    The food quality/taste was definitely not on par with the other high star rated restaurants in Venice.

    Nico was very personable and made our experience very comfortable. He did an exceptional job decanting the Venetian Amorone wine he suggested.

    Friendly and outgoing service. Food was very tasty. Started with pasta and then had octopus as second course. Limoncello at the end made it perfect.

    The restaurant was nicely decorated but it was quite hot sitting inside. The menu was quite extensive and offered lots of options. The waitress took our order dropped off the food and that was it. She gave minimal service. The possible manager was lovely and towards the end did speak with us. I ordered the sea bass which was the catch of the day and it was an entire fish. Bones and all. Apparently they normally remove the bones when the fish is ordered just not for me. I didn’t like the bones so my husband switched with me. He ordered the lobster pasta. Quite delicious. I almost forgot the caprese salad that was excellent. Overall we liked the food but found service was lacking.

    They are known for their seafood here! Must try the Pacherri and the tiramisu is exceptional. The steak comes on a hot metal plate so request it rare then remove quickly so it doesn’t over cook. Great service and highly recommend you make this a stop when visiting Venice.

    Waiter Nico from Albany did a fantastic job. He was detailed in recommending, decanting and pouring the local wine. Lamb chops were delicious.

    Service was very friendly and attentive….the best we had in Venice. We ate here our last night. We stayed 3 nights in Venice and had we eaten here our first night we would have returned. The food was also the best we had during our stay. We dined at Antiche Carampane and Hostaria Castello the other nights, for reference. Everything was perfect here. We were not rushed. We were made to feel welcome. The service was attentive but not over bearing and the food was spectacular! Highly recommended!

    The carpaccio starter was good, with a generous portion but somewhat lacking in flavor. The lobster linguine was excellent, well-prepared, and full of flavour. Service throughout was excellent. Overall, an enjoyable dining experience with a lovely atmosphere.

    I ordered file, but instead of medium, I got rare, and file had some parts un-chewable. They decreased file price from 30 to 20, but I remained unsatisfied. However, the antipasti was good enough.

    Attentive and lovely waiters and waitresses, all happy to help and able have a laugh. Every single course was delicious (we had all four) but my favourite was the sesame pistachio tuna! Everything was cooked perfectly and the quality of food was amazing. We finished with dessert and some complimentary limoncello!

    Bear in mind there will be a queue at busy times so, even if you have a reservation, do stick around. the food and wine list are both superb.
