    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.

    We had lunch in this restaurant on a. Saturday, which we were able to reserve the night before. The restaurant is very nicely decorated and is in a fantastic location in Milan, about a block from La Scala and the Duomo square. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, the service is fantastic, very friendly and efficient and the staff seemed to anticipate your needs. The food and wine here is amazing! Absolutely delicious and priced fairly. We look forward to returning to this restaurant and can recommend it heartily.

    I really like this restaurant. It was recommended by a friend a long time ago and I always go there ( as I did at their old address) when I am in Milano. Excellent, easy going and simply a joy.

    The owner and staff made us feel both at home and special. The food was amazing and paired with excellent wine suggestions. I had been concerned that we wouldn't enjoy the inside as much as the al fresco experience, but it was wonderful.

    A wonderful New Year's eve dinner -- excellent service, excellent food. A 19:30 reservation turned into a 4-hour experience, Every detail was perfect; we really enjoyed ourselves. Highly recommended, and we will definitely come again!

    You can eat just as well in no less than a hundred other restaurants in Milan, in most of them at a lower price.

    I was so glad to have found this restaurant with a great ambiance & delicious food. We loved the risotto with shrimp & artichokes! Also the service, soft jazz in the background, and very nice wine list made for a perfect evening. I highly recommend Al Mercante.

    We were in Italy for 8 days, and this was BY FAR the best and most memorable meal we had. The food quality was excellent and surpassed only by the service! The portions were perfect and the wine selections was also extensive to fit all budgets. Highly recommended!!

    Beautifully presented restaurant with quasi fine dining of a high standard. Clearly a haven for the local Milanese so is a great place for the discerning tourist. Dress smartly as this place is elegant. Asparagus and prawn risotto a triumph. Tuna ravioli with ginger cream sauce and a tiny sprinkling of pistachio was delicious. Tiramisu as expected was excellent. Well worth a visit.

    Sirloin steak, veal, lasagna and tiramisu were perfect! Much better than expected. Good quality wine as well. Around 70-80eur pp. I would recommend it.

    We found our experience at this restaurant to be very enjoyable. The staff were friendly and efficient. The food was absolutely outstanding. The 60 days matured steak was the best steak I have ever eaten. Other dishes were of an equally high standard. The wine list was extensive and the wine we eventually chose was a delight. On our next trip to Milan we will not fail to book here.

    Food good but my veal Milanese was a little dry. Server was rushed and wasn’t really helpful. Good setting and would try again. It was a Sunday night and we ate early.

    Good food, a bit overpriced but thats probably because it is in a very touristic area. Nice atmosphere and good service.

    I hv been eating in this restaurant for over 8 years. I rated it 5 ⭐️ in google in the past. It was my favourite restaurant in Milan, but it changed after moving in this new location in 2018, food portion became smaller, taste became more salty, and staff became not as friendly as before.
