We got off the train and headed straight Brunello, a place my neice found online that boasted…read moredelicious Milanese dishes. This being my last day in Italy, I wanted something that would take my breath away. It started with great customer service. It was a bit chilly outside, but we opted to sit out there in lieu of a 20 mins. wait. They had heaters if we needed them. The food was beyond my expectations. For starters we had the stuffed zucchini flowers. I would have preferred them not fried, though still very tasty. We shared the Ossobuco with Saffron Risotto - the lunch portion was large enough to share, but I have to say, after the first bite, I regretted sharing. I could have eaten the whole thing. I had to try the creamed fava beans, so I ordered a side. No regrets whatsoever. My taste buds were doing the tarantella! Everything was fabulous, paired with a glass of Pinot Noir.

Review Title: Good Experience in Brera, But Not Quite What We Expected…read more We were looking for a more local dining experience in the Brera district and found Osteria Brunello highly recommended, including by AI suggestions mentioning that locals frequent this restaurant. We made an 8:00 pm reservation and were welcomed by friendly and attentive staff throughout the evening. As dinner went on, however, we noticed that almost everyone around us was speaking English, and it felt more tourist-oriented than we expected. We were automatically given English menus as well. This is not meant negatively at all, but part of our joy in traveling through Italy has been trying to learn and understand the language ourselves. We honestly would have enjoyed being given Italian menus first and figuring things out on our own. The menu was straightforward with a decent variety of choices, including chef's specials highlighted on the menu. The food was good overall, but nothing particularly memorable compared to many of the wonderful meals we've had throughout Italy. It was enjoyable, just not a standout experience for us personally. That said, Milan is a beautiful city and we've truly enjoyed the food scene here. Others may absolutely love Osteria Brunello, but for us, it's probably not a place we would return to on a future visit.

Well we ended up choosing La Carbonaia and we were not left disappointed, or at least, not completely. The place is very small and characteristic, the grill is front and center with a display of costate fiorentine in front. I like the vibe. They bring a complimentary appetizer, mondeghili, typical Milanese fried meat balls, de-li-cious. I order a grigliata mista and the others order a fiorentina. The grigliata mista is kind of disappointing, especially the serving size. It's a very small plate with just three types of meats, I expected more quantity. It was very good, but not filling at all. The fiorentina was delicious, with some very tender pieces and other not so tender ones. Very rare, they don't even ask how you want it, that's the way you have to have it anyway, all in all a good experience.

Grigliata mista, I expected more meat! Good but disappointing quantity and variety...

Mondeghili, very good!

They only have one bathroom in the whole restaurant so keep that in mind lol. The food itself wasn't super spectacular, we got the truffle ravioli and it was OK. The charcuterie and cheese wasn't anything special either, you can kind of go to the supermarket and just procure the same things. I think the best thing that we ate was probably the chocolate salami as it's this fudgy biscuit with whipped cream on the side. That was something I've never had before and it was unique and worth trying.

I was craving good lasagna, and I think the lasagna here is about as good as it will get in Italy. They don't use as much meat or tomato sauce as Americans do, but this was able to hold me over until I got home.

Other tables were enjoying their time, so that is totally acceptable as well. Overall a great meal.
