    gnocchi (left) and duck sauce (right)
    Luna L.

    the best pasta we had in venice (to be fair we only had pasta twice). the duck sauce was GOOD. tiny shop with limited standing eating space. you choose the type of pasta shape and sauce. price was really fair. the ladies making our pasta were super nice and recommended good dessert places also.

    This is a Venetian create-your-own pasta fast food store. Hot, satisfying meal in minutes. Good portions & affordable prices. Enjoyed our experience.

    Another quick spot for tasty pasta to go. I prefer the pasta they serve here over the sit down places.

    Small place with counter for you to enjoy your food. Friendly staff, quick service. They prepare it in front of you. I like the serving size, not overwhelming but filling.

    cute counter to eat and people watch

    When traveling Venice we noticed that their fast food options included "pasta in a cup". Of course my personal constant pasta cravings were awaken! We tried a couple of these places but this one is definitely my favorite! Not only do they use fresh pasta but you have an abundance if combinations and options to choose from. It's all really just build-your-own style which makes it enjoyable for anyone. We all chose completely different options: tortellini, fusilli, tagliatelle with completely different sauces. But really where could you go wrong? Each cup is made to perfection and steaming hot! But keep in mind to eat it right away. They even tell you NOT to close the lid and save it for later. So be sure to enjoy it right away! The only thing that would make this better is if they were open later. After a long night drinking at the bars, pasta in a cup is all I could dream of. So be sure to get there early before closing!

    Fusilli with Pescatora sauce and Parmesan cheese on top. Tagliatelle with Bolognese sauce. AMAZING

    Currently sitting and eating my second meal of pasta from here and planning on coming back and having dinner here. I can say after eating pasta from here that I will never eat boxed pasta again. Soooo so tasty and pretty cheap for the amount of food you get as well! 100% making a trip back to Venice just for this place!

    Really late review (01/03/20) but this place was awesome! Food was really quick and go if that's what you need! The quality of the food was really good and the staff was really nice! Not too hard to find but you do like anything else have to go around a few corners! Small place so don't miss it!!!

    Lots and lots of restaurants to choose from in Venice but this unassuming restaurant is a true gem…read more It's easy to miss as it's tucked in a corner right by a bridge. Once inside they have a couple tables with small window views of any gondolas passing by. We started off with a plate of lightly fried sardines topped with pickled white onions. The fry on the fish was super light and those vinegar-y onions were the perfect pairing. We cleaned that plate. The lasagna was well balanced with the meat, sauce, cheese. The squid ink pasta was chewy/al dente with a subtle touch of seafood flavors giving the cuttlefish. It was very umami but nothing too overbearing. Delicious! It's a Family business that was been around for many years. Grazie to the friendly staff and chef!

    I am so sad to give this restaurant such a poor rating after visiting many times during the last 20…read moreyears and loving it before. The jovial mood with the waiters with big personalities is gone. The menu you can find online is no longer available so you get a very limited menu to choose from--nearly entirely seafood. So if you have anyone in your party that just wants pasta with a red meat sauce or a non seafood lasagne, not available. We were a party of 8. Two people ordered the scallop appetizers. Pretty presentation on shells. 3 tiny scallops in the shells. More like an amuse bouche. Totally disappointing. The linguine with clams as an entree had clams so small you almost needed a magnifying glass to see them. Couldn't taste the clams and annoying to try to eat something so tiny , and just try to eat the pasta with all those tiny shells. The baby shrimp on polenta was actually good. But again the shrimp were like tiny hatchlings tempura battered. Tasted okay except for those that were soggy from the polenta that was very soupy. I wanted the gnocchi with crab which was on the very limited menu but no longer available. The alternative was gnocchi with a sea bass sauce which I chose but didn't like at all. The gnocchi were good but the sauce wasn't at all for me. We had to continue to ask for side dishes for the bread, butter, olive oil, salt and pepper. We will not return. Poor value for your money. Plus there is a cover charge and service included in your bill which was a surprise. Very sad to see our favorite Venetian restaurant decline so much.
