Wonderful place! The 8 course set menu is truly something special. Kind waiters who are willingly to change up things, and tweet the dishes to your liking. Starting of with some wonderful snacks and moving further with fish dishes and then the meats.

The dining experience was exquisite and the chef was gracious and competent enough to accommodate our last minute request for vegetarian food. That being said I would rank the food a 4/5 for vegetarian (for our last minute request, keep in mind). Cannot comment on the standard menu items. Great ambiance, superb service and hospitality, not to mention beautiful plating and presentation. The food was unique and interesting. Assuming the menu meets your palette, I’d highly recommend. Do check the menu before going, and call ahead to request for vegetarian if necessary.

The best experience in Milan! My tastebuds are still in awe at the flavors and combinations. New and familiar flavors all mixed together, to result in a journey in far away places without never leaving Milan. The closing dessert is really just amazing, I was speechless. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also fantastic, very private and modern, with views on the skyline.

The food was incredibly interesting and surprisingly tasty and I can't say enough about the phenomenal service. Every employee was so kind, respectful, and attentive. At one point I simply made a comment at my table about how a knife would be helpful, and before I knew it, a waiter brought me one without me even asking. Highly recommend this place if it fits within your budget.

A truly romantic atmosphere for a special evening. The interior design, the small details, the lighting and quality of the service make the perfect background for an original and elaborate cousine. It's expensive but you'll leave satisfied since the experience and the food are totally worth it.

We have visited IYO for NY evening. Overall it was a nice experience. Beautiful modern restaurant, polite stuff. Possibly, for someone with a lot of experience with Japanese cuisine the menu may seem a little bold, and foreigners-oriented which is understandable since we are in Italy. I personally felt a little bored, we havnt really discovered any new flavors. I was expecting a little more from Michelin restaurant. Another a little disappointed point is that my husband got sick with the stomach immediately after the dinner.

Good food, with some dishes above average but others really just average, which is not what you would expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant. There was also very little attention to detail. My partner told them he was going to propose tonight, and they wrote “Happy Anniversary” on the desserts. It’s not our anniversary.

Spent a very nice Sunday evening - I wasn’t too hungry so I only tasted a couple of dishes but I could tell the care and quality they put in. Recommended

Any Michelin restaurant that starts with potato chip amuse bouche will always grab my attention, unfortunately, the rest of the meal did not deliver the expected wow factor. Conceptually, the food should have been fantastic, with interesting flavor combinations and unique pairings. My biggest complaint is temperature and texture. A lot of items came out at room temperature and seemingly undercooked. At first I was wondering, is this just really, really al dente, but my fiance felt the same: the peas were a step beyond raw and the pasta was too hard. I did find myself delighted by some dishes, sea urchin ice cream, although bizzarre, was unique and well executed. Disappointingly, none of the wine pairings redeemed the meal either. I will say the service was fantastic, we were well taken care of from start to finish and wanted for nothing. The ambiance and decor is also stunning. Overall, at this price point, you can do better.

Hospitality was 100%- the servers were great, fine-looking, professional and made me feel welcomed. But from an Asian POV, I’m sorry to say the food isn’t really good. A few feedback: 1) sour rhubarb juice in chawamushi doesn’t cut it. It’s meant to be savoury. 2) anago/unagi would be better if it had a melt in the mouth texture and no rubbery skin. 3) the pigeon was horrid I couldn’t finish this dish too. Perhaps not marinated well so it tasted too gamey. I appreciate the creativity and presentation but taste was a downer. 4) their signature spaghetti dish was wayyy too al dente it almost felt uncooked. They graciously returned it and send me a new dish but I felt bad. The dipping sauce had droplets of some essential oil thing which made it weird. I spotted a Japanese chef at the Omakase counter and really do wonder if he came up with these dishes or offered his advice - if he did, I’m surprised. Bread and airy butter was my favourite! Portions are huge though- you’ll be leaving with a food coma.
