"This restaurant takes its name from the warrior statue dating back to the 6C BC which was discovered in Capestrano (Aquila province) in 1934. The statue, carved from a single block of local stone, is one of the most mysterious finds in history. No such mystery surrounds the dishes served in this restaurant, which focuses on cuisine from the Abruzzo, including top-quality hams and cheeses produced by small-scale producers, as well as mutton, lamb, beef, barbecued lamb kebabs and other culinary delights." - Michelin Inspector
On our first day in Italy we were looking for a nice restaurant and it did do this justice. We had some appetizers with the lamb tartare being impeccable. Also the mains with lamb and sausages were great
Highly recommended

Just spent an amazing evening in this really good restaurant. The food was impeccable and Mr. Raffaele was absolutely the perfect waiter. Fast, giving attention to every detail, always kind and composed. Thank you again Raffaele for the amazing experience.

Had dinner here to celebrate my anniversary and was delighted by this cute cozy place. Wonderful atmosphere, amazing service and food is delicious! Everything very fresh! The waitress (unfortunately I didn’t ask her name), a long black hair girl was super sweet and polite (service you rarely find in Milano).

Good food, the best option are the lamb sticks. All the food is delightful I think it’s what you expect from a Italian restaurant a little bit far away from the center of milano but I fully recommend it. The atmosphere it’s a whole experience really recommend it. Just to let you know if you eat a lot the portions are not very large.

I have travelled the world extensively over 40 years. I ate at all restaurants ranging from pop & mom’s to Michelin three stars. This is my honest review of the restaurant Il Capestrano in southern suburb of Milano next to Fondazione Prada. It serves delicious regional food from Abruzze region (east of Rome) with high focus on lamb, mouton. The grilled lamb meat and the mouton tartar were memorable. Everything was very good. Service was welcoming and professional.

I've been in Milan for two days, and I put a lot of effort into finding the right restaurant. Good food is crucial to me on this trip. This place was fantastic, from the service to the bread and entrees. As I ate, I couldn't help but think, "This is the best food I've ever had."

A pleasant business lunch in this restaurant. Very nice decor and polite and attentive service. Tried the ox cheek with polenta and the arrosticini which are one of the specialties. I also tasted the liver arrosticini which are super tasty if you like liver too 😋
