NO.MA In Costa masnaga

18/06/2025: the place is very nice, the girl who served was very good and enthusiastic, even explaining the dishes, overall the cuisine is decent, mondeghili are good even if they are not exactly the traditional ones but revisited both in shape and in flavor, the sausage was missing which would have given a bit of a boost to the filling, I agree with the previous review, the cutlet was very greasy and not very tasty, complicated to finish, the accompanying chips were not crispy but I appreciate that they used fresh potatoes, perhaps using the double frying technique they could be much crispier, reviewable the croquette of the leftover breadcrumbs seemed forced to me, I understand that you want to recycle and not waste anything but it adds nothing to an already very opulent dish. overall a decent experience, very basic wine list. the bill is in line, to try again in the future, there is room for growth.

25/05/2025: We had dinner at this restaurant and the experience, overall, was positive. The interior is very well-kept, with an elegant location and an intimate atmosphere that contributes to making the stay pleasant. The à la carte menu is interesting, with well-studied proposals that combine simple ingredients in creative preparations. We ordered two first courses and two second courses. The gnocchi with wild garlic pesto and hazelnuts turned out to be a very well-balanced dish, with a successful and original combination of flavors. The risotto alla monzese, offered off the menu, was good but not exceptional. Unfortunately, the second courses were not as convincing. The cutlets appeared excessively fatty and not very tasty, accompanied by soft and tasteless fried potatoes and a tortello of breadcrumbs and eggs that was definitely avoidable. A positive note came from the dessert: the tonka bean cream was pleasant and well-made. The service was discreet but the bill was a bit high for what we ate. Even with some room for improvement, especially on the main courses, the overall experience was still satisfactory.
