    The pasta was out of this world. They have this amazing chocolate dessert that I forgot to take a picture

    The staff were welcoming and so accommodating. We had a lovely lunch and chose the specials and seafood pasta dishes. Great value and even better with The Fork discount on top.

    Excellent dining experience with helpful outdoor fans -- important in August. Definitely get the capellaci -- they were excellent. The grilled vegetables as an appetizer were a disappointment. Excellent choice of wines. The bill did say "tip not included" -- in English -- not Italian. We ignored that.

    The food at Rialto Novo was delicious. The seafood linguine was special and highly recommend this dish. Our server was also very friendly and was enthusiastic in giving recommendations on complementary dishes for our group.

    Had dinner tonight on recommendation of The Fork. Small menu but enough selection. We ordered tomato bruschetta for appetizer. 10 euro for 4 small slices of stale bread. Should have known since the complimentary buns they brought to table was the same stale, chewy bread. For dinner we had zuppa di pesche, seafood linguine and pasta aglio & olio. Food was good but because the bread was awful, you couldn’t soak up the sauce as we Italians call “scarpetta”. My main issue was the service. The restaurant was not busy. They were quick to sit you down and take your order but once they brought your meals, you never saw them again. No one came to ask if the meal was good, any extra drinks, etc but I’m not sure if this is how restaurant service is all over Italy. They also charged 3 euro cover charge per person so this probably explains why the lack of customer service as they automatically get tipped. Thank god we had the 20% off deal that was offered through The Fork app

    Our server was Antonio and he treated us with so much love and care, that we felt like home. The food waiting time was quick, warm and full of flavors. We were looking for a place with authentic venezian food and we were able to find it in here!! The ambience is perfect because is private and the restaurant is within the venician beautiful houses. It was an unforgettable experience!

    Both of the pastas were really nice. The grilled chicken was €17 for 1 chicken breast with no side other than rocket. Green salad was very basic with no dressing, bit of a disappointment, and was served about 10 mins after we got our food so we didn’t think it was coming anymore. The younger waiters in black were the most helpful and friendly. Others seemed impatient and rushed us, despite our booking being at 20:45 and the restaurant advertised to close at 23:00. At the end we were given our bill and it was really overemphasised that we should give a tip. He even went on to say that they “recommended 10%, 15% or 20%”. We usually always tip and still left a small amount this time, but it just made us feel uncomfortable practically being asked to tip. Not only this but he gave the bill directly to me and then asked, is something wrong as soon as I looked at it. I think he was waiting for me to argue that they hadn’t applied The Fork discount, but at that point I just wanted to leave!

    Trattoria Rialto NovoOwner

    HI First : since you took the menu of the day, first course, second course and salad are included for only €17,5 all, obviously the portion is not the same as on the mainMenu! second: the discount TheFork does not include the menu of the day or even drinks! third: it is our duty to always ask all customers if everything went well and if they need anything, and to explain that the tip for the waiter is not included on the invoices, and if they like to give it. However, we thank you and wish you a good continuation

    The restaurant's interior decoration is acceptable, but the outdoor dining area is the public toilet on the island, which is quite a pity. The price is a bit high. The staff are very enthusiastic, all handsome young men!

    Nice restaurant on a small plaza in the heart of Venice. Food was delicious but portions were a little small. Lively atmosphere, a little too lively the night we were there due to a large group being fairly boisterous. However the location appears to be quiet in general. Would recommend

    We had a great experience at Rialto Novo. The service was excellent and the seafood is fabulous. Our server Antonio make good recommendations for the white wine. The combination plates are the best. I come from New York and had a lot of seafood restaurants before. This one is definitely one of the best.

    Wow, this was an excellent dinner I’ll never forget. From the food to the hospitality, everything was great. It’s a bit off the main canal so it’s quieter, and not as swarmed with tourists. Highly recommend if looking for a quiet spot with delicious authentic venezian food

    A true Venetian gem! We had dinner at Trattoria Rialto Novo and it was nothing short of exceptional. Tucked away in a quiet little square just steps from the Rialto Bridge, it felt like a peaceful escape in the heart of bustling Venice. The menu is a celebration of traditional Venetian cuisine, with fresh, beautifully prepared dishes. The seafood was incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and elegantly presented. Even the homemade desserts were outstanding. The service was impeccable: friendly, attentive, and never intrusive. We truly felt taken care of from start to finish. The atmosphere was romantic and relaxed—ideal for a special evening. Prices are more than fair considering the quality of food and service. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authenticity, top quality, and a touch of Venetian magic.
