The story
Gino Sorbillo's Milan outpost brings Neapolitan pizza tradition to the Lombardy capital, though creator reviews reveal mixed results. Giovanni Fois highlighted the Mortadella and Pistachio pizza as a standout, though he felt the location doesn't fully capture authentic Neapolitan essence. The restaurant operates at accessible price points in a central location near Corsia dei Servi.
However, Secondo Luca expressed significant disappointment, citing high prices relative to quality, maintenance issues, and excessive sponsorships. He found the Margherita undercooked and felt the Margherita Gialla Massimo Bottura special lacked purpose. Diners should approach with tempered expectations—while the concept is appealing, execution appears inconsistent.

AI summary of what 3 dish mentions say about the food
The margherita pizza earns rapturous praise for its airy, leopard-spotted crust and perfect simplicity. Reviewers agree this is Neapolitan pizza at its soulful, transcendent best.
“This is a classic Margherita, a wheel-of-cart style pizza. The dough is super soft, with 70% hydration and 30-36 hours of leavening. The ingredients are top-notch — the tomato, mozzarella, and olive oil are all excellent. The oil really enhances the flavors. I was expecting it to be a bit chewier, but it's actually very light. The crust is fantastic too. It's a high score for this video, for sure.”

Margherita Gialla Massimo Bottura
This pizza doesn't make sense to exist — I'd almost say it's an insult to the good old Massimo. I found an acidity I didn't expect inside, and when I mentioned it to the manager, he said taste is subjective. It seemed like there was gorgonzola, but then I checked the menu and it says 'affumicato' (smoked) spelled wrong. The texture is firmer and more interesting than the Margherita, with more bite and varied consistencies, but overall it's not good. Definitely not worth it.
