Osteria dello Strecciolo In Robbiate

15/06/2025: Exceptional place. Quality food and service. The only flaw is perhaps the quantity of the dishes, especially the second courses.

14/06/2025: UPDATE 12/6/25 We ate with the whole family on the veranda. Despite the prohibitive summer temperatures, the shade and the plants helped us a lot, we did not suffer from the heat at all, witness (involuntary) the 3 month old granddaughter.. TOP staff as well as the dishes on the menu. Excellent! ‐------------ Magical atmosphere both for the location (a farmhouse expertly restored by the owner who is a surveyor very attentive to the "original" conservation of the works) and for the staff from which you can perceive a serene, collaborative and friendly working environment. The two Labradors Polpetta (Etta for intimates) and Blu like their human mother with whom we pleasantly entertained and who told us how their adventure in wine production and catering began. The food is simply FANTASTIC, tasty and not at all greasy. It is known that to make an appreciable food, often you use very tasty condiments, for example by creaming the risotto with mascarpone. Here this does not happen thanks to the wise and careful choice of basic ingredients. Suffice it to say that we tasted a typical Lombard dish, cassœula, which is essentially a stew made with cabbage and various parts of pork including the rind. Normally, consuming this dish for dinner is not advisable as it is difficult to digest, and the Lombard tradition even provides for a "preparation" based on grappa to be consumed before lunch with cassœula. Well we had dinner with onion soup risotto as first courses and a second course based on cassœula... slept peacefully!! Last, but not least, the truly excellent wine of their production, thanks to the large vineyards of their property visible arriving at this wonderful restaurant. It deserves 6 stars. Congratulations!
