We were sat right in front of an open door, then got a different table after asking nicely. The staff is neutral, very hurried and not quite welcoming but still acceptable. Food and wine were great, small portions (fist-size) though for a 27€ pasta. We booked through the fork app, so we were promised a 30% discount, then the waiter “forgot” to apply it, then took 15% off upon reminding him of it. Overall - cozy place with tasty cuisine but be aware of the downsides.

Best meal and service we’ve had in Italy. Great atmosphere for couples/dates- we actually had our two children and sat outside and they accommodated our family so well. The wine, mullet carpaccio, and lasagna special were the highlights but every bit of the meal was amazing. Children said the noodles were the best in the world - and they’ve sampled a LOT of noodles in their combined 8 years of experience. Our server was fantastic- great recommendations, friendly, knowledgeable. Highly recommend!!

We have visited this restaurant three times during our stay in Venice and it has never let us down. The ambience is perfect with music just at the right level and dated to my taste! The staff were friendly, efficient and had just the right amount of familiarity to make us feel comfortable. My husband is a very fussy eater but was eager to return a second and third time after having their lasagna. We highly recommend this restaurant for both its food and staff - a real gem.

This was by far the best meal we had in Venice and was a different league to most restaurants. Obviously it’s not that cheap, even after Fork discount, but if you want something a bit special, it’s well worth a visit. Scallops starter was delicious as was the duck main, and the special dessert was based on a local island and really was a taste sensation. Overall, the best meal I’ve had in a long time.

Food was amazing! We were not hurried or rushed. Everything was so fresh and delicious, from the bread basket with fusioned whipped butter, miso broth, goat cheese salad and pasta with clams…the fillet of veal melted in our mouths! Great Fork pick!

Rossa Rosa is a charming, family-run restaurant that delivers authentic Venetian flavors with heartfelt hospitality. The homemade pasta and fresh lagoon seafood are exceptional, but what really stands out is the staff’s warmth and their spot-on wine suggestions. Our server paired each course with local Veneto wines that elevated every bite—crisp whites with the seafood and a velvety red with the pasta. The Limoncello was the perfect sweet finish. A must-visit for anyone wanting genuine food, atmosphere, and wine in Venice. ⭐ 5/5 – Flavor, charm, and perfect pairings.

We were a table of 5. All of our food was delicious including dessert. Our only complaint was the music playing was so loud that we couldn’t hear each other and our table was directly under several spot lights. This made it very hot.
