Contraste In Milano

A very positive experience beyond expectations: creative and satisfying “Reflection” program, young and knowledgeable staff, calm and pleasant atmosphere.

A surprise dinner. Artworks containing an explosion of flavors! Too bad the plastic tablecloth!

Beautiful experience: sublime food, sometimes brilliant. Impeccable service. Thank you!

This is an amazing restaurant and it was one of the best meals I have ever had. The space is lovely but a bit heavy. The whole restaurant is round so all the diners can see each other. It is a bit not intimate but at the end of the meal it was a pleasant surprise. The restaurant has 2 sections. We chose traditional food memories with a new surprise in each dish. The food was amazing and surprising. Dishes like carbonara, cachè a pepe, lasagna. They receive a new and brilliant interpretation. And at the end there was a rose cake that was worth waiting for all the dishes. The meal was accompanied by a great wine that they chose for us. In short, it was great. PS We said not intimate so at the end of the meal the guy sitting across from us came up to us and asked where we were from and if it was our first time in Milan we said yes and he said he saw that we really enjoyed the meal. He added that you chose an excellent restaurant. I am a local and have eaten in almost all Michelin restaurants in the city. You chose the best.

My friend and I tried the “reflections” menu. What can I say, a magical experience. A true journey outside of your comfort zone. Thanks to Cristina for her attention, professionalism and ability to put you at ease.

What can one say?  Our group was led on a culinary journey we won’t soon forget by true masters of service and cuisine.   Do yourself a favour and leave your expectations outside.  Contraste is worthy of your full trust. Buy the ticket and take the ride!

This restaurant boasts creative and entertaining ideas transformed into dishes. The impressive theme featured various hand-expressed emotions. Not only did the food tantalize my taste buds, but I also enjoyed speculating about how each dish was crafted. To create each form, the chef utilized diverse ingredients and colors. Overall, the incorporation of cheese added a rich and creamy flavor, while the textures alternated between firm and soft in each course. The noodle-based dish mimicked the chewiness of clams, and the broths were savory. Encasing mussels in a soft cheese and finishing with pepper foam made the dish enjoyable even for those unaccustomed to spicy food. Each dish's plating complemented the plate's design, and the dessert's presentation evoked excitement, much like opening a secret box. The final bread and ice cream were a fitting conclusion, particularly the exceptional ice cream. The staff were courteous and enthusiastic when explaining the appetizers. However, I questioned the professionalism when the first staff member placed the amuse-bouche, only for other staff to reposition it. Unlike other Michelin-starred restaurants, this establishment did not offer adjusted menus or portions for children, which was disappointing. The restaurant's interior exuded a modern, simple ambiance, and entering through the gate and passing a small garden felt like entering a home. We were told children were allowed, so we went with our child — but there were no adjustments to the menu or course structure to accommodate kids at all. Our child only received two courses and refused to eat anything after that, so we declined the rest of the service for them. Despite this, we were charged full price. If we had known in advance that it wouldn’t be suitable for children, we would have chosen a different Michelin-starred restaurant. It’s really disappointing, and the more I think about it, the more I regret spending the money.

Very nice place, dinner with sea view, Giuseppe the waiter really top, the owner very kind, but above all very good food of quality and cooked very well. Highly recommended.

The tasting menu was an incredible gastronomic journey, with innovative dishes and sublime flavours. The service was impeccable, with friendly and professional staff. A unique and unforgettable experience 🥰 The sommelier was simply fantastic. Her enthusiasm and passion for wine were contagious and greatly enriched our gastronomic experience. A true professional! Thank you

Conosciamo contraste da anni e sebbene un annetto fa riflessioni ci abbia lasciato molto perplesso oggi riflesso è un menu straordinario . Non c’è stato un singolo piatto sbagliato o sciatto ma sono tutte esplosioni di gusto pazzesche. La maestria alla brace è totale e insisterei su questa matrice perché porta questa esperienza a altissimo livello . I ragazzi sempre bravi in sala . Forse concordo con alcune critiche sulle luci e utilizzerei luci che non colpiscano direttamente gli occhi ma più focus sul tavolo , sarebbero meno fastidiose. Per il resto masterclass vera!
