Alessandro, Alessandro thank you for a memorable evening! You treated my children and wife with genuine hospitability and adoration. To everyone reading this review, you would be wise to dine here. My family, to include 2 children, ages 10 and 7, shared a great night at this restaurant. The food catered to our tastes. They even created a dish my... More

We visited the small on out last night in Milan and it was a lovely experience. We went after reading the great reviews all which mention Allessando the owner. He is truly passionate and clearly loves his job and his positive energy is infectious! We couldn't decide what to have so Allessando chose for us and even recommended the wine... More

Myself and my hubby went to The Small last week for a meal.It did not disappoint us. the food was so tasty and generous portions.The owner was so friendly and explained all the food to us.The wine was very nice and reasonably priced 14e a bottle.We would go back again.It is a very intimate restaurant with a great hostess.

Having enjoyed a 4 day stay in Milan, for our last night we looked for somewhere local on Trip Advisor and The Small seemed interesting. It certainly didn't disappoint. This was a dining experience like no other, like the name suggests, a very small restaurant but full of atmosphere and charisma. I would happily return here everyday of the week.... More

On tripadvisor this restaurant already interested us. This afternoon we inquired for a table for tonite. Allessando let us know he only had a table for 3 available from 7 till 8pm. When we arrived we had a very personable service by allessando, had great food and a picture perfect wine to accompany that food selection. We are staying a... More

You get into "The Small" and you enter in a different dimension, very Italian and very much mirroring the character of its owner- Alessandro. Location in kitsch, unique and small; food is good (maybe not excellent), Italian and fresh; cost is average (40 euros). It is suggested a stop here to everybody that want to taste something different in a... More

This place is an absolute must! Suffering from jet-lag we turned up a bit earlier to see if we could grab some nibbles and Alessandro was more than welcoming bringing us tapas to share and wine. He shared light-hearted conversation with us even sitting down to enjoy a wine before the first few reservations arrived. We continued into our night... More

The Small was recommended to me by a friend in Australia who tried to explain the restaurant and the owner and the whole dining experience but I couldn't even begin to imagine how fantastic it would really be! Alessandro was more than accommodating considering we did not have a booking and took the time to carefully explain his vast menu... More

This cozy place is definitely worth de-tour! What makes this little place special is Ale (the owner). He is simply amazingly sweet and will treat you as an old friend, will chat with you and call you all the sweetest names available in Italian. Food is great! Really! The interior is a bit crazy but definitely cozy. I will go... More
