Where to eat Seafood food in Venice: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Best Seafood restaurants nearby. Discover the best Seafood food in Venice. View Menus, Photos and Reviews for Seafood restaurants near you.. For centuries Venice has been defined by its otherworldly presence. Divided into six sestieri (districts), the city is split by the Grand Canal, snaking through Venice in a backwards “S” formation. Water here is a means of communication, connecting its parts as well as opening the city to the outside world. People move themselves and cargo by foot and boats of all types. A city of great contrasts, the strength and beauty of Venice are perpetually challenged by its great fragility – constant study, repair, resourcefulness, and vigilance maintain a very delicate balance here.

We were sent here by our Hotel who said it was a family owned restaurant with a good reputation. They were right. Great seafood raviolli, fantastic service and a total Venetian square side experience. We spend a relaxed hour or so eating our last meal in Venice and it rounded off a highlight of our tour. Worth navigating the maze to find.

Absolutely delicious food, totally worth the small wait (which is only because it's a very popular place!). Had starters, secondi, and desserts with a bottle of wine. Never once had to refill our wine glasses,it was always done for us. Incredibly polite and welcoming staff. Highly recommend booking earlier in the day at least, it fills up at night! Such a fantastic meal.

Closed from 7th of January to 11th of February. Right in the heart of Venice, between Santa Lucia train station and the Rialto Bridge, and just a few steps away from the Casino, you will find a restaurant where we have translated our welcoming philosophy

Two yeras since our last visit, La Colombina retains its reputation as one of our favourite restraurants in Venice. Under the supervision of the charming owner Adriana we tried the seafood tasting menu which included several chichetta apetizsers with a distinct Oriental influence, showing that the restaurant is willing to innovate when it comes to flavours. The wine was as reliable and the service as friendly as always.

We were so looking forward to dinner, and perhaps we just hit a bit of bad timing: but everyone seemed flustered when we arrived, and it took nearly half an hour before we got a drink. We also found ourselves in a slightly soulless room at the back, which seemed only to be occupied by foreigners, with Italians in the jollier bit at the front.Having got that off my chest, the food was spectacularly clever, and the taster menu seemed to be the one to go for. Wine was good, but expensive. The owner came to introduce himself, which was a nice touch.I suspect lunch or dinner outside is the better way to go. Next time.Hello , and thank you for your appreciation about the food:at least and first of all Riviera is a Restaurant and we are really proud about what we propose to our Guests and really happy when they appreciate it.About the price of the wine -as I already wrote too much times on these pages too- , there is a huge difference between âexpensive â and âpriceyâ , and Quality , the Real one, have a price.Anyway our wine list propose about 250 different bottles, each one of a selected quality but with a really wide range of prices, and you chose your one.Only for your information, I was recently criticized by some âcolleaguesâ because I propose some âimportantâ wines at an affordable price, too much affordable, they mean.About the room , the first Guest arriving choose his table: some one prefer one room, some others the other, and the "slightly soulless room at the back", with delicate artworks by Marcello Chiarenza and the light work by Fabrice Kebourg , it's possibly my preferred one , and I take care about any single detail.About the Service no question, you are ab-so-lu-tely unfair.There can be only one reason if a table wait more than 5 (five, not 30) minutes before to have a drink:only if the Guest, just arrived, decide to go immediately at the washroom, and then when he came back his friend go there too, and one after the other will do it , not giving to my Collaborators the chance to approach the table having all the Guests sit down to make a proposal and/or to receive a command.Obviously I understand that, but this is absolutely not our responsibility; 4 Guests on a table doing that, and 15minutes will be gone for sure (but not 30!).You must know that to have the time to receive correctly our Guests we never receive more than 3 or max 4 tables every 1/2hour, you can check it on line:obviously if one table arrive 20 minutes late and another one 15 minutes in advance, and someone walk in at the same time having in the meanwhile another table that is stopped because first he was at the phone with the daughter or with his Associate, then he went to the wc, then he forgot the glasses in the pocket etc etc., it will be a little bit difficult to respect a perfect timing , but I repeat that you can understand that itâs not our will or responsibility , for sure.Did you ever think about it?Never before?!Neither when you âquicklyâ answered to one message leaving the washroom?I see.Our process is clear and precise:â we receive the Guest and propose a table taking care about coat, bags , etc.â we propose and bring them the preferred mineral water, still, sparkling, or bothâ we serve the water and we ask for a drink .(We donât propose a drink only to the Guests walking in without a reservation: maybe they arrived by hazard and I donât want that anybody can have the sensation that we force him to drink=spend money).So if the Guests donât start the âwc/phone/picture/one more/washroom/phone call/I forgot my shoes WorldTourâ , in 5 minutes maximum everything it will be done and Iâll be at the table to welcome the them one more time and to introduce myself, our Carte, and the Wine List.Otherwise Iâll be at their table only just a while before the advertising break, but only if Iâll be lucky.And as you wrote I was at your table to welcome you and for sure to enquire about your satisfaction at least 2 times but...you didnât say anything to me about your drinks...so ?!Maybe you were sending a last sms from the wc at that moment?Maybe not, but for sure you are unfairGP Cremonini

Local is surely a place to visit, with quite interesting local food processed fabulously - yet, the logic to offer "pre-set" minimum dinners seems strange, and prices are clearly too high. Assume to spend much time waiting for your food as well.We've been there before - a few years ago, shortly after opening - and were excited. Our last visit dampened the excitement, though.

Highly deserves its fine rating in TripAdvisor. Staff was wonderful, especially Gigi. We started with the cheese platter, then my wife had the vegetable soup and I had the lasagna and all of it was extremely delicious and fresh. Will come back again.

Starting from the phenomenal service, me and my brother really enjoyed the starters (we had the smoked burrata with an aubergine pesto) and though our main wasnât bad (we had the pasta with pistacchio pesto and something else I canât quite remember) see? not bad but not very memorable... also the tiramisù and carrot cake were very good too!! Definitely worth a visit!

We are in Venice for my wifeâs birthday and we went to this restaurant on Monday night. They sat us at a table without a reservation at the place was empty. Only one other couple that we saw. The waiter brought over some breadsticks and put about a quarter glass of champagne in each of our glasses and walked away. He was gone for over 10 minutes. When he came back he asked us if we are ready to order. We had many questions as weâve not been to this restaurant before. We asked about the spaghetti and lobster, He said no, weâre out of that. The weather is very short with us. Actually rude. It gets better from there. We told him we would like a bowl of the minestrone soup but needed more time to look at the menu and he walked away. Another 10 minutes go by and we had been eating the stale bread sticks and thereâs crumbs all over the table. When he finally came back I asked for a couple of plates maybe Some oil and balsamic. He turns around and looks at me and said youâll get plates when I bring the soup! And he walked away. My wifeâs chin hit the floor before she blurted out âWhat an ass.â The couple at the table next to us overheard that and turned around and said he sure is! So we knew it wasnât just us. He came back with a bowl of minestrone soup and two plates and two spoons. Then he walked away. We looked at each other and try to figure out how weâre going to share the soup with two plates. You have a couple started laughing as they couldnât believe it either. The plates werenât level because theyâre sitting on the crumbs and pieces of stale breadsticks. So each took a spoon and started spooning minestrone from the center of the table across the plates and into our mouths. At this point I was ready to leave but we are trying to have a romantic dinner as were celebrating her birthday. Hoping it would only get better we actually ordered dinner. When the dinner came out my steak was cold and trying to cut through it with a serrated knife was like chopping wood. The meat was veiny and tough. Being brave I actually tasted it, and it was horrible and very undercooked as I asked for medium. The other dish wasnât much better but because we had been waiting so long to eat she actually ate it instead of starving. It wasnât warm either. When The waiter finally came back I told my wasnât happy with the meat and it was undercooked. He took it back the manager brought it back. Apologized for the preparation. I tasted it it was still horrible although it was warm this time. That didnât make it any better. The other couple got up and left. We told the manager we were done, we had enough, did want to try anything else. The waiter was rude, the food was horrible, I want to pay my bill and go. Save yourself some trouble, never ever try this restaurant when in Venice. It is the worst restaurant Iâve ever been to in my entire life.Good morning, when a criticism is well constructed we take it into consideration, when as in this case everything is wrong, from the quality of the food and the service, we understand the situation and go further, for us speak of the other 1000 reviews of customers satisfied by the kindness of the waiters and food quality.
