The Belvedere Hotel is directly across the street from the water boat taxi. Literally a 20 second walk. Also this Hotel is a 10 min walk to the Lido Beach. Tons of restaraunt's nearby (walking distance) and great bars! His hotel is also priced well. I will definitely be back!

This was my first experience with cichetti bars so I will forever love it…read more Usually we just pick a smattering of food and prosecco or one of the other pretty-good wines on the board, and find a place to sit and munch away. Really, I love this place, I do. The people are friendly, accommodating, usually drinking wine themselves (Italia!) and all that... This does have one huge drawback though - the bathrooms are located in the center of the food/bar area and boy, can you smell them. I do and will go back.... but I can see why some wouldn't for that last reason alone. The prices of course are good as with any snack bar.

The calamari was super good with the lemon zest on it. It was tender and not chewy at all. The cured salmon with lemon squeeze was also excellent. The staff was friendly and orderly and helped us in our choices of wine to enjoy it with. They have a massive collection of wine for you to enjoy and the prices are reasonable. The vibe is loud and lovely with mostly standing room and the seating is limited, both inside and outside.

Absolutely amazing cicchetti (Venetian finger sandwiches) and spritzes! Was recommended by a fellow…read morefriend who visited years ago and this place is loved by locals and tourists alike. You go to the counter, request which sandwiches you want, order yourself a drink, and eat outside along the water. Fair warning though, beware of the seagulls. They are on the prowl and ready to steal these amazing sandwiches. In clockwise order, I got the avocado with shrimp, truffle with egg, tuna with caramelized onion, mushroom, and salmon with lemon. All of them were drastically different but #1-3 were my favorites. I got a second one of the tuna as well. My husband ordered a different combo not pictured and loved his as well. Great service, cool place. I will definitely be missing this when we return home.

Excellent Italian beach summer experience. Beautiful location within the Blue Moon resort. Not a…read morehotel but a beach club where you can rent 2 chairs and an umbrella for the day (we paid 30 Euros). This casual restaurant is located right behind the beach chairs, in the sand (with view of the water) and had a great relaxing atmosphere. There are tables or lounge style couches for whatever you fancy may be. Very reasonable prices. Great friendly staff, refreshing drinks (mojito a must), calamari so tender and juicy, caprese tasted fresh, avocado toast (basically a veggie sandwich with fried egg; very flavorful with a chipotle aioli), and seafood spaghetti (served in a soft taco shell instead of bread). Soft music played in the background, I didn't want to leave! Highly recommend the whole experience of beach chairs and an afternoon lunch here!

I went here one night for part of Venice's legendary happy hour, Aperitivo. The buffet wasn't…read morerunning that night, because they had been booked for a private party. Still we decided to stick around and order some food. The pizza was quite good, and the campari cocktails were the best I've ever had. This is probably the hippest happy hour scene in Venice, and the square around Orange is packed with people during happy hour. You should really check this place out, good food and mostly good service. (The bar tender was a huge jerk, so minus one star.)

Riva Lounge is located in the luxury hotel, The Gritti Palace, but is open to the public. It's…read moreknown for being a fancy bar frequented by celebrities and the interior is quite opulent. My brother and I stopped by for drinks at night and enjoyed the quieter atmosphere. The waiter seated us on their outdoor patio which overlooks the canal and you can see the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute and Peggy Guggenheim Collection from here. In terms of drinks, the drinks are definitely a bit more expensive than other spots, so you're really paying for the atmosphere and great view. That being said, the drinks aren't bad here. I got a cocktail and it reminded me a bit of lemon Schweppes. They also served all drinks with a side of olives, potato chips, and hazelnuts.
