    We visited this restaurant every year when we take our trip to Venice. I literally book it 4 months out, it’s that good. Looking forward to being back next year!

    Several dishes ordered, with the Lasagne Bolognese being very good, but tables unanimous the best dish was Short pasta with bacon and arugula. As other reviews state, they bring you one or more things you didn't order, but beware that they also try to include something extra on the bill too. We did not order an appetizer but it was included on the bill. Quite the hassle dealing with that as when questioned the then referred to the free dessert that was not ordered, but they also brought that was not on the bill. Go with the expectations to get something not ordered included, but also possibly having something on the bill you didn't order.

    First time I had pasta with the squids and they were good! They gave a taste of some of their desserts and drinks.

    The owner talked with us at our table which was nice, but they had a large party while we were there so food took a while and our server was pulled to that table as well. The food is really good though!

    The food was pretty good…. The service was quick very fast but as soon as we finished our dinner we ordered coffee and they brought us right away the bill asking if we wanted to order anything else … we felt like they wanted us to eat pay and leave immediately just wanted to get rid of us! Didn’t feel like sitting there chat and enjoy the moment! This was also happening with all the clients around as and there were not other people waiting!

    This is a very cute place but they were weirdly playing pop/club music really loudly. It detracted from the whole experience. The wait staff were efficient but not friendly. I think if the music had been quieter and different we would have been able to enjoy this more.

    Very tasty food, everything we ordered was delicious! The only thing that did not make this a 5* experience was the feeling that we were somehow rushed to finish our food, pay and leave!

    I looked the restaurant ahead and was fooled by the amount of reviews. We had a reservation and by the time we arrived they didn’t even care, they just seated us next to the catering area. The place was very loud and not suitable for a relaxing dinner. The service was very bad and the waitress/ the manager were very rude. They rush you with ordering and force you to leave in less than 30 min pf arriving. 100% Wouldn’t recommend.

    The food was excellent . I had grilled seafood for starter which was very good - good flavour and a good range of seafood . My husband had beef tartare which was well presented and flavoursome . For main we had spaghetti alla vongole and spaghetti with scampi .- both were good portion size and good flavour . The ambience of the restaurant was good - many Italians and locals - a good sign of a good place to eat . The service was fast - too fast for some ! The waiter was quick to tidy away plates as soon as you had finished ! Our entire meal took about 40 minutes !!!! In all a nice restaurant, excellent food great if you are in a hurry !!!!!

    Still the same warm hospitality, authentic cuisine and Venetian charm as when I visited over a decade ago. The seafood, as always, a highlight.

    The restaurant was so authentically Italian. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm, and you could tell the food was so fresh. We would recommend it to anyone in Venice.

    We were seated promptly but in a small table with another couple.we were not greeted warmly but rather rudely. The waiter wanted our order right away but I wanted a wine list. The food was good but I did not feel welcome

    Our server had a great personality and was very engaging. The food was very good. I was very happy we made reservations. There was a long line of people that didn't.

    This was our second time visiting. The first time was 2016. Our server seemed annoyed with us, but our other servers were actually quite kind. We met the owner, who was absolutely brilliant. Truly kind and gracious and super generous!

    5/10

    Central location in San Marco district. Large restaurant catering largely for tourists employing menu with pictures, in-house accordian and singers to serenade the customers. Water placed on table without asking and then billed for. Food is average at best with additional 'on-the-house' extra like bread and desserts. Overall quite expensive for what you get and not of good quality. Ultimately the (free) extras are hidden with the costs of mains and drinks. Didn't return. Many alternatives.

    Felt very rushed to eat the food. Plate removed within seconds of finishing and even when we hadn’t finished!!!! Felt very under pressure. There was only 2 others in the restaurant but they must of overbooked after us so wanted us out.

    The staff were rude & attempted to rush us to order less than 5 minutes of sitting, than told us there are people waiting for tables (which there were not ). We walked out. Very rude staff. Would definitely not recommend going if you’re looking for an enjoyable experience.

    Food was good. Service was absolutely horrible!!!! i asked for a glass of white wine whhen we ordered. 20 minutes later we got our food and i had to flag down the waiter to remind him about the wine. I had to ask 3 times for cheese for my son's pasta. My husband was still eating his meal when one waitress brought us the desert menu and another brought us our bill within seconds of each other. So we didn't even get a chance to order desert. I've never seen a restaurant rush people out so fast!!! I would not recommend this place!!!

    Not traditional at all, they butter people up at the end of their meal with “free” dessert and dessert shots to leave a review, hence all the GREAT reviews. Scammers at their finest.
