Very very slow. We didn’t receive the plates at the same moment. Plates were small and cold and very expensive

Saw the 2 course meal at Bar Milano and decided to try it. Tried the Ricotta, Carne Cruda, Risotto and Tagliolini Pasta with shrimp. We both enjoyed our lunch and the service was excellent.

Our server David was the best as were his associates An incredible unforgettable tagliolini with fresh truffle was to die for! Topped off with a delicious Ferrari Prosecco! Love love love Cafe Milano!

This restaurant is in a food market. There is a couple of restaurants In the Market. The tables were very close together and felt a little awkward sitting so close to people while trying to have a nice quiet dinner with my wife. If you want a peace and quiet setting, this is not the place. The food was very good but the portion size was small for the price. I had the ravioli and would recommend it.

Food was just okay. I was told that they specialize as a steak house so I ordered the Filet and was very disappointed. I had to send it back because the center was purple and I asked for medium. It had no flavor and was returned overdone. Although the servers were friendly they were extremely inattentive and we often felt invisible. Overall the whole experience was frustrating and disappointing.

A sliver of Italy in a quaint little restaurant. Wonderful service & they explained all the dishes to a tee. Food was out of this world! There is nothing like fresh pasta. Desserts were amazing too. An added extra is the ability to walk through Eataly & see all the amazing foods. Definitely try it!

Third time here and each time the food has been wonderful ! The servers are friendly, attentive, and informative. Could not ask for a better experience. I have a number of food allergies and they have taken great care to ensure my meals are safe and delicious. Will be back soon!

I recently dined at Bar Milano and wanted to provide feedback on my experience, particularly concerning the service at the bar area where I observed some issues.
While my waiter was excellent, I noticed some problems with the service coordination handled by Jeff, who I assume is the head chef or responsible for order management. Jeff mix-up with an order, with one being given to a guest who arrived much later. What was more concerning was Jeff’s behavior toward the cooks. Despite the mix-up being his responsibility, he addressed the situation in a very rude and condescending manner. This included speaking to the cooks in a dismissive and disrespectful tone blaming them publicly for an error that was clearly his own. He failed to acknowledge his mistake and instead insisted on giving orders in a demanding manner, creating a tense and uncomfortable atmosphere. Jeff’s conduct included interrupting the cooks, speaking to them in a patronizing tone, and making belittling remarks in front of guests. This not only impacted the team’s morale but also disrupted the dining experience.
The food, as always, was delicious, and I appreciate the hard work of the kitchen staff. However, it’s clear that Jeff’s approach to managing the team needs improvement. Effective communication and respect are crucial in such a busy environment. A more constructive approach from Jeff could involve acknowledging his mistake and communicating with the team in a respectful manner.
For instance, Jeff could have simply said, “I mix-up an order, and I need a shrimp pasta for table X. I have given the order to the wrong guest, and they are complaining about the wait.” This kind of approach would not only address the issue more diplomatically but also maintain a positive working environment for everyone involved.

Very busy atmosphere due to the busy nature of the Eataly spot, but it made for a lively dinner.

We opted for the special lunch menu which was well worth the price. The entrees and mains offered all looked (and were indeed) good!

From the lunch menu, there were definitely enough vegetarian options, though I'm not 100% sure about vegan options.

Vegetarian options: We went for the time-limited lunch menu, of which two of the four (or five) entrees were vegetarian, and maybe three of the five (or six) mains were.

I'm the biggest fan of Eataly, every one of them from the freshness of the food to the friendliness of the staff. However, last night the chicken Milanese was over fried. Tagliatelle limone lacked flavor and dried up very quickly. First time...I'll still be back though despite this. Seemed to be just an off night.

Eataly is a great place and this restaurant has a great atmosphere. Food was good but not on par with the prices. By the way they charge you $4 for the bread without asking which is not impressive!!

Shrimp pasta was lacking shrimp. It was also overcooked and had a big blob of dough in the middle. The tomato spaghetti was, on the other hand, almost raw. The beef tortellini were not filling. Overall pretty disappointing experience for what we paid. Won’t come back

The food was incredible! The Monster Veal Milanese was amazing and the tagliatelle with veal ragu was perfectly alright dente and delicious! My wife and I also have a severe allergy and lactose intolerance to butter and the chef made the tagliatelle with top extra virgin olive oil and it was so yummy! Additionally our service was impeccable!
