Ristorante Xiangbalao In Milano

03/10/2025: Good food, both Italian and Chinese.

14/09/2025: This family-run Italian-Chinese restaurant, with a bit of an '80s-'90s vibe, is very popular (a good sign). The staff is very friendly and helpful, and takeout is also available, and they're also very quick and punctual with their preparation and delivery. The menu is quite extensive, but in my opinion, the Chinese dishes are truly worth it. The meat and shrimp ravioli (both steamed and grilled) are truly excellent, truly plump and delicious, as are the spring rolls. The rice noodles and vegetable gnocchi are also good. I wasn't thrilled with the stir-fried spaghetti, perhaps lacking in sauce compared to the pasta. We also tried the pizza, which is obviously different from the classic Italian pizza—it was breadier, but I have to say it tasted quite good. I'd say it's excellent value for money.
