    Fantastic! The staff were warm and welcoming. We followed their recommendation for a fish platter that was the best meal we had in Venice. And the polenta with shrimp appetizer and tiramisu dessert were delicious

    Wait: none for dinner on weeknight around 8 pm Service: friendly but not able to give good information about food. Ambience: outdoor seating and indoor seating available and they both r pretty nice. It is not in the main square but in the little ally 1-2 min walk from the square Good: we ordered their tasting platter which is so so... nothing fancy. It's interesting to taste salami with winter melon though. I won't order it again but this is their recommended dish by the manager. We then tried their recommended tagliatelle with scallops and beef pasta. Their pasta was great and meat is fresh. The tiramisu is so so... Price : it is regular, not too expansive not too cheap.

    Crustacean Grill!

    Food! Maravilloso service like the 5 Star restaurant they are. Servicio de Primera! And ambiance is superb!

    Menu

    Wow, that lobster with tagliatelle was so good! Would definitely recommend. Big menu, lots of great options to choose from, friendly and attentive service. Pretty restaurant.

    Grigalia Mixta

    Best meal we've had on our Italy trip. Seafood was very fresh and food was not over salted. Grigalia Mixta was plenty of food for a family of 4.

    Caprese appetizer

    We are first-time to Venice and this restaurant had the absolute best Caprese I have ever had. My husband had the sea bass and it was amazing. Excellent wine as well.

    Sea bass and potato medley. Very good extra large capers!

    The service was great. Food was some of the best we had in Venice! The staff brought bread and water regularly.

    Grigliata Mista

    Highly recommend this restaurant! My husband and I had the Grigliata Mista by recommendation of our server, and it wound up being the best meal we had in Venice (and perhaps the best meal of our week-long trip in Italy). Both the food and service was excellent!

    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.

    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.

Upon arrival, the owner was sitting at a table drinking wine. There weren't any people dining, so we were the only ones. The servers and cooks were very attentive. We were immediately greeted and seated while our drink requests were taken. We always choose still water. Today, we decided to try a wine tasting, which included a blend of whites of reds from the region. The waiter explained in detail the type of wine, where it is made, what type of grapes it is made with, and the year it was made. All of the wines were very delicious. Italy takes great pride in their wines and rightfully so. We requested bruschetta and presciutto. We were given fresh, warm bread, which we mixed with salt, pepper, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. The bread was amazing. It had a soft, warm inside and a crunchy outside. Isn't that they way bread should be served? The bruschetta was delicious as was the presciutto. The food, wine, and service were superb. We vowed that we would return for dinner, but alas, we didn't make time to do so. This is a great restaurant!
