Dal Milanese

The service was great. We met our daughter for dinner here. We had a reservation and it was not busy yet when we arrived (around 7pm), but got really busy quickly. We wanted to try a few different dishes. We ordered Osso Bucco with Risotto Milanese, Beef Cheeks with Polenta, Grilled Octopus and some pasta. Pasta was good, osso bucco was OK, but not great. It lacked that oomph. We make osso bucco with parsley gremolatta and this one was missing that extra something. Beef cheeks was really good. Octopus was really dry, but not yet chewy, so I think it was a little better than ok. For dessert we had a zabbaione with amaretto (but there was almost no amaretto) and colomba with cream and it was good. We will be back to try other dishes. Service was really good and quick. I would invite people over there again.

My phone was charging when the food came, but 10/10 definitely recommend. They have great variety of options of food and drinks:)

I found Dal Milanese on Open Table and then verified the reviews on Google. I was looking for a quality and sit-down place for a meal in Milan that was open after 11 PM. I had eaten at a different restaurant an hour earlier, and since portions are wonderfully and appropriately small in Italy, my strategy was try as many different foods as possible at as many restaurants. I also wanted to find a place that specialized in Milanese risotto since I hadn't tried it yet, and I love risotto. The location is far away from most tourist attractions, which you may like or not. Some prefer to be seated outside, in the middle of things to people watch. This is not a place to people watch. It's located in a quiet neighborhood. The mosquitos and other biting insects are pretty common right now in Italy also, there has been so much rain. So be ready for them for your Italian Summer, even inside the restaurants! I love the way the place is decorated, with photos, great lighting, wine, it's just a nice looking place when you walk in. Dal Milanese has a nice wine list, but then all the restaurants seem to have this in Italy, no matter where you eat. The service was painfully slow, but there was only one person serving, so I let it slide. They at least offered bread and olive oil during the wait. Dal Milanese serves traditional risotto, and I was so glad to finally try it. The rice was prepared perfectly, and was the perfect texture. If you love saffron, you'll love their risotto. This place is great for a late night meal with drinks.

The best experience and food I’ve had in Milan so far. What made it the best was really the staff, so kind, so professional and best recommendations on food and wine. I really felt at home while dining solo at the restaurant. I highly recommend if you are visiting Milan!

Walked past this restaurant and looked so inviting, didn’t disappoint. Great atmosphere and music. Service was great made us feel very welcome. The food was delicious, and even better cocktails! If you don’t have developed tastebuds then maybe go somewhere else…

The waiter was exceptional, even though we are Americans with little Italian language skills. He went out of his way to make us feel special and welcome. The food was great, especially the beef cheek and lasagne. There was a great vibe - very lively.

tried this spot the first day I was in Milan got in super late and was craving pasta, of course. It was just around the corner from where I was staying and had a great vibe to it. I was served promptly the pasta was fantastic. The table wine was good, overall a great experience. Pricing is fair. Will go again.

After traveling, we were starving and looked for a place to eat, which the hotel suggested we visit. The atmosphere and location are very captivating. The food was delicious and sufficient. Congratulations to the chef. The staff was kind and helpful, although we arrived shortly before the siesta. Overall we were delighted, we will definitely be back here again. So would recommend the place to everyone! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
