A pretty neat and decent restaurant. However, they are misleading people by charging higher prices than the prices displayed on the menu outside. For example, the service charge was displayed as 2,50,- but eventually appeared to be 3,-. Not a bit difference, but not very decent either. So, perhaps not such a decent place after all.

I have been here a couple of times with friends and have tried most dishes in the menu. We were never disappointed and the friends that I brought to this place always love it. Their fish dishes were not the best but I would recommend their seafood spaghetti and Convivium pizza. I think this restaurant deserves more credit than the... More

What was supposed to be a great night out with friends from Milan ended in disaster when my friend was served a risotto with broken glass pieces. The manager did not care about it, even with my friend bleeding, having cut his tongue, his mouth/lip. Never had a situation where management and staff care so less about the incident. Certainly...

Beef, Fish, Wine (all capitalized on purpose) are the string points of this restaurant which also offers great service (fast and competent). Spotlessly clean. Top marks for the location. Just a few steps to be wary of when walking towards the back tables. The kitchen is in full view and a pleasure to see. Go there to celebrate or for... More

Searching for food after having done a 10k at Hotel Straf's running belt in the evenening, in an otherwise boring Milan city centre (the day after New Year) with many restaurants closed, Convivium appeared to be still open at 11 pm. And not just that, they still served excellent pizzas and salads in a nice, almost chic, atmosphere while playing... More

Had a meal here for friend's 40th birthday. Food was delicious. Service was great and they even dimmed lights and sang Happy Birthday with a cake we had brought with us. Would recommend!

This restaurant was located within walking distance of our hotel in Milan and was recommended by the concierge. It was wonderful! We began with what we thought were "starters", but my husband's "fish soup" turned out to be a meal in itself! He was presented with a bowl filled with clams, mussels, shrimp and scallops that were beyond compare! I... More

Cold January late lunch was perfection from atmosphere to service to food. The daily specials were beautifully executed and perfectly served. Most memorable was the perfect rendition of seasonal shaved fresh artichoke and parmesan salad ever and the Maltagliati con Gamberetti e zucca fiore was exquisite. Service was impeccable and everyone was patiently kind with our struggling Italian. Definitely a... More
