They did however have an iPad linked to their website which gave English translations. The salami plate starter was fantastic and quite generous. The house red wine was incredibly drinkable as well. And for only €8 for half a bottle? Such a steal! For my main course, I had the fettuccine ragout and was not disappointed. Across the board, everyone at our table noted how high quality the pasta was. I really want to give them five stars because I loved my experience here. If only the air conditioning was a little bit stronger... I felt a little too warm while I was dining. The red wine which I couldn't resist didn't help either.

We wandered over to this spot as an easy walk from our hotel without a reservation and were lucky to snag table. The back patio is gorgeous and the ambience is incredible. Cozy, green, bright, inviting. Foodwise we did a shared cheese plate, my husband had the osso bucco, and I had the eggplant gnocchi. The cheese plate was SO GOOD. Like each bite was delicious and we literally fought over the last few cheeses left on the plate. My husband demolished his osso bucco and I adored the eggplant gnocchi. So so so tasty and I would absolutely get it again. Service was friendly and drinks were delicious; the desserts definitely did not pale in comparison either. I had the chocolate cake which was delectable. I would put this on your "must try, must eat at" list and definitely swing by if you are in Milan. This will be our go to, never skip spot from here on out and we are absolutely planning on grabbing a reservation next time to make sure we can dine here.

The inside looked like what I picture all Italian restaurants look like in Italy (it's my first one in this country so I'm sure I'll find out if this decor is common). I was seated at the table and ordered a carbonara. It was extremely chewy (it felt like the pasta wasn't cooked). The sauce was a bit too salty. I mean maybe this is how Italian food is supposed to taste when not in America but it seemed kind of plain. They gave a bag full of fresh/garlic bread. I really liked how the pieces were bit sized. It tasted delicious. I am pretty sure the sign outside said 10 euros but I ended up paying 18 euros for my meal. I won't say I got ripped off because I still haven't done my research on if this country has tax or tip but seemed very odd.

Oh My God!! The flavors!! Totally unexpected and nothing short of amazing!! If you've somehow found this review, it means you've gone off the beaten track...Trattoria della Abele is not easy to find.

The place is small... No frills but just outside the restaurant there were tons of stickers showing their accolades for the food they serve so that was a good sign. Another good sign is the long waiting list of folks trying get a table for dinner after 9.45 pm on a Sunday night. The menu isn't long and they had a tasting menu so I opted for that. You can choose either meat or seafood with the tasting menu and you get three courses plus dessert for just €28! The first course I chose was this hake dish marinated in vinegar with carrots and onions. It was ok not amazing... If you're squirmish and don't want to eat small fish with their head on this is not the dish for you lol. The next dish is a cuttlefish and artichoke risotto. This place is known for its risotto and boy it was amazing. Never knew risotto was suppose to be cooked where each grain has a bite and not mushy.the delicate flavour of the cuttlefish and artichoke worked so well and the dish was perfectly seasoned. The dish was creamy and I found myself scraping for the last pieces of risotto on the dish! I want more! Lol. The third dish I got was grilled octopus. The dish seemed like it straight up came from the sea with the long tentacle of the octopus. The octopus was tender and have the taste of the sea... Went really well with the sun dried tomatoes. I was amazed of the beautiful colour and the texture... So tender. If you like seafood this will quench your thirst for it. It also went well with the prosecco I ordered. If you're not into seafood, stir clear from this because it is straight up a seafood type of dish... and it'll taste like meat marinated in sea water. For dessert since it was my first night back in Italy I hard to give homage to the tiramisu. The tiramisu was light and fluffy... Not too sweet... Not too much coffee flavour, perfectly balanced. As much as I enjoyed it, being the fourth dish ... I was stuffed! It's a good reminder for me when I make tiramisu that it shouldn't be too sweet and delicate and flavoured lightly by coffee. The staff were really nice and attended me well, they are pretty on point and have a great system working. I'd recommend making reservations if you can cause this place get busy! Overall the experience was good and the wait was worth it for this restaurant. Good value for the money and gave me a good experience on how it is like eating like a local in Milan.

From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. They took the time to guide us through the menu, explain the dishes, and make thoughtful suggestions, which made the whole experience feel very personal and relaxed. We started with fried tripe, which honestly surprised me. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was delicious. Even though it was fried, it wasn't greasy at all-- crispy, flavorful, and incredibly tasty. A great example of how Trippa takes an ingredient that might intimidate some people and makes it genuinely crave-worthy. The seasonal salad was a beautiful contrast: fresh leaves with berries, light, bright and refreshing. We also had an eggplant dish, and as someone who isn't usually an eggplant fan, I have to admit this one won me over. It was flavorful, beautifully balanced, and showed that vegetables can be just as interesting as the more indulgent dishes. But the tagliatelle pasta was my absolute favorite. Out of this world, melted in my mouth. It was the kind of dish where I immediately regretted having to share haha... I could have easily kept that entire plate to myself. Simple, incredibly well executed, and probably the dish I would order again without hesitation. The desserts were good, but for me they didn't reach the same level as the savory dishes. The meal really shines in the food leading up to that point. I really enjoyed the entire experience. There is something very appealing about Trippa's philosophy: no unnecessary frills, just excellent ingredients, thoughtful cooking, and a modern interpretation of Italian trattoria food. I completely understand the hype now. Trippa deserves the praise-- and for me, it was one of those meals in Milan where the food, service, and atmosphere all came together beautifully.
