That's Vapore Gae Aulenti In Milano

21/08/2025: I stayed in Milan for one night and, after hearing excellent reviews, decided to dine here with my wife. The restaurant is cozy and family-run, with only the mother and her son taking care of everything, which gives it a very personal and authentic touch. Before I mention the food, I want to highlight the hospitality. In many touristic places in Italy, we felt that if you don’t speak the language, people can sometimes be unfriendly or impatient. However, this was a wonderful exception. The son was incredibly welcoming, kind, and always trying to explain and help, which made us feel at home right away. Now to the food — simply the best we had in Italy. As a welcome, they served us bread with extra virgin olive oil, and I can honestly say I had never tasted oil of such high quality in my life. We ordered the tuna tartare with lime and mint, the tortelli with cheese and pear, and the spaghetti with fresh lobster. Each dish was outstanding — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. This is not the cheapest place in Milan, but it is absolutely worth it for the quality and experience. If you love good food and appreciate genuine hospitality, I strongly recommend visiting — you will not regret it.

08/08/2025: Having just arrived in Milan we took a recommendation from the Man in Seat 61 and tried this beautiful little restaurant near to our hotel. We were not disappointed because the food was delicious and the service was very friendly and welcoming. If we return to Milan I hope we will be able to eat here again. I had the Milanese risotto it was gorgeous and everyone else in my family also loved their meals.
