The story

Seta by Antonio Guida | Two Michelin Stars in Milan, Italy

Seta by Antonio Guida

In the second courtyard of Mandarin Oriental, Milan, Seta brings together precision and warmth. Chef Antonio Guida leads the kitchen with a style that honours Italian tradition while embracing creative techniques — a balance that has earned the restaurant two Michelin stars.

The dining room is defined by clean lines and large windows that open onto a planted outdoor space, where guests can dine in warmer months. Inside, a glass-walled kitchen gives the meal a theatrical edge: you watch the brigade at work, each plate assembled with quiet focus. The atmosphere is elegant but unhurried, with a dress code that asks for refined attire.

The menu changes with the seasons, built around classic Italian ingredients reinterpreted through a contemporary lens. Chef Guida’s approach is supported by a long-standing team: Executive Sous-Chef Federico Dell’Omarino, his right hand for over two decades, and Pastry Chef Marco Pinna, who brings sweetness and lightness to every course.

Beyond the main dining room, Seta offers a Chef’s Table experience and a monthly charity lunch series called A Casa di Antonio, where up to twelve guests join Chef Guida at his home table for a family-style meal. Proceeds support “I Fiori Rari,” a fund for rare disease research founded by the chef.

Seta is closed Sunday and Monday. Lunch and dinner are served Tuesday through Saturday, with a three-course lunch menu that can be completed in an hour. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and welcomes small dogs. Reservations are recommended.
