My husband and I chose this restaurant after researching reviews we found online and was situated in the beautiful and quiet area of Dorsoduro, and conveniently was a five minute walk to our hotel to our hotel on The Grand Canal. We were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary and were greeted with congratulations and a complimentary glass of fizz🥂 We had the tasting menu which was delicious, we did not choose the wine pairing as we are ignorantly red wine lovers 🍷🍷… being a Michelin starred restaurant I would have expected it to have been more expensive, but was actually very reasonable, even the wine list was not overly priced. Also I have a food allergy and the menu had a full description on the back cover to allay any fears. To top it all off the ambience was gorgeous, with Billie Holliday quietly singing away in the background ! Thank you for an amazing evening 🙏

We chose the tasting menu with matching wines. The fried zucchini flowers were slightly disappointing, rather too much batter, but the other courses more than made up for it and the wines, particularly the reds, were very well chosen. Good value.

Food was very good and delicious. Ambiente: in a room with only 5 tables in a row, tiny room, stiff atmosphere. Service was friendly, but not as perfect as could be expected from a restaurant with such high prices! And in the end there was 10% tipp on the bill, calculated even on the coperto! The most expensive dinner of our holidays.

We had the tasting menu and the food was delicious! The service was very attentive, and although pricy, you certainly get what you pay for. Ambience was quiet, romantic and charming. We would certainly recommend and hope to return!

Excellent quality local restaurant that is popular with tourists but the more discerning kind. Friendly and efficient service, great Venetian food and an excellent wine list with lots of regional choices. Recommended.

The little restaurant had a good atmosphere, and we we’re met by a friendly staff. The food was not as we had expected. Non of the dishes was exceptional. Only one small glass of wine for the first 5 disches, but all the wine tasted fantastic.

We had a lovely evening. The food was excellent, and the service was perfect. Though we were not sitting too close to others as a table was left open between us and guests, the tables were tightly packed. A great location after a visit to the Academy or Peggy Guggenheim Museum,

There were six of us (three couples) and we spent three days on holiday in Venice. The dinner at Ai Gondeleri was the most disappointing of the three dinners and cost about 25% more than the others. The food was less tasty, the pasta dishes being particularly poor; two of us had white truffle as an extra as it was in season, but even this did not compare well with truffle dishes we had had at London Restaurants. The staff tried hard to provide good service but almost too hard so it verged on obsequious. Overall we came away unimpressed.

This restaurant is written up as a reliable, classic Venetian spot, right by the Academia and the Peggy Guggenheim museum, where they also handle the catering. Sadly, the place was a big disappointment. Overpriced, mediocre food, left a literal bad taste. Both the menu and the decor could stand to be refreshed, if they wish to remain a relevant destination. What could be a cozy and intimate spot is instead a tired, overly-lit wooden panel room with a cafeteria atmosphere. If that weren’t enough, the classic rock music station playing really killed the advertised authentic vibe. They’d do well to either modernize or lean into their old-fashioned roots because what they’re doing now just isn’t working. Such a shame that one of the most expensive meals of our trip was definitely one of the worst. I believe they can do better, and hope they will. Meanwhile, stick I’ll with the Cichetti bars…

Venice was a special trip and we're happy we found this wonderful restaurant, the food and service was great. I had pappardelle in a hare sauce ragout : first time and it was succulent.
