Locanda Perbellini Bistrot Milano

Minimalist and modern decor. Very centrally located in the heart of Milan. The venue definitely feels a little bit cramped. A part of the kitchen is literally located in front of the tables. Personally I found that a bonus because I could watch the chefs. They have unlimited bread so every time you finish the bread basket, they bring a fresh basket of warm bread. The staff was friendly .

I’m really disappointed with Locanda Perbellini Bistrot. Apart from the tartare which was just ok, otherwise the food was inedible. Carbonara is swimming in sauce, very little guanciale, we were not given parmigiano cheese even if we asked for it (although the table next to the Italian customers got a whole bowl). The waiter rolled his eyes and walked away without a word. Veal cheek, although the meat was tender it was diametrically over-salted, inedible. The same for risotto, pure taste of saffron and salt. Eventually the eggplant parmigiana not very distinctive in taste. All dishes are quite small so 2 starters and 1 main course is the minimum for one person. Not only the food is at a very poor level, but service as well, waiters are sad and unhelpful, we did not get the information on off-card dishes and we were not given parmigiano cheese like other guests. Evidently Italian origin customers are better treated and served, while English-speaking tourists not at all. The decor is quite modest, the restaurant is very cramped, guests sit next to each other and there is a piece of paper on the table instead of a tablecloth.

Highly recommend this place. It has absolutely spectacular food, the service was great, and it had a good wine selection (waiter helped us pick a nice bottle). Didn’t catch a photo of the main course but that’s because we were too busy enjoying it! I recommend making a reservation as they are quite busy, but we called just a few hours before and the maitre’d fit us in.

Good service, nice location, good food. Ordered the pigeon and the beef tartar for starters, and the carbonara and ravioli for mains. Good value for money, would go again.

Delicious food and very kind service! The restaurant is very small and the tables are very close to each other. The traffic caused by other customers and waiters was sometimes a bit disturbing because the aisle were so narrow.

Very nice restaurant with a small but varied menu. We both had the specials including octopus, ravioli, and a fillet mignon. Pricing was very fair for the quality of food. I recommend making a reservation. It is a small area so the seating is tight, you may be quite close to another table.

We recently dined at Locanda Perbellini Bistrot Milano and were thoroughly impressed. Our meal ranged from beef tartare and creamy egg starters to saffron risotto and crispy suckling pig belly mains, capped off with delicious apple cake and millefoglie Perbellini for dessert. Each dish offered a new take on traditional flavors, executed brilliantly. Our favorite dishes were the saffron risotto and beef tartare. The cozy ambiance, coupled with the helpful and friendly staff, made our experience even more enjoyable. Surprisingly, the high quality of the food comes at a good price. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy innovative Italian cuisine in a welcoming setting.

Me and my wife found this spot on the Michelin guide. The chef is one of the world’s finest and we wanted to try his dishes. We found a spot with no reservation and we were spoiled with great dishes. I had the risotto and my wife got the vegetarian gnocchi + millefoglie and tiramisu. Totally recommend. The staff was friendly but a bit distracted. Overall experience was great thought.
