el cicinin In Milano

The guys that run this place get an A+++ for service. They also had a great selection of wine and liquors and a really cool vibe with outside seating.

Had cocktails here and absolutely loved it. Fantastic drinks, perfectly mixed, and genuinely warm, attentive service. What really makes the place special is the crowd lots of locals, relaxed vibe, and a very authentic, friendly Milanese welcome. Feels real, not touristy. Would come back anytime.

I drank several aperitifs, bottles, and glasses. I'd say it's an excellent place, a little pricey but about average for Milan.

A fantastic bar with a typical Italian atmosphere. Run by its owner, Marco, who is a delight and was incredibly attentive throughout our visit. The cocktails, which he makes himself, are elaborate and delicious. The food is exquisite. I highly recommend this place. I'll be back!

Delicious food and really good service! 🥂

The first thing to say about Cicinin is that the food is good and the appetizers are healthy, meaning they're freshly prepared in the restaurant's kitchen and include pizza made by the chef, stuffed piadinas, and other freshly prepared appetizers. Plus, there's something new every day, and the appetizer menu changes too. I admit I can't stand the rice salads made with condiriso that you're usually served in Milanese bars for an aperitif. I've always avoided them like the plague. Cicinin's cuisine is also very refined; I don't think I've ever seen anyone complain about the risotto with ossobuco, which was truly perfect (as a Milanese would say). The owners are very kind, and the atmosphere is very friendly, almost affectionate, towards the regulars. Also recommended for its beautiful location on Via Corsico, opposite the side entrance of the church of Santa Maria sul Naviglio. In the evening, in the darkness, you feel like you're back in 19th-century Milan.
