Farini In Milano

27/04/2025: It's always a treat to come to this restaurant, the owners are very kind and the staff very helpful, good quality of food and price, thank you

08/04/2025: Friday dinner with relatives from out of town. At the last minute two people couldn't come, so there were 12 of us. We reported it as soon as we arrived and the response of those who accompanied us to the table was not very "welcoming". She was certainly right to not be happy, but there was just no way to warn her in time; furthermore the place wasn't completely full for the whole evening, so I don't think a table made a difference, although I repeat that it is always correct to warn. The place is clean and nice and the service is good, even if we waited almost an hour between the starter and the first courses. Luckily we asked to bring the pisses (as they call them) first. They were brought to us as an appetizer - . The flavor is very good, but in my opinion the pasta was too dry. We ordered several dishes: rather meager cold cuts platters with lots of side salad - first courses (paccheri with porcini mushrooms EXCELLENT - spaghetti with clams DISCRETE) second courses (beef fillets DISCRETE with cooking not exactly as requested - mixed fried food GOOD) desserts (unfortunately we didn't like the baked zeppola at all: the pasta was too dry and tasteless and even the cream had no flavour). In summary, we will probably try to return, but for the piss.
