Spectacular food

Food was so fantastic at the Como restaurant that we came back the next day to Milan as was not disappointed. Food was great. Was lovely to meet the owner last night in Como to see the passion behind the recipes including the care he has given to his sourdough for the last 12 years. Would definitely return to either Como or Milan!

Pros: Traditional Italian vegan food, Wine pairings, Lovely venue/ideas/ipad menu

Was the chef on holiday?

3 out of 4 dishes were not good. Food wasn’t fresh and lacked flavor. The bread didn’t come with oil or butter. Bummer

Had higher hopes

It was pretty good, but based on other reviews I expected more. I had orecchiette, it would have been a better dish if it had been sprinkled with plant-based parmesan, as I saw in the photos. Millefoglie di melanzane, zucchine - delicious! Portions are small, you should take the first and second course if you are hungry. But it would be an expensive lunch. Service was nice.

traditional vegan meal

Fully vegan restaurant where traditional dishes are reinterpreted in a plant-based way. Their lasagna, the house specialty, is worth noting.

Pros: traditional vegan meal, generous portions, friendly staff

Vegan Italian food

Proper Italian restaurant but all vegan, how great is that?
A little expansive, but it's on a touristy street. Food was delicious and very homey, reminded me of my grandmother's cooking (and she was a great cook!)

Pros: Location, Food, Service

Cons: A little expansive

Didn't feel welcome

So, I was super excited to be in Italy as a vegan, hoping to have some nice cheesey stuff. Had to make a careful choice since we just had 1 evening. Decided on Il Lughino after seeing the great reviews and since all other vegan places just had American cuisine.
The server made us feel unwelcome and was very slow to respond to our requests. The chef was okay though.
The food was good, quite different from what I expected to have in Italy, as an Indian.
Tried their lasagne (abysmally small portion size), the caramelised onion with bean puree (which I especially enjoyed) amongst a few other dishes. Didnt feel like trying dessert since we didn't feel especially comfortable with the server's attitude.
Advice : Go for it if you want to try authentic Italian food and don't have other options

Pros: Food taste

Cons: Slow service, Unfriendly staff

Nice place and welcoming staff

The restaurant offers saisonal and regional food, that is all plant-based. The menu is updated daily and available in Italian and English. The food was nice: we tried Gnocchi and filled eggplant.

Not as good as I was hoping for

It's in the Brera district which is nice, and a few minutes' walk from the art gallery. It was a very hot day (38 degrees) and the restaurant does not have effective air conditioning. I chose the courgette carpaccio starter which was nice enough - fresh, lots of yellow courgette. Very simple, slightly bitter, couldn't taste any lemon. It was on a sort of crumbly wafer which did not really work. 6/10. I then. had the white cabbage lasagne. The filling was tasty but the lasagne "pasta" was really weird. The whole thing was very soft and stodgy. 4/10. I might go back if I was struggling to find a better option. I wouldn't get the lasagne again. It's ok and at least has plenty of options.

Pros: Options for vegans.

Cons: Food was a little uninspired.

5 star experience

Loved the eggplant lasagne. If you like eggplant, this lasagne is heaven! Everything else was lovely as well, from the stuffed zucchini, to the wine, to the dessert.
This is a good place following the traditional menu structure with primi and secondi, which can sometimes be difficult for vegan places to do without relying on meat substitutes. The secondi options are well thought out incorporating vegan proteins, such as vegetable dishes such as ginger fennel casserole with lentils, and onions served on a broad bean puree. Staff is fantastic too!

Pros: Lasagne lasagne lasagne! , Multi course meal available a la carte, Wine by the glass

Good, but not as good as it should be

This place generated high expectations, partly due to the prices, and it was ok (we had different lasagnes and one other dish), but it was far from outstanding. Somewhat uninspired. A but bland. Given the "fine dining" vibe this place projects, it could do better.

Vegan Italian specialities

Il Lughino offers typical Italian vegan and gluten-free dishes.
Antipasti, lasagne, risotto, pasta...

I tasted a fennel and pistachio lasagne, exquisite!
For the main course, an Italian specialty: roasted flat onions, served on a bean purée, very original.
For dessert, I tried their gluten-free tiramisu, not very sweet and very light.
The setting is very chic, with an impressive choice of dishes.
The menu is offered on a tablet, no QR code, that's a change.

I was well advised on my choices, and received a very warm welcome.

Very good, but could use a bit more flavor

Really cute spot in the Brera district. The staff was very friendly. The food was good but I’ve had better vegan Italian dishes. The sauce on the lasagne was a little lite, tomatoes on the bruschetta were fresh but not super tasty. Still a great spot and I would go back if I’m that part of town.

Great Food

This place looks quite fancy but surprisingly affordable. Fully vegan and great food. So a must if you are in Milano. Lasagna is their speciality but risotto was also wonderful. You have to wait for half an hour for it but definitely worth it. They should however significantly improve their dessert

Best Vegan Lasagna

I was so excited to try some traditional Italian food when visiting Italy, which isn’t the easiest thing to do as a vegan! But Il Lughino pulled through and made me so happy with their Italian offerings. Everything is house-made and fresh. I loved the spinach tofu lasagna. I wish I could have more!! All their breads are also made in house, which I thought paired nicely with the seasonal appetizer which was rice and nettling flan, with leek cream glazing.

Pros: Traditional Italian, House Made

Sehr lecker und mehr als man denkt

Wir sind aufgrund der guten Rezensionen und weil es auch am Nachmittag geöffnet hat, hierher gegangen. Es war mit Abstand das teuerste Essen, dass wir in den vergangenen zwei Wochen hier in Italien hatten. Aber es war es absolut wert.

Und die Portionen machen definitiv satter als die Größe auf den Fotos vermuten lassen. Dabei war alles wirklich sehr schmackhaft!

Wir werden bei nächster Gelegenheit wieder kommen.

Pros: Geschmack, Lage, Service angenehm unaufdringlich

Cons: Teuer

Vegan dining at it’s best

Service was lovely, great set of staff working there. Lughino starter (Russian salad, vegetable quiche and chickling). The quiche was especially delicious. You don’t have to ask for bread, they bring it over. Escarole lasagne was lovely, nice portion. We ordered the tomato spaghetti (couldn’t have the cheese as it had cashews in it and I’m allergic, but my partner said it was good). It needs something else, it’s not got enough spice or basil even though it’s meant to be an ingredient on the menu. It’s still tasty but just feel it could be elevated a bit further with those extras being a bit more present in the dish. Tiramisu was good, tasted actually of coffee, corn and soy pie with plum was great as well and a whole bottle of Tuscan white wine. Lovey service, very friendly. Vegan fine dining at its best😄

Pros: Lughino starter, Escarole Lasagne
