    Prosciutto and shaved melon
    Jan M.

    Buongiorno! Jan and Fran took an Italian vacation to Venice, and boy did we have a ball, pumpkin!! After more than a few aperol spritz, we stumbled down some Venice alleys to come upon the quaint and inviting Calice. A cheerful bubbly fellow greeted us and took us up to the second floor, where Fran gasped and quickly ordered some Bellinis! Off to the races these hangry gals went with prosciutto and shaved melon, & caprese salad. Fran was looking to find her Leonardo, so she went light with veggies, but you know Jan better than that... bacon bucatini with another brewski! Until next time, sugar! Ciao! xoxo, Jan

    Delicious pizza restaurant in the heart of town. Order at the counter and then sit down. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The prices are reasonable. And most importantly, the pizza is delicious! They feature pizza by the slice and made to order. Everything is on display. They have a few outdoor seats and lots of seats inside and upstairs.

    This is easily one of the best value restaurants near St. Mark's Square. Earlier in the trip, I needed to wait for a group in the area and went to Quadri, which is elegant but outrageously priced. Twelve euros for a cup of tea. The historic Caffe Florin is even worse, but has historic value. The food here isn't life-changing but there's s good selection of pizza, paella and tapas. I had two items and a soda for 13.5. The stuffed zucchini was the best. Table seating upstairs. Their sign is small, dark and easy to miss. Look for the Casa Nova Hotel, it's right there on the other side.

    We went to this place twice because the food was pretty good and the price was decent. It is open all day and night, which makes it easy for those who are still adjusting to the time zone and don't eat during typical lunch or dinner periods. I'm not sure why others had a terrible experience. The staff who helped us were very friendly and spoke to us in both Italian and English as we tried our best to speak in our basic Italian. We'll likely try this place again if we need a quick and simple bite. Grazie!

    Quality Italian Food My group came in confused, we only saw one table and a small buffet of food. We went upstairs to many more tables and got seated immediately. Our waiter was very nice and explained everything we wanted to know about the menu. We selected three dishes which were all good. The first dish was some sort of potato pizza which I had never seen before but it was fine. Then there was an artichoke and ham pizza which was also good, just nothing special. Then there was a plate of ham and cheese which was MASSIVE. It could feed more than two people. The reason this place lost a star is because at the end we waiting upwards of 30 minutes to get our bill when the house was mostly empty. I though they forgot about us! Overall, good food and drinks but prepare to come here and eat leisurely. -zo I would like to make a disclaimer that this was my experience, yours could be different.

    For a casual lunch spot in Venice close to San Marco square - this was a good spot. We had low expectations based on the location and some of the reviews - but honestly, the pizza was better than expected. I also ordered the beef carpaccio with arugula and Parmesan which was also good. If you end up getting lost near San Marco square and all the designer shops, this place works for lunch at pretty reasons prices (13 euro for a whole pizza).

    When you see not one, but TWO gondola drivers eating at a restaurant, you know you're in the right place! The food is super reasonably priced with tons of selections to either order from display or off the menu. Pastas are 9€ and up. I ordered cabanara. Yum!!!! Ask for parmesan cheese if you like. Servers were super friendly and spoke English. There is no cover charge or service fee to eat. Has wine and draft beer. At 6pm there is waiter service upstairs and a different menu than what we had at lunch. Would definitely recommend- come and check this place out!!!!!

    Pescaso crudo y pulpo. Assortment of raw fish and amazing octopus and potatoes! Really good and a ton of food for what you pay.

    We were staying literally across the street from here at hotel Casanova and decided to go in after a long ass day. Food looked good and they have 2 levels so the was plenty of sitting. Fun ambience and great table side service. There was one particular server by the name of Gino that really waited on us hand and feet. He was funny, engaging and had very good recommendations. Honestly he made us feel super welcomed and was so much fun we came here every night for a bite and night cap. Gino, thank you for making us feel so welcomed and all the great service! Highly recommend this place.

    This cafe covers Italian gourmet foods in all ranges, from pizza pasta, to meat balls and fish filets serve in hot and colds. Their coffee is only a bit an Euro over. Just during the meal time the staffs are little bit rough due to the high demand. As I return for coffee in the low peek time, they are cool and more accommodation.

    Foods are good!! Have many options of foods and drinks. Design of the restaurant is also good. Enjoy our diner and the atmosphere here!! Near St. Marco square.

    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.
