Ponte Rosso — Restaurant in Milan

This restaurant was one of the worst experiences we've ever had. We ordered Ossobuco, as it was regional food, but regional food only had the water in which it was frozen and cooked to serve us. The saffron risotto was inedible. The Mondeghili (meatball) was tasteless, maybe that's why they served us with salt and pepper. In the end, after we had paid, an amount that does not represent the quality of the meal, the waitress asked in a confrontational way, if we had liked it, we replied that we had not and decided, for her sake, that she should call the manager, who - since we ordered, decided to go see the view of the canal - indicated that if we didn't like the meals the "problem was ours because everyone likes to eat there".

After we ordered, one guest asked for the toilet, he told us it’s not for you only customers, we said you just took our order, he then apologised and told us where it was. When serving us he had a bad attitude the whole time which left an unpleasant taste in our mouth.
