options which were plentiful. From first courses to dessert, everything was hot and well made. The interior is cozy and beautifully designed. You can come from work or dress casual. Come as you are. I'll be back to eat and drink at this gem.

They needed a little extra help this night as I think there was only one server. There was also a private party in the back. Wine selections are mostly organic (if not all). Reasonable prices too. We ordered a bread plate, cheese plate, seitan steak, and pizza (not shown). When we sat down, we were told there was no vegan mozzarella. This changed a few dishes for sure. The pizza would have been much better with it, but was still very good. The cheese platter and seitan steak were stand outs for us. The vegan cheeses made by the owner would make any omnivore go vegan. In fact, we came back the next day to purchase cheese and dessert to go. Soooo worth it. I wish they shipped to the US. Had we stayed longer, we would have eaten here every other day. We will definitely be back. This is the best vegan Italian restaurant in Milan!

My sister had the tagliatelle bolognese which was pretty good and my boyfriend had pomodoro spaghetti with shrimp, also good. We shared a bottle of Lambrusco for the table which was nicely chilled. Thanks for the great meal and service!

I dined alone and don't speak Italian, but the staff went above and beyond at every step. From explaining the dishes, to the wine pairings, to the number of staff perfecting every detail (at one point, I counted 8 staff members in a room of about 10 tables). When the bread came (with the course of vegetables in a circle in a jelly like sauce) I asked if I was supposed to eat the dish with the bread and the waiter said "you're in Italy, you eat bread when your heart tells you". I loved how unpretentious and sincere the comment was, especially when it is easy to feel overwhelmed by fine dining. The food was so delicious that my eyes watered on a couple of bites. Highlights were the amuse bouche (the dish with the sprouts growing) and the baba ganoush wrapped in dehydrated tomato (the dish with the slices of tomato), and the housemade red bean tempeh (far left in the picture with bread). The only lowlight was the mushroom (far right in the picture with bread). It's been several decades since I've eaten meat, but it had a really weird mouth feel similar to what I remember a glob of grisly animal fat to feel like.

Despite its Michelin star and vegetarian focus, both the food and service fell well below expectations. From the start, we felt pressured to purchase expensive wine before even settling in. The restaurant offers separate vegetarian and vegan tasting menus, but when I wanted vegetarian and my wife vegan, we were firmly told this wasn't allowed. A senior staff member even came over to explain--quite patronizingly--that we 'didn't know our food' and had to choose one menu for both of us. Most dishes were mediocre at best, making the Michelin recognition hard to understand. Even basic details like torn table napkins reflected a lack of care. Overall, this was not the special experience we hoped for, and I would not recommend Joia.

Heard great things online, recommend by chatGPT and booked a reservation…read more Small place, friendly service, but time limit on the table, so if the service is a bit slow, you might be mid dessert and you're being asked to leave when the next party has arrived. Not a big deal, they let you know there is a time limit, but maybe they should keep the service flowing so that doesn't happen. The interior decorator here did a great job with the time warp back to the mid 20th century. Cool vibe. Food was ok. Perhaps using old recipes from the time period is not so good for a tourist? I wasn't really impressed with the food, but I don't have a cultural link to Milanese food to begin with, so I don't think I was fully able to appreciate it. If my grandmother made this when i was a kid, perhaps it would have been better, but the meal was lost on me. There are plenty of spots to grab a good meal, I'd only recommend this place if you have a fond memory of the menu items or you really want to time travel and post to social media.
