This mall was clean and well-laid out, with two stories. It featured a few popular American stores. The parking was all one-way, so I parked closest to the door. However, you can’t cross the street there; you have to walk to the right, cross at the crosswalk, and then go left to the entrance. So, if you think you’re parking close to the entrance, double-check. I left with what I came for, and also had a great cappuccino above Grom upstairs at the little cafe stand.

Nave de Vero is one of the best shopping centres I’ve visited! You can find absolutely everything here — from fashion and tech to home goods and cosmetics. The place is spacious, clean, and very well organized. The food court is fantastic, with a wide variety of options for every taste and budget. Perfect spot for shopping, eating, or just spending a nice afternoon!

Great place to buy clothes and restaurants food but don't come here for a supermarket for food or other stuff is pretty much a girls all shopping center with only one electric shop

Very good shopping mall with different brands and prices, you can either find high quality of branded clothes and buy cheaper clothes for less than 20€ The last floor is a food court with good food options.

Very good shopping mall, big and many brands. But I do suggest a designer outlet near Venice that one also worth a shot.

Very good shopping mall. Good choice of shops (most of popular brands) for any budget. On 2nd floor food court.

Shopping anyone? this shopping mall ends the holiday for a lot of people as it's the last visit before Treviso airport. spacious and nice to go around with a good selection of quality shops.

A nice lively place with a lot of options to hang out. Within the fort, there is a street with restaurants and bars and open air stages for live performances. Some of the restaurants also show live football matches. Overall a pleasant experience.

So much fun and so many cats! It's a historical site so it's good to walk around and take pictures on the venetian sun, but also on one area there is a bar / grill with seating and music. But more importantly there were lots of cats! Will absolutely go again, but due to it being on the water there were a lot of mosquitoes so I would make sure to bring repellent or at least have bite cream for afterwards.

Cute cats but also a lot of mosquitos unfortunately. The views were nice and the place overall was very chill

We visited here mainly due to the cats. When we arrived, nothing was open. It was deserted except for some workmen cutting grass. We saw 5 cats. It was a long way to walk to see only 5 cats! We were very disappointed. What we didn't know was that a lot of places in Italy are closed on Monday. The Fort is open, but everything else isn't.

Perfect for relaxation! There are a few bars and restaurants on the one side, and just nature in the other side. It's worth a visit, especially in the last day of your trip when you want to refresh from Venice island's frenzy

Wow! An old fort that's open to the public. There's a stage, restaurants, a café, multiple art studios, and a cat rescue inside with tons of kitties! It is extremely fun and I wish we had more time to hang out. Best of all, it has a "locals" feel. Go visit and enjoy!!

Beautiful place to spend time feeding the free cats, letting children play or run around, drinking/ eat something with friends or just reading a book

A quite small mall located not far from the bus centrals. It has six floors but just a few shops with the highlight of the Lego exhibition on the fourth floor. Toilets are clean and easy to a access. What is quite nice about this mall is that it has a bistro at the sixth floor with outside seats too where they serve coffee and food and also a big book store next to it. People are nice, place was quite for a Saturday visit.

Shopping Mall on 6 floors located in Mestre City Center. Mostly clothes, however, on the last floor the bookstore and bar are located.

This was a nice department store. The clothes were well made and evident in pricing. Although there were some reasonably priced item that were on sale

This mall has several levels but not many shops inside. The supermarket on the lower level is quite pricey as is the department store that takes up most of the mall. Much better shops to look at by wandering around the city centre.

Awfully boring :( only place to buy from is the foodstore at bottom floor

A little bit outdated and needs to do something with branding to get a wider public and age. Who is talking is a shopping centre manager that open shopping centers i Russia and UK and branding is the most important thing to get the wider public. Store fittings are completely outdated and the navigation system really needs to be improved. I changed the navigation system in hyperstores and sales increased more than 30% within 6 weeks especially in the woman and children sections. Think about. Time to move forward. Last consideration it's the staff that needs a lot of attention. Needs new generations.

Good location before last stop to airport

We had a wonderful dining experience at this Italian bar and grill - the ambiance inside the restaurant was charming and welcoming, making it the perfect setting for a relaxing meal. Our server was fantastic, she spoke excellent English and was quick to take our order. The food was absolutely delicious, with the bruschetta being the best we have tasted since being in Italy. The spritzes were very affordable, and I tried both the Aperol and Hugo spritzes. When I asked if it was possible to have a raspberry spritz (even though it wasn’t on the menu), the waitress kindly made one up for me. It tasted amazing We will definitely return here if we’re ever back in Italy it’s a place worth revisiting!

Went there as all nearby places were closed. Clearly a place targeted for tourists, with prices much higher than anything around. The food was original, and pretty good. The double hamburger is huge (19€). Good vegetarian selection. The big problem was that they didn't accept card payment. It might be that their card machine was really broken, but they should write it in the entrance, and not keep a small post-it only near the cashier, easy to hide.

I had an absolutely fantastic time dining at Filanda Grill Garden. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was inviting and full of charm, a perfect setting for a relaxing meal. I ordered a burger, and I can confidently say it was nothing short of exceptional. Every element, from the perfectly grilled burger ,to the fresh, flavorful toppings and soft bun, was thoughtfully prepared and absolutely delicious. But what truly elevated the experience was the warmth and kindness of the staff. From the moment I walked in, I was met with genuine smiles and welcoming energy that made me feel instantly at home. It’s rare to find a place where the passion for food is matched by the heart behind the service. If you’re ever in Venezia, do yourself a favor and make this a stop. You won’t regret it.

Plenty choises in menu. Burrata with sauce was nice. Sliced beef and filetto steak was great, melting in mouth! Potatoe sider was so so and needed some nice sauce. Lucky perfect oliveoil and best balsamico ever covered situation. Mascarpone in tiramisu was delicious. Fast and polite service, prices was following the quality. We were pleased, specially because it was first good restaurant experience after 4 days in Venice 😅 thanks and warm recommendation.

Amazing food. We only had two nights in Mestre and we ate here both nights. The waitress was so lovely and accommodating. Thank you from the Australian Family.

It was one of the best restaurants in Mestre. It's in the city centre easy to approach and the whole vibe in the restaurant is very cosy but still very stylish. The food was extremly good we tried there some pasta and grilled beef and they were really delicious. The waiters were really kind. So i can only recommend this place.

The food was good, however I could have finished my food before my partner got his, if I started eating right away. Lovely atmosphere, very hot sitting outside. Cheap alcohol, the Hugo was fantastic!

Amazing pizzeria in Mestre! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing meal. The staff were very friendly, approachable, and easy to talk to. The place was clean and well-kept, which made the experience even better. The pizzas were delicious. I would definitely recommend this place and would happily come back again.

Honestly the best food I had in Venice by far!!! Not the usual pretentious italian touristy place you can find in the center. I love every meal. The pasta was delicious, perfectly prepared, beautiful presentation. The pizza was also delicious, the dough, everything! And the tiramisu is homemade, perfection. I recommend 100000%

Excellent food and it's a very nice place with patio seating as well as indoor. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Far better food-experience than Venice. We spent 3 days in Italy but visited this place twice. Excellent ingredients and meals, and the yellow cherry tomatoes are heaven. I highly recommend this place!

It was a blind booking, as it was the nearest restaurant to our hotel. Best choiche we could have made! Great staff, perfect food, it was more than 20 of us, still, we got our food served in like 10 minutes. There was a karaoke event as well, with all the italian energy and love if life, so , i strongly recommend the place!!!

Staff was great, amazing, fast, curious, kind and fun. The pizza was good. The burger was below average from anything I have had in italy. A patty that was preformed, dry and reminded me of bad fast food frozen burgers from the 80’s. I kind of expected more from an Italian place.

The restaurant was amazing! My family loved the food as it was our first time experiencing Italian food in Italy. The atmosphere of this place was very nice, clean and welcoming. I ordered Cacio e Pepe pizza. Absolutely delicious! My husband ordered something called Peperani? Unfortunately, he couldn’t remember as he enjoyed it as well. My kids had pasta ragu. We all were very satisfied with what we ordered.

Food is good, bar is nice, ambiance is amazing. We had to wait 1:30h for our entree to arrive, lobster and it was basically just shell with 4 little pieces of meat. Like i would have rather had pizza at that point

Very very good Sushi and Tapas in a Restaurant with a nice view over Venedig. The service was not as good as you would imagine in such a sophisticated Restaurant. Thats the reason for four Stars.

Food was okey. But took too long, service people were friendly. Everything was a bit dirty. Especially the tpiöettes and the floor.

There are italian staff for why is soo expensive. Without them i think it would be better like not eating "gold" anymore you know....the food i didn't liked. The positive aspect is the beautiful view.

Unfortunately a really bad experience. We waited a really long time for our food. The sushi was not good at all and expensive. We paid 8 Euro for a bottle of Coca Cola! Wouldn't recommend

I choose Aki for my wife's birthday dinner during our Venezia journey. But there was not a good service when we entered the entrance, the man with glasses told us "this is a restaurant, why are you here?" We had a reservation but he did not ask the name politely and service professionally. Venezia is a wonderful city except this restaurant.

You pay for the view. Upscale "wanna be" Japanese Fusion. For a restaurant with that price range you should expect a decent rice. The scallops were tasteless. The tempura to much and to greasy. The Wagyu was delicious. Staff was friendly and professional.

My friend and I were thinking about eating at another pizza place but, it was rather crowded so we kept walking and found this place- I thought the atmosphere was comfy- the service lady was rather nice- it was quiet night- and I'm not a huge fan of thin crust pizzas but their pizza was exceptionally delicious! I would recommend this place-

We are there cause near by our Hotel and it’s really nice Italian food! Especially for me the seafood! I can eat this everyday hehe

The food is excellent! The steak is tender and cooked perfectly and full of flavor. No English is spoken but very friendly staff. Amazing quality of food. Try the Tiramisu!!!

Ate there tonight. They do understand very basic English and one of the Chefs can speak English too. Wonderful pizza, delicious desserts. Down to earth food and reasonable prices. Don't eat the breadsticks on the table as each packet will cost you 2 euros. You're better off trying a couple of the great starters!

very good pizza a pasta service excellent,we will come back again for very good 🍕

Visited here on a local recommendation. Pizza was absolutely delicious. My friends had a peppercorn steak and fish dishes, which were apparently very good, too. The half liter of wine was surprisingly good, despite my worries. Very friendly waitress. Would definitely go here again if we were staying longer! We used the English and Italian menus to figure out what we wanted when telling the waitress--no problems there.

This was opposite our hotel after hour 250 km bike trip. They gave us a menu in English which was helpful. The steak was perfect as was the other food including pizza and salads and the wine flowed. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful Opera House, just 8 min walk from St Marks Square. You can get a family ticket for (€30) along with an audio guide to enjoy the self guided tour. Ideal to be inside somewhere seeing this little gem on a hot day. We had a rehearsal going on too. We didn't need to pre book, just walked in and got the tickets. It was not very crowded.

A stunning theatre with a wonderful history. The “Phoenix” has risen a number of times, most recently after a fire in 1996. In the tour, there is a touching tribute to the late, great Maria Callas, who performed here in many roles over many years. The ball room and Apollo rooms are also very beautiful.

Yo 🎤 lemme drop a verse about that Venice vibe — La Fenice 🔥, the phoenix that survives. Three times down, but it rose from the flame, Every comeback stronger — remember that name. 🌟 Stepped in the spot, man, jaw hit the floor, Gold drippin’ from the ceiling, couldn’t ask for more. 💎 Architecture tight, sound pure as a prayer, Every note in the air, man, magic everywhere. 🎶 Italy flexin’ — maybe world’s best show, A theatre reborn, with that eternal glow. ✨ Take the private tour, don’t rush, just cruise, Let the velvet, the vibes, and the echoes seduce. 😎 So when you hit Venice, don’t you dare skip this, Catch that Fenice flow, it’s pure bliss. 💫 From ashes to glory, that’s the scene — A masterpiece reborn, La Fenice, the queen. 👑🔥

A breathtaking historic theater – worth the visit Teatro La Fenice is one of the most beautiful opera houses I’ve seen. The interior is grand and elegant, full of history and charm. Even if you’re not attending a performance, the guided tour gives a fascinating glimpse into Venice’s cultural past. The ticket price is a bit high for a short visit, but the experience and atmosphere make it worthwhile.

1. Atmosphere & Architecture The theatre is absolutely gorgeous — gilded, ornate, with that period elegance. Golden decorations, frescoes, chandeliers, woodwork, plush red or rose‑velvet seating, all contribute to an immersive experience. There’s a powerful sense of history: La Fenice has burned down and been restored multiple times (notably a major fire in 1996), yet each reconstruction has honored the original style. That gives the place layers of resilience, almost mythic quality, which heightens the emotional impact. 2. Acoustics & Performance The sound is often praised — many reviews say that the acoustics are excellent; the theatre skillfully balances the orchestra, the singers, and the ambiance so that even from the boxes the intimacy isn’t lost. When there is a live performance (opera, symphony, ballet), everything seems to fall into place: the space, the architecture, the music and performance combine in a way that seems to transport people — many say they get chills. 3. Cultural Significance & Emotion La Fenice has hosted many premieres by Verdi, Rossini, Donizetti, etc. It’s a place where musical history was made. That gives a visit or performance an extra layer of weight and meaning. The restoration after tragedies (fires), the passion to rebuild “com’era, dov’era” (“as it was, where it was”) adds a sense of phoenix‑like rebirth. It’s fitting symbolically. 4. Accessibility & Visitor Experience Audio guides get good marks. They help bring the history, the architecture, stories of past performances alive for visitors. The cost of a visit is often considered reasonable for what one gets (€15-€25 for Sanpaolo). Some family‑pricing options exist. #mostoere #mosinitiatief #bethelselfcatering #9barnardstreetgeorge

Beautiful venue with excellent orchestra and conductor. Classical music doesn't get any better than this. Most seats are great. The location is great. Many great restaurants nearby. Everyone is helpful. And oh, the music.

La Fenice, absolutely gorgeous. Whether you're an opera lover or not, take in a show just for the experience. Wozzeck was fantastic, although an intermission wouldn't have gone astray. Be sure to purchase your tickets several months in advance as they sell fast!

Very photogenic spiral staircase linking two parts of an ancient palazzo- not too bad a climb and great views from the top. Tucked away down a tiny alleyway just off the main drag - you wouldn’t know it was there unless you were looking for it! Beautifully lit up at night

Its cool. Its in a very unassuming tight location. We didn't bother paying and climbing so we stood outside the tall black chain link fence and got as good of pictures as possible. 10mins (plus the anytime awesome walk to and from) to see it. Then you can say you saw that old twisting tower from the Rick Steves Venice 🇮🇹 video.

It was ok. You can get some views of the city and there was a small exhibition. If you only took a photo from the ground looking up you won’t have missed much.

You will love this place, the views from the tower are great This town just such history can’t wait to come back again I highly recommend it

Tickets a bit steep (haha) but the spiral staircase is a real jewel and the views impressive. Worth the climb!

It was one of our main stops in Venice, and I would say this is a hidden gem of the city. The entrance costs €9 per person, and €7 is the reduced price for people under 26. I believe the view from the top is definitely worth the price.

Amazing view over Venice, especially if you’re looking to capture a perfect shot with St. Mark’s Campanile in the background.

Absolutely beautiful Basilica in Venice that is worth visiting. It is a wonder of architecture and houses some amazing artwork including Titian's impressive Assumption which is above the altar. If you are visiting Venice, this Basilica is well wort the visit.

It's nice to see the skill of humankind in the building of the Basilica, the many sculptures and paintings and the love of preserving and restoration. We are not religious, so to us, this is a place to appreciate the skill of the artisans. The entrance fee is fine and we were treated kindly by the staff. It would be nice to have an audio tour to learn more about the various works of art and the history and meaning behind them.

Loved this beautiful church. Very unique. We wandered the streets trying to find it and of course walked past it but came back as we saw the tower. The art is incredible. The tombs were informative. The fact that this is a Franciscan church (the Venetian term for Friars in Frari - sounds a bit like Ferrari) gives it the plain facade and you can see the tension of trying to keep things simple and the larger church’s imposition of grandiose art. A couple of unique items with the clocks.

The church might not look like much from the outside but it is really unique and impressive from the inside. It's worth the 5 euro entrance fee. The staff is very friendly. There are audio guides available. There is plenty of artwork to contemplate in many unique styles.

One of the great churches of Venice. Burial place of Titian and Canova, housing great monuments to them and some of the doges. Filled to the brim with monuments that would comprise a whole museum. Especially interesting is a statue by Donatello.

A stunning and peaceful church in the heart of Venice. The interior is breathtaking, especially Titian’s Assumption of the Virgin. A must-see for anyone who loves art, history, and quiet beauty.

One of my favorite churches in Venice after San Marco. Stunning works of art by famous painters from venice. Stunning wooden choir stalls.

Fabulous and iconic Venetian church, designed by Baldassare Longhena (1598-1682), it looks great inside and out. Its characteristic dome can be seen from many angles across Venice. With the outside newly renovated, it looks better than ever.

The basilica itself is free, so definitely worth a visit. To get a view from the top, you have to go there to scan the qr code to book a slot. There's quite a few stairs up, and it's tight and windy but the view is lovely. However, it is very tight at the top and I think they let slightly too many people go up there. I think half the group size would be much better. Bare in mind too that once you're up there, you can't leave till the tour guide says you can. It's about half an hour up there.

This is of course one of the primary sites of interest in Venice and filled with great works by the master Titian. The main altar too is spectacular. The marble flooring directly under the famous dome is not currently accessible and there is some repair work going on. The church is free to enter.

A rather impressive sight from the outside (immersive and very detail, white marble with plenty of details carved), very nicely located for "viewing" all the way from St. Marco. Amazing sight indeed. Rather simplistic in the inside but still a marvel of architecture!

One of the most photographed objects in Venice but with a rather uninteresting interior. The best light is just before sunrise coming into Canal Grande from the lagoon with the vaporetto.

Lovely place, in a fab location. I did the dome tour too, which was good. Make sure you're on time though, cos Mr Man doesn't wait for sluggards! It's a load of steps up, and there are a couple of half interesting spots on the way up, but it's not like going up St Paul's. It's all about the view from the top, which is pretty good, and not too high, but its not a patch on the view from the Campanile (or St Georgio), mainly because you can only look out to the north over the Grand Canal. It's a bit cramped too.

Beautiful domed basilica on the water. The outside is best views in early morning or late evening from the bridge or across the grand canal.

I enjoyed Peggy Guggenheim. I am also a fan of contemporary/ Modern Art! I am fascinated at how creative and ahead of their times the artists that she collected were in the 1930's. Get the audio version, the back story helps you understand the relationships that Peggy had (or did not have) with the artists. If you don't like contemporary art, go for the view it is beautiful overlooking the canal or in the garden. Venezia!!! Venice is eternity itself.❤️

A must see when in Venice, totally worth the visit. I also recommend spending the extra €7 (on the steep side, to be fair) for the audioguide since there's an abundance of information regarding the artists and the collection in general (and the collectors themselves, of course). While a small gallery, the switch from garden to rooms to terrace (with exhibits) gives a nice and sophisticated feeling itself. You'll find the chance to see original Kandinsky, Picasso, Dali and Ernest (and many other famous contemporaries). I hope this helps 😊 P.S. while we booked in advance for early morning, there was no difficulty to also purchase tickets there. However, there was much more visitors than we expected, especially this early (first hours of opening).

A timeless favorite in Venice and one of the most enjoyable museum experiences in the city. Entry was €16 per person, and absolutely worth it. The collection brings together some of the most iconic works of modern art — Pollock, Miró, Magritte, Calder, and of course, Peggy’s own spirit running through the house. The museum is compact but deeply personal, with pieces displayed in what was once her home overlooking the Grand Canal. We started with coffee and a slice of chocolate cake at the café (a bit ordinary, but the view made up for it) before exploring the galleries. Intimate, vibrant, and full of history — it’s easy to see why this is a favorite spot for so many visitors.

I am not a huge modern art fan but found several pieces that spoke to me. The gardens and terrace over the Grand Canal on the other hand were spectacular. I would have loved to have visited wgen it was her home! I didn’t expect as many steps as there were but was also sore from almost two weeks of walking around Venice by the time I was here. Glad I went!

Beautiful historic complex by the Canale Grande and quite an impressive collection. They also have temporary exhibitions of good quality. Be mindful though that accessibility is only warranted in the sculpture garden. Everywhere else there’s stairs up and down into and in the buildings.

Probably the most visited museum for modern art in Venice. To avoid waiting for an hour in front of the ticket office, buy your ticket on the internet. The art is safe, e.g. Mrs Guggenheim preferred to invest in known artists rather than taking risks. Much of the pleasure of coming here is negatively affected by the affluence of visitors. Plan your visit accordingly if you can.

WORLD CLASS! 👍👍👍👍👍 Here you will find a lot of the best artists of the best, a top place to visit in Venice. 🥰 They have a nice café. ☕🍷🍺 Entrance 15€, discount of you are owner 70 years old. 🙏 Picasso, Miro, Kandinsky and more of those guys. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

5 stars is only for the structure itself - inside and out it's a beautiful old building which in the past was a hostel and a warehouse for the city's German (Tedeschi) merchants and their imports. After being destroyed by fire in 1505, the Fondaco dei Tedeschi was rebuilt in a Renaissance architectural style. Nowadays it's a 4-story boutique shopping mall for luxury brands under the DFS Group ( a global travel retailer of luxury products based in Hong Kong). If you're looking for information about the Rooftop Terrace, search maps for: "T Fondaco Rooftop Terrace".

Fondaco dei Tedeschi is a unique shopping destination in the heart of Venice, blending historic architecture with modern luxury. Located in a beautifully restored 16th-century building just steps from the Rialto Bridge, it offers a truly unforgettable experience. Visitors can explore a wide selection of prestigious brands such as Gucci, Bottega Veneta, and Armani, as well as high-quality local crafts including Murano glass and Burano lace. For food lovers, the on-site restaurant Amo, led by renowned chef Massimiliano Alajmo, offers a refined culinary experience. One of the highlights is the rooftop terrace, which provides breathtaking 360-degree views of Venice, including the Grand Canal and the Rialto Bridge. Entry is free, but advance booking is recommended. Fondaco dei Tedeschi is the perfect place for those seeking a mix of culture, history, and high-end shopping in a one-of-a-kind Venetian setting.

* the most luxury shopping center in Venice, in 4 floor. Expensive prices even in sale. * Escalator is available to go up and elevators both to go up and down, there are some spaces and chairs to sit and rest, food and drinks are available in entrance, your internet work well there, you can take your pet in. Not very busy. * it’s not only a shopping center but also a beautiful exhibition in such a historical atmosphere. You can find all famous and known brands there. Woman’s and man’s fashion, jewelry, beauty, watches, gourmet, gifts, … and also event pavilion and terrace.

THE ROOFTOP TERRACE: The view from the rooftop terrace is just spectacular, the words can not describe it. The viewing terrace is situated close to the Rialto bridge and I think that nowhere else you can see the panoramic views of the lagoon city as well as from this roof. We were blessed with the lovely weather on the day which made it even more memorable. Be aware that you need to reserve a time slot to access the viewing platform. The access is free, however be mindful that tickets get reserved well in advance, so try to plan ahead if you can. The views are absolutely wort to wait for ⭐️

Shopping centre in the centre of Venice with high end brands if you want to burn cash. Lovely architecture inside. They offer a rooftop view of the city. You can book or do a walk in. It is free but would recommend to book as it can be busy. Lovely views of the grand canal, worth a visit

It’s the most beautiful and artistic department store I’ve ever seen 😍 And there is a rooftop where you can see Grand Canal in Venice at a glance! The admission is free for the rooftop, but you should make a reservation online in advance and you can stay here for 15 minutes. The view is breathtaking, It’s also majestic in department store so it’s worth visiting ✨

It is essential to book 15 minute slot on the roof viewing platform. The views are amazing in every direction. The shopping centre is cool too.

this restaurant has a sophisticated and elegant ambiance, with professional (if not particularly warm) service. for antipasti, we opted for the fried pumpkin flowers and vegetables which unfortunately is not worth the price. the zucchini was cut too thick, making it bland and unremarkable, and the pumpkin flowers lacked flavor. the tartar sauce, however, was the real star of the plate, it was rich and delicious. for our first courses, the ravioli was flavorful, though the truffle aroma was more of a whisper than a statement. the gnocchi turned out to be a single, oversized gnocco, which was a bit underwhelming in taste, though the mushrooms accompanying it were excellent. a small redemption came when the waiter surprised us with a traditional venetian carnival dessert (very delicious) that left a much better final impression. still, even given the prime location in the heart of venice, the pricing felt excessive: charging €7 for a small bottle of water is outrageous.

Elegant but pricey restaurant with great food Place Stylish and leaning toward the fancy side. Beautifully decorated with a theatre-inspired vibe. Located in a quiet area, right next to a hotel and the Teatro La Fenice. Staff Service was professional, polite, and very friendly. Everything felt attentive and of high quality. The lady host seemed very educated, but at the same time, felt cold and slightly rude. Not sure if that was the intention. Food The steak was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, with sides that complemented it well. Dessert was very good, though on the small side for the price. Prices Prices are on the higher end, but fair for the quality - in some terms. However, the menu was confusing as some items appeared priced for two people but were actually per person. On top of that, the cover charge and service charge felt excessive and unnecessary. The price for water also seemed exaggerated.

Ricardo was awesome!!! He took such great care of us as we sat in the comfy chairs on the patio out front. Weather was perfect and the cocktails were too!

Came across this beautiful restaurant/bar by accident. So glad we did! It was so elegant, we could not help but stop off for a glass of vino.

Don’t go here. It’s a tourist trap. They try to rip you off. The service is awful, they take as long as possible so the tables stay filled. Other wise it would be very empty. We waited close to 30 min before even ordering food. Some dishes the force you to order two orders. So the risotto (which was hard and undercooked) is £52. They make you order two large portions. There is no love music or snacks, but they hit you with a €5 cover charge per person. The food was just ok, both are dishes were loaded with salt, nothing was memorable. But the price was … €200 and we didn’t even have a bottle of wine. Then after all this they charge you 10% service fee! In Italy, a cover charge and service fee ?? I’m sure they only do that to tourists and hope they get away with. So if you want to pay service fees, for the worst service you have ever had, come here.

TOURIST TRAP TOURIST TRAP TOURIST TRAP Slow service, you take a seat and they charge you automatically 10€ fee per person+ 10% tip on the top of your bill. Also they tried to charge us 7€ per bottle of water we didn't have. Aperol spritz 12€ per glass. Wasn't worth it. Wasn't any bigger and definitely not stronger than any others for half price around St. Marks Square. To be honest I had better Aperol on Murano for 3,50€. Mushrom risotto was ok. 28€ per portion. Bill was 125€ for 2 portions of risotto and 4 aperol spritz is ridiculous.

WHAT AN AMAZING PLACE! We visited Taverna La Fenice on my birthday, for a cocktail (or two) and there we met the lovely bartender, who was absolutely MAGNIFICENT! We were so impressed with him and the service (faultless and to perfection) that we booked a table for the following night, sadly our last night in Venice. The food was Michelin standard, the atmosphere was magical and the staff were amazing and very friendly...except for who we think was the 'head waiter'...a blonde haired man in a blue suit and a red tie who was completely arrogant and thought himself above all other staff and obviously customers! He was constantly standing and talking to the couple on the next table, whom he obviously knew well, whilst we were trying to enjoy the ambience of the place. Not very considerate of him and very offputting. He had the task of creating our crepes at the table, no conversation with us! Almost as though it was beneath him to do this task. He made absolutely no eye contact, which made us feel very uncomfortable and even when he served the dishes to us, he could not bring himself to speak to us, just to grunt something as he handed them over - not professional at all. He then went back to talking to the couple on the next table and waited until he had finished the conversation with them and as he was moving off almost shouted at us, 'It's good, yes?' How rude. How unprofessional. How ignorant. This 'head waiter' or whoever he was, needs to pay more attention to how fabulous all the other staff are, instead of being 'puffed up' and full of his own arrogance. Ridiculous man. HOWEVER, do not let this man you off...the food is the best we tasted in Venice, the atmosphere of the restaurantis is amazing, you are made to feel special by the other staff and the bartender outside was MAGNIFICENT (I wish I had asked his name...he was so lovely) he was worth his weight in gold - what a marvellous front man for the restaurant. Exceptional. You must experience it for yourself...hopefully the 'head waiter' will leave for pastures new soon (he needs to) and let everyone else just get on with doing a spectacular job in a very professional and faultless way. Eccezionale! We will be back on our next visit to Venice. Gary and Alison Brookes x

Tried 2 of their vegan options, and they were good - but not the best. They freshly prepared the pizza so there was a 15-20 min wait time. Pizza combined with the canal view was a great experience overall.

Take out only, but definitely worth a visit. Delicious ready made sandwiches with many vegan options. Made to order pizzas, again with numerous vegan options. Very generous portions. And all the staff were helpful and pleasant. Great experience and delicious food!

We arrived VERY hungry and ordered a sirio vegan pizza and a vegan focaccia. My partner preferred the focaccia and I preferred the pizza: both were 10/10 and came out very quickly. Good price and portions too.

Small stall in the wall provides many different vegan pizzas with vegan cheese 🧀 even vegan blue cheese. So yummy. No seating spaces but great spots around the corner to sit on stairs and enjoy the scrumptious delight. During high times take a bit of time with you. We had. About 20 minutes wait but then the pizza was fresh and hot. Crunchy crust and melted cheese 😋

We had the 'normal' size carbonara pizza (€9.5) and the special calzone (€9) and they were epic. We had a short 10-15 minute wait from ordering to receiving the pizzas despite it being quite quiet, but the wait was very much worth it! We ate in the adjacent square and watched gondelas float by. A Venice must for pizza lovers with prices and pizzas like that!

I had hoped the Pizza Carbonara would come with a fantastic Carbonara sauce. Instead it was a „deconstructed Carbonara“, so egg, cheese and Guanciale were all on the pizza, but in their own. It was still a tasty pizza for a very good price, but I think, if this was a pizza with white sauce (in the form of Carbonara) it could have gotten 5 stars from me.

Pizzeria L’Angelo offers Neapolitan-style pizza. Unfortunately, in Venice it’s not allowed to use traditional wood-fired ovens, but even so, the pizzas are authentic, tasty, and made with good-quality ingredients at a very fair price. We ordered the Diavola and the Quattro Stagioni – both were delicious. The Diavola wasn’t particularly spicy, while the Quattro Stagioni was hearty and filling.

Corner shop with fresh sandwich, pastries, and coffee. Gelato of course. We tried the sweet Ricotta pastry & vanilla croissant with our cappuccino. So fresh & so delicious. Service was good, but dont be in a rush. Only standing room to eat & drink. Turns into bar at night.

Amazing cappuccio and cornetto! Seriously great coffee. And a lively atmosphere. The baristas were having fun and make a caffé that’s fantastico!

Tiny café with no seating and not much to choose from. Honestly it didn’t look like much at first, and my son was a bit skeptical. We each had a chocolate croissant and a cappuccino. The cappuccino was great, but also the tiniest one I’ve ever had. The real surprise was the croissant: warm, fresh, and seriously good. We went in with low expectations and left happy. That said, the staff wasn’t particularly friendly.

The boss is wonderful, really original and super nice people, including coffee

We stopped by every day for a morning Cappuccino and a sandwich. At times we had them to go (a 0.50 euro surcharge) and sometimes we stayed just outside, watching the gondolas pass by. The staff was accommodating to English speaking tourists; some sandwiches were served hot (warmed up in the microwave before serving) but we didn't expect them to be all fresh from the kitchen/oven, the place is very small. One morning I had too many things to carry back to room and one staff member offered a tray to carry everything, and asked to have it returned afterwards. I didn't use it but I appreciated the thought. I would have no problem going back again while in Venice.

Had both breakfast and lunch here. So local experience all the gondolieri as they stop in for their morning fix. Enjoyed fresh croissant with cream filling. Partake in the ham/formagio and the veggie spinach/formagio calzones. Not cheap, but not bad either understanding Venice prices. Highly recommend stopping by for an expresso.

Great food and decent pricing. The staff don’t have a lot of patience, so be ready with your order by the time it comes for you to order.

Estro offers modern, creative cuisine that still honors Venetian tradition. Every dish is beautifully executed, blending local flavors with contemporary touches.

Phenomenal spot for dinner. Each plate is not only beautifully prepared but has a great taste to it. The wine pairings really accentuates each dish’s flavors and kudos to the staff for finding some good bottles to connect the food with. This dinner and the ambience inside is a great date night, dinner while visiting Venice as tourists or anything else in between. All will love it.

Had the tasting menu here - all good to excellent but lacked a certain something. I’m not sure Italian cooking overly suited to small plates to be honest. Worth a try. €65 euros for 3 courses and dessert. Ok value I suppose.

Tucked away from Venice’s tourist flow, Estro Vino e Cucina delivers a lunch experience that feels like it belongs in the Michelin conversation. The dining room strikes a balance between modern and rustic: sleek lines, warm wood, and a subdued hum that lets the food and wine take center stage. We opted for the tasting menu, which opened with an amuse that was elegantly plated. A standout pasta course featured handmade noodles with local seafood, the sauce: briny, slightly sweet, with just enough depth to coat without overwhelming. The pasta was al dente perfection, with a silkiness that carried the flavors of the sea. Vegetables were treated with equal reverence: a layered dish of seasonal produce showcased acidity and crunch. Even the simplest elements felt intentional, from the interplay of oils and herbs to the way acidity lifted each bite. The wine program is serious here, with a curated list of natural wines. The staff guided us toward pairings that were spot-on, crisp whites highlighting seafood salinity, mineral-driven pours elevating the vegetal notes. The service staff was knowledgeable. Lunch at Estro was memorable, refined, and deeply satisfying. Highly recommended.

A restaurant with an impressive selection of wine. The food was good - above average. I had the poached egg with porcini and cheese foam which I adored. The egg was slightly under-done. The Russian salad with crab was good, if a little bit too smothered in mayonnaise, and the monk fish was a little overcooked.

We liked this place. Extensive and quality wine list. Food was good but uneven. Some items were next level amazing and some were just ok. It was always creative and high quality ingredients though. Space is small and charming.

I booked a table and mortgaged my credit card online. But when I walked into the restaurant, they repeatedly confirmed whether I had a reservation or not. When I sat down, no one greeted me and gave me the menu. Most of the dishes were not explained, especially desserts. I can't believe they brought me cookies from the supermarket and said "from their mom's kitchen?" A restaurant with no advantages.
