Don Lisander In Milano

Great menu with a flavor focus.

Came for a quiet evening of good food, wine and a date with my book. I was not disappointed

The food at Don Lisander is truly delicious! The osso buco was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the pasta was perfectly cooked. The service was also very good, attentive and professional. However, I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because of the ambiance. While the restaurant has a nice setting, the decor could use some improvement to match the quality of the food and service. A more refined atmosphere would elevate the dining experience even further. Overall, a great spot for classic Milanese cuisine!

Elegant environment, very attentive and kind staff. Truly recommended for both tourists and the Milanese DOCG. Menu with well-calibrated dishes (traditional or fish), wine list with the right mark-up

At that time I wouldn't know where to start. let's go in chronological order I would say They recommend two glasses of Sardinian Vermentino as an aperitif. And from here we start to be happy. A Vermentino so aromatic in scent, but at the same time dry, mineral and so persistent... is rarely found. Mondeghili: the rumors heard were true. Tasty, tender. Magnificent With the selection of cheeses we go further up into the paradise of pleasure. Wonderful, from the lightest to the blue one. Explosive. The jams, alone or in combination, are also notable. Bean soup with bacon and croutons. A wise poem. Great. Last but not least His Majesty the Braised Veal Cheek, and the Emperor Ossobuco with his risotto. Again, I don't know where to start. My aunt's one can't be beaten, but this osso buco... The reduction... The risotto... Sorry aunt, but I've never eaten like this And on the cheek... No comment Soft, tasty meat. Tender that broke with the breadstick. Fat, not too much, but it melts in your mouth. And it's very good. His sauce. Reduction, Another explosion, atomic this time, of flavours. My taste buds thank you from the bottom of my heart. All accompanied by an inferno Nebbiolo, Lombard though. I love Nebbiolo. Perfect . Ideal. Followed by a high-quality Chianti. Sublime. I mean really. Congratulations. Well-kept interiors that convey a sense of calm and relaxation. The musical selection goes in this direction. So eating like crazy doesn't become a burden but a wonderful journey Impeccable dining room staff Professional, prepared, kind and non-intrusive, as well as pleasant and friendly A round of applause for the kitchen. I would say worldwide Really compliments Recommended 100/100

Excellent Milanese cuisine and beyond. From appetizers to desserts, everything is delicious. Nice and welcoming place. Trained and present staff

Conferma dell'eccellenza! Ancora un'esperienza di gusto ai massimi livelli, sempre nel rispetto rigoroso della migliore tradizione.

Bel ristorante a due passi dal duomo nel quadrilatero della moda. Locale molto grande, curato e accogliente. Servizio ottimo. Risotto alla milanese con ossobuco molto buono. Ampia scelta di vino al calice. A pranzo pienissimo. Vorrei tornare la sera o d'estate all'aperto.

Don Lisander é sempre una certezza. ottimo servizio!

Da alcune settimane il ristorante propone, anche in vendita da asporto, la nuova Torta Provvidenza. In effetti si tratta di una rivisitazione in chiave moderna della antica "carsenza", un dolce povero dei secoli scorsi, fatto con il pane avanzato ammollato nel latte cui erano aggiunti zucchero e frutta secca (a volte anche fresca) avanzata dal pranzo di Natale, il tutto cotto al forno. Si mangiava tipicamente a Capodanno e ne erano ghiotti Alessandro Manzoni e la prima moglie Enrichetta. Ora rivive e viene venduta in una scatola con l'effige di Manzoni, che i milanesi chiamavano affettuosamente Don Lisander. Una nuova torta di Milano, oltre al panettone? Noi ne abbiamo comperata una sabato scorso e mangiata assieme ad amici, accompagnandola con una pallina di gelato alla crema: ottima! Ne abbiamo già prenotata un'altra per Natale.
