Great food. Service was great. Everyone nice. Traditional italian restaurant. Definitely a gem!

Excellent. My favorite meal in Italy -- although to be fair, that was mainly because of my extremely charming dining companion. I did thoroughly enjoy the seafood pasta. I asked for the house wine, but it had gone very bad. They brought me something else that was nice. There was a miraculous dessert -- lemon sorbet mixed with prosecco. I keep meaning to try recreating it at home. A very memorable meal in a lovely location. read more

Walked past this restaurant a few times when sight seeing around Piazza San Marco. It was full the first night we tried to eat here and we were turned away. We tried to make a reservation, but they do not take reservations. The waiter was very nice and suggested we come back tomorrow before 7pm or after 9pm. We returned the next day at about 9:30pm. The restaurant was still packed and we had to wait 10 minutes to be seated. Started with vegetable soup, amazing. I have never liked a vegetable soup so much. Then pastas: Spaghetti in bolognese, good Spinach/mozzarella tortellini, delicious For the main course I ordered lamb. Also good. The tortellini was the star though. The house wine was good at $5 a glass, I could drink a whole bottle of it. Already full, but I had to try the tiramisu. The best I've had. I licked the bowl clean even after the large meal. Complimentary limoncello to end the meal. I would absolutely eat here again. Prego read more

Great meal after visiting St. Mark's square. Delicious food, beautiful ambience, friendly service, and clean bathrooms. The waiters brought my partner and me bread, AND they even brought us small plates for olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping, since we suspect they could tell we were Americans haha. My partner ordered the spaghetti Bolognese, and I had the squid ink spaghetti - both were superb and reasonably priced. Recommend! read more

Da Cherubino - Italian Near Me - Venezia, VE

Best dinner in Venice. We've been to a couple of restaurants in the city and nothing compare to this. Ordered the Chianti Riserva and enjoyed the taste of Tuscany with our meal. As appetizer we got the "cicheti" which is a veneto region typical dish, and it was amazingly good. As main plate we had "mama mia", and seafood pasta. Both were incredible. The service was outstanding, they even told us the closing time before we ordered so we could decide to stay or not. Even though that they never rushed us. We will definitely come again when visiting Venice and would recommend to anyone around. This is one of the hidden gems of Venice. read more

4.5 is a perfect rating what a great find. service and food quality were absolutely top-notch, especially since it's so close to San Marco. I expected more of a touristy experience. the cuttlefish ink pasta was fantastic, and the grouper was cooked perfectly. their house aperitif was prosecco and cannabis (!) and it tasted delicious. our best meal in Venice (so far) read more

Yummy food. Pasta and pizza were just "good." People and service = A+++ Homemade food. Atmosphere. Relaxed environment. Tiramisu was really excellent! Better than everywhere else we tried during our Italy trip so far. Mussels were PHENOMENAL (Note! We live next to the ocean, I catch my own fish, and we both love seafood.) read more

We had our first dinner in Italy here! We ordered the antipasto as a starter which was delicious. My husband and I both ordered pastas- crab fettuccine and arriabiata penne. The penne was a bit too al dente for my taste. The house wine was only 5 euros for a glass. It was a great meal to start off our trip! read more

I've tried a few of the five star rating places on yelp but didn't think they worth the rating. This place is literally a five star place if you're now used to the service style of Venice. The spagetti mama Mia is a must try. Lamb chop was good but the spagetti was too hard to top. read more

Just ok experience for us.. sat by the window at night and it was blazing hot (assume from all the bright lights). Wine list was the strangest we've ever seen.. no vintages or wineries listed! The food was average. Overall, strange and uncomfortable experience. read more

Da Cherubino - Wine list.. only prices and type (grape), no wineries or vintages.. odd!!! - Italian Near Me - Venezia, VE

GREAT service. Real nice. All three if our dishes were super. Seafood pasta means SEAFOOD pasta. Not to bad in price but I find Italy is high. read more

Wonderful staff, delicious food. Would highly recommend. The zuppa de pesce was the highlight of so many highlights (including the house wine and scallops). My son gives it 5 stars--best fish he's ever had. I'd give it 4.5, if we could do half star ratings. read more

We ate at Ristorante Trattoria Cherubino on 17 May 2015. It was delightful. Tripadvisor gave this restaurant a good rating. However, when using google maps to find it, we were directed to a different restaurant, repeatedly. Very strangely, when using google maps, results are directed to Osteria Enoteca San Marco - this makes me think there is some google keywod shenanigan going on. If you end up in front of Osteria Enoteca when using google maps and you want to go to Trattoria Cherubino, then while facing Enoteca, turn to the right, go to the end of the alley, and turn left, Cherubino will be on your left. We got there around 6 p.m. and were given a table right by the window. It was very romantic. We got a very good red wine, Valpolicella Ripasso, 2011, for 34 €. We ordered the cicchetti (or as the Venetians spell it, cichetti) as an appetizer and we both ordered the seafood spaghetti. We were both very pleased with the meal. The cicchetti gives you a little bit of everything. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and the owner was friendly. read more

Very friendly staff. Excellent service. Mixed seafood pasta was fabulous and the wine list is very good and reasonable. Our waiter helped us pick a wonderful choice with no pressure. Prices good for Venice especially this close to st Marc's read more

In Venice close to everything out of the crowd. Really recommend good authentic Italy food. Great pasta, fish and pizza. Very cozy and relax after a long day walking around the city. read more

Very nice meal. The house red (28€) (14€)for a half is ok and tended to be on the expensive side compared to others. The food was excellent as the new wife and I shared a shrimp and arugula risotto for two. Was told by the waiter it takes about 25 minutes to make. Excellent that means good risotto and I love a good risotto. Also had the filet with mushroom sauce. Tremendous creamy mushroom sauce with chucks of mushrooms over a 10oz sirloin. Very good but ask the to cook more on the well side. ( I love a medium rare steak and their medium was still a little undercooked). So recap. Excellent choice, somewhat reasonable should be able to get a seat. read more

Walking through the alley and spotted this place and decided to stop in for pizza and a beer. Although that's not a special meal, the wife and I really enjoyed it! The food was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We are not staying close by but coming back for dinner tonight! read more

Very nice location and small restaurant ambiance. We had the sea bass and the Venetian liver, both of which were great. Service was very pleasant. This made for a nice, relaxed dinner. read more

Ate lunch at Al Cherubino on September 10th, 2015 during a 2-day trip to Venice with my brother. Staff were very courteous and efficient, and the food we ordered was very good. Less crowded feel than other restaurants in the vicinity of Piazza San Marco. The owner was also on site while we were there, and ran our bill for us. I told him of the great reviews I had seen about the restaurant, and he was pleased to hear this. Would recommend this restaurant! read more

Very friendly staff, service doesn't take too long, food tastes good! We got the rizotto with mushrooms and we can recommend it :). The menu could improve by adding more vegetarian options, maybe, but in general great place! read more

We had some excellent food and service during our stay in Italy and this particular restaurant stands out. Excellent pasta, excellent seafood, excellent wine and the service was outstanding. We enjoyed it so much, we went back for dinner :). read more

so first of all this is a restaurant! not a cheese burger place! for the US chill out and take the time to eat! count one hour per dish. this is Europe you eat and talk and enjoy life! The place is well staffed they speak French, English and German as well as Italian! The plates are large by European standard but delicious! fresh as can be! the Mozarella is really fresh! it s a relax place with excellent air conditionning and great service. Try the pasta's dish (we tasted 9 out of the14 available) and the mussels! The ice cream are a nice finish as well. the wine selection is nice as they have alf or full bottles! A definite yes to go back since we did it twice! read more

We followed Yelp reviews and went to this restaurant. Food was OK, a bit expensive (15€ for a small caprese salad). Worst thing was the service, we felt pushed outside, we received the bill without asking so we just left then. I guess we did not order enough to be considered correctly. Our worst restaurant in Venise. read more

Based on reviews here and elsewhere, we selected this place early on New Year's Eve. The place displayed a special, limited menu with jacked up prices, but it was OK with us. With all the places with bad food in town, we were ready to pay a little more to have a good meal. The waiter informs us that we can only get what's on the menu, no exceptions. We are traveling with two small kids and there is no pasta dish with tomato sauce, only white sauce and lasagna. We ask whether we could have the spaghetti with a tomato sauce for the kids, but we are informed rather rudely that this isn't possible, because "the cook only cooks what's on the menu tonight". Notice: we are native italian speakers. A bit taken aback at this point, we decide to accommodate and we change the order for the kids to lasagna (hoping they will eat it), and proceed to order one appetizer, two main dishes (around 26-30 euro each), water, and a bottle of wine. Note that side dishes are an additional charge (8 euro!). At this point the waiter tells us that we MUST order two side dishes, as each adult "needs" to order at least 50 euro. This isn't written anywhere on the menu. So we left. With this kind of attitude we won't be returning. read more

Closest Yelp reviewed restaurant that was nearby us so we checked it out and once again our fellow yelpers had it right. Saturday night at 8 PM we scored a table for 4 with no wait but restaurant was busy and not huge with seating for maybe 25ish people? So would recommend reservations if you're not nearby to peek in. With 2 hungry teenagers portions were big and flavorful. Pasta Carbonara, Fettuccini with crab, Spaghetti Mama Mia and Lasagna with meat sauce were all finished with a little room to share the delicious house made tiramisu. Along with the baked scallops starter we shared, side order of french fries, 4 sodas and a big bottle of sparkling water the total price for our family of 4 was about 120 Euro. Service was excellent and English menus available. read more

Best service we had in Venice! In a crowded, touristy town this place was awesome! Cute, cozy Italian vibe- great wine, bread and appetizers

This place has great food, a wide selection, and is family owned. They were friendly and even had the owner waiting on the tables and making sure things went smoothly. The prices were very reasonable as well. Only thing bad I have to say wasn't even their fault.There was a snafu with a man that was unhappy about the potatoes (chips) and made a bit of a scene but they handled it very well. (Don't go to an Italian restaurant if you want fresh chips...who would have thought it...) read more

We had a fantastic evening here tonight! Although the restaurant was packed and we did not make reservations, the owner graciously made a place for us. The ambiance is very cozy and romantic. The restaurant is actually quite large, but still gives you an intimate feel. We had the king crab pasta which was amazing!!!!! This was the best dish I had in all of Italy over the past 10 days. We also got the seafood mixed grill for two which was extremely fresh. The fish is bone in, so make sure you know how to clean a fish. The prices are reasonable and the portions are filling. We loved it here and would most certainly come again! read more

Da Cherubino - Crab pasta.... Amazing!!!!! - Italian Near Me - Venezia, VE

Wow... get the zuppa di pesce. So good that I wanted a second serving. Came for dinner with a small group on Sunday evening and was seated promptly. Service there was excellent. Waiter was attentive and each course was well timed. The food was very good. I'm usually not too impressed by Italian food since it's just pasta that I feel I can make at home, but this place I really enjoyed. read more

One of the best restaurants I have tried in Venice. The price is a little high but with the quality of food, it is worth it. Highly recommend the fish soup and homemade tiramisu! read more

Amazing! We went twice while on our trip to Venice. The eggplant parmigiana and Mama Mia spaghetti is a must! Service was incredible, highly recommended. read more

We found this place on our last night in Venice. After 10 days in Italy and having spent most of it outside of Venice, we were disappointed in the subpar food options in Venice compared to the other parts of Italy we had visited. We weren't disappointed here though! Not only was the service excellent, the food was also delicious! The best meal we had in Venice. They had the best bread we had in Venice.' We ordered for our appetizer the spicy mussels (could have used a bit more seasoning but was good), and for the entree we ordered to share the Mamma Mia Spaghetti (bolognese with meatball), clam spaghetti, and risotto with scampi and arugula. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu. It all really hit the spot and we weren't disappointed at all for our final meal! read more

Excellent lunch! We had bruschetta and seafood spaghetti. Mussels, clams, calamari, more mussels, shrimp, and a couple kinds of fish. House wine was great as well. Great service!!! read more

The food selections and service were excellent at this restaurant. Food was prepared well - a light, yet very tasty lasagna and a well prepared, not over cooked, veal liver for entrees. The salad was fresh and the wine selection very good. The attention and recommendations for our server were quite good as well. One issue was getting seated. We recommend to make a reservation. Otherwise it's first come first served for an open table. If you are told "to come back in 30 mins." it is worth waiting there for the next available table, rather than leave and coming back. read more

Tasty pizza and pasta in a nice setting, with excellent staff. The pasta was not 'out of this world,' but it was certainly worth the price and was enjoyable. I would recommend this place to other travelers. read more

Oh my god this place was really great! The staff was friendly and charismatic. I got the spaghetti alla veneto (spaghetti with with squid ink and cuttlefish) and I now fear I will never have the dish to the same caliber again. This place made my trip to Venice complete. read more

Excellent dinner and value. Not too crowded, personable waiters, English spoken here. Large portions of excellent food at moderate prices. The house Valpolicella by the glass was great. Quiet inside so you can enjoy a romantic dinner. Picture the Italian dinner scene from Lady and the Tramp. We will def come back here next time! read more

We had a very good dinner here yesterday. The house red wine was very good. We shared a delicious bruschetta appetizer with really good quality fresh tomatoes and basil. Also had gnocchi which were light as a feather and shared very good quality gelato for dessert. It was not outlandishly expensive as so many restaurants in the San Marco area are. I would definitely go back! read more
