Osteria La Carbonella

ABOUT

A story of embers, tradition, and passion for cooking

The Osteria La Carbonella is a true Milanese institution since 1978. Established by the Giazzi family, it was born from the dream of Santino, who, after making his first steps as a young man in the city′s venues, decided to set up his own business, bringing the authenticity of charcoal-grilled meat to Milan.

Since then, more than forty years have passed and La Carbonella is still synonymous with conviviality, quality, and respect for tradition. An "old-fashioned" tavern that has managed to make its way into the hearts of the Milanese people and has been frequented over the years by celebrities, politicians, athletes, and anyone looking for a sincere place to always enjoy good food, without following fleeting trends.

THE RESTAURANT

A corner of Milan, where time has stood still

We are located at 9 Terraggio Street, just a few steps away from Corso Magenta, Cadorna Station, and the Basilica of Sant′Ambrogio, in the very heart of Milan′s historic center. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a large, unique room where you will find our main attraction, the large open grill - the pulsating heart of our restaurant. The antique furniture, the wooden arches, and the warm, family atmosphere tell a story of a truly traditional Italian trattoria that has remained faithful to its roots.

The Osteria is also perfect for events and special occasions, offering customized menus, attentive service, and a genuine welcome.

OUR KITCHEN

The most famous Florentine steak in Milan, and much more.

The kitchen of Osteria La Carbonella is a tribute to Tuscan tradition and succulent charcoal-grilled meat, cooked strictly in view. The undisputed star of the show is the Florentine steak, considered by many as one of the best in Milan, accompanied by ribs, cuts, fillets, kidneys, tartare, and hamburgers.

The pasta dishes tell stories of genuine taste, from the "pennette alla toscana" with a three-hour cooked sauce to the iconic Sandokan Spaghetti, developed by chance from a special request by the actor Kabir Bedi and now a must at the establishment. Completing the experience is a cellar full of excellence, with great Tuscan wines such as Brunello and Antinori, alongside selected national labels, and homemade desserts, served from the cart, to finish the meal in authentic style.
