Best Restaurants in Navigli (2026): Eat Like You Live Here
Navigli is good for canal-side pizza, cocktail bars and a long Milanese dinner, and the restaurants people save most are Testone, Navigli and Trattoria Madonnina. Ranked from 14 places we track here, creator picks first.
Updated · 14 places we track in Navigli, all first recorded in March 2026
The Navigli is Milan's canal quarter, and it is built for the evening. Napoli 1820 and I Capatosta handle pizza, Osteria Milanese OSSBUS and Trattoria Madonnina cook the local dishes, and Testone does Umbrian pasta and grilled meat. After dinner, Rita's Tiki Room, Backdoor 43 and 28 Posti keep the bar crawl short. GinO12 gives you gin in a garden. It gets loud and crowded on a Saturday, so book.
