Would not go back
Entered this place with a lot of hopes. Must admit that i havent really tried much of Italian in Bangalore, but still wanted to give this place a try.
Being a veggie, i found this place quite disastrous.
1) Really cudnt make much from the listed menu
2) The choice was very limited
3) with the little veggie non-alcoholic food we had, ended up shelling out Rs.1200/- !!
I would not like to go back to this place ...

Pretty authentic
Food is pretty authentic. Good ingredients too. Comfy sofas. Pricey, but good. For less pricey but hearty Italian food, try Herb and Spices in Indiranagar (12th Main and 80ft road)

Decent Food. High Price. Ignorant Waiters.
Been there myself. Food is OK. Price is high. Service is not great. Waiters have no clue about the menu.
Fiorano down the road is a better bet. That sums it up.

Simply The Best
Via Milano , what can I say ? The food is like nothing you have ever tasted in Bangalore.
The partners are Paulo, ( Italian) he is the chef and insists on only the BEST ingredients, Carl and Roger , the MOST friendly people who will always welcome you. All three are the owners / partners.
If you want to impress your girlfriend / future mother-in-law / boss , take them here. The service is sooo good without being subservient. European polite. The owners all have many, many years in 5*+ hotels across the middle east , and it shows. They train their staff on a daily basis about the finer points of service. The food is to ’Die For" try the baby chicken with Palma ham ( imported from Italy).
If you think you have tasted Pizza, you haven’t until you eat Pizza here,( it is hand-made, and I think even the cheese and black olives are imported!) Do not eat a big main course because the deserts are out of this world!! Not only the taste but even the presentation is beyond what the Taj or Leela could even dream of doing.
I LOVE the seating, normal tables or if you are feeling little amorous, white leather sofas.
The music is great, soft jazz, lounge, and never too loud to stop conversation.
If you like a drinky ( I Know I do!) the selection of wines is amazing and growing all the time , ask Carl and he will recommend THE perfect wine to accompany your meal, or some really good imported whiskeys , gins ( London Gordons Dry Gin) and even American, Jack Daniels and Jim Beam.
Be prepared for something really different and BETTER.
I am running out of superlatives for Via Milano, try it once and you will become like me, ADDICTED.
A truly wonderful place to eat , relax and enjoy.

I like it!
A revisit to Via Milano for lunch confirmed most of my previous experiences – heavenly Italian cuisine in cool ambiance. The contemporary furniture with its clean lines and red and white colours, retro black and white hanging lamps, chic white window shades gives the restaurant a neat look without taking away any of the warmth. The white leather sofa by the picture windows which overlook Koramangala’s traffic-filled roads looked very inviting and was the perfect place for a leisurely afternoon tete-a-tete.
There were quite a few kids in the restaurant that day, since it was a Saturday, including my own – but it was still not overly noisy or boisterous. Two Americans discussed business over beers in one corner, a smartly dressed lady worked on her laptop in the bar area and there were two other families and a group of women. I am going to change my earlier recommendation of classifying Via Milano as romantic and say that it is perfect for business lunches and get-togethers with family and friends.
Via Milano has some nice imported wines by the bottle. The choices for wines by the glass are however pretty sad (two to be precise) and when we asked for the zinfandel we were told it was replaced by two other choices – one of which was a Grover’s red wine. I did not like it.
The delicious bread basket with the fresh plain and olive breads and breadsticks along with the six dips and sides appeared – the diced tomatoes, ground basil and garlic, creamy potato mayonnaise and the virgin olive oil, delicious chilli olive oil and balsamic vinegar. My daughter munched on these continuously and had a whale of a time making her own bruschetta. There are only two soup options available – both non-vegetarian – we tried the chicken and mushroom soup with gnocchi. Gnochhi is a small pancake usually made with potatoes (in this case it was) and has a melt-in-the-mouth quality like good cheese. The soup was very good although a bit too filling for one.
The rocket salad which came with pears and lettuce and very strangely a sesame-flavoured, asian-influenced (?) dressing was good though not everyone in our group agreed with me. The mozzarella and zuchinni balls which were deep fried were awesome. The margarita pizza with tomato, basil and mozzarella was good so was the penne pasta which had my daughter licking her fingers. Basic stuff but very well made. I had the spinach and ricotta annellini – it was ravioli stuffed with spinach and ricotta cheese was delicious. The most interesting looking item which we ordered was the potato pancake with vegetables. Thin-cut potatoes were fried to form a crispy pancake that was piled with multi-coloured slivers and twists of vegetables including carrots, red and yellow capsicums and zucchini. Very, very good!
Service was good and prompt. A meal for two, including alcohol is approximately Rs.1000.
