Dongiò In Milano

Calabrian notes in the menu, good choice and excellent dishes

Pretty good food. The best was veal cheeks and pasta with sausage & red sauce (we asked for not spicy).

A humble and casual place with exceptional food. The prices are low and the quality far exceeded my expectations. Service was incredible as well. What a great place to return to and enjoy with people you care about. Leaving with a full belly, unscathed wallet and a smile that lasts too long.

We went to Dongio for dinner. We were there as one of the first guest for the evening. Staff was very friendly and knowledgable. The waiter suggested a very good wine. For the meal we chose different appetisers to share and then a primi and secondi per person. Dessert was then to share again. Overall a very good dinner and a great experience. Thank you

chairs could be a little more comfortable but besides that it is amazing!

We celebrated our anniversary at this Michelin-recommended restaurant with my partner, and surprisingly, we stumbled upon some incredibly kind flavors. I never thought Italy could offer food that wasn't overly salty, and it was also incredibly affordable at just 20 euros per person. We ordered a chicken dish flavored with eggplant—it was fantastic. We also casually picked a tomato maccheroni and garlic shrimp spaghetti. The eggplant was truly delicious, and the tomato ragu and garlic oil felt exactly like something my grandma from Shanxi, China, would make! It reminded me of the scene in Ratatouille where the food critic is transported back to his mother's cooking, dropping his pen in awe. I imagine the Michelin critic who recommended this place must have arrived with a very jaded palate, a mouth that had been overly pampered too many times and hadn't truly finished a meal in ages. Yet, for some reason, here they devoured everything, scraping their plate clean, just like we did. If I had to make one complaint, it's that the complimentary bread crust wasn't as crispy as the one at Canaletto Bistrot by the canal. However, the food there eventually becomes overwhelmingly salty and tiring. Dongio's food, on the other hand, felt like it was defining what food should be: incredibly grounded, with very restrained seasonings. It made me feel genuinely happy.

Excellent pasta. Best we had on our trip.

Great food at reasonable price. Need to book a table in advance! Would love to return.

Locale semplice, accogliente, menù ben strutturato e tipico calabrese. Ottima esperienza per una serata tra amici. Servizio rapido ed eccellente soprattutto da parte di Alessia, gentile, simpatica, cortese ed empatica

Bel locale a pochi passi dalle Terme di Milano (consigliatissime). Cucina calabrese ma non solo. Abbiamo assaggiato due primi e una caponata da leccarsi i bassi. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Personale molto gentile.
