Good food and good service.

We had the grilled mixed seafood platter for two. It was amazing. The waiter even deboned the fish in front of us.

The staff were incredibly friendly, as well as efficient, they really put the customer first and made us and everyone feel super special. The st sphere is really lovely nice, music just the right level, very chilled and the food was exceptional. We went back a second time because we loved it so much and had our Silver Wedding Anniversary celebratory meal there. Highly recommend.

The hostess didn’t check her reservations and as we lined up outside the restaurant for our reservation; she gave our table away. She must have felt awful after 15 minutes so we were given a glass of prosecco each while we waited outside. It was just aggravating b/c we had an 8:30 booked for weeks! We showed up on time and watched her seat a party of 4. The food was good and I don’t want to rate them poorly because the hostess didn’t confirm her reservations before seating walk ins.

Not at all "touristy", in a little side-street just off the Grande Canal (but close to the Rialto Bridge). Felt like a well-run private restaurant. Service was good, quick and friendly. Overall, an enjoyable experience, with lovely ambiance and good food.

Despite a hiccup at the beginning due to an automatic booking problem, several of us had to wait for our table for half an hour but we were offered a glass of prosecco to keep us happy, which indeed it did. The service we received once at our table was superb, our waiter Nick was very apologetic, friendly and gave excellent service. The food was outstanding and we much look forward to returning to the Restaurant on our next visit to Venice. Next time I book I will pop into the restaurant just to confirm timings.

Arrived with a booking for 7.30pm, table not quite ready, however, offered a complimentary glass of prosecco whilst we waited. Once seated (only 5-10 minutes later), efficient service, great food and very comfortable dining space. Would highly recommend.

The food was absolutely delicious. In fact, we visited restaurant two nights in a row as we felt we would be disappointed if we decided to try a different location. For our second visit we tried different dishes and found them to be just as enjoyable as the 1st night. This restaurant is one I would not hesitate to recommend.

Very well-prepared dishes, cheerful, friendly service. I recommend it to everyone!

Servers were very kind and food was good. I never felt this comfortable before even I ate deep fried one. Pasta was also really good. Both had very deep and good scent and taste of seafoods. I might visit again later, if I can.

Well worth visiting! We had a great dinner here this week. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The menu has a fabulous choice of food. We had a wonderful seafood salad with artichoke to start, followed by the daily special fish for two, both of which were superb. Great atmosphere - the restaurant was full but there is good space between tables. We will definitely visit again if we are in Venice.

perfect

Simply the most excellent dining experience in Venice. Restaurant was very busy when we arrived and despite having a booking we had to wait a little time...but we were given complementary prosecco and were given lots of attention, and when the table was free the service was quick, the food really fresh and hot and all of the staff were amazing, The sea bass risotto was the best pasta I have had in my life and both the beef fillet and pistachio tuna for mains were outstanding. Topped off with a tiramusu - just a perfect birthday dinner.

Comfortable setting with menu rich with dining choices. Pasta with generous sauces and side salad after cheese appetizers. Only three choices of wine from Veneto by the glass. Service attentive. Busy on a Tuesday evening in early December.

Impressed by reviews, we looked forward to celebrating our Silver Wedding Anniversary here. The food was indeed very good, though not exceptional compared to others we sampled in Venice. Wine prices were ridiculous but the two drinks we had were reasonable. The most disappointing thing was the indifferent service and the quite rude behaviour in not waiting for one of us to finish the first course before plonking the next on the table! So OK but expected much better.

Food was fantastic, service was great, waiters were attentive and great humour.

Very attentive waiters, romantic ambiance perfect for dates. Food was delicious. Third night in Venice/ was already on fish overload, so I ordered the Lamb Chops craving a bit of carne. Juicy, perfectly cooked, tender not gamey at all. Perfect balanced choice between tuna filet and Florentine steak.

Why anyone gives this place a good review, I blame toxic empathy. Disgusting, dirty restaurant with poor service and stinky un-fresh fish. It’s offensive. I don’t understand any good reviews. A rip off at any price. At end of meal the waiter demanded a tip ?
San SilvestroDear costumer we are sorry to hear that your experience didn t met your expectations. However we were quite surprised to read such a negative review as you finished your meal without mentioning any issue to our staff. Regarding the tip please note that it is never required or demanded , we simply mention it politely,and only if guests wish to leave one as appreciation for the service. We still thank you for your feedback and will keep working to provide the best possible experience to all our guests. Kind regards Ristorante San Silvestro
