Reviews
This restaurant was a complete dream! The food was amazing, the taste was completed perfectly with the seasoning. As it goes the same for the service, the service guys were very nice and the most was the guy with the buzz cut, he was very nice and handed out our food to the table and drinks. The atmosphere was perfect! The weather was too good to be true, the people around us were also very nice which we are thankful for!
Amazing place! Perfect flavor and great service. Nice terrace with fans for the heat. The location is near the famous riots bridge. Excellent experience
My husband and I had such a wonderful dining experience here during our time in Venice. Tucked away near Rialto, this restaurant is truly a hidden gem that deserves far more recognition. We learned that the restaurant has only been under new ownership for the past two months, and it's clear that Albio, the new owner is passionate about what they're building. You can genuinely see how much him and his team care about the quality of the food and the service they provide, making every guest feel welcome and valued. The presentation of each dish was beautiful, and the quality exceeded our expectations. Our absolute favourites were the lobster fettuccine and the grilled scallops—both were cooked perfectly, packed with flavour, and among the best meals we had in Venice. The portions were generous and left us feeling completely satisfied. We also appreciated the affordable wine selection, which paired perfectly with our meal. Combined with the warm, inviting ambience and attentive service, it made for a relaxed and memorable evening. If you're visiting Venice and want to avoid the tourist traps, I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's a fantastic restaurant with a lot of potential under its new ownership, and we truly hope it gets the recognition it deserves. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Venice.
If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Authentic Italian cuisine with absolutely delicious food. The service is top notch! One of the best restaurants in Venice. Highly recommended, and I would definitely come back. I had the Cacio e Pepe, and it was outstanding.
