Rifugio Dumenza In Dumenza

12/06/2026: A restaurant in the center of Gallarate, offering outdoor seating in the summer in a beautifully landscaped courtyard with background music. Attentive and friendly service. The dishes are carefully prepared and the portions are generous. The appetizers and pesto pasta are excellent; the seafood scialatielli were plentiful but not as tasty. During dinner, we saw some very tempting Florentine steaks being grilled in full view of the diners. We'll try them next time. Wide selection of wines. Prices are average for Gallarate.

06/06/2026: My partner and I came to Milan for a friend's wedding, and the groom booked us at this guesthouse. It wasn't the style I usually book, but what did I think? The building dates back to 1700 (don't worry, it's been renovated). The service is incredibly welcoming, and the food is like something a mother would make for her family—authentic, traditional Italian. If you can choose the suite, it's spectacular: about 70 square meters plus a terrace. It's five minutes from Malpensa Airport and five minutes from the train station, which takes you to the center of Milan in 30 minutes. It's infinitely cheaper than similar places in Milan. Michele and Rosa gave us fantastic service.
