I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Lombardia

18/08/2025: As often happens, the closer you live to a restaurant, the less likely you are to go! Last night my husband and I decided to eat at this restaurant, which I've known all my life! Let me start by saying that we had attended the Wagyu evening and had a wonderful time. Seeing this type of meat on the menu made us want to try it again. The idea was to have a mixed grill, but to our disappointment, it wasn't on the paper menu; however, it was on the online menu. We "settled" on other dishes, both with this meat and other types...what can I say, everything was divine!! We ate truly well! The service was young and attentive, not intrusive but firm. We were in the area by the windows, so it was more intimate and quiet! We'll definitely see you again. A small tip: remove the word "mixed grill" from the online menu. We hope to see you again for another Wagyu evening; it was top-notch!!

16/08/2025: Everything perfect from the food to the environment.

26/10/2025: Good Neapolitan pizza, fast service, and friendly waiters. Well done!

19/10/2025: Absolutely amazing food,they brought it too us in less than 5 minutes,if you’re hungry and you are close to this place you have to pass by

14/08/2025: Reliable, good Italian food. Some servers are wonderful and attentive. Some are VERY BUSY and difficult to pin down. Good steak. Great for large groups and small. Back garden seating area as well as indoor at front.

13/08/2025: The food was amazing. The melon and prosciutto were amazing. The meat was also delicious.

29/10/2025: I booked based on the information on the website. I was leaving Milan for Lomellina—the home of rice—to eat rice, and I found myself in a restaurant that didn't even have one (yes, one) risotto on the menu. When I asked for information, a young woman, aggressively, told me that the menu changes depending on supplies. I had to laugh when I discovered that in the middle of the rice fields, they don't provide rice, but their pantry was full of octopus (!) and pecorino romano for cacio e pepe (!).

08/09/2025: Osteria Barbavara was a pleasant surprise. We were lucky enough to have lunch there on a Saturday in early September, having stumbled upon it by chance because it was nearby. The food was excellent, with authentic ingredients and homemade pasta. Definitely recommended if you're in the area.

11/10/2025: Excellent pizza, fast service, pleasant atmosphere, reasonable prices.

11/10/2025: Really good pizza. The desserts are also good. Excellent value for money. Charming location. Highly recommended

28/10/2025: A restaurant overlooking the Scaligero Castle. We had lunch for four, sharing an appetizer (very good fried gnocco and excellent hand-sliced ​​raw ham) and pizzas. Nothing exceptional, but good and well-cooked. Excellent value, especially considering the central location and the prices of other restaurants.

15/10/2025: Very expensive, stingy with the quantity

22/09/2025: It is definitely worth a visit, the food is tasty and quick, the location is phenomenal and the service is very courteous, we will gladly come back when we are nearby

18/09/2025: We came for lunch today. We ordered an extremely salty carbonara that we couldn't finish, and a cannelloni with cod and potatoes that was very bland and tough. We waited 40 minutes, which is understandable for a restaurant. The location was very nice, and the staff, including one waitress in particular, was very nice and helpful. When asked if we liked the food, we were honest and said it wasn't exactly exceptional, and they replied that it was impossible for one dish to be bland and tough and the other excessively salty. The overall experience wasn't great. It's certainly a place with a top-notch location and cleanliness, but the food definitely needs a facelift, which is the most important thing in a restaurant. So I don't think I'd return.

21/10/2025: Excellent dinner, original and beautifully presented dishes, quality ingredients. I had a zucchini tart in fondue sauce and then a superb seafood crudités platter. My husband had a meat-only dinner, first a carpaccio with burrata and then a huge, tasty tartare. Service was friendly but a bit slow, but we weren't bothered by it because we weren't in a rush. The price was very fair, and we'll be back soon, especially since the menu is truly extensive and tempting.

20/09/2025: Excellent first and second courses, fabulous and well-topped pizza. The atmosphere is clean and discreet, ideal for a relaxing moment.

26/10/2025: Very rude lady in charge of service. Poor quality food unless you are Italian or a regular. Great wine offer, but would not recommend.

26/10/2025: Very friendly cellar, great pizza, everything was top!!!

16/09/2025: A historic osteria on the Naviglio, with a very characteristic atmosphere, especially the outdoor area along the canal. Delicious dishes, especially the mixed grill served over charcoal.

08/09/2025: A typically traditional restaurant with much larger spaces than it might seem. The interior is large, spacious, welcoming, and bright, but the real gem is the outdoor veranda on the canal bank. Shade is provided by a pergola with lush vegetation, and the setting is decidedly quaint. The service is attentive and courteous. The food is good, though not excellent, but still makes for a pleasant experience. The bill is a bit more expensive than you'd expect, but in line with the times. As for the waiter, I'd say: quaint.

05/11/2025: A very elegant and unique restaurant in Vigevano. The food is good, with medium-high prices.

03/11/2025: I had lunch with my wife, a more than positive experience, good food served by Leo with great kindness and last but not least in one of the most beautiful squares in Italy.

11/10/2025: This hotel is not as advertised. There is no air conditioning in the offseason. If known prior to booking I would have made reservations at a different accommodation. However this was not communicated in person or online. Our room was at 26 degrees Celsius (79 Fahrenheit) in October which is not acceptable with no circulating air. I placed my complaint with that staff and they assure this would be corrected. However it was not. We were told to open the window (that does not fully open) and to use the fan and that most guests prefer 23 degrees Celsius which is not what it is set at. I will be requesting a full refund due to the fact that there is no air conditioning available during the off season despite advertised amenities. For an accommodation located at the “pearl of the lake” I expected more. Especially considering the price. Save you efforts and book elsewhere.

21/09/2025: A fantastic hotel with very friendly staff, I highly recommend it, we will definitely be back

06/11/2025: Besides the lovely location and the kindness of the hostess, we ate truly well! Excellent panzanella, delicious Livorno-style red mullet, a delightfully warm apple pie, and a fantastic nocino liqueur! We'll be back often.

19/09/2025: Dinner for two with a shared appetizer, a first course, a second course, two glasses of wine, and a coffee for €120. Good, but decidedly and unjustifiably expensive. Sorry, but I won't be back.

12/10/2025: The pizza is phenomenal, and the food is also very good and carefully prepared. Whether it's fish or meat, everything is always top-notch. The staff is very friendly.

27/09/2025: Clean place, good food and reasonable prices, highly recommended

14/11/2025: Delicious restaurant. Impeccable service (Asia served us, a cheerful, precise, and very nice girl!) and tonight we tried their "outside Milan" saffron risotto with French-style ossobuco!!! Fun!! I've been looking for it for a while... I finally found it! Delicious! Congratulations to Chef Nicolas! For his skill and initiative! Keep up the good work! P.S. The playlist for the evening was also excellent. Thank you. Micaela

11/11/2025: We chose Il Grotto Bagat for our wedding lunch and couldn't have asked for anything better. The food was excellent, with generous portions and attention to every detail. The service was impeccable: the staff were always present, attentive, and professional, without ever being intrusive. The elegant atmosphere made the day even more special. They accommodated our every request, from the menu to the room decor, from the cake to the wines, demonstrating great availability and extraordinary care. Everything was simply perfect. We recommend Il Grotto Bagat to anyone looking for a unique experience, characterized by quality, attention, and authentic hospitality.
