I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Monza e della brianza

15/08/2025: I've had takeout pizzas, and they're really good and light. They stayed that way even when you got them home, whereas they usually become rubbery after takeout. Congratulations 👍

21/06/2025: Pulcinella a guarantee, excellent pizza and super staff. See you soon.

31/07/2025: I ran into an old friend of mine who I hadn't seen in years. The place is a great hangout, and we had a couple of rounds of beers. I would have preferred more appetizers, but the beers are excellent and the staff is incredibly friendly. I'll definitely be back to see if we can get a 5-star rating.

11/07/2025: I had an aperitif dinner; the food itself was good, and the price-quality ratio was fair. The waiters' behavior was disappointing when we pointed out the problem of wasps circling the table. I understand it's not an easy problem to resolve, and I don't expect it to be resolved right away, but I do expect the waiters to at least address me politely and seek a solution. That, however, was truly lacking. What a shame!

09/10/2025: Not recommended. I never write negative reviews, but this time I had no choice. A dish served with a hair, prices higher than the menu without any warning, and a bill that was €20 more than it should have been. Avoid.

06/09/2025: I've never seen worse service, an hour of waiting for a table and another hour for a plate of pasta... only two girls to manage everything, you ask for something and obviously a second later it's all forgotten.

10/07/2025: Excellent cuisine Excellent Pizza A place to frequent often

03/07/2025: Excellent coffee, good croissants

02/10/2025: I ordered takeout, Coke 0 and sweet piadina never arrived, I tried calling several times and no answer!!!! And in all this I'm waiting!! I had ordered the dessert on purpose

02/10/2025: THE PARKING LOT Arrival. First mission: parking. The parking lot isn't Malpensa Airport, but it's not the dead-end street outside my house either: a space shared with American Graffiti. A sort of car condominium, but I always find my spot in the end. And that, in itself, puts me in a good mood. THE ROOM: LIGHT, AIR, AND STRESS-FREE TABLES I enter and breathe. It's an airy, bright place, with enough tables to avoid ending up eating on your neighbor's knee. Here, the concept of "fast food" doesn't just mean "eating quickly," but also "not staying too long": and so the turnover is natural, a bit like the tides. If you want a seat, don't despair: there's almost always a place to find. THE MENU "La Piadineria" is a chain, and it shows: the layout and menu are replicated like a successful copy-and-paste. But at least the piadina can be customized: regular, whole wheat, and even a few variations that make those who have recently made peace with the scale feel less guilty. A wide selection, even for chronically indecisive palates. SERVICE Here, the story becomes epic. Behind the counter, there's almost always just one person: a human multitasker who darts between the register and the coffee machine with the grace of a caffeinated hummingbird. The result? The line gets longer, people huff and puff, the neurotic ones start their foot-tapping dance. Then, finally, you order, and, surprise, the piadina arrives as fast as lightning. WELCOME: CHRONICLE OF AN ABSENCE FORETOLD Don't expect Hollywood smiles or greetings: here, no one asks "how are you." But it's not rudeness, it's survival. When you work with lines of impatient hungry people, the time for "welcome" evaporates. PRICE AND QUALITY: THE BILL (ALMOST) PAYS OFF Here comes the trickiest part: the price. It's not exactly "fast food" (forget the €5 menu with a drink included). But the quality is there; the piadina is good and easy to digest. CONCLUSION "La Piadineria" is the perfect place for a quick break that won't make you miss the company cafeteria. An experience that balances pragmatism and the poetry of simplicity. Final rating: three stars (with a round of applause for the counter athlete, who deserves a gold medal).

16/10/2025: I often pass through the area for work and enjoy stopping here. It's a great place for a quick break. The atmosphere is welcoming and the service is quick. Barbara, in particular, is always kind and smiling, something that's becoming increasingly rare these days. A small gesture that really makes a difference!

15/10/2025: For work, I often travel around Lombardy. Today I stopped at the Torri Bianche for a quick break and found a really nice and cheerful saleswoman at the counter: Thanks to Barbara for the delicious coffee affogato she made me... It really made my day 👍👍👍

13/09/2025: It was closed and on the website it said open

19/08/2025: Beautiful place, well-kept and with qualified and kind staff

14/05/2025: I took a €13 work menu for lunch, cacio e pepe, pork burger and a kind of porchetta, boiled potatoes and fruit salad. Let's start with the bread, old and hard, the cacio e pepe pasta made with cream and without pecorino, the burger was raw, the boiled potatoes were cold and hard, the fruit salad was the only thing that was good, in conclusion, terrible.

21/04/2025: Nightmare hotel! Very old hotel, in need of renovation. Horrendous bathrooms without shower tray with a drain drain. Definitely not a 3 star! In 2025 it is not possible to have such a structure! In the corridor there was an unpleasant smell! In the back entrance courtyard there was an accumulation of rubbish which was not nice to look at. Not recommended for families and beyond! In one word AWFUL!

28/03/2025: Excellent breakfast with cakes...the bar also works as a tobacconist!

05/10/2025: I was out and about in Seregno one stormy morning when a bar came into view. As I walked in, I could smell the artisanal coffee. The staff at the counter were friendly and bright. I had two coffees and a croissant and appreciated how clean the place was. ☕️☕️

04/10/2025: I stopped by on a cloudy Saturday around lunchtime. It was empty, but still, as is often the case with many places, they weren't chatting or distracted, and they kept me waiting. The female staff were welcoming, smiling, and courteous. The coffee was good (with the dirty water from the coffee brewed earlier dispensed; lately, it's been a miracle to find baristas who do this) accompanied by a glass of water, a rare treat in the north, and homemade brownies. All this at an excellent price/quality ratio for a clean, bright, and well-designed bar, just steps from the train station. Everyone judges based on their own needs and what they received.

02/09/2025: I've been ordering takeout for years. Pizzas made with quality ingredients, well-leavened and easy-to-digest dough. The pulled pork sandwich is also excellent, not to mention the Nutella cheesecake, which is heavenly. You have to order ahead of time and have a little patience. They've gotten an order wrong because they were so busy, but they've always been quick to fix it. Well done, guys!

03/07/2025: First experience, home delivery Arrived on time Everything was pretty good, I will definitely order again, maybe I will go in person, to try something else and update my review Very varied and interesting menu

19/05/2025: Excellent pastry shop in Desio, can make gluten-free or normal cakes. We have a guest intolerant to gluten, we used the latter and I must say that it was really beautiful and good! The owner at first sight seemed very sure of herself and now we know why! Just look at what a beautiful cake she made, a few instructions were enough and the result was fully achieved!

11/05/2025: I purchased some pastries on May 10th for my birthday, thinking I would receive fresh produce of the day. After the purchase, upon my request, I was issued an indemnity to take to a place and only then, as written, did I discover that the desserts were not fresh and had been produced on 8-9 May (deadline reported as 13 May). Unfortunately, the quality confirmed my doubts: the pastries were not good, the creams were hard, the puff pastry was dry and the cannoncini were soft. It all felt stale. Obviously they advanced, it was awkward with the guests. In the photo you can notice the soft and stale appearance of the cannoncino that I tried to eat this morning, I'll let you imagine the flavour. All this for a good 40 euros (wasted) for just over 30 pastries. Bad experience, won't be back. I do not recommend.

01/09/2025: Terrible experience: the piadina was practically just salad, there were barely 5 grams of chicken, never again

26/07/2025: Excellent piadina, well-cooked and well-filled. The staff is very fast and friendly. I highly recommend this place.

14/08/2025: Lunch included a first course, second course, side dish, water, and coffee for €12. After the first course, the second course (lemon chicken) arrived: upon first bite, I noticed an unusual flavor. Shortly after, the waiter took the dish away, saying the kitchen had asked me not to eat it. At the cashier, the girl confirmed that "the meat wasn't fresh this morning." When it came time to get the bill, instead of the expected €12, they asked me for €13, explaining that "the first course and side dish cost this much," as if I had chosen this option myself. I found it surprising that, despite acknowledging the problem with the second course, the price was not only not adjusted, but actually increased.

21/05/2025: I ate pasta with prawns but the pasta was raw, we asked for bread twice and not knowing anything, they also made us pay €3 each, cover charge €3 and water €3, coffee €3, with a reduced menu (3 first courses, 3 second courses) paying €22 for a dish in which there was a very small portion of pasta.
