About Diana Garden Bar & Restaurant

In Porta Venezia, Diana Garden Bar & Restaurant puts its garden at the centre of the visit. It sits inside the H Club Diana hotel on Viale Piave, and its offers help distinguish different formats. Easy Lunch starts at €10; the published menu lists a salad at that price, €16 for salad and a first course, €22 for salad and a main, or €34 for all three. The website describes seasonal buffet starters followed by a dish ordered from the menu. In the evening, Milanese aperitivo costs €15 and includes a changing buffet; premium drinks cost extra. Neither is an unlimited meal from start to finish, so check what each price includes.

Favourable comments often mention the greenery, décor, friendly staff and chance to talk in a quieter setting than the street. Views on the aperitivo buffet are less consistent: some visitors like the selection and atmosphere, while others feel the variety or value for money falls short. Check the specific offer for the day rather than assuming the lunch and evening buffets work alike. Across the platforms, opinions differ on variety, the bill and service, so it is worth choosing according to the format on offer rather than the garden photos alone.

The address is Viale Piave 42, a short distance from Porta Venezia and its transport connections; map a route from your accommodation. The restaurant lists daily service from 12:30 to 11 p.m. and bar hours from 10 a.m. to 1 a.m., although offers and spaces may change with the season or events. At lunch, check what comes with the set-menu combinations; for aperitivo, confirm that the buffet is available and factor in the cost of a premium drink. It is an option for eating and taking a break in central Milan, rather than the best choice if your priority is unlimited food at the lowest cost.
