As always (we dine here once a year), the overall experience is so nice. Food is excellent (also for gluten free, like me), service and friendlyness of the staff is lovely. The food looks good and tastes even better. Good choices of wine, with great explanation. The ambiance is lovely, at the moment Christmass decorations are in gold, very refined. Lots of twinkly Christmass lights in the garden. We'll be back next year!

We went with a friend from Milan who didn't know the place. Very nice, small and intimate place with views into the kitchen. The service, Ricardo, was very attentive, explained the food and traditions behind it and entertained us by doing so. Wonderful service - thank you. The food was excellent, very much what one would expect from the region around Piacenza: great charcuterie, the smoked ham was a big hit, agnolotti in brodo at its best, deer on palenta, traditional beans. Just a great evening with fantastic Italian food, lovely service and great company.

About the restaurant

Dal Milanese – Teatro Arcimboldi propone sapori e gusti tipici della tradizione meneghina con un richiamo alla “Milano da bere” degli anni 80.
Qui viene reinventata l’idea di trattoria: un luogo informale con una cucina tradizionale dalle origini casalinghe che incontra una curatissima ambientazione internazionale che contraddistingue tutti i locali firmati Luca Guelfi.
L’Executive chef Emanuele Gasperini propone un menu stagionale utilizzando esclusivamente prodotti di eccellenza lombarda: mondeghili, fiori di zucchina fritti al ripieno di taleggio, riso al salto, risotto alla milanese, vitel tonne’, ossobuco, cotoletta di vitello, galletto al mattone, paste fatte in casa e i salumi e formaggi lombardi.
Qui al teatro, DAL MILANESE e’ anche pizzeria con proposte di pizze ad impasto sottile, leggero e croccante come piace ai milanesi.
Il bar propone gli storici e classici cocktail della Milano da bere degli anni 80.
Aperto tutte le sere dalle ore 19 all’1 di notte, Dal Milanese
