"I had a dinner at this place once but I definitely want to return there. The atmosphere is chic but also quite relaxed. I took a seafood menu which was 48€ and included a starter, antipasto and a main course. All plates were delicious and looked awesome! I was surprised to hear that there were only 3cooks working for the whole restaurant as the waiting time was not slow even though the restaurant was full. I am definitely coming back!"

"Excellent in everything The service was much appreciated, no invasion but with explanations of the one chosen. The chef's greeting both at the beginning and at the end is a sign of kindness. High quality food. I ate the best plate of spaghetti with garlic, oil, chilli, anchovies and bottarga. They are exceptional. The dishes are not abundant but enough to leave you more than satisfied. Small place with a few tables (which I prefer compared to large restaurants). This allows for greater attention to the customer. High prices....but quality and service has its cost. We will definitely be back Parking: Garage agreement for €10"

"Le foto del cibo parlano da sole ma aspettatevi di spendere dagli 80€ in sù a persona. Il prezzo comunque lo vale in quanto tutte le portate sono incredibili e curate nei minimi dettagli, nonché il servizio che viene eccellentemente svolto dal personale che ricorda a memoria proprietà organolettiche e storie di centinaia di sake disponibili a menù. L'atmosfera è incredibile e caratteristica e nota di merito anche per bagni pulitissimi e attrezzati per disabili."

"Visited months ago The label of a vegetarian restaurant absolutely does not correspond to what Joia represents in the Italian gastronomic panorama. We are talking about the maximum expression of haute cuisine, overwhelming ideas, bold and unexpected combinations, exceptional raw materials, all served in an exclusive environment suitable for providing customers with a fantastic experience. Chef Leemann showed up in person to take the order and give his suggestions on the sequence of dishes. The service staff has always proven to be very prepared to answer all our questions or curiosities about the dish itself and this knowledge was not only the heritage of the waiter who brought the dish to our table and described it to us, but of all the staff who, even randomly, we stopped to ask for further explanation! The wine list was excellent from which we chose a Barbera d 'Alba by Bartolo Mascarello. But let 's get to the food. As entrees... and calling them entrees is definitely limiting! We were offered 2 wonderful tastings which unfortunately I cannot remember in their composition, but the first was a cream with carrot and rhubarb served in a mini terracotta vase, while the second appeared like a palette of colors where some fantastic raw materials sauces could be combined manually. My lunch then began with the Cantiam la montanara where, under a soft celery foam, there was a composition of green asparagus, spring onion and truffle on chopped borlotti beans. Fantastic dish, sublime with exceptional aromas!. I then continued with The navel of the world , a wonderfully plated dish where two types of rice are used, one as a base made with asparagus and watercress, and in the center a Venere rice cake finished on top with saffron almond cream . Finally I closed the lunch with a selection of 8 cheeses, some of which were truly exceptional, accompanied by jams/honey. Obviously the bill is in line with the proposal and with the experience. I must say that it was truly a pleasure and an honor."

"(March 2024) the freshest fish can be found in Milan! how many times have I heard this phrase and how many times I think about it when I look for a fish restaurant in Milan. here, Al Porto respects this saying: fish, crustaceans and molluscs are always very fresh. the preparations are classic and the taste is pleasantly familiar. cuttlefish skewer, scallops au gratin, spaghetti with clams, sea bass with rosemary, mixed fried fish (too bad it's not fish but only prawns and calamari) impeccable. a plus: the Catalan lobster and the trio of risottos. wine list adequate for the environment, difficult to find new things."
