"Located on the top floor, with lift, of the Luigi Rovati Foundation, in a magnificent historic building renovated according to certified sustainability criteria and which also houses a very refined Art Museum, chef patron Andrea Aprea crowns the dream of a restaurant of his own: a space of great scenic impact, totally projected towards the open kitchen, with the walls of the central room covered in bucchero (the characteristic black ceramic used by the Etruscans to make their vases). It is here that you can admire the chef and his brigade intent on preparing the dishes of the three tasting menus: Contemporaneità, a 4-course creative itinerary dedicated to the relationship between memory and innovation (you will often find pigeon here); Partenope, a 6-course journey into the suggestions of Campania (how not to mention the tortello alla genovese di manzo with escarole, provolone del Monaco and black olives); Signature, a profound and prolonged experience into the philosophy and personal history of the chef in 8 courses identified by the vintage (it was 2016, for example, the first time he cooked the dessert strawberry with maraschino, mascarpone and nepetella). In the secret green courtyard of the building in Corso Venezia 52 is the Caffè Bistrot, where classic Italian flavours can be sampled from breakfast to dinner." - Michelin Inspector

MICHELIN Guide Italy 2024 is unveiled today!

"In his Milan namesake, the Campanian-born, Milanese-by-adoption chef—already two-starred at Vun—pours full talent and experience into uncompromising modern dishes with clear-cut, decisive tastes. The buffalo ricotta tortello with Neapolitan ragout sauce, for example, is an explosion of flavors." - MICHELIN Guide

This is obviously a five star restaurant but a two star Michelin restaurant gets a curve. The dining room is outstanding. Large tables with an open kitchen is great. The service is excellent. The Neapolitan tasting menu was enjoyable. A couple of dishes were underwhelming but the rest were exceptional. I would definitely go back.

I very rarely hand out an all 5-star review, but Andrea Aprea certainly deserves it. From the moment I entered, I was greeted warmly by name, setting the tone for an exceptional evening. Jessica, who managed our table, was attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the experience for us. I had preselected the ‘Signature’ set menu for our group of five, and each dish took us on a mesmerizing journey—both artistic and flavorful—traversing from sea to land and air. The menu’s genius lies in its balance of acidity, sweetness, bitterness, and savoriness, masterfully curated to offer dynamic contrasts and harmonious flavors. Every course spoke to Chef Aprea’s impeccable craftsmanship and the deep understanding of Italian heritage, with thoughtful modern touches that earned the restaurant its two Michelin stars. This dining experience felt like an indulgence in both elegance and artistry. I cannot recommend it highly enough, and I look forward to visiting it again on future trips to Milan!

This place is not only cozy but also with a high quality of wine and tasty food. Starting with the service of the sommelier which was impressive and unique once she tried to ally our personal preference with the food they offered. The bread is by far, the best I’ve ever eaten. The temperature, taste, and the combination with the olive oil from Sicily make this experience unforgettable. Every detail is carefully thought out to give us (customers) a great experience!

The ambiance and service are impeccable, total Michelin standards. As for the food: 1. The ingredients are all quite ordinary, and they haven't been transformed into something interesting or more delicious through cooking techniques; 2. The flavors are completely unbalanced, some dishes being overly salty and others being too bland; 3. The whole experience rely on unimaginative gimmicks like dry ice, cracking, and pouring sauce. It's 2024 now! Keep up with others or focus on perfecting the food itself. Considering the price, it's really not worth it.

The food was outstanding and I would definitely recommend people to try. Everyone is friendly; however, the waiter who served us failed to politely interrupt our conversation before introducing the meal. Instead, he started speaking, regardless of whether we were paying attention. After the introduction, he left suddenly without saying 'please enjoy,' which made the whole experience ended very abruptly. Additionally, I was a little surprised that some guests lacked the etiquette of not wearing perfume at a fine dining restaurant. The guests seated behind us somewhat ruined our experience. Much of the flavor of food comes from smell, so when we can't perceive the aroma of the food and wine, we lose a significant part of the ability to experience the flavor. The food is savory and satisfying but I hope the restaurant can request guests not to wear any perfume when coming in.

Simply perfect meal. Flavours were complex and developed and we loved the ambiance and perfect match between the dining room and seeing the staff work together. The service was top notch. I think they will be 3 Michelin stars soon! Thank you again Andrea and team!

Very good dinner from the first amuse bouche. Highlights included an excellent expression of the classic basil-tomato-burrata trifecta (plus egg), the squid in Neapolitan ink sauce and a complex lemon “palate cleanser” with a hint of mint reminding me of fernet branca menta. This was the Neapolitan menu. The service and environment was at the level expected of a fine dining restaurant. Well done
