    Quaint little place. Not sure if I fell for the ol' tourist trap. I hear that it's not a good restaurant if there are people outside flagging people on the street to dine at their restaurant. Regardless, we fell for it. We were craving fried calamari and they had it on their menu. Plus it was hot, we were tired, and wanted to enjoy a nice meal outside in the shade. Service was great. The guy was nice and helpful. A little bit of an attitude, but it may just be their culture. Food was great. We shared fried calamari and it came with the fried shrimp that they're known for (forgot the official name). We ordered a bunch of pasta dishes. The portions were just enough for all of us to share and each dish was very tasty and flavorful. Great place!

    It was our first night in Italy and we were hungry. While walking from our hotel to find something to eat, we ended up dining here after seeing "free WiFi". The food was good but not memorable. I ordered the Pasta All'Amatriciana because the word "bacon" was on it, but in fact, bacon in Italy is just ham. The pasta was filling and the portion was more than enough to keep you full. Not to mention, all their dishes were decently priced. The service and their house wine was great. I'm not a wine drinker and everything pretty much taste the same for me, but their house wine did not make me pucker my lips. In fact, I ended up finishing my glass.

    One of the best steaks I've had in Italy - cooked to perfection. I really enjoyed our time with our server, Masud who took great care of us throughout the evening.

    This was my favorite spot for lasagna!!! I can seriously taste all the herbs!! I tried places in Rome and they did not compare! Husband got the Calzone, sis got the pizza..everyone seemed to enjoy their food as well! Oh but the bread was hard...dipped it in oil and not too too bad

    Reasonably priced. Service was excellent. Food was somewhat basic, but was exactly what we wanted, and tastes delicious.

    Unlike the other places where we have chosen to dine in Venice, they were not overly welcoming.

    Lots and lots of restaurants to choose from in Venice but this unassuming restaurant is a true gem…read more It's easy to miss as it's tucked in a corner right by a bridge. Once inside they have a couple tables with small window views of any gondolas passing by. We started off with a plate of lightly fried sardines topped with pickled white onions. The fry on the fish was super light and those vinegar-y onions were the perfect pairing. We cleaned that plate. The lasagna was well balanced with the meat, sauce, cheese. The squid ink pasta was chewy/al dente with a subtle touch of seafood flavors giving the cuttlefish. It was very umami but nothing too overbearing. Delicious! It's a Family business that was been around for many years. Grazie to the friendly staff and chef!

    I am so sad to give this restaurant such a poor rating after visiting many times during the last 20…read moreyears and loving it before. The jovial mood with the waiters with big personalities is gone. The menu you can find online is no longer available so you get a very limited menu to choose from--nearly entirely seafood. So if you have anyone in your party that just wants pasta with a red meat sauce or a non seafood lasagne, not available. We were a party of 8. Two people ordered the scallop appetizers. Pretty presentation on shells. 3 tiny scallops in the shells. More like an amuse bouche. Totally disappointing. The linguine with clams as an entree had clams so small you almost needed a magnifying glass to see them. Couldn't taste the clams and annoying to try to eat something so tiny , and just try to eat the pasta with all those tiny shells. The baby shrimp on polenta was actually good. But again the shrimp were like tiny hatchlings tempura battered. Tasted okay except for those that were soggy from the polenta that was very soupy. I wanted the gnocchi with crab which was on the very limited menu but no longer available. The alternative was gnocchi with a sea bass sauce which I chose but didn't like at all. The gnocchi were good but the sauce wasn't at all for me. We had to continue to ask for side dishes for the bread, butter, olive oil, salt and pepper. We will not return. Poor value for your money. Plus there is a cover charge and service included in your bill which was a surprise. Very sad to see our favorite Venetian restaurant decline so much.

    On our last evening in Venice we wanted some Crudo di Mare. Checked online and found this place…read more Reviews looked very good. So we came here for an early dinner (around 5pm), kitchen is open through! Took a nice table inside by the window. Our Bulldog was welcome as well. Staff/owner very friendly, helpful and made us feel very welcome here. Inside it's a nice, cosy atmosphere. Good selection of wine on the menu as well. For all kinds of budgets. And at the counter a nice display of all kinds of seafood. Lovely place. We've ordered the Crudo di Mare plate and Spaghetti Vongole. And a .375ml bottle of their white house wine, which turned out to be a good pairing with the seafood. Both dishes were excellent! Plenty of Vongole (clams) in the pasta dish, Spaghetti were perfectly cooked. Vongole were nice and fresh and the dish perfectly spiced (not too much, which is good). A real highlight definitely the Crudo di Mare. Two langoustines (so nice and sweet flavour), two red shrimp. scallops, tuna, swordfish, oysters and tuna tartare. All fresh, all tasty. An excellent mix of wonderful fish and seafood. Quality wise along on top with the best ones we've had so far (we love Crudo di Mare). And all is nicely presented. Really made our day, this meal here. After the meal we even got some aperitif on the house. A wonderful place. Feels very relaxed, lots of great items on the menu. And really fair prices, this is a real gem here with great value. And we will definitely be back next time in Venice. Highly recommended!

    Best cook in Venezia! Very personable! Great food! Great service!…read moreNot only was he cooking, he was visiting each table, greeting guests; Toni Clyde a large party in the "banquet room"!
