Pizzeria e frigitoria Made in Italy In Agrate brianza

11/05/2026: Really great food, very friendly staff!

07/05/2026: We wanted to introduce some friends from Belgium to authentic Brianza cuisine, and, following a recommendation, we opted for this historic Monza restaurant. The atmosphere is pleasant, with exposed brick and beautifully accented arches. Service was prompt and adequate, although the bread wasn't particularly fragrant. As for the appetizers, there's nothing to complain about about the quality of the Montevecchia cheeses, served on a thin layer of oil that isn't particularly fragrant. The charcuterie board is basic in quantity, but the ingredients are good. We had some concerns about the first courses: the risotto alla Monzese and the risotto alla Milanese, well-creamed but with slightly too soft grains, were identical in base, with the only difference being two pieces of sausage placed on top in the former. The ossobuco was more disappointing: the meat was rather dry; the gremolada was missing (perhaps a choice by the chef), and the sauce resembled that used to season the risotto sausages, resulting in a lack of character. The desserts were good, the classics. I expected the traditional torta paesana (country cake) as per the menu, but I had to settle for a Kraut-style Sacher torte. Overall, it was a decent experience, appreciated by the foreign guests, but a little less so by me, a native of Brianza, who was hoping to find a special place, especially considering my expectations tied to tradition.
