Date of visit: May 28, 2025…read more The rule for tourist towns such as Venice: Avoid any place that has pictures on the menu outside, folks waving you in, or giant signs outside. Al Garzoti doesn't have any of these things, with their name only appearing inside on the bar. Service is nothing to write home about; our waiter who looked like a young Nick Jonas, minus the charm, barely interacted with us, but the food he brought us was wonderful! If you've already had some pizza while in Italy, then go with a calzone instead. They are large and a great value, too. Note the ingredients first, though; Italians do not like substitutions. I tried a pezzo di pizze with ham and that too, was great!

I visited Venice in early May of 2025. I was craving pizza and found this spot. It's quaint and…read morelovely inside. They have a posting that says if you want fast food, this is not the place. I definitely agreed. It takes time to make your meals.. The food was phenomenal. I got a pizza that had pears. I cannot remember the exact name of the pizza, but it was Delicious. My son got one with tomatoes and mozzarella. He did not share one piece of his deliciousness because it was that good! . A must go when ever in Venice.

Oh. My. God. I think about this place on the daily, genuinely. We were only in Venice for 4 days…read morebut we made sure to come here twice because it was so good. The seafood is absolutely delicious! We got stuffed squid, sardines, the fried seafood mixed plate, the octopus, and an eggplant dish as well. Unfortunately I am an uneducated American and do not recall the specific names of these dishes, but this place had so many amazing options, if you're a fan of seafood you cannot go wrong. It's a small, quant place that was cute and had a lot of charm! Venice overall is such a beautiful city, there wasn't a time during our stay where I didn't enjoy the views, buildings, etc. the servers/chefs were also really nice and helpful! Amazing experience and I truly dream about the sardines.

The pumpkin flan was a true experience of sweet and savoriness. I couldn't stop eating the ratatouille; it was such a delicious treat. I was able to have a conversation with the chef after our meal, and she encouraged my excitement to experiment and try my hand at some of these dishes at home. I wish I lived in Venice, so I could have La Zucca regularly. They only had one reservation spot for the days we were in Venice, so I definitely recommend making reservations ahead of time.

My friend and I had an early dinner here- by Italian standards- as it was close to our hotel. Wow!…read moreWhat a great choice! We were seated outside with a lovely view of the grand canal. I could smell the beautiful flowers lining the terrace. We started the meal with Aperol Spritzes as usual and ended with the most potent limoncello ever! We shared a cheese board and I had the mushroom ravioli. We both thoroughly enjoyed all of our food. Truly great food and service in a gorgeous setting!

The pasta dishes were very good and they had extensive seafood options. The frutti de mare was very delicious. My wife had the filet mignon. It was great as well. The cocktail drinks need a little work. The bartender could not make a vodka martini and it came out like a vodka soda with lots of vermouth in a short glass even though they had all the ingredients and tools to make it. Overall, a great restaurant for seafood and a fantastic patio area along the canal.

We split the lasagna, ravioli, and seitan roast, which turned out to be about the right amount of food for two moderately hungry people. The dishes were all well-executed but a bit underwhelming like we find most Italian food. We're not huge on Italian food, but pledged to give it a fair chance on this trip, so my overall rating is generous. Friendly, hospitable and quick service.

The restaurant is nice and service and food delivery is very quick; portions are generous as well. we ordered the gnocchi and the mushroom ravioli. both were decent in terms of portion but needed a bit more flavor - the food was a bit bland and did not showcase the flavor of the ingredients. out of the two, the gnocchi had a better flavoring it's a decent place but would only recommend if you are in the area
