Reviews
A delightful Venetian dining experience with authentic local flavors and outstanding hospitality. The dishes were fresh, beautifully prepared, and showcased the rich culinary traditions of Venice. The warm atmosphere and attentive service made us feel genuinely welcome. A wonderful place to enjoy traditional Venetian cuisine, and one we would happily recommend to anyone visiting the city.
After walking along the pretty canals here in Burano we came here for lunch. Did some research and this place here had good feedback. Got a nice table outside with even a bit of shade on that warm, sunny spring day. Ordered a bottle of sparkling water, two glasses of white wine, Fried mixed seafood and a plate of Seafood Pasta. All fish and seafood are locally caught. The food came pretty fast. At first glance the portion didn't look big, but in the end was more than enough. And it is really fair priced here. Paid just around 50 Euros for everything. Both meals were excellent. All seafood in both dishes were really fresh. Cooked perfectly. Nice flavors, tender. Really high quality fish and seafood. The fried seafood is definitely some of the best we've ever had. And we've had plenty on our travels. It's a nice place to grab a meal. Not too busy, nice canal-side location. Staff did a great job, very helpful and friendly. And for a popular place like Burano the prices are more than fair. If we come back one day, we'll definitely have lunch here again. Highly recommended!
Brilliant staff, the whole team were together and positive and enjoying their roles. Great feel and the food was good too. Hot temperature well served decently large portions. The team were helpful and ensuring that you didn't order too much but enough for yourself/ your party. It was a super time for us to have stumbled upon this place. The owner was working with the team and she has a great place for her team and her customers. Very enjoyable
