I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Monza e della brianza

01/09/2025: The pizza is good and made with excellent ingredients, reasonably priced, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Table 2C is perhaps a little dark; perhaps a lamp would be helpful so we could see what's on our plates, and a few less palm trees. It's not fair to constantly take photos and videos and end up on Instagram without permission. Otherwise, it's fine.

31/08/2025: Beautiful location, fast and impeccable service, excellent gourmet pizzas, surprising wide choice in the list of bitters/whiskeys/grappas

02/08/2025: Last July 5th, we celebrated our wedding at Il Faro Restaurant. From day one, both Stefano and Duilio were there for us with every detail, doing everything possible to make our day truly ours. They went out of their way to accommodate our every request, both organizationally and regarding the menu. Speaking of the menu, all our guests complimented us on the excellent quality of the food, from appetizers to dessert. The location was also perfect for the sunset photo session. We definitely recommend Il Faro, both as a restaurant (we even dined there as guests) and for celebrating events. We would like to thank Stefano, Duilio, and the entire staff again for their professionalism and empathy.

26/07/2025: Excellent restaurant. Top-notch food. Giorgio is the best waiter a customer could ask for. My friends Valentina and Lucrezia and I will definitely be back.

09/09/2025: Pleasant atmosphere right next to the park, very friendly staff and fairly fast service, very good pizza and fair prices.

01/09/2025: Thin, crispy, and tasty pizza. Welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff. Always a pleasure. Great job!

27/06/2025: This is worth the price, the food, the service, and the ambience. One of the best Bergamese lamb that I tasted.

26/06/2025: We discovered this place through the fork, very satisfied with the experience. From the outside I wouldn't have said it, but inside everything was excellent. Really good dishes, particular combinations but with the right balance, noteworthy presentations. Very attentive and kind service. They delighted us with entrées and a very refreshing pre-dessert. Prices adequate for the quality and quantity. Portions right, not small at all. Normal internal location, some small details that could be improved but ok. I recommend it!

21/06/2025: We are regulars at this restaurant and it is always a pleasure to return! We always have a great time: the atmosphere is welcoming, the service impeccable and the quality of the dishes is truly excellent. Salvatore always welcomes us with a smile, as do all the staff, always kind and attentive. They make you feel at home, and this really makes the difference. A special mention goes to the Tiramisu appetizer: a one-of-a-kind dish, absolutely extraordinary! It is a real taste experience that we recommend to anyone who visits the restaurant - to try at least once (and then it will be impossible to do without!). Highly recommended!

18/05/2025: An exceptional experience from start to finish! I was satisfied and impressed by this restaurant. The staff was kind and professional, but never too intrusive. The location was really well-kept in every detail from the dining room to the bathroom. The menu features innovative and well-prepared dishes. what can I say….. a real gem in the heart of Desio. I highly recommend! Thank you.

29/06/2025: We returned yesterday evening (after years) to celebrate our wedding anniversary... what can I say... suitable location... to celebrate your anniversaries... and why not... a convivial dinner with friends... the friendly waiter... attentive to everything and very professional... also the owner... truly professional with his kindness... and his know-how... the menu excellent quality price... everything very well taken care of.. from the small details.. well done we will definitely return!

26/08/2025: Pleasant evening, excellent service and great food, very comfortable atmosphere.

08/08/2025: Very good cuisine, attentive staff, great wines

25/07/2025: Worth it, beautiful internal courtyard for outdoor dining. Inside, the vaulted brick ceilings are very evocative. The food is excellent, especially the grilled meats. Very good!!! The staff is extremely kind and helpful, and they're committed to pampering their customers. Top marks!

28/06/2025: A fantastic steakhouse, with a wide selection of grilled dishes. Very helpful and qualified staff. Really special environment surrounded by greenery and other beautiful places. Everything very good, I recommend it for a meat-based dinner or to taste excellent cocktails outdoors or in the suggestive rooms with brick vaults. Excellent quality price

12/07/2025: Terribile esperienza. La carne, una volta fiore all’occhiello di questo ristorante, era praticamente immangiabile. La stessa cosa per lo gnocco fritto e il culatello (terribili). Un primo a base di pesce che meritava di essere mandato indietro. Deve essere successo qualcosa in cucina.

27/06/2025: Dinner with excellent fish on the terrace with a view. Everything was delicious and the staff was really kind and helpful even with our little dog

03/07/2025: Excellent service and very good dishes, very welcoming atmosphere

06/05/2025: I always have a doubt. Do the 5 stars relate to the best restaurants you've experienced? That is, only one has 5 stars and the others must necessarily be lower? For me it's very simple: 5 stars is where I've had a great time and would return, so "Il Pollino" deserves them all. I was about to go to McDonald's since my usual lunch break restaurant was closed. Then I see "il Pollino" and I say to myself "I'm a big belly, I would say to stop eating rubbish, today let's eat healthy". The place is small and intimate. It is run by an energetic lady who is always smiling and very professional. At lunch they don't show the menu, she tells you how it used to be. I had an excellent amatriciana, a second course of grilled chicken with a drizzle of lemon and a mix of grilled vegetables and potatoes. All very good and homemade. A beautiful discovery. And the service was extremely fast. I will definitely come back when I'm in the area... to try again in the evening for a dinner with friends or with your current partner/wife/girlfriend. Maybe I wouldn't use it for a first date... but who knows! Nice work!

04/08/2025: Last night I ate some really excellent gnocchi alla sorrentina, congratulations

02/08/2025: ...I still have doubts about whether in football "MARADONA is better than PELE'" or on the grill "SWAMI is better than SASHI"...we'll try it again in September...bye...ANTONIO😉

13/08/2025: Excellent service. The cover charge is €4, though....

10/08/2025: Ordered a plate of raw fish, sent it back because it smelled bad. Grilled swordfish was inedible and sent back. The rest was fine. At the cashier, asked not to pay for the uneaten dishes. The reply was, "I already charged you 13 euros..." "Whoa!"

29/08/2025: Second time and like the first you can't go wrong...always excellent service and friendliness...Meat and cured meats of excellent quality and in abundance...

28/08/2025: Nothing special, the atmosphere is bland, and it's hard to see why there's such a difference between the upstairs and downstairs areas. We definitely won't be returning!
