Nice lunch

Rosmarino offers many options to choose from and is fairly priced (we paid 13 euros each). The staff was friendly and the venue quite cozy

Healthy, fresh, wholesome food

I ate here with my friend once while visiting Milan. The gentleman behind the counter taking our order was very friendly, informative, and patient. He explained what all of the food was in detail. You choose what size meal tray you want, what food you want, and they weigh the food to provide the price. It is weighed by kilograms.

The food tasted very fresh, healthy, and like it had wholesome ingredients. Everything tasted pretty good except for the free bread and sauce. We were given free bread and sauce to put on the bread. The sauce had the texture of yogurt. We didn't like the bread and sauce.

Un paradiso

È una (piccola) gastronomia che ha una vetrina piena zeppa di piatti da consumare in loco, o da asporto: primi piatti, secondi, cereali e verdure, oltre alla zuppa o la salsa di soia che servono con il pane.
Ottima varietà anche di dolci, dalle torte a dolcetti monoporzione.
Non è per nulla caro, e tutto quello che abbiamo mangiato era ottimo.

Buono ma il locale..

Cibo buono, tutto vegano, 2 dimensioni di piatto da comporre prima di sedersi. Ammirevole e oculata a livello di business la scelta di avere un unica mensa che prepara cibo fresco ogni giorno e che distribuisce ai punti vendita. Peccato il locale e il bagno poco curati.

Pros: Molte opzioni vegane, Prezzo nella media

Cons: Locale e bagno poco curati

Vegan island

I love this place! It is by weight and you can get a little bit of everything! Which you will want to cuz its sooooo yummy 😄 it's an oasis of vegan Italian food in a country where the main choices are pasta with tomato sauce or cheese less pizza. Byo hot sauce.

Pros: Everything vegan!! , Cooked with love, Cute employees

Cons: Made me fart, No hot sauce

Great, but expensive

Delicious food - tons of options that all all looked amazing and seemed incredibly healthy. Some of the food I had never heard of or seen before, which I always like. You can choose as many dishes as you want and pay by weight - for a full meal, though, you end up paying 15 Euros.

Pros: All-vegan, Healthy, Staff is helpful and speaks English

Cons: Expensive

Not only vegan...

... But also gluten free!
Highly recommended!
The variety of dishes is guaranteed by a seasonal cuisine.

Great Vegan restaurant

This is a great vegan restaurant. I had there several lunch meals and they were all very good and with a reasonable price. The meals are priced by their weight. You also get for free hot tea and cold water as well as vegan mayonnaise with bread slices. They also have vegan desserts, but I didn't try them. The only thing I would improve is to add to the options also fresh vegetables and fruits. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant.

Pros: All Vegan, Resoable price, Tasty and healthy food

Cons: No fresh vegetables and fruits

Precio asequible

Realmente no sabría muy bien cómo describir este restaurante, nos costó un poco encontrarlo porque parece más una asociación que un restaurante.
La comida se compra al peso en el mismo plato, tiene mucha variedad y el dependiente se esfuerza mucho por comunicarse y que sepas lo que compras, nos dio a probar dos producto que a día de hoy no sé muy bien lo que era.
Tiene mucha variedad de platos que puedes combinar y la lasaña estaba increíblemente deliciosa. El resto de platos me resultaban más típicos de la comida india o de Oriente medio por el uso de las especias.
Es todo self-service y tú te pones tu plato y lo recoges cuando te vas.
En cada mesa hay agua y te de forma gratuita, el restaurante no es muy grande pero dispone de mesas suficientes.

Pros: Es económico, Mucha variedad, Agua y té gratis

Cons: Self-service

Delicious but expensive!

The food was absolutely delicious. My wife and I both had a pretty big plate filled with several different things and we loved every bite! It tastes like hearty comfort food.

There was free water and tea on the table, which was nice. They also provided free bread and a few sauces to dip the bread. Unfortunately that wasn't very tasty though.

However, the experience as a whole was a bit disappointing... The worker spoke English and was helpful, but his vibe was very cold. Not friendly or welcoming at all. There was no music on and the place was empty so it felt awkward and like we had to whisper.

The food is sold by the kilogram, and unless you eat like a small child it's really expensive—especially when considering the food is made in bulk and reheated in an oven and served on a paper plate. My wife and I both had a good sized plate, but nothing over the top, and the total bill was €32. Also, some foods are €21/kg and others are €24/kg, but if you mix the two, they weigh the entire plate and charge €24/kg for everything. This doesn't seem fair and was really off-putting.

If the food was cheaper, I'd give it five stars.

sad food

This place makes a point about healthy food but it doesn't care mich for taste and presentation.
The food looks a lot the same. All kind of yellow brownish.
There are some good foods occasionally but you never know which ones.
Everything lack seasoning.
The people are very nice though

Disappointing food

I really hoped for more coming to this place. The atmosphere is relaxed and the guy helping us was very friendly but the food was a little disappointing. This place is quite cheap, so I didn't expect the highest quality of food but I just didn't enjoy the food too much. Ordering the seitan was a mistake. Although the carrot cake tasted great.

Pros: Carrot cake was really good, Staff was very friendly,

Cons: I just didn't enjoy the food

Lifesaver!

I was on a business trip to Milan and had been taking buses and trams all over the place only to see that Rosmarino was very close to where i was staying and i went in there, really hungry and grumpy and it was like a plant-based haven for my empty stomach and tired head!
I like the idea of weighing the food and paying by the kilo - this way, you can order exactly as much as you will eat, with no food waste and not paying for food you don't eat. Also I could relive my childhood by eating my first ever vegan SACHER TORTE.

If you're ever in Milan, don't miss this gem.

Pros: all vegan, large variety of food, friendly staff

Cons: none

Great Vegan Food

It was great to find this restaurant in the centre of Milan. They have a huge variety of tasty dishes which one can select and combine into a meal of any size your appetite demands. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we were able to communicate with a mixture of English and Italian. Leave some room for the yummy ice-cream, in particular the coffee and chocolate.

Pros: Value for money, Huge variety of dishes, Tasty macrobiotic food

A fantastic vegan experience

I could hardly leave the place. Sugarfree sweets, even ice cream; the most wonderful gnocchies I've ever had, and the staff was just ever so kind. I can't wait to go back. It is wonderful that such places exist!

Pros: Excellent vegan food, Healthy cuisine, Good value
