We are on our own during the last day stay in Venice. I looked Yelp and found this one right away. The Tour Manager highly recommended to try the squid ink dish. This restaurant happened to serve Spaghetti with squid ink. So I gave it a try! It was delicious and the homemade pasta has great texture. My wife ordered Spaghetti with duck, but she liked my selection even better. We shared Fried Calamari as appetizer, and it was fresh and yummy with light batter. The free bread that comes with meals was just okay. Overall, a great restaurant if you are staying at Murano. The restaurant is huge and could not be judge by the small entrance in the front. What a great dining experience!

(Seafood Pomodorini: D) - Unfortunately, the pasta gives saline forward to the palette and the seafood is rather dry.

4.5 and rounded up. Interesting the range of reviews here. Came here in April and found the food…read morestellar and prices spectacular for the quality of food relative to NYC. Initial impressions--the outdoor patio seating along the canal looked lovely though was completely packed at lunchtime around 1pm. Waiting at the front of the restaurant, service looked to be quite busy, I walked inside and saw what appeared to be a manager or waitstaff having a conversation with the bartender. Not wanting to interrupt, I waited for about 5-7 minutes for them to be done, it was a bit strange because neither of them seemed to acknowledge my presence until I finally interrupted and asked if there were any tables available. Not sure if Italians expect you to make yourself known in this type of situation? In any case, we were directed to a different waitstaff and seated pretty promptly after that. Once seated, service was actually pretty great overall, though it did feel with the lunchtime rush each of the table staff had many tables to handle simultaneously. The overall ambience was warm with partial stone walls, and a bit formal, with white tablecloths and fabric-covered high-back seats. The waitstaff were polished and in uniform. The outside patio seated around 20 and interior dining rooms probably another 50 inside. We were seated in a smaller side room with tables for about dozen people which ended up being kinda nice to have some privacy. Menus come in Italian and English which was very helpful. Food and drink: Glass of chianti €5: lovely. I'm not a big chianti drinker so not quite qualified to make any judgements here, it was an enjoyable glass of red! Gingerino €3.50: this is not ginger ale, (which I knew ;) so anticipated and ordered this non-alcoholic aperitivo soda with curiosity. It's native to Venice and flavored with bitter citrus and herbs, similar to a root beer/sasparilla with citrus notes. Really enjoyed this! You can also find this in supermarkets in Venice. 30-month Parma ham with carasau bread and pears in red wine €14: ugh....that ham ((drool)). The complex sweet/tart flavors from the red wine poached pears went really well with the ham. Glad they have us a separate bread basket as it was helpful in pairing with this appetizer! Pappardelle with beef cheek stew fried leek and currants €15: delicious. Pasta was maybe a little over but beef cheek meat was tender, sauce was good and fried leeks added a bit of a crisp on top. Linguini alla Scoglio - linguini with mussels, clams, prawns, squid €19: superb. Would def recommend this. The picture doesn't do it justice, the sauce was great, not really spicy at all, the dish was chock full of seafood, quite a decent portion size (the plate was quite large), and all was cooked perfectly. Yummy! Desserts: we were too full but our German and British neighbors at the table next to us ordered a couple items and by the amount of "ooo's and aahh's" coming from the table were clearly delighted. Looking at their plates, both plating and desserts were creative and gorgeous. If I go back I'd surely order dessert here too.

It was a cute ambience, brick walls, arched walkways, colorful glass decorations. Servers were friendly. We got: Pork belly with radicchio and balsamic sauce: one of our appetizers, absolutely the best dish!!! It was a perfect mix of textures with the crispy pork belly with the moisture and crunch of the vegetables, sprinkled with some raisins and nuts adding interest, and the balsamic sauce with the perfect amount of acidity. Worked so well together, refreshing, loved it! Burrata eggplant appetizer: it was ok, cooked tomatoes were amazingly sweet and just wish there was more of it. The burrata itself doesn't have much flavor, but that's the same as what I've experienced elsewhere in Italy. Maybe that's normal? Eggplants were fine. It came with 2 chip-like things which were a nice touch. Beef cheek with purple potato and fried leek: meat seemed roasted, was impressively soft/tender. Purple potato was a fun color and sauce was ok. Fried leeks were a nice crunchy aspect. Overall though, it was a very mild dish and I wasn't blown away. Spaghetti with black garlic and langoustine: a little salty but otherwise pretty good, spaghetti was bouncy and cooked perfectly. Langoustine was slightly raw, I think intentional but not my preference. My partner cracked into the shell and got to some sweet sweet langoustine meat--delicious! Actually the dish reminded me a little of Chinese chow mein... Mousse cake: so beautiful! Loved the presentation. There were a few layers inside the half dome. It was a bit sweet but with the raspberry sauce was perfect. Also got the ginseng coffee which was a bit sweet but pleasant and my partner got the Machiatone which was good. Overall pleased with the experience! Loved the creativity and attention to detail.

The presentation was impressive. The staff was mostly nice and courteous and the inside was air conditioned and clean. At 12:30 there was only one other family dining in, but gradually, as we were finishing our meal, the room filled up. What they could improve: Place a little plate on the table for bread and olive oil while waiting for food to arrive, and ask if everything is alright during the meal. Also, the food is pricey! We loved our server though, a nice young woman.

We decided to check them out because I wanted to try cicchetti while in Venice. Cicchetti originated from Venice and it's basically small plates (think tapas). Osteria ai Cacciatori offers outdoor seating along the canal or indoor seating. There are tables or you can just stand and enjoy your order by the bar. We opted to sit inside on a table. They also seem to have some games in the back and a private restroom for customers only. I ended up ordering 3 pieces of cicchetti to snack on with a glass of red wine at the display case. After we were handed the glass of wine and plate, we found an empty table to sit at. The red wine came from tap and it was a lot better than I expected! From what I read online, the bread is usually toasted but their bread was soft and room temperature. It was still good and the fish topping was quite good. Once you're done, you go up to the register to pay. Great experience trying cicchetti in Venice with excellent customer service!
