Dry

Genial gute Cocktails, super Stimmung, die passende Bedienung und richtig gute Musik. Ein echter Geheimtipp für Milano!

Nette Drinks und furchbar junges Publikum, mit meinen 41 Jahren bin ich hier ein oldi ;o)

The best place in Milan for drinks!
The design of the bar is glamour and people too!
The staff and service are excellent!

Reminds me of a place in the east village… The pros: well made cocktails, delicious focaccia and pizza (better than average but not the best in Italy so it’s relative). I tried the Ramos Fizz (frothy dry drink), Superstition (herbal mix of cocktails — very dry with an interesting 5-​spice like taste), and Blood and Sand (whisky with bitters kind of drink). I liked the last the most but I found them all kind of light (3 and still sorta sober). I guess my only real complaint is that service is super super slow but typical of Italy. Great atmosphere for early to late drinks for grown-​ups. Not for spring break party fans but more restaurant then a lounge which was perfect for us as we were hungry at midnight.

My wife and I came for drinks. They cocktails are very good, and it is a fun atmosphere. Great place to relax, chat, people watch, and enjoy the evening.

We shared two pizzas and a salad. I really enjoyed the salad — the one with lettuce, apple, hazelnut paste and ricotto and both pizzas, especially the one with pancetta.
We arrived a little before 19:00 and the restaurant was closed, so we were super impressed when the roller doors opened at 19:00 on the dot!
The complimentary olives we almost inhaled were really good, as was the service.
The music was a little loud… or maybe we are just getting old!

Being from NYC and being a huge fan of well crafted cocktails… I’m in love. Went with a couple friends for a quasi business aperitivo and the bar area was relatively full. The two guys had Brahn (sp?) a bitter cocktail. If you enjoy a stronger more sophisticated spritz this would be good choice. They ordered a second round. I had a Messico, so good! It was tequila, agave syrup, sweet red pepper and Szechuan pepper. Then a Bramble– gin, blackberry, lemon and sugar. Super good too. We had some small apps from the bar menu, all were also good.
Good:
The décor, the lighting, the music (mix of alternative, italian hip hop, and light dub) the cocktails, the friendly staff, the diverse crowd (I was told there was a designer for an important italian accessories brand, a famous italian singer etc but I don’t really care since I’m American) but really the mix of people was nice to see, the food.
Bad:
The service was a bit slow and the bar seating is not particularly comfortable.

I have to confess… I’m not a pizza lover, I mean, I eat it if I have to (especially for a quick lunch break) but I prefer a hearty dish of pasta over a pizza anytime. However, Dry’s pizza might be one of those rare exceptions.
The place is nice, the style is that kind of fake-​effortless décor (some design pieces here and there), a nice bar and good seating space in the back. Staff is nicer than average (note that in Milan this doesn’t necessarily mean they are nice). Atmosphere is cool, relaxed, be ready for the occasional model walking in.
The cocktails are very good, perfect if it only were for the taste, unfortunately the tiny jars or glasses they’re served in take away half a star. (My favorite was the Dry Bloody, served in a cute jar).
Pizzas are delicious, crispy at the right point, good quality ingredients, too bad we have the same problem of the drinks… people, in these cases size does matter! I’m not asking for a giant pizza but at least a normal size, doesn’t matter that you try to keep prices lower, I’d gladly pay a couple of bucks more for a bigger pizza.
Summing up, nice place, delicious pizzas and cocktails, prices average (pizzas are between 7 and 10 euro + extra ingredients) but portions on the small side, either don’t come very hungry or be ready to order 2 pizzas (you’ll surely enjoy them, anyhow).
