    This is a great restaurant. We have eaten here twice and the food is well made with great ingredients. Staff is friendly without being pushy. Pizzas are not on the menu, but they can make them for kids.

    Very nice food, all fresh and tasty. And served for eyes, too. Quick service. Not too crowdy street/square.

    Absolutely big surprise We had an unforgettable dining experience at Santa Maria Formosa. Everything was perfect — from the elegant setting to the genuinely warm and attentive service. The tuna was perfectly seared, the oysters fresh and briny, and the seafood pasta bursting with flavor and cooked just right. A true Venetian gem that blends authenticity with a touch of sophistication. Highly recommended if you’re looking for high-quality seafood in a beautiful, quiet setting!

    they kept trying to recommend to order expensive menu, and welcoming attitude has been changed once we confirmed that we order only 6 plates for 6 people. Foods were not bad, but overpriced.

    Brilliant attentive service, complementary Prosecco was a bonus too. Delicious food with lots of options, the spicy swordfish and scallops starters were perfect as was the pasta dishes we had of butter truffle spaghetti and blue crab and smoked ricotta fusilli. Ambience was perfect and the wall of wine bottles was a real feature!

    being in the fish market in the morning, we have been disappointed by the mix grill plate. overcooked and too oily. it would have deserved a better chef. surely other thibgs to try. for us, by far too expensive vs quality

    It was a very good and delicious experience. We shared the seafood plate for two for 40 Euro per person. It was well cooked and very delicious. In the background was music from Eurovision Song Contest, so all ESC fans will love it.
