Al Manicomio In Varese

Guys, it's amazing and so good. P.S. The platter was chock-full of cured meats and cheese with fried gnocco!

A family-run place, run by kind and helpful people. You can enjoy excellent gins accompanied by generous and carefully prepared aperitifs. I once again extend my compliments and recommend everyone to spend an evening at this bar!

The food is delicious. Monica, the owner, is always attentive to her customers' needs. Highly recommended for a quick lunch.

Excellent and very welcoming, PETS ALLOWED

We were greeted with great kindness and friendliness by the owner in a very clean location. The coffee is delicious and the croissants taste great. Excellent value for money.

Reading the previous reviews, I'm starting to think I've stumbled upon this bistro on the wrong day. I happened to pass by this place at lunchtime and, drawn by the reasonably priced set menu, decided to stop in. The place is modern, well-kept, and clean, and the staff is welcoming and friendly. I ordered pasta alla boscaiola and chicken breast Milanese with baked potatoes, accompanied by water and wine. The pasta, decidedly overcooked, was floating in an excessive amount of sauce, which was pleasantly flavorful but gave the dish a military-style mess-like appearance. The chicken breast Milanese was actually one of those industrial-style "things," frozen, cookie-cutter, and undoubtedly cooked in overused oil. The baked potatoes also left much to be desired. After my first course was served, I had to chase the waitress for the wine I'd ordered and the salt I'd requested. When the second course arrived, I'm still waiting for it. Unfortunately, I was not at all satisfied.
