Monopoli - Margarita pizza y vino! - Pizza Near Me - Milan, Michigan

WHAT A FABULOUS RESTAURANT !!!!!!!!! We were looking for something not too far from our hotel so I pulled up nearby restaurants in YELP and when I came across MONOPOLI and read all the beautiful reviews this was it!!!!!!! We had one of the most beautiful dining experiences EVER !!!!! I read all the nice comments about the server Earthy and so when we walked in we asked if Earthy was there and sure enough there she was and from that point on she whisked us away on a culinary adventure we were never to forget. I have to say , Earthy is one of the sweetest person I have ever met !!! She is such a special Lady and if you ever have the opportunity to be showered with her kindness and culinary wisdom you will be one lucky and VERY HAPPY person. We started off our meal with one of Angelo's fabulously made pizzas with Parma and topped off with Arugula. We ordered one of the specials of the day which was so delicious we couldn't believe how lucky we were to experience it, pappardelle with white sauce, veal and zucchini - had a side of squash blossoms !!! YUM !!! Next course was Sea Bass cooked in wood oven - oh so very delicious!! Then Earthy brought us some calamari after we told her how much we loved it !!! After that we were so stuffed but then she also brought homemade chips with fresh rosemary - all that was topped off with a special made sorbet with currant liqueur !!! WOW!!!!! EVERYTHING ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT !!!!! Earthy!!! We miss you and everyone else in the restaurant and we will be back soon !!!!! read more

Once again my fellow yelping companions didn't steer me wrong. As my first stop for some Italian food, this place was delicious. As I was worried about my lack of Italian abilities but with the help of google translate & pointing I was ready. However the lady who sat us spoke some English & the menu was in both English & Italian, whoop whoop WINNING. The pizza (thin crust) was great & fresh. As you walk into this establishment, there's a gentleman kneading the bread & behind him was a wood fire oven, Perfecto!! So if you're in the area, I highly recommend this place. read more

Out of the three nights spent in Milan we ate here twice. It is an unassuming restaurant, nicely decorated with the most amazing food! So lucky to have stumbled upon it. Wine, main courses and dessert were all amazing. If you're in town, give them a try. read more

Fantastic service! When we first arrived in Milan we were very unclear about where to eat. We found this place with high reviews and decided to try it out. The raviolis were amazing! And the service was great too! Our waitress was a character, she knew so much about the menu and explained things to us if we didn't understand the Italian. Will definitely be returning next time I am in Milan. read more

Monopoli - Tortellini with butter and sage - Pizza Near Me - Milan, Michigan

Both on google and Yelp it said the place was open. We walked about 10 minutes from our hotel and were welcomed by a completely shut down place. All the windows were closed by blinds, there was no light whatsoever. We nearly walked past it. We obviously cant judge the food because we never got to taste it but organization wise this is horrible. Please mark that a place is closed! read more

My wife and I still dream about Monopoli's pizza and look for excuses to visit Milan so we can taste it again. The pizzas come in a perfect thin crispy crust under a layer of high quality ingredients. My favorite is four cheese (quattro formaggi), which is an explosion of flavor especially with the blue cheese. The waitress recommended the mushroom and olive pizza to my wife, which seemed to be a match made in heaven. The affogato dessert was also delicious. During our trip to Italy, we visited Milan twice and made sure we went back a second time for this treat. read more

This was an all around great experience! The food was wonderful and it is a family owned and operated restaurant. Sara spoke good English so it was easy to order. This was our favorite place to eat in Milan. read more

Was in Milan for a conference and our Hotel was away from the centre and in the Fiera neighborhood. Found a quiet street with several restaurants and ended up here after checking Yelp. What a find! Their strength is in their pizza so we had try a Margherita Pizza. It was a typical Naples pizza in Milan and was fantastic. We also had their "beef with mushrooms" and it was a beautiful piece large dish made in the wood-fired ovens. Didn't have room for dessert but those looks tempting. So good I brought my colleagues there the next day. Prices were extremely reasonable. read more

Wonderful service and delicious food! One of our favourite places in Italy so far. We started with a wonderful appetizer of eggplant rolls stuffed with cheese. We both had pasta (one seafood special of the day and one carbonara). Finished with tiramisu. All that and 1/2 litre of wine for 44 euro! Amazing prices (especially for Milan) read more

Got the tuna salad but wish I had gotten pizza. The bread is the best bread I have ever had, but the salad was too salty. The staff was a sweet and spoke good English. Beautiful dessert options too! read more

WOW!! We came here for lunch and had the Pizza it was very good. But we ended up back here for dinner because the place we planned to go to was closed -I'm glad they were. Between the 4 of us we tried various dishes. They were all amazing. The waitress (Earthy) was great and helped us choose our selections. The entire staff was delightful and we even had an opportunity to meet the owner who was cleaning tables near the end of the evening. Overall a great experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for.great food and a local experience. read more

Great place! The food and service were outstanding. We ordered the pizza, pasta and calamari. Delicious

Fantastic pizza. The best in Milan. Very friendly staff that makes You feel Like home.

They had THE BEST pizza (and ravioli) we had during out entire trip to Italy (Milan, Venice, Rome, Florence, and Positano). It was, unfortunately, the first restaurant we went to in Italy...I saw unfortunately b.c. no other restaurant was able to live up to the taste, quality, and service. Very reasonably priced, as well. DEFINITELY worth going out of your way for. read more

The food was good. Ate mostly off the daily menu and was not let down. The service, on the other hand, was phenomenal. Very friendly to English speaking customers and really just a positive attitude all around. Definitely recommend this place to anyone nearby. read more

Monopoli - Pizza Near Me - Milan, Michigan

We came here tonight at the time the restaurant opened. We did not have a reservation. The person running the restaurant told us we had to eat within one hour, and then we had to leave. Not the beginning of a good night. Long story short, we consumed two pizzas and a bottle wine in less than 45 minutes. My wife was pissed.The last review was written one year ago, and all I will tell you is, "good luck". It is now the time when the restaurant should've been filled up. It is not even half filled. I have never written a bad review for any restaurant, until now. read more

Amazing service as well as food. Earthy our waitress was very helpful. We spilt a pasta and pizza. The pasta was very fresh and the pizza was heavenly. read more

This restaurant was recommended to us by a co-worker. We had a tonno (tuna) pizza and the daily special, tagliatelle con carciofi e salsicce. The food was delicious... However, if you're looking for a nice, calming, friendly atmosphere... This is not your place. Staff is unwelcoming and unresponsive to every day expressions of good manners, such as "thank you" and "you're welcome", "excuse me" etc. You may as well thank the wall.....the response would be identical. It just felt stuffy and presumptuous. Be read more

We had high expectations due to the good number of Yelp reviews. What a disappointment. To start off, we ordered two glasses of red wine which tasted terrible. Tasted as though the bottles were left open for days. We were surprised as all of the other places we ordered glasses of wine from were great. After ordering our dinner, we waited, waited and waited. We noticed a group of people who came in 15 minutes after we did were being served before we were. Finally after being tired of waiting and not seeing our waitress for 20 minutes my wife got up and went to ask where our food was. Our waitress forgot about the food. The food itself was ok nothing spectacular. For the high reviews we were expecting better as there are many other restaurants in Milan that are amazing with less reviews. This place was a big let down. read more

Una pizza buonissima, soprattutto quando la prepara quello che chiamano "il nonno", il quale dà dei colpetti sul bordo che lo fanno diventare ancora più croccante read more

Good food, good service, nice atmosphere. Definitely recommend. The server even tried to help us with our Italian!

it's a great, small and nice restaurant. The service was great and the meal was delicious and home made. I had carpaccio first and penne with tomato and basil as main course. The dessert was a tasty, small apple pie. We paid 44 Euro for two persons and had a great meal with a nice and funny waitress. We will come back soon. read more

Wanted to Go there but this Restaurant does not longer exist!!! Different Restaurant in there now. Looks quite fancy and expensive.

I have a severe food allergy and they took great care of me. They were accommodating and went out of their way to make sure I had a great experience. Thanks! read more

The restaurant was very attractive and the staff was most helpful with making amazing dinner selections! Our waitress, Earthy, was simply the best I've ever had!!! She just knew what we would want and explained every item she brought to us. The food was amazing, from the taste to the preparation and appearance. I cannot rave enough about this place, so quit reading and go try for yourself, you'll love it! read more

damn good pizza!! worth making a reservation, locals seem to really like this place too. my advice this the pizza di buffala

Two weeks in Italy and this was our favorite place to eat. Great food, friendly staff, and a wonderful neighborhood atmosphere.

After being in Milan for several days and determined to find that wonderful thin crust pizza like we enjoyed several years ago in Naples, using Yelp we decided on Monopoli. Our first try was on a saturday night about 9:30 and we were told it was at least a one hour wait. To me this is not a bad thing, it means they are doing something right, however we were hungry and decided to try another place on the same street which turned out quite nice actually. A couple nights later on Monday we again showed up after checking the website to make sure they were open and sure enough when we arrived things were locked up tight!, turned out it was some catholic holiday I guess. Finally the next night we walked in about 8:30 and were seated right away. Our waitress (Earthi) spoke perfect english and was very friendly. When we started to order she said no no, you need to try this instead. Normally I dont like this and want to make my own choices but this was just a salad so we went along with her and were very pleased. We ended up with a fresh artichoke and parmesan salad and the other was made from a vegetable we had never heard of and I cannot remember the exact name now. It was a winter vegetable that required elaborate preperation as explained by Earthi. It was sliced thin and came with a anchovi dressing that was wonderful. we also had fried sweet peppers as an appetizer and I mixed this with the salad and with a squeeze of lemon and salt and pepper it was really good. She brought out the raw vegetable to show us and it looked like a cross between a cabbage and bok choy. Finally we had two pizza's (one would have been enough) and they lived up to the billing, excellent thin crust and sauce was beautiful, perfect toppings. we met the owner Franco and learned that this family run restaurant is over 40 years old and all the employees are part of the extended family. Overall a really satisfying dining experience. With plenty of beer and wine the bill was under 50 euros. read more
