Many local regulars came in and greeted the staff like old friends. Laughter was heard from across tables, smiles shared among friends and families and everyone was in a great mood. It was infectious! My mom and I wanted to try some of the island's legendary seafood, so we each ordered the whole local sea bass aka Bronzino. One word: ethereal. The fish was grilled to perfection with crispy skin and soft, flaky white flesh on the inside. Served with a corn cake thing and radicchio/carrot mix, this was such a simple and yet flavorful, amazing dish. It just tasted so fresh, unlike anything you could get from a big chain restaurant. Eating this meal and feeling like you're among family was just an experience I will never forget! Highly recommend you check this out if you visit Burano!

The pizza and pastas were definitely made with loving hands. The dessert, not so much, as it was constructed with stale lady fingers. Oh well, I didn't need to raise my blood sugar anyway.

We ended up getting a few items that we really enjoyed. Fish Lasagna - This doesn't sound but wow it was one of the best things we had on our trip in Italy. It's delicious, and all the flavors totally work. Creamy, packed with flavor. (5/5) Seafood Pizza - We got this pizza that had I think arugula and shrimp on it. It was pretty good, not the best pizza I've had here but it was tasty. (4/5) Overall I think this was a good spot to eat especially when you're on the island of Burano.

They had AC inside and it was nice considering it was a hot day. Only reason I gave only 3 stars is because the one server was sort of rude. The table next to us didn't want wine and just ordered water. When he turned his back he was rolling his eyes. Maybe they don't drink or want to hydrate with water (which you pay for anyway) since it was hot outside. Then when they didn't order more expensive food items he also seemed disgusted and annoyed Everyone else there was great but it makes me wonder what he did to us since I just ordered spaghetti with butter sauce. (wasn't that hungry and just wanted a simple pasta dish) if he doesn't approve of such inexpensive food items maybe he should suggest them be removed!!! He was the rudest person I have encountered this whole trip to Italy.

It's a hot day and I'm glad we had a seat inside with air conditioner. Most places don't offer AC…read more I ordered the risotto with scampi since I can order it for 1 person unlike other restaurants. I thought it was decent. Ample portion. Scampi is cut up shrimp added to the standard risotto with fish flavored sauce. I thought it was good. Maybe not authentic enough but I researched the other restaurants and they are about the same. Like all other restaurants they charge for bread as a cover fee. I would avoid the spaghetti with butter sauce. It's what it's called so nothing special about it. The next table ordered the grilled fish. This was quite a show. They present it in a platter then transfer it to the 2 dinner plates. They remove the fish bones and dish out the fillet. The left overs (bones) gets tossed with salt/pepper and they pour the fish juice over the fillet.

I found it hard to find a nice quiet spot on the Murano and Burano islands except on this small Mazzorbo island next to Burano, connected by a bridge The restaurant is one where locals escape to in their weekends. They hop on the boat, jump off at the Mazzorbo stop, have lunch and go back to Venice. It has a nice garden with tables both in the sun and in the shadow. They have a daily menu, but not the typical tourist menu, which is nice and really value for money. The food and wine is good, prices OK, coffee excellent, the location excellent.

The dining room is a living gallery -- walls packed with hundreds of paintings and sketches gifted by patrons over a century. Among them: cartoons of Ernest Hemingway in a hilariously manic duck-hunting scene -- and his signature even adorns their guestbooks. We ordered the legendary "risotto digò" (go‑fish risotto) -- a creamy, umami-packed delight. No cream; just perfectly cooked rice in a deeply flavored fish broth made the texture silky and indulgentTruly, risotto that feels like history on a plate. "A taste of history and tradition" is no exaggeration -- this dish and entire atmosphere are one-of-a-kind. From four generations of love to the art-lined walls, every detail made our meal "unique and awesome."

As a vegetarian, I was afraid I wouldn't get to try any cicchetti as it typically contains meat, or I'm charged the same price for cheese alone. Trattoria de Romano has a variety of cicchetti that ranges in price depending on the ingredients. There was a great variety of vegetable based options, each for only €1.50. I tried the pomodoro, the asparagus cream, the pumpkin cream, and the artichoke cream. The pumpkin cream was my absolute favorite as it was sweet and smooth, but with the pumpkin flavor strong and authentic, not fake or sugary. The artichoke was my second favorite, followed by the asparagus and pomodoro. Pomodoro was delicious and bright, the tomatoes covered in garlic and basil, but it was my own bad for getting a less unique choice, which is why it is listed last. For my beverage, of course, I chose a spritz, a Spritz Bitter, which was a wonderful complement and much larger than others I have ordered, without being watered down either! Service was quick and kind, even giving me recommendations (which has been rare in Italy haha) Stop by and try a few bites!

We had a great day so far and then fate decided to screw that up. We went to Al Vecio Pipa because it looked nice and had air conditioning. The restaurant was NOT busy (I can see why now) and we asked for a seat. The man in black in the photograph sat us and asked what we would like. We told him we would have some drinks and that we weren't hungry as we just had lunch. He quickly snatched our menus from our hands and told us the bar was down the street. Now if It was just me - I would of just rolled my eyes and took my money elsewhere. However, my wife was with me and where I'm from you don't talk to a lady like that. We stood up to leave and I told him sternly he was very rude and he proceeded to cuss me out in Italian. I turned around and took a picture of the restaurant and the waiter for clarity. He's the one in the black shirt with the look of a lonely life on his face. We left and spent $500 elsewhere. Avoid this place at all costs!

Now onto the less good stuff: Everyone here other than us seemed to have gotten good service. Not sure what rubbed the man wrong about us but we never got our dessert and he kinda just threw stuff on our table as he walked by. My husband's lasagna was totally cold on the inside. They have tables outside but then won't let you sit at them which is odd. They also kept saying they only opened two weeks ago, but they have signs for awards from the early aughts in the window and google reviews from years and years ago. Overall this place just doesn't make sense to me and watching several other tables get their meals and checks and leave that arrived way after us was just not great. The food was good, but the restaurant was somewhat dirty. I dropped something on the floor and found the floor was caked with dirt and debris. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place.
