It was quite good, however, we watched the man knock over one of the pieces onto the FLOOR, then clean everything up, put more topping on it and then put the piece of bread back on the tray.

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.

Every time when we're in Venice, All Arco is an absolute must. This time we've came here for lunch…read morethree times even. It's still the Gold standard for Cicchetti here in Venice. It's a cozy little bar. Staff is fantastic, friendly and helpful - despite being very very busy at all times. It's popular with both locals and tourists. And for good reason. They've got a huge range of fantastic cicchetti. And nice, affordable wine, prosecco and more. There are only four tables outside and limited space to stand inside. Most visitors just hang around in front of the Bar. We've managed to get a table each visit still. We've had some of our favorites again: Gorgonzola with anchovies, some with sardines, some with bacalau. Some with prosciutto or lardo. Smoked fish or salmon All great stuff. But also this time we've discovered some new ones: With crudo di mare (raw fish/seafood), shrimp and sour onions, mushroom cream topped with mushrooms, bacon and artichokes. They've also got other snacks like fried bacalau. Really: Every single item here was delicous. They are just the best at what they're doing. And that since a long time. It never disappoints and is well worth the money. Depending on the day and time they do not always have all and/or the same cicchetti. Even more reason to come back to get some more. And we will definitely be back.

When I was in Venice and looking for food recommendations, many places online suggested Bar…read moreAll'Arco as a restaurant to check out for cichetti. Since it was in walkable distance from where I was staying, I decided to check it out for lunch. The bar is pretty small, so I think taking it to go is usually what many people do. I got there close to when it opened so it wasn't crowded and I was able to order right away. I decided to try a few of their cichetti that had seafood on it like fish and fried squid. These are all bite-sized so I would definitely recommend getting multiple to try out the different flavors, especially with the different cheeses/creams they add. The food here was very fresh, and I liked the flavors a lot so I'm glad that I went to try it out. Overall, if you're in Venice then this is a good spot to check out!

I really enjoyed the wine and chicette selection from here. There is draft wine which you are able…read moreto fill your bottle and take it back home. They also offer some beers as well. This is a casual spot and a great place to stop at for a few snacks and some drinks. There aren't any seats here however there is about 15-20 spots where you can take your drinks and food to enjoy while standing. I tried the vegetable risotto and meatball with polenta and both were delicious. Both items were flavorful and filling.

They are very friendly and welcoming. I got a mixture of things telling the woman behind the counter to just give me some stuff she'd like to eat. It was all delicious and the asparagus dish she gave me was completely unlike anything I've ever had. Like most places in Italy, this place is small as well but it wasn't overrun. It was steady. But the quality of service never suffered. I think it's a good place to escape crowds and unwind with a quick bite and EXCEPTIONAL tiramisu.

The food is some of the best we have had all over Italy. On our first visit my sister orders the pasta and bean soup because she was not feeling well. I ordered the spaghetti all' amatriciana and we shared the fresh sea bream grilled whole fish with grilled vegetables. It was divine! The service from Nacio and his team was wonderful. At the end of our meal he brought us a small shot of limoncello that was a tart and delicious way to end the meal. We loved it so much we came back for dinner the next night where my sister had the lasagna al forno and I had the spaghetti aglio e oglio with chili peppers. For our second course we had the grilled pork chop with roasted veggies and the Yahay pizza. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. This time we ended with the flaming creme brûlée that was creamy deliciousness! Nacio then brought us a digestif that tasted like anise liquor which we loved! We highly recommend trying this place!
