We really enjoyed our meal in a quiet area, close to our accommodation. Would recommend this place if you’re looking for good food, away from the hustle & bustle of the main tourist areas.

Cute little osteria. The calamari was delicious. They were offering a 20% discount since it was not high season. Quite a deal. Would definitely go back.

Lovely food and beautiful restaurant. Very quiet (apart from loud staff discussions) and confusion about the wine ordered was a disappointment.

Had a great time and lovely meal, food was first class. Only issue and didnt realise until after we left that the bill was €350 for 6 of us and when booking it gave us a 20% discount which I presumed would automatically come off the bill, so please make sure the restaurant takes this off? Gary

The meal was so great the first time we went back again for another great meal. We accidentally left a bag after the meal, the waiter chased us down to make sure we got it back. We will be back again!

Price is to high, including service fee and the quality of food was under the average for similar restaurants in Venice. Pizza was very bad.

The food and service were both excellent. Pasta Carbonara was delicious and my husband said his lasagne was amazing. Lovely complimentary limoncello at the end of the meal. Waiter was so nice too.

The staff was really wonderful! Very friendly and rearranging things to keep us warm outside. We had bruscetta, pizza and pasta, and all was the best we've had. All-around best experience for our last night in Venice!

Osteria al Giardino completely stole our hearts (and taste buds)! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome — warm, genuine service that makes you feel like part of the family. The food was spectacular — every dish bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with love and the freshest ingredients. We loved it so much we came back a second time during our four-day trip — something we rarely do! Each visit was just as perfect as the first. Whether you’re enjoying a leisurely lunch in their charming garden or a cozy dinner inside, everything about this place is pure Venetian magic. If you’re in Venice, do not miss Osteria al Giardino. It’s the kind of restaurant you’ll be dreaming about long after you leave.

We tried several other options. This was by far our best choice for three nights. Wonderful! Venice, service was great. The food was very good and had a very nice environment. The limoncello at the end was Perfecto.

We ordered a cheese plate. Got 8 slices of cheese, two slices of Bree two of Swiss two of blue cheese and one that we didn’t know. Not very exotic. I ordered pasta -ravioli. It was not cooked enough. The scampi was tiny, hardly any meat for the price. Nothing else on the plate. It too forever to get the cheese and our dinner. Poor value. Disappointed.

The food was great. We had two wines. Each was excellent. Both appetizers were superb. We all had different main courses. Everyone was very satisfied. My scampi was different than what I expected, but delicious. The lamb chops were also a special treat. Our waiters patiently let me experiment with my Italian.
Osteria Al GiardinoSo glad you enjoyed the food, wines, and appetizers—thank you! 🍷✨ Hope to see you again soon!

Lovely street restaurant,large choice too much really. Best Bruschetta I have ever had. Pasta was cooked perfectly great wine suggestion by the waiter although it cost €70. Prices were very reasonable to be fair for the quality of the food. Book through the fork and get 20% off the a la carte menu. Will definitely go again....

We came upon this lovely spot while researching recommended restaurants near Santa Croce. The restaurant is very tastefully designed and furnished and the venue, both indoors and for the outdoor tables, is pleasantly enhanced by soft background music. The menu is fish forward and sufficiently extensive to have something of interest for everyone. Our pasta was perfectly cooked al dente and the seafood was fresh and very tasty. Service was friendly and efficient. Also prices are moderate and more than fair given the quality of the food. We really enjoyed our experience here. Definitely recommend!
