Il Calandrino In Rubano

I recommend the experience: high-level service, tasty and creatively executed dishes, a refined environment. Ideal for informal and also business driven lunches

Review for Il Calandrino Café The Calandrino Café is a true paradise for baking lovers. Their bread is exceptional: crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, with an authentic taste that immediately makes you feel at home. The pastry shop is also spectacular, with artisanal desserts that seem to have come out of a work of art - from buttery croissants to cakes with attention to the smallest details. And as if that wasn't enough, I'm so happy to have finally found a place that serves matcha! I had been looking for it for a long time, and here it is simply perfect: balanced, creamy and with a refined flavor that enhances the quality of the raw materials. The welcoming atmosphere and courteous staff complete the experience. If you love good food and are looking for a place that knows how to pamper you, Il Calandrino is a must!

Great bistro! Kindness, courtesy and sublime pastries

Delicious white and black fettuccini, with dry ink, fish and small squid, with pistachio cream. Gazpacho, tomato ice cream, Yuzu, delicious too. Machine ground beef tartare (and not with a knife, like a batteta). Well seasoned, with a very fresh salad, but hearty. Good, but not unforgettable. Dessert, less interesting Very short wine list, but it is possible to order wines from the starred restaurant, which we did. Barolo 2016 Brovia Brea vigna ca’ mia: a classic, all in balance. The prices are rather reasonable. Superb Capovilla grappa 2001 as a digestive. Good value for money.

The room is very nice, comfortable and clean. Excellent choice of croissants and desserts. Friendly and very professional staff. The only flaw is the price/quality ratio. Increase in the price of coffee from €1.50 which is already high compared to the average at €1.80. At the same time, brioches also increased by over 0.50 cents. Restaurant at its height since we are talking about a THREE MICHELIN STARS.

Locale attiguo al più noto Le Calandre dal quale eredita l’ambiente molto curato ma informale , la cucina ricercata sia per una pausa veloce che per una colazione ed il servizio distintivo e professionale Ottime tutte le proposte provate , anche in passato , con prezzi medio alti ma adeguati all’esperienza che si vive in questa tipologia di locali

Local adjacent to the better known Le Calandre from which it inherits the very refined but informal environment, the refined cuisine both for a quick break and for a breakfast and the distinctive and professional service All the proposals tried were excellent, even in the past, with medium-high prices but adequate for the experience experienced in this type of venue

Immediately welcoming and refined atmosphere. I started with a house aperitif (I don't remember the name but to be clear it's an Americano with lime, light and thirst-quenching) which I found superlative. I went for work so I couldn't order à la carte but the menu selected for the evening was a good combination of dishes and flavours. Wine paired perfectly. I have to go back!!!

A big hug, a smile that transmits joy and the desire to "welcome". These were the things that struck me about him. We stopped by with Cino Tortorella at an "unlikely" time to ask for a meal. When Massimiliano found out we were in the room he only took a moment to seat us and offered us an "unconventional" appetizer while waiting to then bring us what he defined as "something quick"... A truly unique experience! A big hug, a smile that conveys joy and the desire to "welcome". These were the things that struck me about him. We passed with Cino Tortorella at an "unacceptable" time to ask for a meal. When Massimiliano learned that we were in the dining room, he only took a moment to accommodate us and he offered us an "unconventional" appetizer, waiting to bring us what he called "something quick" ... Really experience only! Krepkoye ob"yatiye, ulybka, peredayushchaya radost' i zhelaniye «poprivetstvovat'». Vot chto menya porazilo v nem.

Kogda Massimiliano uznal, chto my nakhodimsya v stolovoy, on udelil nam nemnogo vremeni i predlozhil nam «netraditsionnuyu» zakusku, ozhidaya, chtoby prinesti nam to, chto on nazval «chem-to bystrym» ... Poistine unikal'nyy opyt! Ōkina hōyō, yorokobi to `kangei' and no yokkyū or tsutaeru egao. Korera wa kare ni tsuite watashi o odoroka seta monodeshita.

A story told, a book, the Freude and the Wunsch after „Willkommen“ vermittelt. Das waren die Dinge, die mir an ihm auffielen. We are talking about a "inakzeptablen" Zeitpunkt with Cino Tortorella vorbei, um nach einer Mahlzeit zu fragen. Als Massimiliano erfuhr, dass wir uns im Speisesaal befanden, nahm er sich only a Moment Zeit, um uns entgegenzukommen und bot uns eine "unkonventionelle" Vorspeise an, die darauf wartete, uns etwas zu broughten, was er "etwas Schnelles" nannte .. . Ein wirklich einzigartiges Erlebnis! A big cup, a sourire here expresses the joy and the envie of "accueillir". There are some choices here that I have a frappé with him. We all passed with Cino Tortorella at an "unacceptable" time for a repas. Lorsque Massimiliano learned that we had dinner in the room, first of all there was an instant for us to take care of ourselves and we offered us an "unconventional" apéritif, waiting for us to bring what was called "that which was chosen quickly" ... A truly unique experience!

Nice bistrot type, relaxed setting, attached to the bakery shop.. and building where there is the 3 star “mother ship”. Small limited menu choices ..creative recipes. Unfortunately realization was a bit deceiving .. apero bites where banal and parmigiano (grana not reggiano ..) bites had a strange sambuca flavor .. antipasti’s were ok but nothing exceptional .. their poree Milanese creative but boring as rather tasteless .. wine choices very limited ie poor .. Expensive for what they offer
