La cala In Milano

I had already been to you with a Sardinian wine producer and I must say that we had a great time with the food. The portion of fregola is a little smaller than normal. I give only one piece of advice to the owner, fire the dark-skinned boy who appears to be South American. He annoyed and bothered two Russian girls in a heavy way who were at the table next to us without paying attention to us. I tell you, when I asked what the wines were by the glass, he couldn't answer me. This scene went on until the two girls, as soon as they had eaten their meal, ran away. I wouldn't have even paid the bill if I were them. Embarrassing

I would like to respond to Gianmauro Carlone's review, which unfortunately there is no possibility to leave a comment under his review. First of all, my colleague and I often have lunch at La Cala and we've always had a good time! The gentleman indicated above reported that a waiter was bothering two Russian girls, me being Ukrainian and my Russian colleague, as underlined by South American Gianmauro according to his observation, but being a bit superficial he may not have noticed that we were just joking with each other there, as we do every time when we are at La Cala for lunch, otherwise we would have told the waiter to leave us alone, and we didn't run away, having an hour for lunch we are always in a hurry to get back to work in time. This waiter is always very attentive, as are all the staff at La Cala, they are always very attentive and kind, so I wish Mr. Gianmauro before writing complaints against others, be sure that they really have the reason even if it were done with good intentions, it is better to write exclusively for yourself first.

Linguine all'astice, fiori di zucca and other dishes were very good, a really nice Sardinian restaurant. Mirto at the end of the dinner was much appreciated, thank you! 😊

I have been visiting this restaurant for a long time, now after renovation it has become more modern, the seafood is fresh, the pasta is delicious, the tomatoes straight from Sardinia are also very tasty... For those who have a sweet tooth, there are very original desserts... The only thing is that there are difficulties with parking, I recommend taking a taxi... .

Excellent quality of raw materials, fast and attentive service. We will definitely be back. Highly recommended

The portions are not too large, the fish is fresh and I found the dishes good. I've only been there once, I think I'll come back and try other dishes. Disappointing desserts in my opinion and perhaps excessively priced for what we consumed compared to quality and quantity.

Ottimo ristorante di pesce, in un locale ristrutturato e rimodernato ottimamente. servizio veloce e cortese, e conto finale, con due piatti a persona, intorno a 60 euro a persona

Era qualche anno che non ci andavamo, locale ristrutturato ed ingrandito. Secondo i nostri gusti fatto davvero bene. Passando al cibo delizioso, crudo di ottima qualità, gamberi rossi di grande pezzatura e squisiti ostriche molto buone. Tartare e primi sorprendenti, prezzi adeguati per la qualità offerta

L'ambiente è stato rimodernato di recente e risulta moderno, lindo, ma asettico, con poca personalità e tale per cui definirlo elegante è eccessivo. La cucina è essenzialmente (ma non esclusivamente) di pesce ed è fortemente ispirata dalla tradizione sarda. Ho assaggiato: antipasto di mare caldo, lorighitas con calamari e bottarga, tarte tatin con gelato. Tutto molto buono e ben presentato. La carta dei vini è abbastanza ampia, con proposte interessanti e con buona presenza di etichette sarde. Il servizio è stato di qualità diversa a seconda di chi l'ha prestato: in un caso è stato empatico ed efficiente, in un altro un po' rozzo e poco adeguato. Anche l'accoglienza, leggermente impacciata, meriterebbe una messa a punto. Per quel che ho mangiato, oltre che per una buona bottiglia di vino (e mirto generosamente offerto) ho speso circa 65€. Questo locale ha l'ambizione di diventare (o già di essere) un punto di riferimento culinario per la zona e la sua cucina di qualità gli consente di perseguirla. Però dà anche l'impressione di essere in una fase di assestamento in cui il servizio e forse l'ambiente andrebbero, a mio avviso, perfezionati per essere a livello dell' ambizione.

Excellent food & seafood! All the Italian seafood from the coast was delicious. We love our host/waiter Marco. He took care there no food allergens for me, And he was delightful for my friend & I! Wonderful experience in Milano! Restaurant even called taxis for us!
