We were staying at the Hotel Ai Reali and saw the Michelin plaque for the restaurant located inside of the hotel. Granted it is on the Michelin recommended list but it does not have a particular distinction. However, I've come to expect that these restaurants are continuing to strive for the elusive star and would still be top notch. Alas, the place fell short. The decor was obviously dated but not in a luxurious, lets preserve it way; it was stale and stiff. The service was average at best. The sommelier would constantly walk away while finishing his commentary (which might've actually been a first) while the service was generally pretty slow and not as attentive as you'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber and standing. We were refilling our own water and had to flag them down to speed up the food a bit as it had already been over 2 hours and we still had dessert left. We opted for the 6 course tasting menu and wine pairing and the food was above average. The highlights were the quail, the pasta, and mango sorbet dessert. I'd highly recommend coming here and ordering a la carte for those specific dishes to save yourself from a super lengthy meal and from the meh dishes. I'd say the price point is as you'd expect for a Michelin guide restaurant in Venice but not honestly not as bad as it could be. Excellent location in Rialto close to the bridge and the main shopping area. read more

Elegant fine dining restaurant located within a hotel right next to the canal. The food was excellent. We tried the 8 course tasting menu which had a good selection of items. All of the dishes were solid, with several standout. The amouse bouche and pre-dessert passionfruit gelée were all excellenr. The only small issue was that some of the members of our party thought the pasta was a bit too al dente (the waiter offered to have the dish re-cooked but we declined). Service was also very attentive. I definitely recommend trying one of the tasting course menus if you enjoy a good food experience! read more

We stayed at the Hotel Ai Reali with family. At check in the attendant mentioned the in hotel restaurant being in the Michelin guide. We made reservations for our last night in Venice. It was an excellent last dinner for our vacation. Four of us had the 8 course tasting menu which was long and filling. The chef surprised us with a few different appetizers and surprise desserts as well. The entire experience was excellent. The few tables, dim lighting, and architectural character created an intimate setting. Servers were friendly and funny. The food was brilliant - beef tartare, fried sardine, ravioli, sea bass, quail, steak - all of it finely prepared and presented. I thought it was a good value compared to tasting menus at other Michelin guide restaurants. read more

The tasting menu is a long but delicious meal (as they generally are). The plating and actual serving dishes were unique. I enjoyed many of the dishes but in particular was a bold and spicy shrimp and spaghetti dish that lingers in my mind. Our table location was not great but I will over look it in service of the food and healthy wine pours. read more

This restaurant, found in the Ai Reali hotel in Venice, may well have had the very best food we've ever experienced, in quality, taste, creativity and presentation. My husband and I have enjoyed many nice restaurants, and we were both astounded at the level of its quality and perfection. We just can't say enough good about this restaurant. Also, our waiter, Gianluca, was exceptional. He was very professional and yet warm and friendly, and took the most excellent care of us. If we were writing this review on a one through ten scale, we would give it a 12! read more

The perfect ending to our vacation in Venice. The food was out of this world. Course after course of perfection. Albeit, we didn't do the courses since we didn't want to be limited; just a cornucopia of excellence. Service was impeccable; highly accommodating and polished. Ambiance was elegant and refined- reminiscent of Daniel. Out the door bill of 700+ euros but well worth it; but then again who is counting? read more

Amazing food and service. This is a dining experience, not just food. Our experience was for a special Valentine's meal created by the chef. It is my birthday and dining here was a surprise. The mall was 4.5 and was one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had. Every single course was visually stunning and tasted amazing. I can't even describe how good it was, you have to try it if you are in Venice. I know I'll be going again when I visit Venice again read more

Ristorante Alle Corone - world-class mastery of flavor and cooking technique for all Recently (29/6/2023), my wife and I and two other couples dined at Ristorante Alle Carone, located in the exclusive Hotel Ai Reali in Castello. The ambience is contemporary, relaxed, and intimate, limited to about 6 tables. We savored the six-course tasting menu. Highlights included an eclectic collection of cicchetti (dabs of whipped pecorino and fig on crunchy polenta chips; tasty cheese sculpted as a bright red tomato on a bed of polenta; cuttlefish crudo); tender, seared swordfish marinated in spices, sour cream, and pomegranate; fresh, whole squid stuffed with cod, creamed potatoes, and carletti (sweet, mild and fruity); hearty spaghetti with octopus ragù, garlic and chili pepper; delectable steamed turbot fillet, covered in a Cantabrian anchovy mayonnaise (dreamy umami flavor), garnished with radish and tatsoi; and tender, roasted pork belly with snow peas, kumquats and chives mayonnaise, which lent a sweet, salty, and citrusy flavor. Kudos to Chef Mauro Catiello, who graciously visited our table, and his dedicated staff. With his culinary artistry, mastery of flavor and cooking technique, I envision a Michelin star in his future. We look forward to our next visit. read more

Stepped into this tiny bar connected to the Hotel Ai Reali, where I am staying, for tea and cookies. Great service, simplistic yet stylish, dimly lit - perfect place to hide from the rain and crowds by yourself to relax and rehydrate. read more

We stayed at the hotel from 27-29 April. We had complimentary welcome drinks (on day 2 instead of day 1) in the bar at 6.30pm. We allowed these from 6 to 7pm. The bar was empty, but it was a lovely place to sit and relax. Our view was of the canal and gondolas passing by. The barman was friendly. We were served prosecco and some bar snacks. On certain days, I think Monday's, Thursday's and another day they have entertainment in the form of a pianist. Luckily it was Thursday so at 7pm we had the company of a talented Italian pianist. He played some classic songs I knew and some other Italian songs. By this time there were a few more guests seated in the bar. It was not considered peak time for a lot of visitors in Venice. The batman said in a few more weeks time, the hotel would be busier. When we walked past the bar after dinner, we heard the pianist singing whilst he played, but we were too tired to sit and enjoy. On our last day, we waited in the hotel lobby for a while before leaving. We had been out the whole day walking and ran out of water. We went to the bar and asked for tap water, which he was happy to serve with ice, which was 'just the ticket' and we also helped ourselves to the bar snacks which consisted of olives, peanuts and corn kettle. read more

This restaurant was inside a very nice hotel. It's a smaller restaurant so make sure to you make a reservation. If you are staying at a hotel, definitely have your hotel make the reservation for you, as the self option via their website was not as trust worthy. Dinner was great! You do not get large portions here please see my tips below regarding this as I do not judge European restaurants on portion size. Their portions are different, I'm just telling you for basis on how hungry you may be! Often you will see first and second courses on Italian menus. This would be a place to do a couple courses to feed your soul. I had the ravioli with broccoli and anchovies. It was just the best! The broccoli sauce was magnificent. My pallet was thoroughly pleased! Cost of dinner here was a bit ore expensive. We also ordered a bottle of red wine which was perfect. Not bitter, not dry and just a touch of sweet. In all we spent around 100 euros and we only had one dinner selection a piece. It could become more costly depending on what you order. Also feel free to dress up a bit! It's classy. Few tips to keep in mind: 1. This was a nice little restaurant with smaller portion size. (I say that because portion sizes are often different in each country, so if you are coming from the states, do not expect large portion sizes as we often see in restaurants from the US. Judging it based on that would be unfair). 2. Something else to consider, in Italy, you cannot judge service on speed. You are not rushed in restaurants to order, eat and pay. Often they will not ask if you ready for your check until you ask. They also do not check on tables as frequently as seen in the US. Judging the restaurant on that aspect would also be unfair. Enjoy the experience! 3. A service charge for each restaurant is automatically added. read more

My partner had booked a table in this restaurant for my 70th birthday treat, and what a treat it turned out to be. I had read up on websites about this restaurant and decided it needed a suit and tie because it was CLASS. Having just about got into my suit after Italian dining of the previous nights, that was an enormous task, we wandered through the streets of Venice to arrive at the hotel in which the restaurant resided. Deciding to have a drink before dinner we entered the bar to be greeted by the barman. Ordering a martini and a caiprinha it arrived a few minutes later with small nibbles of smoked salmon and cream cheese. Perfect. The bar bill needs to be paid as the bar is not part of the restaurant. but with the hotel. No problem. Entering the restaurant we were shown to a table by the windows overlooking the canal with gondolas passing by frequently. The menu is easy to read with a selection which is 'small' but adequate. This is necessary because of the quality of the food. No way could you reach the high quality with a larger menu. The food was exquisite, but I do wonder how Italians can get through four courses, we only managed two. The wine list is extensive and the prices vary from reasonable to expensive. It oozed, as I have said, Class. Service was professional but unintrusive. It seemed as if those guys were in your head and read what you needed. Loved the place. Finally, thank you all for making my 70th Birthday something really special. read more

One of the worst dining experiences we had while we were in Venice. It's not that someone else won't love this restaurant, but our server was truly mediocre and the food we ordered was merely good. My spouse thought the decor was stiff, and while it the interior was certainly high-quality, it lacked visual warmth. read more

I came here for my husband's birthday. Service was pretty bad for a luxurious place like this. Food was okay, there really was nothing special. I did expect more since there were good reviews, but other smaller restaurants in Venice was much better food and service wise. I don't recommend this place for a special occasion. read more

While on vacation, food is very important. After reading several reviews for this restaurant, we made it a point to go to this restaurant. The venue is very nice and upscale which was inviting. However, the service was not up to par. They were short staffed, wine glasses has left of smudge, our food was presented to the table next to us(they were finishing their last drink and had already paid. Food was presented nicely however taste did not live up to the presentation. Instead of the tasting menu, we decided to do a la carte, four courses each. While ordering, assuming small portions, the waiter never mentioned that perhaps that would be too much food as full size items were served. Due to lack of staff, it took up almost 3.5 hours of our evening for mediocre food. We almost wanted to cancel the last two courses however thought it might improve. Go for the ambience, not for the food. I would like to hope they were having a bad evening. read more

We had a magical afternoon on Christmas Day! They seated our party of 14 in the wine cellar. We had the 5 course dinner with wine pairing. They were able to alter the dishes to accomodate our Gluten Free & Vegetarian members. The food, wine & service was absolutely amazing. Truly memorable! Thank you! read more

We ate Xmas eve dinner here. I saw the menu on-line and appreciated the choices, so made a reservation. What I wasn't expecting was the best meal of my life. Although they don't (????) mention it they are MIchelin rated and absolutely deserve it. read more

My mom and I had dinner here to celebrate my birthday. Food was of excellent quality and service was mostly good. The selection of house made breads was delicious. We ordered the following: appetizer of "Pumpkin pie with mountain cheese fondue and fried sage", pasta courses of "Lemon-scented linguine with prawns and zucchini flowers" and "Homemade ravioli stuffed with duck and ricotta cheese, chestnut sauce and black truffle", main course of "Pistachio-crusted turbot fillet with cauliflower cream and sauteed baby spinach", and a tiramisu for dessert. All of the dishes were fantastic with the exception of the tiramisu, which came served in a martini class and was mostly whipped cream. Even so, this place would rate 5 stars if not for the service aspect. Our waiter copped an attitude and acted snooty when we indicated we would be sharing our appetizer and main course. He reluctantly brought a plate so that we could do so. I'm just saying we are 2 women, we can only eat so much, and we wanted to sample as mush as we could from the menu. Prices were high but in accordance with the quality and presentation of the meal. Definitely worth a stop on your trip to Venice! read more
