We hosted a birthday party here and had an amazing time. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable and so generous. Our waiter provided excellent recommendations and made the night very special. The atmosphere is perfect for an authentic Italian evening right in the middle of Milan. Would definitely recommend.

Had a great dinner there tonight. The risotto options are terrific, the wine and dessert selections outstanding. The table service from Josh was exceptional, as was the lovely lady at checkout. Will be back next year again..

One of the best places to eat authentic Milanese food. For quality and value, it is hard to beat. Very highly recommended 👌

Fantastic restaurant we went to on Stanley Tucci recommendation. Delicious pasta, including Ravioli and a stocky rabbit dish. Get there for opening as it fills up with locals fast! Children very welcome to

Excellent service! Josh was really attentive and considerate of my wife being pregnant. The service runs so well because the staff are attentive and observant, and there are plenty on, which is good to see. The risotto with bone marrow took us to a new plane and the sbrisolona with dessert wine was delicious. Lovely mondeghili too!

A truly excellent dinner out. We specifically made reservations here due to hearing that they had the best Risotto Milanese con Ossobuca. Getting reservations was a small challenge, but it was well worth it. Being our last big meal in Italy before we left, we wanted to make it a good one. We when we arrived the simple nature of the place greets you with the warmth of a home. We were promptly seated in a smaller dining room just beyond the front room containing the bar and what seemed like a main dining room. The five tables in the area gave enough background chatter that our conversation was our own. Our waiter was superb. Josh was absolutely on it all night, meticulously taking care of us, explaining the menu and keeping the table spotless the entire evening. We were never want for anything and he seemed to arrive just when we needed him. His wine recommendations to start the meal were excellent. We started with polpette made from veal, breaded and fried to a perfect crispness accompanied with a puttanesca. Accompanying that, we enjoyed a small plate of prosciutto, salume, and capicola. I had the Risotto Milanese as a primo with the braised beef as my secondo. My wife had the Roasted capon which was stuffed with plum, apple, greens, and chicken liver. Our friends had the capon and Risotto Milanese con Ossobuca. To finish the meal, Josh suggested a pistaccio and peperoncini gelato. Skeptical, I ordered one and asked for four small spoons. Wow, what a great, and unique, flavor combination. The serving that we ordered did not last long. A great meal finished off with a caffe and a local amaro put us in the right gastronomic spot for a nice walk back to our apartment. Josh made the meal an awesome experience, and it would have only been a great meal without him. If you are in the area, make reservations, enjoy some of the best Osteria food in the area, and request his services for your table.

Excellent place to try authentic Milanese food. Although I'm not a big fan of risotto, this one was just incredible!!! Tortelli with braised beef were fantastic as well as slow cooked veal.

Great space, food and team. Dining room is located downstairs and the entrance isn’t super noticeable or easy to find via GPS. Staff was very welcoming, dishes are reasonably priced and everything tasted great. Speaking with the local ladies dining next to us who got the lunch special they said it was such a deal! I had the porcini pasta with shaved white truffles on top which was quite memorable. Will be back for sure!

We came here as a family on our last night in Milan, and it was an amazing experience. This was the best food we had in the city by far and our server was also really great. We tried a bunch of courses and not one was less than wonderful. Make a reservation because the tables fill up quickly!

Didn’t know the place, booked for an important lunch with family to have a taste of local kitchen and it was great. Food is good and traditional, portions are right and prices are fair. Service is kind and atmosphere calma and quiet. Highly recommended!

This restaurant was featured in Stanley Tucci's Searching for Italy series and I just had to try it for myself. From the moment my family and I stepped foot inside, we were captivated by the warm ambiance and the impeccable service. Our party of 3 were served by Josh and he had great attention to detail. Throughout the evening, Josh guided us effortlessly by suggesting wine pairings that elevated the flavors and small plates that goes well with our main dishes. The attentive service and Josh's knowledge enhanced the overall dining experience, leaving a lasting impression. For starters, we had the beef Milanese meatballs, Milanese Mix, and Slow Food Protection Mix. The cold cits of the slow food mix were amazing and melts in the mouth with every blossful bite. The Milanese mix had impeccable balance of creaminess and subtle yet distinct flavors that left us craving for more. Moving on to the main course, I was presented with a tender and succulent veal steak, which is a signature dish of the region. The veal shank, bathed in a flavorful white wine-based sauce was an absolute delight. The meat fell effortlessly off the bone, and each mouthful was a symphony of robust flavors that showcased the skill and expertise of the chef. My sister had the taglatielle Bergamot sheep ragu which had fresh pasta and flavorful meat whereas my mother had the baccala dish that was equally delish. We would have wanted to stay longer for dessert but we had to finish the night early to catch a show. If you find yourself in Milan, do not miss the opportunity to embark on this gastronomic adventure and explore the timeless treasures of traditional Milanese cuisine at Osteria del Treno.

It's a "Slow Food" restaurant - with everything good that is implied therein. Impeccably sourced local ingredients, local cuisine done brilliantly, and inexpensive to boot (seriously - thats part of the "Slow Food" movement). The staff ("G" used to be around half the time, but has since retired, though the others are just as good!) mans the front of the house brilliantly, seemingly constantly on the move, but still attentive to everyone's needs. The rest of the (small) wait-staff is friendly to a fault. Put your fate in their hands, they'll take care of you We''ve been coming here for *years*, and are still constantly surprised at how *good* the place is - no mean feat!

A restaurant where I like to go both for business lunches and dinners with friends. Plain local Milanese restaurant. Simple at lunch and romantic or intimate at dinner. Strongly suggest it

Sono stato oggi a pranzo, la carbonara è buonissima, cremosa e saporita come dovrebbe sempre essere (ma non è)! La torta della nonna buona e artigianale, come dovrebbe sempre essere! Locale molto bello e servizio rapido e cordiale. Il tutto per un prezzo assolutamente corretto! Assolutamente da provare, anche se doveste andarci apposta perché non siete in zona!

Siamo stati per un pranzo tra amici nella sala liberty, posto abbastanza unico nel suo genere che mi piacerebbe vedere di sera con qualche evento. Il menù offre una discreta scelta di piatti tipici della cucina milanese e siamo stati soddisfatti di tutto quello che abbiamo assaggiato. Porzioni normali e rapporto qualità prezzo in linea con questo tipo di osterie a Milano: antipasti condivisi, un piatto principale a testa, qualche dolce e la spesa è di poco meno di 40€ a testa.

Una osteria storica di Milano che propone una cucina tipica lombarda. Un tempo era una sede del dopolavoro delle Ferrovie dello Stato, adesso riprende ancora qualche piatti tradizionale milanese. I piatti sono presentati bene e abbastanza ben fatti. Buono ed efficiente il servizio. Deludenti i dessert, presentati in modo scarno.

Bellisima serata: abbiamo assaggiato ricette per noi nuove preparate con cura. Tutto molto buono. I vini erano perfettamente abbinati ai piatti. Lo consigliamo.

Mi dispiace non averci realmente mangiato. Sono stata invitata in questo locale (bellissimo!!) per un aperitivo e mi è dispiaciuto molto non poter mangiare i loro piatti se non una degustazione di diversi antipasti. Tutto infinitamente sublime : abbiamo preso 6 cose diverse da dividerci ed erano tutte buone e ben presentate. Vedevamo passare meravigliosi primi e risotti: peccato che dovevo correre dall’altra parte della città poco dopo e mi son dovuta fermare ad una buonissima bottiglia di vino e degli assaggi. Sicuramente ritornerò. Prezzi alti.

1st restaurant experience in Milan, and Italy for that matter. Loved it! What a great way to experience warm Italian 🇮🇹 hospitality and food. Had dinner with my Italian friend. Enjoyed every moment of dinner. Great service from the waiting staff. Loved it!

A vintage experience without feeling line a theme restaurant. If you would like to have a taste of Milan this is the place to come to. Unfortunately some menu items could be improved but overall it was a nice experience to try proper local cuisine. Portions are very generous so i would suggest skipping a 4 course meal and limiting yourselves to 3 or 2 courses. And btw it IS open on Saturday notwithstanding what google maps says…

A very nice restaurant close to centrale main train station of milan. Centrally located it is quite easy to reach with public transport but not so far away from center. They specialise on Milanese cuisine with risotto ossobuco and several other meat dishes bit also have choices for fish and vegetarians. The service quality of food and taste all very good. Definitely a recommended place to go.

Tasty choices and a good experiences. Plates were full, but felt slightly short of umami. Would definitely recommend as there were more option that we don’t have enough room in the stomach for. Service was accommodating, fast and friendly. We saw more locals inside then tourist, which is a good sign.

It was actually hard to get a reservation at this restaurant online so we called and emailed them to get a table on our last night. Everything we ordered was good so it was a great experience. The wine paired with the food was also excellent. Our only regret was we didnt get to order dessert.

Storica trattoria meneghina, dove poter degustare la gastronomia classica milanese. Ottimo il risotto con ossobuco; antipasto di affettati (anche anatra) e formaggi buono ma un po' misero nelle quantità. Dai loro mondeghili mi aspettavo di più. Buoni i vini. Servizio un po' freddo e prezzi francamente un po' alti per l'offerta. L'ambiente è tipico di una osteria; hanno però una bellissima sala liberty (che ricorda una stazione ferroviaria), peccato fosse occupata da una festa privata.

Ristorante tradizione milanese, che prepara un buon risotto tipico del posto. Infatti, noi abbiamo ordinato sia quello con l'ossobuco che senza, e siamo rimasti tutti contenti. Buoni anche i prezzi che sono nella media, l'unica nota negativa è stata la poca cortesia del proprietario. Vi consiglio di prenotare la sala esterna, soprattutto di sera sarà molto piacevole.

Cibo veramente scadente: mondeghili con un retrogusto acido, una lasagna che affogava nell’olio, casoncelli crudi industriali buttati nel piatto con dadini di speck e mezzemaniche cacio e pepe super salati. Una vera delusione. Peccato perché il locale è molto carino e si mangiava molto bene in passato…magari la sera è diverso ma a pranzo ho mangiato veramente male…

Locale ben tenuto e scenograficamente interessante. Purtroppo il cibo è di qualità media e senza particolare carattere: piatti piatti e poco memorabili. Sembra più pensato per i turisti che per chi cerca sapore e tradizione. Bello da vedere, meno da gustare.

Il locale è conservato con cura e mantiene un suo fascino, ma il cibo è davvero scadente. Il polpettone sembrava appena uscito da una confezione di cibi precotti, insipido e compatto come plastica, con un "sughetto" gelatinoso scarsamente attraente. Il purè aveva un sapore acido che denunciava la sua vecchiezza. Migliori le polpettine di antipasto. Buono il sorbetto ai cachi. Frequentatissimo, tanto da suscitare grandi aspettative ma la delusione è stata grande.

Delusione totale. € 15,50 per una quadrangolo micro di risotto riscaldato male (gratinato malissimo), saranno stati 35gr di riso. Il coperto e una bottiglia di acqua. Mahhhh... Una roba del genere vale €5,00 alla fiera del paese (e sicuramente la fanno meglio). Non ci torno di sicuro.

It wasn't good, very disappointing. They serve premade heated up food. Don't go there just because it was on Stanley Tucci's show: Searching for Italy. They have two different places, once for events, where the show was recorded, in an event, and another one for regular service.

Mediocre food, lukewarm, rude staff who clearly hates tourists. But nothing compares to being sick 1 hour after eating here. Obviously Stanley has a thing or two to learn about good food.

We made a reservation after reading about it in an article related to Stanley Tucci. First the service was rushed and disinterested. The waiter never checked if we needed water or wine refilled. …

Non adatto ai vegetariani, poca scelta nel menu. Servizio affrettato e disorganizzato, pane del giorno prima, prezzi da ristorante con tovaglie di carta. Chiesta minerale portata acqua microfiltrata. Zucchine di Scapece solo di nome, di fatto zucchine lesse con dentro un pezzo di plastica... Pasta al forno solo di nome, erano verdure pasticciate (con dentro un legnetto). Probabilmente la peggiore trattoria degli ultimi 5 anni. Conto salato ovviamente...
