Chef J — Restaurant in Milan

Great Dining Experience with Impressive Dishes!

I had a wonderful meal here that totally exceeded my expectations! The food is prepared with great care, and each dish has distinct flavors that left a deep impression.

The grilled red sea bream was incredibly flavorful and well-cooked, while the sweet and sour pork (guobaorou) was a standout—its meat is firm and slightly chewy, which I personally loved (food preferences are subjective, after all!). The dumplings had a chewy wrapper, though the shrimp filling had a slight fishy taste—reminding me of the tough texture issue with Tunisian shrimp I had last month, a minor letdown.

As someone who prefers vegetarian dishes over meat, the "Lotus Pond Moonlight" was my favorite—it’s fresh, crisp, and so delicious that I could finish the whole plate alone! The home-style tofu isn’t the fried type, so I was a bit disappointed at first, but it turned out to be savory and tasty. The chestnut chicken was also excellent: the chicken was perfectly tender, and if the chestnuts were a bit softer, I would’ve eaten the entire portion by myself. The rice was fragrant and fluffy, and I ended up having half a bowl without realizing it.

The portion sizes aren’t overly large, but that’s actually a plus—it lets you order more dishes to try a variety of flavors . The overall atmosphere is pleasant, and it’s a great spot for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, flavorful food. Highly recommend...

I have a particular soft spot for oriental food and wherever I travel, I look for the best dim sum in town. Having lived in London for a long time, I did find some of the best oriental cuisine there, I must say that I am totally in love with Chef J's food! I have been there a few times now and, my God the food is absolutely delightful, every sigle thing I ordered was perfectly cooked and seasoned, absolutely delicious. Honestly top chef, top traditional Chinese food and proper service. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Chef J. IF YOU ARE IN MILAN,...

Pretty solid Asian cuisine with some nice surprises within the menu. I like the the fact that Chef J fills the gap in between super shady and super fancy Asian restaurants and the portions are quiet ok.

I usually go for Chicken Manjuria in combination with fried rice. All together with a coke light I usually spend around 11,00€, quiet affordable.

Even from the inside it looks surprisingly nice, but I usually do takeaway, so I can't tell much about...
