pasta was bland, we were not offered bread and oil like other table
Bad service, really bad service. The waiters were rude
Wonderful place to be outside and enjoy a lovely meal w friends !
Amazing food, service and ambience!
Ordered the Osso buco and the meat was tough, generally it’s supposed fall right off the bone .
My wife’s pasta with meat sauce was bland.
However my sons lamb chops were amazing.
Not sure if it’s becuse they were extremely busy or May of just had a bad day.
Cafe Milano is an outstanding dining experience each and every time I have the pleasure of going there. The service and food and customer care are simply wonderful!
Food was excellent!! Try the octopus.
Outstanding service. Great menu. Delicious food.
Lovely ambiance, attentive service, homemade pasta. We had fish stew and lobster with linguine, with a delicious bottle of wine. A little expensive, but well worth it. Would definitely recommend Cafe Milano
Best wait staff ever! Menu broad and deep. I ordered veal cutlet - huge and delicious. But with appetizer and salad before, almost too much food. I will be back.
Never disappoints! Service, Food, vibe, always a 10!
Silvia was great. Very accommodating and Customer service oriented.
The service and food was very good and they provided us with a very nice table outside and under cover
Always welcoming and nice. Excellent food and very good service.
I went from thinking it was an over rated place for the power people trying to be seen to loving it in just one visit. Was this my 17th, 25th visit? It's worth it. And everyone was wonderful was evening. The food was wonderful.
Good food, but lobster ravioli was a little thick and al dente. When I asked the waiter for Parmesan, he commented “we don’t recommend Parmesan with seafood, but I’ll bring it.” I also had pasta which is why I wanted it. Quite honestly, it’s not the waiter’s business why I wanted it or not. I didn’t appreciate his remark.
Such a disappointment! No flavor in anything we ordered including the burrata, the pastas and the lamb chops. We were all totally disappointed and surprised.
Dinner at Cafe Milano was outstanding as usual - the food was great, the service amazing and the overall experience just unbeatable.
Sat outside for lunch. Lovely salad then yummy perfectly tender grilled octopus and an amazingly plentiful and beautiful pizza.
Reservations were made and we were seated about 30 minutes later. Wait staff didn’t tell us the specials or ask us for dessert. We’re not very attentive- saw the food runners and only got more drinks because we asked them, not our waiter. Will probably not return for in person dining, maybe take out since the pasta was so good.
It was our anniversary dinner and the experience was great! We were treated with a card congratulating us. The ambiance was cozy and we were given our time to enjoy our dinner. The server was also great and helpful!
Fantastic as always. I appreciate the attention to detail, amazing pasta, and wonderful service each time I dine.
Friendly and attentive service, well located, food is extremely subpar at this price point (or at any price point).
Perfect service- as always!
Awesome food, and the service was even better.
Below average food
Always great!
Impeccable service, delicious food, sophisticated atmosphere and Maitre’D Extraordinary Laurent does wonders to make you feel like a VIP every visit.
Nice variety in the menu, the service was prompt and courteous, and the food was absolutely terrific for all members in our party. Would highly recommend to others and we plan to dine again there frequently.
Very nice restaurant. Brings back memories of my period in Milan, really well decorated and excellent food.
Service was excellent
Great quality of food and drinks
Definitely worth trying !
Excellent in all respects!
Birthday event. Everything was GREAT!!!
Always fun and yum!
Sat on enclosed porch with heaters around me. Very pretty. Prompt service. Very pleasant. Great food but expensive. I’m not sure that the food is that superior to justify cost. Still, I really enjoyed the experience
Amazing calamari, great pizza and nice chianti. Fun evening.
The restaurant live up to its reputation. The people were friendly and provided great service. We’d go back for sure.
As always, spectacular service top to bottom. Highly recommend the prosciutto appetizer, and ravioli. The Sommelier was top notch, and recommend a fantastic Barolo.
Wonderful evening. Great service. Felt very covid safe. Thank you so much!!!!
always great! My favorite place in town.
