Our family had the best time at Ristorante Milano. Everything was amazing. The service, the food and cozy ambiance. We ordered so many dishes and they were all delicious. The lasagne, ravioli, seafood pasta, and many more! It was all incredible. We are definitely coming back.

My favorite Italian restaurant in SF. My wife just got back from Italy and said that this place is as good as any place she went to over there. And the owner and staff are very nice people.

Absolutely love this gem of a restaurant. Old school service, timeless delicious Italian food. Great wines and desserts. Amatriciana, Lasagna and Tonnarelli are our faves. For starters love the calamari or braesola.
