Ratanà

We visited Ratanà as a couple between 7:00 and 9:00 pm and had an excellent overall experience. The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, making it easy to enjoy the evening without feeling rushed. The food was well executed, with clean flavors and high-quality ingredients. The dessert, panettone with mascarpone, was outstanding and a perfect way to end the meal. We paired our dinner with a Nebbiolo, which matched the food beautifully. Service was polite, professional, and discreet. A small but very meaningful detail really stood out: when I stepped outside for a cigarette and it was cold, the owner personally came out and turned on the outdoor heaters. That kind of genuine care makes a real difference. A place worth visiting in Milan, not only for the food but also for the hospitality. We will definitely return.

One of the best restaurants in Milano for authentic Milano fare. Recommended by Stanley Tucci! Came for lunch with my daughter while in town for the Olympics. Food was splendid- one of the best meals in Italy!! Do not miss!! Make a reservation in advance!!

Lured here by Stanley Tucci's show, we weren't disappointed. relaxed chic vibe inside, the restaurant is located on the edge of a beautiful park. Zucchini risotto for entree and cotoletta with tuna sauce were stand outs. Very large wine selection plus some cocktails and other drinks. A tasting menu is available but we found a few dishes were sufficient to satisfy!

We had the lunch tasting menu. The meal started out excellent; the liver mousse toast was very tasty, followed by celeriac and cheese fondue. The risotto and bone marrow was a perfect representation of risotto Milanese. Then chicken, which was cooked perfectly but served with 2 different types of potatoes. Pre dessert was yogurt with granola and frozen raspberry - I didn’t understand this. The granola made it feel both heavy and like breakfast. Dessert wasn’t much better with rice pudding and hazelnuts. The hazelnut syrup was the star there. Drinks were good and service unremarkable.

I want to love Milano - truly I do! In my experience it's a wonderful city for fashion, but not so much for food. That all changed when I visited Ratanà in Milan’s financial and business hub, about 30 minutes’ walk north of the centro storico, amidst a sea of modern glass skyscrapers. In an historic building in a beautiful regenerative urban green space, Cesare Battisti and his team are serving some of the most delicious, inspired food I've had anywhere. I had a perfect solo seat at the counter, the ideal place to watch the action and chat to a fellow solo diner. My waiter Ali arranged a menu of four half portions so I could experience as much as possible. Deep-fried zucchini and blossoms with pecorino and a burnt lemon and basil mayo was the perfect start with a glass of Franciacorta. Shout out to THE BEST house-made grissini used to dip up the last of that mayo! Ali insisted I have the traditional risotto Milanese with gremolata and roast juices. So glad I listened, it's a great dish on its own but the pairing with Fratelli Ferrero Nebbiolo is one of the best combos I've ever tasted! The nebbiolo worked pretty well with the vitello tonnato too, a super creamy tuna mayo and salty little capers for added pop! I was ready to quit, but Ali pushed me on to try a local creamed goat cheese with a deconstructed sbrisolona crumble and sauce made from American (foxy) grapes - WOW! Thank goodness for that 30 minute walk back to the hotel! I'll be back next year for the 5-course dego with paired wines. Love the sense of fun in their freshwater fish compilation menu titles too (some take a bit of thought). Thank you Cesare Battisti, Ali and team for helping me find a reason to love Milano!
