La Refezione In Garbagnate milanese

The cozy vibe, great food, and awesome wine were amazing — but what we’ll remember most is the warmth and hospitality of your whole team, from the service to the kitchen. You really made us feel like family.

We've been coming here two or three times a year now. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, the owner is friendly and always ready to offer that little extra something. The price is reasonable considering the type of restaurant. Recommended

I've been wanting to try "La Refezione" for a while, partly because I live quite close by and the reviews I'd been hearing were overwhelmingly positive. Finally, I had the opportunity for lunch, and what can I say? It's simply impossible not to give this place top marks, enchanting in every way. Let's start with the location: the restaurant is located inside a sports club, nestled in a quiet, green area that feels like a true oasis of serenity. Not that Garbagnate is a major metropolis, but this corner is truly charming and lets you unwind as soon as you step inside. Inside, the rooms are incredibly spacious, airy, and furnished with a simple, modern taste that never feels oppressive or pretentious. There's elegance, but you immediately feel at ease. And then there's the welcome, the service. Here, we're truly beyond par. From the managers who welcome you with a sincere smile, to the attentive yet unobtrusive wait staff, to the chefs you can glimpse at work in the kitchen. Let's face it, you go to a restaurant to eat, but the setting and the people can transform a good meal into a memorable one, and they know it very well here. But let's get to the point: the food. We opted for the tasting menu. Unfortunately, it's not the same one I see now on the website, so my memory falters and I don't remember every single course in detail. But it doesn't matter, because the memory of the quality is crystal clear. Everything was excellent, with a couple of peaks of pure excellence. The first course, a dish with shrimp, porcini mushrooms, and potatoes: a masterful balance, with each ingredient absorbing and reflecting the flavors of the others, a true harmony. The second course, which literally stunned me with its simplicity, was the beef fillet baked with oil, rosemary, and poached garlic. It might seem like a "banal" dish, almost home-cooked. And yet it was a masterpiece. Perfectly cooked, tender and flavorful meat that melted in your mouth, and a matching olive oil that just had to be there! Paradoxically, it's precisely from these essential dishes that you understand everything: the absolute quality of the ingredients and the skill of those in the kitchen. If I were to split hairs, perhaps the three-meat lasagna, delicious as it may be, would have benefited from a minute less in the oven to be perfect. But it's truly a minor detail in an impeccable journey. The philosophy that permeates this place is that of a cuisine rooted in tradition, yet capable of reinterpreting and enriching it with flavor and respect, without distorting it (which wouldn't be a bad thing in itself, but it needs to be done in a way that gives it meaning, not just for gratuitous showmanship). In short, I hope I'll have the opportunity to return soon. I recommend it without the slightest reservation. Truly well done.
