Ciao e benvenuti a Voghera!

At Voghera we proudly showcase the culinary refinement of Northern Italian cuisine, with a focus on Milanese traditional dishes. Our small menu is inspired by the seasons and reflects the products availability of that time of the year.
Along some of our signature Milanese dishes such as Cotoletta alla Milanese – breaded bone-in 16oz veal cutlet, or Risottino alla Milanese – Carnaroli rice simmered with saffron, you can enjoy the Menu Milanese – a 4- course prix-fixe menu that revolves around Milan’s best-known recipes.

Also, Voghera is the first to introduce APERICENA in the United States. Very similar to the Spanish Tapas, this modern Milanese style of dining is derived from the combination of the words Aperitivo (happy hour) and Cena (dinner). It’s available as happy hour, as well as every night in substitution of the full dinner menu if desired.

Had a reservation, got a text confirming the reservation, showed up and they were closed. Got an email 2 days later from open table saying they closed permanently due to “complicated legal issues”- which would have been helpful PRIOR to the reservation. This was a Saturday night & made it difficult to find a table for a group of 7.

We had a reservation but the restaurant was closed when we arrived. There was no note on the door and the website nor their Google profile were updated to reflect their closure. They did not bother to call me to cancel our reservation.

Great place with great authentic Italian. Very limited menu which made choosing easy. The ravioli with brandy cream sauce was literally one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. We ordered a second plate.

I’ve been to this restaurant before and the food was amazing. Unfortunately this time around it was okay. The gnocchi was so salty I couldn’t eat it. Could have been that it was NYE and just an oversight but for the cost of the dish it should have happened.
