Cafe Di Milano — Restaurant in Dwarka

Amidst the busy city of Dwarka, we found a beautiful cafe where you can find quality food, good gorgeous indoor as well as outdoor seating, and the right playlist playing to set your mood right for the beginning of an extremely relaxing experience. Cafe di Milano is a relatively new cafe which has just the right ingredients to uplift your mood as discussed above. It is located a few steps away, opposite to the soul city mall in Dwarka, which makes the location quite attractive for a large crowd who visit the mall for shopping and since the mall lacks an extensive food court of its own, cafe di Milano is a saviour for all the hungry shoppers. The cafe is constructed within a confined small space, but the owners have utilised the space well by constructing a rooftop seating as well which most of the cafes lack here in Dwarka.

The beverage station is placed outside and in open. Coffees, teas and shakes which we order are brewed, churned and stirred right in front of us leaving no scope for unhygienic ways of preparation plus the coffees being brewed outdoors fill the space with a wonderful cafe like aroma, one where you can casually sit and chill with the music and ambience perfected with natural add-ons like plants and bushes around the seating area. The service is quick and the ones who serve are vigilant enough to take care of the customer’s needs and requirements.

This place is perfect for almost everyone, no age restriction or any kind of restriction, especially good for college students to hang out or couples to enjoy a date with natural and fancy ambience. Occasions for which the place is most suitable include, meetings, casual lunch, hi-tea, dinner, dates etc.

It is true that the prices are slightly high but the quality of food, ambience and music tends to compensate for the price you pay for the food here.

We ordered :

Belgian chocolate shake

Butter chicken pizza

Crumb fried chicken

To be honest, the Belgian chocolate shake served here is the best shake we have tasted so far, even better than milkshakes served at places which are dedicated to making only shakes like Keventers, Milkshake and co. etc. The shake consisted of a medium consistency, not too thick or too thin, one which doesn’t grease around your throat making you feel thirsty or too bland and watery to make you feel like you wasted your money. The consistency was made right by the crushed Belgian chocolate which they added to milk which tasted like full cream milk. The sugar for just right to make it taste perfect, all in all, the milkshake was nice and frothy yet Luscious and chocolaty leaving you with wanting more of it.

Butter chicken pizza, all good things put together to make a great delight. One can tell that the crust of the pizza was freshly made and not store-bought but the size of the pizza is slightly disappointing, it was just an 8-inch pizza, taking into account the servings of pizzas at other similar cafes, where the size is usually not less than 11inch. They used makhani gravy instead of marinara for butter chicken pizza, which made the pizza moist and gave that much required north Indian touch. Topped with mozzarella and chicken tikka making a heavenly combination for pizza and they executed it to perfection.

The third dish we tried was crumb fried chicken, this was a great appetizer. Coated with bread crumbs, and marinated in yoghurt, fried chicken strip is served by slicing them into 6 to 7 pieces. The fried chicken strips are served with a dip of your choice and with a very small portion of coleslaw salad. The chicken was moist from inside while the deep-fried chicken was crisp from outside.

To sum up, we enjoyed a good experience here at Cafe di Milano.

We went to the cafe to enquire about a bday party for our kids bday. 1stly the owner barely gives you time. Cafe ambience is ok but the food is below average. Even after this, the prices per head for a bday party are exorbitant. We ordered for farm green pizza, kitkat shake, muffin, hot & sour soup, paneer lababdar. Bakery items are poor. Never had a worse kitkat shake. Muffin was tasteless. Paneer lababdar with aloo kulcha was ok. Pizza below average. Never tasted a poor pizza like this before, weird tasting cheese, vegetables not visible. Hot & sour soup was also not good. Overall ddnt like the food at all. Next visit three years later ....we celebrated our neice's birthday in the inside closed area.. had some games & starters, main course, dessert as per the agreed menu. Food was good but service is very slow.. you have to followup for water even. They dont serve on their own. You have to follow up for paneer tikka. Ambience is good. Taste has vastly improved. Service to be improved. Pizza was good. Dal paneer nd tomato soup were nice.. went another time for dinner too. Mocktails are ok. Tried their mock tail mojito not good Thai curry was too sweet and no taste Dal wasn’t good either

22nd dec We went to have dinner. Had hot chocolate which was average. French fries were decent. Chilli garlic noodles were good. Lachha parantha was nice. Butter chapati was ok. Dal makhani was average. Paneer lababdar was nice but too much of gravy and less flavourful. Margarita pizza wasn’t good. Service was slow. They took a lot of time to even serve water. Try paying through Dineout or Paytm for discounts. Prebook a table and get 30% on total bill using Dineout. But this is the offer as of 22nd December. Check before going.

28th march 2024 Took a 55% desk off from Swiggy Dineout. Nice music. Had spinach cheese croquettes, which were ok. Soya malai chaap was good. Lachha parantha, garlic naan, aloo parantha was good. Dal makhani was not good. Too much cream and it had turned sour maybe because of the spoilt cream. We requested without cream. They did get but it was high on salt. Paneer lababdar was 5 small pieces and all gravy masala, which was overdone. Not good. Follow my instagram food blogging @the_food_date....

Ruined our dinner by their arrogant and ignorant staff. What's one expect when going outside to eat something. The ambiance and courteous staff. In Cafe di Milano their ambiance was good but their staff was highly ignorant. We went there on Feb 6th, 2022 there was waiting so we have to wait for 15 mins, even when seats got empty and sanitized, their staff didn't inform us for 10 mins, we went ourselves to seat and occupied it. No one again came to ask for an order, so we call someone for an order, we inquired regarding one Chinese item he had no clue so he said he would back asking about it, again he went and didn't come back for 10 mins, we asked another waiter about it and ordered our items. My wife asked about sanitizer, the waiter said he was bringing that again he was gone never came back with sanitizer. But to our surprise, the food also didnt come for the next half an hour. That's the nail in the coffin for us, we were there for more than an hour no one checks for even water. We stood up and went to the waiter who initially said he would come back asking about our doubt (they have a place where they made coffee and other drinks, all waiters were standing there laughing and gossiping, hardly cares about customers)  and said we are going cancel our order. Again like earlier he hardly cares, so we went to our car and when we were going back we have told their manager (from our car only) about all incidences and humiliation one has to go in your place to get simple stuff like water and sanitizer. He assured me he would take care personally all this stuff but by that time we are already in the car and the water is above our head.

So guys please ignore this place if you planning something, this place can ruin your special day. This is not the first time I visited there, the staff is always like that. It's not they have a huge rush that's why they don't have time to attend us, they all gossiping and laughing but seems purposely ignoring...
