Eating Out in Milan, Italy |

Going to a restaurant is an occasion for Italians. Restaurants are always packed and getting a table can be tricky, but this is Italy, after all, so you won’t find yourself looking for a table for too long in Milan.
Pizza and pasta, unsurprisingly, are the best meals served in restaurants. They are the country’s native dishes and, even though some tend to think that they could make their own pasta just as well, you haven’t tasted pasta or pizza properly until you have tasted it in Italy. With so many different cultures and nationalities sauntering in and out of the city, you can be rest assured that restaurants dishing out Italy’s national cuisine are of the highest quality.
Large fashion and commercial industries in Milan mean that those visiting don’t always want to eat Italian food. International restaurants are generally of a higher quality and standard here than any other Italian city. Eating Chinese, Thai or any other international cuisine around Italy can sometimes be a bit risky. If you are sick of polishing off pasta and feel somewhat apprehensive about going to an Indian in Milan, don’t worry. Non-Italian restaurants here are the best in the country.
For the widest choice of restaurants venture towards the Navigli or Garibaldi areas of the city. There are loads of restaurants and bars here meaning you can go straight from the restaurant to the pub. Very convenient. The side streets along Corso Buenos Aires also have many restaurants to choose from.
Your overall bill at the end of the night can sometimes be pricy. Pizza and pasta dishes range from €5-€10. Meat can be more expensive. Drinking wine can hike up restaurant bills so steer clear if you are on a tight budget. If drinking water will suffice make sure to ask for tap water (aqua al roubinetto). Also, don’t forget to check your bill for service charges. Restaurants sometimes put a €0.50c to €4 service charge per person on the bill. If they do, it isn't necessary to tip, making the night that little bit more reasonable.
