    Found this hidden gem from other Yelp reviews (thank you)! Yelp link to mapping/directions was a bit off, so we mapped from another map and found it! As described, we knocked to get in and we were very lucky to get a table for our family of 4. Chef M, had to turn others away as the evening went on. He provided recommendations and was very entertaining, even sang a little karaoke! The food was so delicious! And even our teenage boys loved everything! Cannot say enough about this place! So happy to have stumbled on it! Highlight of the trip for sure!

    Spaghetti with shrimp in pomodoro sauce! Chefs kiss!

    The entire experience from the front door knocker to the surprise after dinner was OUTSTANDING!! Excellent food, service and smile! Most memorable dining experience of all time!

    The best tiramisu we have ever eaten. The cream filling was to die for.

    Chef Maurizio prepared for us the best dinner in the three countries we visited - Italy, Switzerland and Germany. It was truly a dining experience - not to be missed. Reservations are highly recommended. It's within walking distance of the Duomo di Milano. Just as much as the Duomo is a must visit in Milan, so is this quaint restaurant. When you arrive, you will need to knock at the door. It's a tiny place with only seating for 20 in the entire place. Chef Maurizio sat at our table and shared pictures on his phone of all of the dishes. He made a few recommendations and they were much appreciated. The dishes are served family style - to be shared. Everything he served was amazing. I would not have changed a thing. The restaurant was founded by his father in 1952. And, he is carrying on an amazing tradition. His father would be proud.

    Incredible dinner from Chef Mauricio! Such a lovely experience and the food was molto bene!

    Single mom and pop operation putting out what, in all likelihood, is the best pasta dishes I have ever had. 4 dishes served family style so we all got to try some - each dish was prepared to perfection..

    11/10! Adorable place, there was only one chef working when we came but even with a language barrier he was absolutely hilarious. The only thing better than his personality was the food. Also don't be daunted by the sign that says to knock- there's no other way for him to know you're there.

    The best pasta and tiramisu we've had in Italy, and we have been eating a lot of pasta in Italy! Fantastic service, fabulous food!

    We've now eaten here 4 times. Twice was nearly 3 years ago (July 2022) and it was so memorable we…read moredecided to go again on our first night back in Milan in May 2026 and then repeated here the following night. The restaurant is on a side street near the busy (with tourists from every corner of the globe) Duomo area. It is easy to find. It has a charming decor (though it is a bit darker and more romantically appointed than other area restaurants, as well as having an underground and almost bordello vibe). It is also larger than it might appear, as there are both ground floor, as well as a lower eating area seemingly for larger groups, as well as used during busier times. We have only eaten on the ground floor level. The menu offers ample variety, but is not what one would term extensive. It tends upscale, though not extremely costly (arguably average to slightly above average fine restaurant prices), but portions are on the smaller side. They have a specialty in dishes augmented and emphasizing the use of truffles, of which we have sampled several times. Over the course of our several meals we've had every pasta and risotto offered with truffle shavings. Of the appetizers we can recommend the meatballs, which are delicate and small, the bacon wrapped shrimp, and the octopus. Their desserts are also not the run of the mill and warrant tastings. All and all, we will always repeat here when in Milan. Frankly, though their Yelp average score is pretty good, we were surprised they do not have a higher Yelp average score.

    WOW! I loved my experience at Valentino Legend! Easy to make a reservation, then immediately seated…read moreupon arrival. The plan feels elegant and has a calming ambiance. It is spotless elegance, superb professional, and friendly service. Huge value as prices as on point for the portion size but above all the flavor and sofistication of entrées and whole menu you get. If I lived here, I'd be here every week!
