The QR menu can be confusing for some. They do provide an iPad, but that is not the most sanitary surface to order your food. They have a menu on the outside of the restaurant but it does not match what is on their online menu. One member of our party was not able to order what they wanted and had to. switch their order. The food is good. The location is good. I don't know if I would say excellent but it is good and you have a front row seat on the Grand Canal.

I like the location. It faces the canal. The food is just normal, nothing special. Portions are tiny with the price they're charging per plate. I understand it's a tourist destination. But for locals, not value for what you're getting.

This is an amazing experience, everything was perfect and high-end: the food, the service, the location. And such a magnificent view at the Grand Canal. It is certainly a gem.

A fine restaurant with good quality ingredients, a very good choice if you want to sit by the grand Canal.

It was a beautiful night outside on the patio. What a perfect location watching all the activity on the canal and the beautiful people watching! Food was excellent and the staff very attentive. Service with a smile. I’ll be back????

Good atmosphere, decent food, terrible service — took over 38 minutes to get our bill after asking three times. No one checked on us. Not very friendly :(

The food was so bad for the price that I almost cried. Service was very average and they acted like they didn’t want to talk to you. This place is a tourist trap. Beware of google ratings that say this place this good with 4 star ratings. Pasta was horrible.

The food was very good, especially the seafood. The location is amazing! The area is enjoyable as it's not an extremely busy part of the canal, but still fun and lively . We made a reservation and had a comfortable outside table with beautiful views of the area. The service was good. While the restaurant was very busy, were received prompt attention when requested. Overall, a very enjoyable meal with family.

I asked the restaurant to help me prepare the surprise for my husband’s birthday and the service was amazing! The staff was really great, the food very good (grilled tuna - excellent!), we even got a special menu for our daughter, who can eat only gluten- free products. I’m really grateful, how helpful this restaurant was. We had a quiet table in a corner, with a view on a Grand Canal but without hordes of tourists passing by.

Considering we were the only diners in the restaurant when it opened at 6pm ... the food was not good quality .. We asked for an oyster each but these didn't turn up (thankfully not charged ) Felt like we couldn't ask the staff for things as they didn't even ask how the food was (it wasn't nice especiallyor the price tag) Skipped dessert to avoid more disappointment Best part of the meal was the lovely view outside .

Restaurant was at the very end of canal where there is much less foot traffic and plenty of empty table. We requested a table facing the canal. The female hostess ( dark hair in a pony tail). Was extremely rude. My friend was offended by her rudeness and dismissive attitude with her heavy accent, we found a table by the water a few restaurants down and left!

Lovely restaurant not far from The Rialto Bridge and in a quiet location. We requested a table by the canal and on both occasions this was reserved for us. Prices are fairly good and our food was very tasty and enjoyable.
