Seafood restaurant in Piazza Gramsci, just steps from Chinatown.
You can dine inside the air-conditioned restaurant or at the tables outside. A basket with a selection of regular and whole-wheat rolls, carasau bread, tarallini, and breadsticks is always served at your table.
I ate:
- Sautéed mussels and clams: good, even the sauce was good enough to mop up the sauce.
- Octopus, potato, and celery salad: fresh, different from the usual; I would have preferred a few more potatoes, not exceptional.
- Maccheroncini al ferretto with rock octopus ragù: good and flavorful octopus ragù, excellent macaroni. I wasn't thrilled with what I thought was a mixture of breadcrumbs and spices; perhaps it dried out the dish a bit, and it tasted like unseasoned breadcrumbs. Maybe it's just my impression.
- Mediterranean scampi from Mazara del Vallo: a great portion for sharing, the fish was fresh, the flavor excellent, but expensive.
- Sicilian cassata: very good, the waiter told us it's homemade. Traditional!
The waiters are kind and helpful, but not so much the gentleman who greeted me at the door. The owner made sure to greet everyone at the table and ask how their dinner went.
Overall, good, but I'm not sure I'd go back, especially considering the price.

Giulia's is always a guarantee! The raw fish is fantastic, but everything is top-notch. They're super friendly and professional.

Lunch, Thursday 19 June at 1 pm, only customers. I live abroad and this restaurant has always been a must-see during my stops in Milan. A safe place to eat good raw and cooked fish and Sicilian specialties. Unfortunately today was disappointing. The raw appetizer was good and very fresh, the seafood risotto was mediocre, because the bay leaves covered the other flavors. The calamari were tender but their delicate flavor was totally destroyed by the bay leaves. 4 mussels, one of which was closed, three clams and two shrimp adorned the plate without however adding that touch of seafood flavor that makes seafood risotto a feast for the palate. After coffee, even though we were the only and I repeat only customers, no one asked us if we would like a bitter or a limoncello. No obligation, however...Small negative note, in the bathroom, with the restaurant empty, the wastepaper basket used to dry your hands was overflowing. No one had bothered to check that everything was in order and impeccable. The owners looked like those who have or are about to give up the place. And this could be an explanation. And who knows? Too bad.

First experience. Very good food and very well prepared. Personally it was a very positive experience. Price in line with seafood restaurants in Milan. Bottle of wine from a Sicilian winery. I will be back!

Dopo aver visto la trasmissione di Borghese, abbiamo deciso di provare il locale. Personale di sala cortese ed attento, una menzione speciale alle signorina bionda, veramente preparata. cortese ed attenta. Servizio rapido. veniao al cibo, materia prima di qualita', cucinata con rara maestria. Consiglio ilbaccala' mantecato ed il fritto dell signora Giulia (da urlo). Vini, ottimo rapporto prezzo qualita'. Se si vuol trovare un difetto, consiglierei di curare i servizi igienici, non all'altezza del locale. Ci ritorneremo senz'altro. Prezzi nella media.

Dopo diversi tempo ci siamo decisi prenotare un tavolo. Ci siamo pentiti di non aver prenotato prima. Assolutamente da provare
