La Tenda Rosa In Milano

01/05/2025: Best Florentine steak I've ever eaten.....I've been trying for over 20 years but I still haven't found anything better! Definitely the tastiest in Milan.

27/03/2025: The best Fiorentina in Milan After a long time I returned to this restaurant for dinner with my wife. The restaurant has old origins as it has been present since 1969 in the same location in Milan. Initially opened by Mr. Angelo, a true Tuscan, from whom he takes his name, unfortunately passed away a few years ago, and is now managed by his two sons: one takes care of the kitchen and the other in the dining room. The interior has a warm and welcoming decor, forget about hi-tech, soft lights and various pandering: here what matters is eating well... and you eat well! In order to better savor the Florentine we left out the first courses today, however, promising to "make up" for the lack next time which will surely be there soon. We therefore started with two appetizers of excellent bruschetta with lard and livers and we shared a plate of Tuscan raw ham cut with a knife which has nothing to envy of the much mentioned Spanish jamon serrano. Then comes our classic real Florentine steak on the bone which is the restaurant's signature dish: I have no doubts in recognizing that for us it is the best Florentine steak eaten in Milan, and beyond! Tender, lean but with that little bit of fat that doesn't hurt at all, cooked rare, salted and peppered just right, soaked (not drowned) in extra virgin olive oil. As a side dish we took a plate of spinach and one of grilled Trevisana. All accompanied by an excellent 2020 Carignano red wine. We then concluded with a slice of homemade apple pie, coffee and bitters. Final bill normal. In conclusion, what can I say? Beautiful evening, excellent food, friendly and attentive but never intrusive staff, ready to advise you and satisfy your every need. In short, it deserves all 5 stars! Until next time!
