Global flavours for dinner, drinks and memorable evenings

Restaurant Cuisine at SO Milano

SO Milano brings several culinary traditions together in one menu. Guests can move from sushi and international starters to Italian pasta, Russian specialities and desserts, creating a meal that reflects their own tastes rather than following a single style of cuisine.

A world of flavours at one table

Dining with friends does not always mean sharing the same preferences. Some guests may want sushi, while others would rather choose pasta, discover Russian recipes or explore internationally inspired dishes. As a restaurant with varied cuisine, SO Milano gives everyone at the table the freedom to order according to their appetite.

The menu suits different ways of dining. Visit for drinks and a few shared starters, enjoy a full meal with several courses, or combine dinner with cocktails and an evening programme. There is no fixed duration for a regular visit, although table availability and event schedules may affect timings on busy nights.

SO Milano may be a suitable choice for:

  • couples planning dinner and cocktails;
  • groups whose members enjoy different cuisines;
  • visitors researching cuisines to try in Milan;
  • friends who prefer sharing several dishes;
  • private celebrations and birthday dinners;
  • business gatherings and informal corporate events.

The restaurant includes a main dining room, a winter garden, a summer terrace, a room with a contact bar and a VIP room for up to 20 guests. Each space offers a different setting. The terrace is seasonal and weather-dependent, while the VIP room and event areas should be reserved in advance.

Evening costume parties, music nights and themed events add another dimension to the dining experience. On these occasions, guests can begin with dinner and remain for drinks and entertainment. Booking is recommended for weekends, programme dates and larger groups, as specific rooms and tables may have limited availability.

Popular choices and house dishes

The SO Milano menu is designed to support different dining rhythms. A guest may order one main course, while a group can create a longer experience with shared starters, individual mains and desserts. It is also possible to combine dishes from several culinary traditions rather than staying within one category.

For travellers looking for food from around the world in Milan, this approach offers a simple way to sample contrasting flavours during the same visit. Availability can change, so recommendations and house dishes should be checked with the team when ordering.

Starters

Starters set the pace for the meal. A small selection can accompany an aperitif, while several plates shared across the table can become the first stage of a longer dinner. They are particularly convenient for groups that want to explore the menu before choosing their main dishes.

When planning an order, consider:

  • how many people will share the food;
  • whether guests prefer individual or common plates;
  • which main courses will follow;
  • what drinks will accompany the starters;
  • how quickly the table would like to dine.

Main courses

The main course selection reflects the restaurant’s international character. Pasta, Russian specialities, sushi and dishes inspired by other parts of the world can all be ordered at the same table. This makes the format practical for mixed groups without limiting individual choices.

The service team can explain portion sizes, ingredients and the recommended order of courses. Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary restrictions should provide this information before ordering. Adjustments may be possible for some dishes, but they depend on the recipe and preparation process. A kitchen handling a wide range of ingredients may not be able to guarantee the complete absence of allergen traces.

Desserts

Dessert can complete a multi-course dinner or be enjoyed later in the evening with coffee, a cocktail or an after-dinner drink. The available selection may include regular favourites and changing proposals.

Seasonal availability allows the menu to evolve throughout the year. Guests interested in a specific dish or ingredient should consult the current menu before their visit or ask a member of staff at the restaurant.

Cocktails and drinks from the bar

SO Milano’s bar supports the dining experience from the first aperitif to the final drink of the night. Guests can choose cocktails to accompany sushi and starters, find a drink for the main course or move into a lounge-style evening after dinner.

The room with a contact bar offers a closer view of drink preparation and an opportunity to discuss preferences directly with the bartender. To receive a suitable recommendation, guests can describe the profile they enjoy—dry, sweet, citrus-led, refreshing, delicate or intense.

The drinks selection is suitable for:

  • an aperitif before dinner;
  • cocktails served with shared starters;
  • drinks paired with sushi or pasta;
  • after-dinner and dessert combinations;
  • alcohol-free choices for the evening;
  • bar service during private events.

Cocktails, beverages and individual ingredients may vary depending on the season and current availability. If a guest has an allergy or intolerance, this should also be mentioned when ordering at the bar.

On music nights and during themed or costume parties, the bar becomes part of the wider entertainment programme. Guests planning to combine dinner with an event should check the schedule and booking conditions beforehand.
