Tano passami l'olio — Restaurant in Milan

Food: 5/5 It was a 6 courses menu, mainly fish. Amazing flavors and great combinations. I really appreciated the foie gras and the squid (in the glass). Very interesting the transparent dumpling. Appreciated the oil tasting. The only thing that I would change is the amount of “air” on top of the ravioli (that by itself were great) because from my personal point of view was really too much and not adding a lot to the dish.

Service: 4/5 Personnel was kind and suggestions on wine was perfect. Smooth.

Environment: 4/5 Warm and cozy. Elegant but not too extravagant.

Price: n/a Since the experience was a gift for Christmas from friends, I can’t personally have an opinion on this. Looking at the menu I would say that is aligned with the standards.

Overall it was a good experience. You don’t leave the place hungry for sure and your mouth will thank you. Even if I don’t agree with the owner’s opinion on Covid, I don’t get why people are reviewing the restaurant based on that. This is not meant to review people’s idea but what they do or offer...

Dining at Tano Passami l’Olio is a masterclass in flavour and fun. It’s been over a decade since I last visited in 2015, and the new venue is a stunning evolution – fresh, vibrant, and just as welcoming.

The foie gras with pineapple and calvero sauce was decadent, and the pavlova with lemon curd and clear gel was a standout, balancing sweetness and zing perfectly. From the skilful and playful apple water ravioli with cod tartare to the rich lamb ragu with candied orange, every course was an adventure. Tano’s passion is palpable, and his personal touch elevates the meal to something truly memorable. Bravo, Tano – can’t...

I wish I could give this restaurant 0 stars. I made a reservation 3 weeks in advance. My reservation was confirmed and I was required to put a card on file for a potential $300 charge if I was a no show. The restaurant cancelled the reservation 4 days ahead of our scheduled dinner. Note that we were scheduled to leave the country the day after our reservation and were making a special trip to Milan just for this experience. The restaurant was not apologetic and didn’t offer a solution. They said they forgot they booked a private event. It left us in a bad spot because it was difficult to make a reservation at another Michelin star restaurant with such short notice. This is not the service you would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. Very...
