Aimo e Nadia
This Michelin-starred restaurant has been owned by Nadia and Aimo Moroni since 1962. The food is outstanding (both owners cook), the atmosphere elegant but not showy. A 15-minute cab ride from the city centre—it’s worth the trip for one of our favourite Milan restaurants.
Da Claudio

Cracco-Peck
The Michelin two-starred Cracco-Peck combines an elegant setting with remarkable cuisine and near-perfect service.
Trattoria del Carmine
