    I read a Yelp review saying it was a hidden jewel, and then we stumbled upon it in a low- key locals' piazza. My husband had a good negroni and I the most generous grand marnier pour ever, at a low price. We split a tasty, fresh caprese sandwich. When I saw pesto genovese on the menu, we decided to bring our friends back for dinner the next night. Away from the bustle around Rialto bridge, next to a small canal, with its own gelato stand, it is a perfect place to enjoy drinks and the wonderful penne pesto, but do not skip the desserts because they were the best we have had in a long time. Our friendly server recognized us from the day before, and we enjoyed the unhurried ambiance of an open piazza filled with locals.

    Yummy desserts and coffee

    What a treat to have stumbled on this hidden gem while wandering around Venice. Husband and I had desserts, coffee, and an aperitif. This cool place is located in a piazza off the beaten path. The desserts were amazing, and the aperitif was really good and served with a side of potato chips. Such a lovely place to relax and soak in the beauty of Venice.

    Food was okay, service mediocre. It was close by, but wouldn't go again given all the other places within 100 feet of this one.

    Not that great. Encourages you to sit outside (an extra 1.5€). Super small glass of house red wine 3.50 :/

    Tasty bellinis. Great for people watching. Family owned. It was very nice when the locals stopped by and chatted with the owners

    We wandered up from the busy tourist packed Rialto and we're pleased to find a part of Venice that appears to be a living neighborhood.

    We do love Cicchetti and some bar-hopping. And this is a new place we've discovered this time…read morearound in Venice. Location is very nice, right at a pretty trendy canal, filled with lots of restaurants and bars. Right next to is an excellent gelato place. It's quite small inside with few tables, many just hang around outside - and why not, the location at the canale is a pretty spot. We did manage though to get some seats inside. Our Bulldog was very welcome here as well. The various cicchetti are presented at the counter. There are some classics of course, but also some very innovative creations. We went for the latter. There was gorgonzola with strawberry, radicchio with brie cheese, pesto topped with an anchovie and mushrooms, mashed fava beans with pulp and mashed fava with goats cheese and a cherry. All really wonderful combinations. Our favorite were the radicchio and the fava/goat cheese. Surely something to recreate back home. Staff was very friendly, we felt very welcome here. And instead of focussing on Aperol, Select and Prosecco, it's mostly about white and red wine here. And they have an excellent selection of wine. Not all cheap, but definitely worth the money. We especially loved the Pinot Nero "Terre di Giotto". A brillant cicchetti bar. Definitely a place we come back to next time in Venice.

    We wanted to try this place given the high reviews and seeing so many groups of people outside. We…read morestood in queue for a few minutes. The guy serving our wine was not friendly. Maybe he was having an off night. He asked what we wanted to try. He'd pour a tasting and then roll his eyes and wander off, bring his friends their charged phones from the back, and then just look at us. Such a shame, we had hoped for a better experience. We found many other places in this area that we loved and enjoyed their wine. Such a cool hip local area.

    Pub Santa Lucia was the only place we could find to watch the women's olympic volleyball final…read morematch in Venice that was within a 10 min walk from our hotel. (You would've thought USA vs Italy would've attracted more local attention.) SL was a tiny place, but thankfully mostly empty; we plopped ourselves down and ordered some cold beers (pilsner for me, it being a hot afternoon). They had a decent beer list here - several standard styles from the British isles. I noted they also had some locally made brews (I didn't try them) plus Guinness (a necessity for such a place). The vibe wasn't very Irish beyond the decor and dark interior. The bartender was playing some euro pop on the sound system. Snacks were offered - mostly bread rolls, small sandwiches, and cuts off some oblong pizzas. We sampled a few of the latter to go with our beers. (They were OK.) As for the volleyball, the USA got spanked. Thankfully no celebration from the other side; most of the other patrons were either Americans or Brits. And the Italian bartender didn't seem to care. It's not clear why so many previous patrons have awarded a full 5 stars for SL. (Vacation glee?) For us it met a basic need but was priced high for tourists. I'll give them three stars, plus one extra for offering the game.
