I went there several times a week for months during my semester abroad. It's close to the university and it was always great. Very tasty brioches, great coffee, reasonable prices. The space in front of the café is great for sitting outside and enjoying a coffee in the morning or a Spritz in the evening. I've never had lunch there, but it always looked great and I've heard from friends that it's very tasty.

First place I ate when I landed in Milan and I must say it will not be the last time I eat here either. We walked in a little close to closing time, something I know isn't very appreciated by those in the restaurant industry. However we were greeted warmly and served promptly. I got the pappardelle and my girlfriend got the gnocchi. The food was outstanding! Some of the best we've ever had. To top it all off it was extremely affordable, and cheap by the standards that were set forth by the amazing flavors. We will certainly be returning and I encourage anyone considering a visit here to do so!

Great place for University students, my favorite dish is "Tris di Primi" where you get 3 different types of Pasta for only 4,50 €. The staff is amazingly friendly and the place is cozy and nice especially for those who like rock n roll. I highly recommend it.

Nice place to dine in during meal brakes, affordable, free water, and have a lots of tables to sit!

Andrea

A very cheap place, that grants you a good kitchen and variety of plates. I reccomend it if you find yourself in the zone. The only problem is that is near Politecnico, and during meal time it's full of students.
