Great service with humorous waiters. Food was very good overall happy and would gladly recommend this place. Spent little over 100 for 1antipasti, 2 mains, 2 desserts and wine. Worth every penny.

We stopped here for lunch and were pleased with the quality of the food overall. Opt for the seafood or daily specials and you won't go wrong. The penne with eggplant and cherry tomatoes was decreed by my older son as the best pasta he's had in a long time, while the gnocci with scampi and pumpkin that I had... More

The food was fantastic. We had clams as appetiser, grilled prawns in sea salt and beef fillet as mains, and lemon cake as dessert. The most fantastic part of the experience was the service. The waiters were friendly charming and helpful. Made us feel completely at home in a foreign land. We'll definitely be back.

A small menu - but that's a good thing in Venice! The quality of the food was excellent and some really interesting dishes: I particularly enjoyed the salad of warm prawns with rocket and mint, followed by the beef in port wine sauce. Service was attentive but not oppressive and extremely helpful, explaining the menu and any particular question when... More

We had a tremendous time in this restaurant after stumbling across it on our meander through venice. Service was excellent from a waiter with a keen sense of humour. The food was absolutely delicious, i personally have never had better calamari. Could not be recommended any higher.

We were obliged to go in this restaurant because Al Paradiso restaurant was very busy and we were too hungry to wait. I went for touristic menu which included several sea food dishes. Being a Mediterranean one thing I know the best is sea food and the sea food in this restaurant was not up to my standards at all!... More
