We came late at l1030, but they still sat us. They were kind enough to split all dishes and gave us many extras. The sommelier came out and helped us choose wine and even provided a homemade digestive. Oh the dessert was delicious but overall the service and the special small things like changing forks between dishes really made this an outstanding place to eat!

Far from being a gem full of small intimate bars and great shops Naviglio has become a tourism machine pumping out pizza and Apero to unsuspecting locals and tourists. BUT I am a fan of this restaurant. Its a functional dining room with plain wooden tables and chairs and workmanlike walls no velvet and carpets here. The food is the star (as they say) and the staff are a close second. We didn't opt for the 5 or 7 course taster menu but choose from the very short a la carte menu. This is exceptional fine dining full of flavour, a delight to the eye and remarkably good value. The staff were amazing, taking time to explain the dishes and patient with my atrocious Italian. To them, the extras to our meal were very much appreciated. My only comments are that the mains are perhaps slightly too large. Excellent in a tasting menu but as stand alone dishes they ultimately lacked variety. I was also disappointed by some of our fellow guests who were obviously only there for their social media profiles and left most of the excellent food.

We enjoyed the 8 course degustation menu and let me tell you we ended up discussing each course from the first bite on, savouring the small surprises hidden in them. The sardene Macrons, the bees wax ravioli and the white fish on rooibos reduction were my absolute favourites and will be forever in my mind. The bread dessert was also delightful. I had problems to understand the chef explaining that the reduction is made from rooibos so he promptly went off and brought me a small dish full of the ingredient, so I could identify it by myself. It was so nice and such a human moment between food enthusiasts. Thank you, chef. If you decide to go for the 8 course menu, don't fall into the trap of eating too much of the delicious freshly baked bread (despite the burnt onion butter going with it). We were extremely full, but oh so happy. I cannot wait to come back in a few years to see this place having a star on its door. Highly recommend for you to visit as soon as possible.

There's a window into the kitchen so you get to see all the magic. The staff and service was also great! The sommelier had excellent wine recommendations so please ask for recommendations for your meal. The meal started with gorgeous amuse bouche's, which were all delicious. There was one pasta dish something with a seafood broth that was really memorable. The rest felt a bit flat. Perfectly fine and nothing to complain about. It's one of the better options in the area but at that price point, you can find better options further away.

We chose à la carte as this was our first time here so were not sure what the experience would be, but next time we will go for the tasting menu as we now know we can blindly trust the chef on whatever they want to send to the table.
