I visit this seafood restaurant every time I come to Milan, and it has never disappointed me. The ingredients are very fresh. The dishes look simple, but they are made with great care and precision. Thanks to this, the natural flavor of the seafood really stands out, and everything tastes excellent. The atmosphere is elegant but very comfortable. There is good attention to details such as the tableware, colors, music, and service. The food is not overly complicated like some Michelin-style dishes. Instead, it focuses on clean and honest flavors, which I really appreciate. The wine list is very good, and the sommelier always gives helpful recommendations that match the food well. It is not cheap, but for this level of freshness and quality, it is definitely worth the price. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Quite a fine dining with very high price point. All but espresso served to perfection. Chef's welcome dish amazing. Jack Dort fish with tomato, octopus, sea food plate. Great wines but we used smaller menu as book was too heavy to find anything. No alternatives for non fish or non sea food eaters. Still smdishes are a little bit overpriced. Service is quick and fast but not caring. Zero recommendation from staff. We have had 2.5 hours to eat, so they sometimes rush. Often they forgot to pour the wine. Surprise was espresso. Coffee was great but served already without foam so likely was prepared 2 minute prior serving.

The place has clearly had a lot of work put into its aesthetic — the interior design and graphic elements are beautifully done, and the service is truly excellent. However, when it comes to the food itself, it doesn’t quite live up to the rest of the experience. While the dishes are decent, they’re not exceptional, especially considering the price point. For example, a dish that costs €68 here could easily be found elsewhere for €30 with similar or even better quality. Overall, it’s a stylish posh spot with great service, but the food doesn’t justify the premium pricing.

Beautiful seafood restaurant with absolutely excellent service, huge wine selection and beautiful setup. The food was amazing and totally worth it! It’s an elegant restaurant so it’s definitely recommended to dress up and make a reservation ahead of time

The food is absolutely delicious: the best octopus with potatoes of my life. Service was also fantastic: felt super well taken care of. Prices a bit high, even for Milan. Almost 300 dollars and we didn’t even drink. Restaurant for special occasion for sure. The special paccheri were good, but undercooked. If I am paying 80 euros for pasta, it has to be the perfect texture!!

Truly beautiful experience. Starting from the decor, atmosphere, friendly staff, ending at amazing seafood dishes, prepared with every possible attention to details. Every seafood fan must visit this place, as one can try things, that he couldn't imagine even trying. If I would have a chance, I would definitely visit it again.

Great choices of seafood and I’m a huge fan of raw seafood. I wouldn’t recommend the pasta here honestly. The wine list is incredible. Service could be better. Some of the staff is quite rude especially the hostess desk . May be worse with tourists but nicer with their every day customers but doesn’t matter for first impression. I would go back for the food honestly but wish they treated everyone the same cause they don’t know who’s the person walking in the door and that attitude isn’t very helpful

Great seafood!! First of all, there's multiple restaurants under this name. We went to another one at first and they directed us to the right one. We got the seafood tower for two and two dishes. Everything was super fresh and delicious! They do give you lots of sauces (something quite rare in Italy) lol. Also comes with free bread and they'll give you oil and vinegar if you ask. Highly recommend the seafood tower and the toro!! Even the cauliflower under it was delicious. Got the passion fruit mousse for dessert & loved it as well! I'll definitely be recommending this place to others!

This place needs to re-invent itself. We were told that "don't leave Milan without going here". The food is sophisticated but WAY overpriced, crowded and not enough space between tables. And the food didn't taste good enough to justify the crazy prices. They made a big deal of showing us the fish they were going to cook us. I still left hungry. What about a simply grilled piece of fish?

5 star experience. Pricey but worth it . Great for a special occasion. Excellent staff & food plus a terrific wine list. More of a date place or for special occasions.

I am biased because I am a big fan of all Langosteria's restaurants but they are just all simply fantastic: the food is amazing and the service is even better. This is the flagship, original Langosteria and is a really big restaurant (the manager told us it seats more than 150 people) but because of the set up it feels really cosy and the staff makes you feel like you are in a family dining room. A family dining room with really good food that is! I wondered if they put crack on the dishes because all of them are simply fantastic. From the seafood tower which contains the freshest and best variation of shrimp, clams, bulots and more over the absolutely scrumptious mains to the great desserts. I am not really a dessert person but their tiramisu is airy, tasty and very pretty. I am a believer, highly recommended and will certainly go back!

My favorite Milan restaurant for atmosphere, service, presentation and incredible food.

This was the worst dinner that we have had in our 2+ week Italian vacation to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary from Rome to Florence to Venice and now Milan. This place was highly recommended by every fine dining website yet It was just SO mediocre in every way from the service to the tasting menu (that we only eat half of) and decided to leave because we were so disappointed. DO NOT GO HERE!!! Very overrated!!!

The service by Milton and Shoid was just outstanding in every way!!! Milton, our server, brought the cuisine quickly and recommended a Norwegian lobster and pasta dish in a tomato cream sauce that was absolutely delectable!!! He was very genuinely friendly and courteous! Milton answered all the questions I had about the menu. He brought us a delicious complimentary appetizer with clams and fresh tomato sauce. My husband ordered large fresh prawns from Sicily. I practiced my not so good Italian with the server, Milton. The beauty of the Italians is that they welcome you speaking their language even though Italian is a very new language for me. The bread was complimentary and also yummy! Milton made sure that our anniversary dinner was just amazing!!! He served us complimentary chocolates in a box and Italian gelato that were in the skins of the original fruit-wow for taste sensation! The ambiance is both romantic and ready for Christmas. The lighting is dark but one can see their meals. Kudos to the chef!!! Enrico, one of the managers, was very friendly as well!!! He was very welcoming. The head manager was thrilled that we throughly enjoyed everything about this intimate restaurant in Milan. The hostesses were so very friendly as well!!! Make sure to make a reservation months in advance. You should take a taxi to this Michelin restaurant. All in all this is the best seafood ristorante that we have ever dined at for many reasons!!! Langosteria Ristorante is my new favorite place to dine!!! Thank you so very much, Milton!!! Grazie!!! Please ask for Milton as your server because he was amazing at his profession as a waiter!!!

The staff were rude and seemed annoyed when we asked questions regarding the menu. There was a $10 cover charge that we were not made aware of when we made the reservations to begin with. The charge would have been fine had we been made aware of this but there was zero transparency here. The only thing that was good was the spicy margarita, the tomato based soup with clams that was supposed to be "compliments of the chef", and the doorman. The atmosphere was upscale however the food and service did not reflect this.

Food was excellent- service was terrible, tne waiter has too many tables and is unable to refill a wine glass, respond to a request, finally I asked for my bill to tne waiter several times and noting, I asked the manager nothing, the only way I could get a bill was to attempt to leave. While the food is worth the effort for the reservation the service is not. Having spent 5 weeks in Italy this was the worst service of any restaurant in any city I visited.

There are things to like about this place. The atmosphere is intimate and clubby, almost New York-ish. The fresh fish display that greets you when you enter is impressive. From there, it's all downhill. A seafood restaurant with one white wine available by the glass? Really? I had grilled Dover sole and my wife had prawns. Both were OK, nothing special. Neither came with any accompaniment of any kind, not even a garnish! We ordered a bottle of wine, which our server ignored throughout the meal. We served ourselves, as did other patrons having wine. The worst part was the service. Shouldn't your server guide you to the best dining experience the restaurant can offer? Our waitress was an order taker, and an unsmiling one who treated our lack of Italian as an enormous burden. At one point, my wife leaned over and said, "I don't think she likes Americans very much." Milan is a great restaurant city. There are many, many better choices than this.

One of the freshest seafood restaurant in Milan I've tasted so far, not even too expensive compared for what you get and the service is just at Michelin level.

DO NOT EAT HERE. I got the worst food poisoning imaginable. If I can spare one person the pain and hassle I went through, this review is worth it. I had to see a doctor and spent the first three days of my honeymoon sick and in a hotel room. I am still not recovered and am on antibiotics just to fight off the bacteria carried in their food.

Overprice.If you don't mind spending a fortune for your food, is the place to be. Good for business meeting. Good food, excellent sea food. Great wine. But definitely you can fin something cheaper with great quality as well, in Milan.

Small but upscale restaurant in the Design District of Milan. As the name suggests, it is a seafood place. It s narrow restaurant but extends pretty far since the restaurant kept expanding - a good sign? Wine cellar is visible through floor-celing glasses. Went and had dinner for two and we had about 4 different type of tartars, all of which were amazing. They start with lighter fish and we even had a white fish with fois gras on top. The servers are very knowledgeable and definitely recommend the courses to you - which I seriously appreciated. the portions are small but after 4 different tartars it was hard to get through all of the white sea bass we ordered as the main (salt-baked 'branzino' which is common in most milanese restaurants). The oysters were also fresh. Overall an amazing place for a date night, family dinner.

The food is beautiful but the service was horrible and ruined our night. They made us very upset by not allowing us to have our table when we were 15 minutes late. We sat at the very uncomfortable and awkward bar at the entrance instead and finished two courses well ahead of the time limit. I have not complained to a restaurant in over 5 years but I did so on this occasion and it took me two tries to get the service charge removed. How classy. They are ridiculous and lacking in emotional intelligence.

Small but very nice restaurant in Milano. Obviously, the preferred food is seafood and their sprcial is oyster as starter. The courses are not to big and it is therefore possible to have three courses without being completely full. Also the seafood pasta dishes are fresh and good.
