If you didn't know that there was an outside seating area, you would totally miss it. It is located down a walkway beside the restaurant. The employees were all very friendly and they spoke great English. It truly felt like they all worked together to provide an amazing experience. There was also an English menu. Much appreciated. I ordered the fried mozzarella ball in homemade tomato sauce. It was yummy. I am a lover of caprese salads and this was a unique twist. There are several pages of different pizzas so I decided that just be the way to go. Oh my goodness. Such a great decision. I ordered a pizza with ham, Gorgonzola cheese and fresh mushrooms. So delicious. The sauce had great flavor and the Gorgonzola gave it a nice flavor. I would so recommend this place. I will be craving it and look forward to returning soon.

The best pizza of our lives. Incredibly friendly staff. We will dream about this place for years.read more

We walked inside and were given a choice of which table to sit at between two tables, which was cool. I looked at the Menù. The Menù stated Servizio / Service 12%. From the Amari section, we got a Limoncello for € 5,00. From the Vino della casa section, a Calice di vino Rosso/Bianco was € 6,50. It was a Glass of White or Red wine. I chose Bianco. From the Pizza section, I got a PROSCIUTTO for € 10,00. It was Pomodoro, mozzarella, prosciutto cotto. The Limoncello had a crisp flavor. It was awesome. The vino was good. It was pleasant to sip on throughout my visit. The Pizza was served cut into slices. It was tasty. The service was solid. I didn't have any issues. Overall, this place was a great stop. I left feeling satisfied. I would go again if I'm in the area. Date of visit: 28/03/25

The waiter is very friendly and invite us to have lunch, and menu price look reasonable so let's go for it. We ordered clam and mussels. So amazing and yummy, especially the soup!

We were in Venezia for vacation recently and tried to dine out of the main San Marco tourist area…read moreas much as possible to try to get the most unique Venice experience and La Colonna was an amazing find! For dinner in peak season, try to make a reservation as the restaurant is very small. We arrived before our reservation time and were seated immediately inside and greeted warmly by the restaurant owner. We ordered a bottle of wine to start (most under 20 Euros for a 75 ML bottle). For appetizers we ordered the cheese with honey for 13 Euros, absolutely amazing! We also combined this with the local olive oil and fresh bread brought to the table to start as well. For our second course we chose two pastas, the Penne Alla Amatriciana (I think it was around 12 Euros), and the Spaghetti Alla Carbonara (I think it was around 12 Euros as well). Both had extremely fresh homemade ingredients and were out of this world and extreme attention to care in the preparation. For our entree we split the breaded pork chop (I think it was around 20 Euros), including a side of potatoes (similar to the steak fries that you would see in the U.S.) The service was absolutely amazing and we loved dining alongside the owner and his family and meeting the cat that also lives at the restaurant and comes by to greet you during the meal as well. It truly was like you were dining at the home of the owner and is a must try if you are in Venice!

During our recent ski trip to Italy, we realized a week ahead that we'll be in Venice for…read moreValentines day! That's a pretty awesome realization, but we also didn't have reservation and didn't know where to go. Again, a nice problem to have. Since my partner is not a huge fan of seafood, we found Bitta as a top option. We called and were lucky enough to find a reservation later in the evening. Upon arrival, the woman was on the phone with someone making a reservation in April! Which was a pretty assuring sign that it's going to be a good night :) We were seated promptly and given menus. There were so many good options, but we decided to go with the beef tarare, ragu Bolognese and the duck. And a bottle of wine for good luck! Overall, the food was incredible. After a long day of travel, we inevitably are every bite/too much, but NO regrets. The ambiance is super cozy and homey, the service is warm and the food is excellent!

It used to be a grumpy old lady, Marisa. I don't know if she's deceased now or just too old but some of her a-hole descendants have taken over and they're just jerks. My favorite is this autistic guy who screamed at a French couple bc they didn't speak any Italian. Called them deficienti to their faces. Then he lost his s*** at the young waiter who gave us a dish of fritto misto after waiting for an hour or so even tho the plate was supposed to go to another table. He went postal, screaming & swearing until another relative had to intervene. Plus side, the fish is fresh and there's lots of it. But not worth it for the abuse

It is well worth the detour! It is a family run restaurant, so there is a limited menu and options.

We had plate after plate of seafood, ranging from octopus, fish, clams, starfish, clams, calamari, and shrimp. Each was prepared a little differently and seasoned in it's unique way.
