Fine vegan dining! - Edit
The founder of Linfa used to be the manager of Purezza in Camden, London.
Read moreHe’s a great guy and moved back to Milan to open his own vegan, gluten free restaurant.
The food is amazing, they have a traditional Italian menu alongside a sushi menu.
The sushi is interesting although not traditional Japanese at all but the flavors are nice.
The Italian menu is very fine and such a treat!
Only disappointment was the Tiramisu which really tasted gluten free

Amazing experience all around - Edit
Gourmet vegan gluten free food served in style. Prix fixe meals are not cheap, but this is fine dining so no surprises there.

Horrible experience - Edit
I ordered from them online to celebrate a special occasion, and risotto and pizza came undercooked and without any flavor, food was cold and sushi was too salty and tiramisu was just simply bad, I thought by the reviews that this was a really good restaurant but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone ! Not for this price

Just vegetables - Edit
The place is 100% vegan but it seems like it's owned by non-vegan people as it only serves vegetables without any other type of food like pasta, rice, beans or fake meats. Also very expensive.

Sushi davvero ottimo - Edit
Frequento questo locale dall'apertura e devo dire che negli anni è migliorato a dismisura. La qualità del sushi è migliorata in maniera imbarazzante. Ora hanno sapori davvero bilanciati e ottimi. Consigliato.

Fantastico 😍 - Edit
Sono stata a cena e ho assaporando il gusto incredibile della sua bistecca vegana, dei nuggets di zucca, del sushi vegano. Servizio attento e gentile, locale molto accogliente. Sono rimasta incantata. Ovviamente il prezzo è alto. Ci torneremo.

Terrible - Edit
The food was bland, no flavours. We have had multiple speciality vegan experiences across the countries and this was the worst. Italy being my own country I was ashamed to have dinner here with my husband. Only attention if you pay money like the table next to us. The risotto was cold and when questioned no one even apologised or asked if everything was ok. Don’t go!

Sehr gut. Angenehme Ambiente. - Edit
Das Essen hat sehr gut geschmeckt. Die Portion niocchi mit cashewsauce war sehr klein. Die pulpeten hätten mehr Sauce vertragen können. Sehr gute Musik in angenehmen Ambiente. Ich war am Donnerstag Abend dort, zwischen 19 und 21 Uhr. Das Lokal war fast leer. Sehr schade. Die junge Kellnerin hat mir zwar die Jacke abgenommen und wieder zurückgebracht, aber nicht hinein geholfen obwohl ich es erwartet habe ( gewisse Körperstellung ). In dem gehobenen Ambiente soll es selbstverständlich sein. Daher Punktabzug. Die Kellner etwas zu aufdringlich gewesen.
Read morePros: Alles Vegan , Sehr köstlich , Schöne Musik und Ambiente
Cons: Sehr teuer, Kleine Portionen , Kellner zu aufdringlich

Pizettes are amazing - Edit
My partner and I were pleasantly surprised by how good the pizettes were, especially knowing that they're gluten free! The mushroom one I got was incredible. The matcha tiramisu was also incredibly delicious. Staff are attentive and very kind. Service available in English and in Italian.

Delicious, diverse and full of surprises - Edit
This is a real gem of a restaurant, the menu is imaginative and so diverse - we had to go for the tasting menu as could not decide. Everything was exceptional and presented with such love - this is a very special restaurant. The pizza dough is the best gluten free base I have tasted so far. The gnocchi are just the perfect balance of soft and firm and the truffle cream was divine. Everything was really exceptional - a real treat. All the wines are organic as well and a lot of the food ingredients too. The owner Eduardo goes to great lengths to source superior ingredients and it shows. Great food, lovely ambience and atmosphere- do not miss when visiting Milan! The whole restaurant is also gluten free and dog friendly which is such a bonus. We went for a big slap up lunch en route and there is a big car park nearby for the local supermarket so easy to access as parking can be a challenge in Milan. .

Posto molto bello e cibo eccezionale. The sushi was delicious as were the traditional dishes like the pasta bolognesa and gnocchi tartufo. Dessert were gorgeous and delicious!

Overpriced - Edit
I was honestly excited to eat here and left very disappointed. Tried the South pizza, it was very small and tasted weird (it was like a deep fried bread with very artificial sauce); the lemonade was just a small bottled one, very overpriced. Will not give it another try.

Very good. Enjoyable dinner - Edit
Everything we had was a unique and different version of my vegan experiences. Not the same old. The cashew truffle gnocchi was fabulous - our favorite. Eggplant Parmesan was interesting but probably wouldn’t get again. Sushi Mediterranean was good. Sud pizza was good. Tiramisu very enjoyable.

Bennissimo! - Edit
This was the best place we went to in Milan! A must go to - we went twice in a row it was that good. The food and service was impeccable, so many options and gluten free too! We don't usually eat gluten free but we couldn't taste the difference, everything was great!
Read moreWe would recommend the charcoal focaccia, and get it with a saucy dish (like the protein meatballs) so you can dip it in, very chefs kiss combo!
Pros: Everything

Amazing experience - Edit
We were a company of people with variable dietary restrictions (some vegans, some gluten intolerant, some lactose intolerant) so we picked this place that for once everyone will be able to freely pick from the entire menu.
Read moreBut we didn't even dare to expect such a wonderful experience. The food was amazing, the omnivores in our family also enjoyed it tremendously. The service was at a top level.
And if you go for the "a la carte" option and not the tasting menu it even feels cheap for the value you get.
Pros: Great vegan andd gluten free food, Amazing service, Cheap for the value you get

The best gluten-free restaurant I've tried - Edit
Every dish we ordered was not only delicious, but you couldn't even tell it was gluten-free, especially the pizza base. It had the same texture as a regular pizza. The menu is large with a lot of variety, from Italian to Japanese cuisine (there are dedicated sushi chefs in the kitchen). The restaurant itself is a beautiful space and the service was friendly. Highly recommend!

Vegan and Gluten free - Edit
It was all fantastic! The Enoki mushroom and the truffle tagliatelle were absolutely top notch, the canapé served at the beginning was also spectacular. The sushi was fantastic (we will be back for a sushi dinner), the pizza phenomenal being vegan and gluten free. The tomato is also very fresh and full of flavour. Great service, the guys are really nice and have a great energy. The place is very beautiful, modern, elegant and youthful!
