Pizzeria L'Ortiga In Milano

Closed until 6th January even though showing open on google

The best place in the Ortica area of ​​Milan. Excellent pizza by the slice, pasta with zucchini and anchovies superb and al dente, raw and cooked vegetables, and daily specials, all well-cooked and rotating, all delicious. The homemade cheesecake, tiramisu, and cakes are delicious, but not always available. The other desserts are the usual ones that I prefer to avoid. A lot of friendliness as a side dish, always appreciated...

Excellent pizza by the slice, tasty and light. Next time we'll try it in-house; we opted for takeout, which in my opinion is a step below the standard sit-down option.

Truly exceptional pizza by the slice, in my opinion one of the best in Milan. Soft, easy-to-digest dough, quality ingredients, and consistently generous, tasty slices. Fast service and a casual atmosphere: a must-visit for those who love authentic pizza by the slice.

Great thick-crust pizza. Friendly service, delicious food.

Very good pizza, delicious artichoke appetizer. Fast and attentive service.

I must first say that I regret writing this negative review, because before the oven was changed from wood to electric (in compliance with the new regulations in Milan), the pizza was the best ever: thick, crispy on the outside, cooked and soft on the inside. Now, after trying it a few times, my husband and I have decided not to. The inside is always raw, and the whole thing becomes undigestible. The first few times, we thought they'd find the right balance for the oven change, but after three months, nothing has changed, if anything, for the worse. The last time, my husband felt sick from not being able to digest it. I say this to encourage the owners to find a solution to save the pizzeria's good name, because we in the area want our fantastic pizza back!

Takeaway great pizza and great service

Amazing Pizza, Great Atmosphere and very good value for money. Highly recommended when visiting Milan.

The best deep-dish pizza in the world; the one with onions is truly unique, unlike anything else. I also often eat the Margherita, which is a generous size (a quarter of a pan instead of a sixth). The pastiera and the Meneghina with Grand Marnier are also excellent. The only flaw is the slow service, but otherwise, nothing to complain about.
