    The worst Carbonara pasta I've ever had. Bacon ??? 3 tablespoons of oil at the bottom of the plate, and egg omelette. I wish the waiter had come and asked us how our food was, but he didn't. The pasta was really bad and the food was expensive too!

    The restaurant did have a booking but no tables were ready so we had to wait, but not for long. The waiters were nice and we got bread and drinks quite quickly. Our starter was a Venetian fish platter which was very tasty and I would recommend. Unfortunately the main dish of Ribeye steak was really tough and tasted of very little. It came with rocket and tomato salad. We also ordered beef cheeks with polenta which tasted good, but looked terrible, just like a plate of slop. French fries were hot and crisp which was good. It wasn't really the Venetian experience I was hoping for as the rating had been reasonably high at 8.9. Not sure why. The fact I got a 50% discount with the Fork saved the evening.

    Food and service was ok. Paid w cc. Waiter inputted that I chose to pay in U.S. dollars ( I did not) and there was a 3% charge plus a poor exchange rate.

    Food was good, the view is spectacular. It’s nearly impossible to rate restaurants in Venice. They are all excellent quality. My rating is based on how creative/original the menu is and presentation. 4 stars for this placr

    possible the worst experience I have had in a restaurant ever. the strat was ok but the pizza was swinging in liquid! myself and my partner had to pour it off in to a glass. the waiter kept disappearing to a different building to get the food order. it was the 23rd December so may be they were winding up for Christmas. the member of staff was very polite and sweet but the food was disgusting!

    Relaxing outside dining under tents in a quiet more residential square . One of favorite dining experiences during our stay in Venice even though it was less expensive than others.

    Booked via The Fork. Friendly welcome on arrival. Very cozy table outside with a fantastic view of the old hospital. Inside there was a smell that was not pleasant. But in the end we had a very tasty meal at a reasonable price. Definitely recommended.

    Excellent service especially as we had a very tired 2 year old with us. Beautiful pasta and pizza. Lovely setting. Very traditional restaurant. Inside and outside dining. Spotlessly clean.
