Trattoria Da Pino — Restaurant in Milan

Hello fellow travelers to Milan. Are you looking for real Italian food? A place where the locals go? You owe it to yourself to come here. Here you will not find any Americanized food. The quality will not disappoint. Be warned as others have reviewed and stated this placed packs out, especially around 12:30. Warnings to Americans who have a limited pallet and do not know what real food is because all they have eaten in their life happens to come out of a frozen food section in a supermarket in the United States, should avoid this place?

Went here because of the google reviews so thank you guys for helping me discover this place. Definitely a place you should check out if you want a nice and not too expensive lunch in Milan.

(The staff told me that they change the menu quite often so what I posted here might not...

This was the most disappointing dining experience we had in Italy. If this was served in metal bowls it would be like eating free food for the homeless, I swear. My wife and I ordered pasta and salads, and both were disastrous. My pasta was unappetizing, with cheese sprinkled on top purely for decoration. My wife's salmon pasta resembled dry canned fish tossed over noodles. The "salads" were even worse. My tomato salad consisted of a single tasteless and plastic-like tomato, and my wife's green salad was nothing more than cheap, pre-packaged cabbage. This meal felt like a complete disregard for customers and the reputation of Italian cuisine. If the restaurant cannot deliver even basic quality, it would be better to close rather than ruin the image of Italian food. The service was fast, but again, that completely affects the...
