"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

We got a reservation through the online system an hour before on a weekday evening. Parking was not bad. The lamb and liver skewers blew us away. The porcini pasta was fresh. Honey herb lamb was good. Tiramisu was amazing. Quiet and charming with the charcoal grill in the back. Excellent service - they were very gracious and patient with putting up with us clueless Americans who wanted to share plates and requested garlic to be omitted in the veggie dishes. Thank you!!!

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

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).

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.

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.

A magical place in Milano! Little off city center, but it’s worth it. Amazing food, everything was wonderful, especially the eggplant starter dish. The staff were kind and the rest of the food was also great and not that expensive at all. Overall great VFM

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."
