About us

From Asmara to Milan, with a full heart.

Al Sicomoro was born from a simple dream: to bring the authenticity of Eritrean cuisine to Milan — the flavours of childhood, the generosity of a shared table.

The name comes from the sicomoro, the sacred fig of Eritrea. A tree under which communities have gathered for centuries. We wanted to create that place here — in Porta Venezia — where anyone can sit down, eat with their hands, and feel at home.

"The sycamore is more than a tree. It is where families gather, where food is shared, where stories are passed down. We brought that shade to Milan." — Al Sicomoro family
Our values

Three pillars, one mission.

— Community —

Eating together

Eating together is an act of love. Every table here is a small community where food is shared with hands and with the heart.

— Authenticity —

No shortcuts

Injera is made fresh every day, spices sourced directly from the Horn of Africa. Passed-down recipes, real ingredients.

— Hospitality —

Habesha hospitality

Habesha hospitality cannot be taught — it is inherited. Here, every guest is family, every meal is an embrace.
