It was a quiet Monday early evening in Milan. We enjoyed the first sitting at 6.30pm en route to Teatro alla Scalla. The service was attentive and very pleasant and the menu while short was very adequate. We enjoyed a sea bass for 2 in salt. And prior had some very good home made pasta. A little tip : when sea bass cooked in salt is ordered it is good to show the fish in advance of cooking and then after roasting cracking the salt pile off to reveal the steaming fish. It’s a small addition but helps with the experience ! All told the meal was very good.

Great spot for dinner. Food was delicious. Only suggestion would be to have more piedmont local wines available by the glass.

The Risotto here was the best I've had in Italy. All the dishes turned out well, and we had nothing to complain about. Portions seemed rather small by Italian standards. We had a table of 12 and the bill worked up to $1,350 Euros thereabouts. 2 bottles of Red Wine and 1 bottle of White wine which were around 80 Euros for the red and 50 Euros for the white. All were decent wine. The setting is definitely romantic with a quite cosy atmosphere, and not a rowdy place and surrounding area nice and quiet compared to the rest of Milan. So a good place for a respite from all the bustle around the Duomo

I recently dined at Al Mercante and had an outstanding experience. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented. The service was equally impressive—attentive, professional, and friendly. The ambience added to the charm, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality of the food and service makes it worth it. Highly recommended for those looking for a memorable dining experience in Milan.

Make sure you pay attention to whether you actually get a decent measure of a glass of wine as a dribble on top of wine already in your glass is not really €8! Seems pity to mention this as otherwise classy evening.

Lovely setting, close to the Duomo but in a quiet square. It was nice sitting outside on a balmy night. We had the Milanese veal cutler and it was delicious.

I found this restaurant with recommendation on The Fork. I am vegetarian and made special request in my reservation. There was a language barrier and not great options for vegetarian food. The staff was accommodating- they did provide us some vegetarian options but main dishes were not up to the mark. We did like the appetizer, dessert and the wine that waiter recommended. If you are looking for vegetarian specific options I’d consider other places.

Food quality and presentation is excellent. Efficient service. We went for dinner at 8pm and not many diners at that time. Filled up and more lively around 10pm on a Friday.
