Osteria del Portone In Melegnano

Highly recommended, with a refined and welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, and truly excellent traditional cuisine (and more), made with top-quality ingredients! If we ever pass through Melegnano again, we'll definitely be back.

Osteria Il Portone is a true osteria, just like it used to be, authentic and welcoming. Traditional cuisine is well-crafted, with authentic flavors and dishes that taste like home. You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the passion in every course. The atmosphere is warm and convivial, ideal for both a quiet dinner and an evening with friends. The service is friendly, attentive, and just the right amount of informal, making you feel immediately at ease. Excellent value for money and an atmosphere that makes you want to return. A place to remember and recommend without hesitation.

Always a pleasant lunch break with an excellent glass of red wine

Always a sure thing. We celebrated a graduation with a menu of 10 appetizers + 1 first course: quality products and generous portions. The service was courteous and helpful. I also recommend it for a special dinner.

Went here today for the first time, Christmas lunch with the family! The place was welcoming right away, and they were careful to reserve a table since I was having some issues. The menu features traditional recipes and other choices, both fish and meat. The wines? 🍷 Fantastic description, careful presentation and description of the wine. We tried a bit of everything for the appetizers, and were both satisfied. First courses included well-cooked risotto, and the tender ossobuco, melt-in-the-mouth. Homemade pasta was delicious, of course. Generous portions, so you could try a bit of everything. The second course was sautéed, and then we moved on to dessert, which was a delight and delicious too. We finished with coffee, accompanied by chocolate pralines and almonds. Well-deserved compliments, everyone was satisfied! Needless to say...recommended.

I went with friends to try the food festival menus. The appetizers and desserts were very good. The main courses were average, but the first courses were a bit disappointing. Overall, the quality/price ratio was good, with generous portions. I appreciated the attention paid to developing young waiters: there were two novices who were left to serve, but after each course, the older waiter gave them tips on how to improve.

A welcoming place where you feel pampered from start to finish. Excellent mixed cured meats appetizer. Delicious porcini mushroom risotto. Worth repeating and highly recommended even for the most demanding palates. Thank you.

Excellent place for lunch or dinner, you can also enjoy the Lodi festival

Cozy place. Friendly staff. Excellent food.

Nice place, but a bit too noisy I visited this restaurant in the center of Melegnano on the recommendation of friends. The place is well-decorated, welcoming, and has an interesting menu, but honestly, I was expecting something different, perhaps also because of the many rave reviews. The food is good, well-presented, and with some creative touches, but the portions aren't particularly generous. The service is courteous, though a bit slow at times. The real downside, however, was the noise in the dining room: it was far too loud, especially during peak hours, making it difficult to have a quiet conversation. Overall, it was a good experience, but there are some areas where it could be improved. I might return, perhaps at a quieter time.
