Ristorante Il Naviglio Grande In Vermezzo

03/02/2026: An experience to remember We visited La Cucina: it's not your average restaurant, and we can confirm: it's not like any other. An intimate atmosphere, obsessive attention to detail, and cuisine that combines technique, flavor, and identity. It begins with a brief welcome from the chef, followed by a selection of artisanal house baked goods (truly remarkable), and from there it's a crescendo: carefully crafted, clean, surprising dishes, with quality ingredients and intelligent pairings. Each course has a purpose; nothing is there "for show." The service is attentive and attentive, the timing is perfect, and you can sense true passion in every step. If you're looking for a special evening, elegant but not stuffy, this is the place. We'll be back. And we recommend it to anyone who wants an experience, not just "eating out."

02/02/2026: Their menu only has Italian, no English, so be sure to bring a translation app. We ordered the set menu shown in the picture. My favorite dish was the second course, Come Un Roast Beef, with beef, tuna puree, and mushrooms—the flavors blended perfectly. The two pastas that followed were excellent: one was penne with chief homemade tomato sauce, which was very good; the other was orzo with minced beef, diced onions, and cheese—it was very fragrant at first bite, but personally, I found it a bit too salty. The desserts were all delicious, with distinctly Italian ingredients and preparation methods. They weren't overly sweet, which is the highest praise I could give them. Chief was also very friendly. After asking where we were from, he encouraged us to write our review in our own language for a more authentic experience. Overall, it was a very good experience; both the ambiance and the food are highly recommended.
