Dear friends, established in 1976, for more than 40 years Trattoria del Pescatore is renowned all over Milan and maybe the whole Italy for its exquisite, one and only Astice alla Catalana (cold lobster and tomato salad served as a main course). Of course here you will also find many other delicious Mediterranean high-quality dishes but just don’t forget what the place is famous for.
Keep in mind that there is a space for “people watching” here. While savoring the delicious seafood, you’ll be surrounded by vibrant life: elegant senior Italian couples, local celebrities, and fashionable Japanese buyers – all gathered here for the lobster. The service is friendly and you won’t face here quite a typical Milanese attitude when the staff pretend they don’t see you.
What also makes this place special is that it has the charm of a traditional Italian trattoria, yet getting a table here is no easy task. So don’t miss the chance to enjoy this culinary journey , reserve a table at Trattoria del Pescatore well in advance. Don’t let online booking service demotivate you with no slots available and just call them on weekdays from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm at (+39) 02 58 320 452. If you try to reach them at a different time, they simply won’t answer the phone.
So, the spot is perfect for both lunch and dinner, welcoming you to come with a lively large group or a more intimate gathering. As for romantic date it’s more of a “not quite” than a “yes.” The average bill comes to around 75 euros, including wine. There is an outside area, but pick a table inside and enjoy!
P.S. Tip #2. As locals say you can come without a booking at 21.30 and most probably will get a table. Whoever doesn’t take risk don’t eat astice alla catalana!
