Fodor's Review:

In the Porta Ticinese area, and near the Navigli district, Joia Leggero (light) is a lower-priced, more-informal initiative of innovative chef Pietro Leemann, the man behind Joia. With a pleasant view of the church of St. Eustorgio and a few tables outside, this airy restaurant serves haute vegetarian food. "Leggero" does not necessarily refer to the calorie content; the offerings – especially the excellent desserts – are often satisfyingly rich. This is not typical sprouts-and-grains health food. Try the well-priced set meals (vegetarian lunch is EUR 11, EUR 14 with fish), which are attractively presented on Japanese-inspired trays.

  • Credit Cards: AE, MC, V
