Fiori Chiari Plates

Great hosts, and food. Happy I found them on a Sunday. Cute and comfortable décor and great jazz playing in the background. They were quite gracious also when I learned the difference between the word «tagliere» meaning cutting board (in this case, one full of a bountiful assortment of meat for several people as a starter, and the word taglietelli, a type/​shape of pasta. :(Duck ravioli was awesome!

If you’re traveling in Milan and looking for a local place, this is it. It’s a small restaurant with a small staff, but our waiter was incredibly helpful in explaining the menu since we don’t speak Italian. The bruschetta and both pastas we ordered were delicious. I would go back if I travel to Milan again.

It’s a mistake to skip this restaurant but it’s easy to do. It’s on a tiny narrow side alley across from a brightly lit pizzeria.
Previous Unilocal advisors suggested some of the same you’ll read here.
Yuri our Milanese born waiter guided through the menu. So many interesting sounding dishes. His suggestions on the TWO nights we ate there (at outside tables).
House wine, a Sangiovese these nights was very good, body, flavor & priced at € 12.
The menus a blast to read but as we were only two, Yuri suggested splitting the Eggplant caviar salad (no caviar eggs) which was baked eggplant pulp with chickpeas, cream, spices and vegetables. Ordered this both nights.
Next Pappa al Pomodoro with Buffalo Stracciatella, a slightly warm Tuscan tomato soup. Ordered this twice too… seeing a theme here about great food?
One night we split the Pasta alla Norma, a Sicilian recipe with fresh pasta, pan sautéed eggplant, tomato sauce and pecorino cheese. Not to be boring we asked for a different pasta on night two. Also fresh, ravioli stuffed with ricotta, basil and spinach. The fresh bread made «wiping» the plates easy and the desert and coffee were good too.
Bill night one € 53, night two € 68. We over tipped. Yuri and his serving partner were great.

Staff was very nice and provided great advice both for food and for wine.

Un restaurant italien traditionnel. C’est simple et très bon. L’accueil est chaleureux par un restaurateur amoureux de son métier.

I went very close to cloding and they were extremely welcoming. The atmosphere is lovely, warm, and casually elegant. Service was efficient, yet friendly and unrushed. The food was absolutely outdtanding, right down to the extra delicious bottled water!

Super cute spot in Brera!
Great for coffee, pastries/​sweets, pasta, cold cuts! Take a date here, she will love it!

Stopped by here for some after dinner tea/​coffee and desert.
Cappuccino was very, very strong. Tea was good. my my wife enjoyed the slice of cake she ordered.
Restaurant is nice. we were seated on the 2^nd floor mezzanine. this overlooked the main floor of the restaurant. Service was also very friendly.
