El Barbapedana In Milano

Typical Milanese cuisine, delicious saffron risotto, very special berry risotto, excellent Milanese cutlet. Very friendly staff, highly recommended!

The Miñanes rice, the cottoleta, the pasta and the tiramisu were all excellent

Truly, by far the best Milanese and Tiramisu I've ever eaten in Milan.

This is the type of restaurants that I love in Italy! It’s a hole in the wall, with amazing food, great service, and fair prices for the meal that you are getting. The risotto is very creamy and out of this world. The view was huge and tender. Service was very nice and welcoming. I also enjoyed the atmosphere. Super cozy and good temperature inside. They also have a great wine selection with fair prices. I really enjoyed this restaurant and I would like to come back. I suggest making a reservation ahead of time.

Small but very nice. It's worth going there because of its proximity to the DRL Coin parking lot. The Milanese cuisine is excellent.

The restaurant's entrance is unobtrusive, but once inside, you notice the attention to detail and the courteous wait staff. In June, the restaurant had two evening sittings, one at 8:00 PM and one at 10:00 PM. We chose the 8:00 PM sitting. We had a starter of fried gnocco with prosciutto, three risottos (Milanese, sausage and wine, zucchini flowers and asparagus), and finally a Milanese cutlet. Everything was delicious, made with quality ingredients. The risottos were especially appreciated, each with strong flavors; you could taste the ingredients, and they were cooked perfectly. The cutlet was too thin for my taste. I'll gladly return.

This restaurant was such a pleasant surprise! It was our first restaurant in Milan, and it ended up being one of the best dining experiences of our trip. The food is delicious, the service is fast and friendly, and there are great options featuring local cuisine. I would happily come back again and again. My biggest recommendation: order the gnocco fritto platter with both topping options!

Intimate and welcoming atmosphere. The risotto is truly delicious, as are the other Milanese dishes. The place isn't large; reservations are essential.

I don't particularly like it when food becomes too commercialized for tourists when traveling in a city. That is because it turns the food into something "tailored for tourists" rather than focusing on its true essence. This restaurant, which I visit frequently thanks to my Italian husband, is a place where I am always so busy eating that I forget to write a review. The risotto served with the ossobuco and the steak here are truly works of art. To be honest, even though I am not a big fan of Italian food, this is a place where I feel good only after eating until I feel like my stomach is going to burst~♡ The Italian owner's humor and gentleness lift your spirits even before you start eating. Along with the bread served before the meal, they also provide taralli, a traditional Italian pastry. Usually, tourists who don't know any better tend to act like nuisances, demanding balsamic vinegar and olive oil to dip their bread in before even ordering, but real local restaurants don't do that kind of showy setup. (It is on a completely different level from ordinary restaurants that serve balsamic vinegar just to project a tourist image.) I think this is the pinnacle of Milanese cuisine and the place where the best flavors come out. Usually, there are restaurants here and there that discriminate against foreigners, but everyone here was genuinely kind, so I felt great throughout my trip. I was happy to end the day perfectly with such delightful food. Owner, I hope your business prospers for a long time to come!

Super welcoming atmosphere, tasty, quick-prepared typical Milanese dishes. I highly recommend it for a taste of Milanese cuisine, both in terms of food and atmosphere. Compliments to the chef 🥊🥊
