Isola Verde In Milano

I also gave five stars to the environment because cleanliness comes first. If you're looking for cool locations and that's it, it's not for you. If you are looking for real and genuine Eritrean cuisine, you will go without fail. Freshly prepared (obviously what can be done at the moment certainly not injera or meat stew which is the basis of zighinì). Quality and freshness of the ingredients, kindness? ... exquisite, like food. Remembering urination, to be done either before or after the meal, is not possible during (I would say that it is not that difficult to regulate in this regard except for incontinence problems). For hop lovers, in addition to the classic Asmara, there is the possibility of choosing between two other beers brewed in Eritrea. Betam yekenyeley! Betam t'iru neyre!

The best restaurant I have experienced in Milan thus far.

How nice that these places still exist, that it's not all glossy and fake built. Zero frills, with a lady who prepares everything on the spot in a poorly maintained place. You have to wait a while but it's a good sign, everything freshly done. Extraordinary flavours, bottled beer, African friends who stop by to say hello and you're immediately in Asmara.

Quaint, delicious and the quality of the food is good. I will definitely be back. Not the best quality photo but I assure you that the food was amazing. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent tiny no frills type of place. The food is exceptional and fresh cooked and served by the chef. It has a very homely feel. Would highly recommend. Great prices as well (almost unseen in Milan) and a hearty meal includes a bottle of water.

Isola Verde is like stepping into your Eritrean/Ethiopian friend’s family home while their mum cooks for you. A true hole-in-the-wall and gem of a place their food is excellent and really cheap. I got their Zighini di Agnello and the beef was perfectly salted; with a .7l bottle of beer I paid €15. In a city filled with world-class fine dining this is the place that Anthony Bourdain would be going to and raving about. No frills just good authentic food.

Light years away - in a positive sense - from the Eritrean restaurants I was used to in Milan: this is a trattoria with genuine, home-made and very tasty cuisine. The owner is very kind and the dishes are freshly prepared (you can hear her cooking in the kitchen). Often when I eat spicy and/or spicy food I am left weighed down and disorganized for hours (due to my lack of habit) but after being at the green island I returned home full and happy. Place of the heart: I can't wait to return to eat new delicacies. Thank you!!!
