I ate at Frary's many days ago, but waited to post this as I've mulled on and processed my…read moreexperiences in Venice and here. Precisely, I had 2 meals at Frary's, because after the first one all I could do the next day running around Venetian alleys was gush about it to my gf. Over those 2 meals, we had the tzatziki - a bowlful of yogurt-spice delight that we scraped the last of with the excellent bread they serve, the hummus - another dollop of chickpea deliciousness, the dolma - which was served with delicious somewhat sweet carrot dip (muhammara I think) one day, but equally good curried babaghanoush the next day. For the mains, the rice-yogurt dish (whose name I've sadly forgotten) was served with steaming carrots and other vegetables and an utter delight, so we got it both days. The falafel was crunchy, fresh, green, brown, irresistible, hot, steaming, crumbly, did I say irresistible? Frary's the kind of place you can't practice restraint and just want to get seconds of everything and stuff yourself. The manouri dessert is interesting, served with a light cheese and large pieces of apricot (I think it was apricot). Lastly, my favorite spritzer ever was served here, some kinda ginger apertif. It was reminiscent of the routine aperol, but something was better about it - perfectly bitter and again just simply irresistible (and non alcholic too). So when I come back to Venice, whenever that be (but it'll have to happen, does anyone manage to go to Venice just once?), good chance I'll make a straight beeline to Frary's, and not the classic italian trattorie and ristorantes. La Dolce Vita!

This Mediterranean restaurant offers a very nice and welcoming interior with a charming ambiance,…read morethough sitting right by the door might bring in a slight breeze which felt nice. Payment is conveniently handled at the front when you are finished. One of the standout features of this establishment is that they are certified gluten-free by the AIC, making it a reliable destination for those with celiac disease. Their menu clearly marks numerous gluten-free options, and the staff is attentive, promptly providing safe accompaniments like rice cakes once a celiac diagnosis is mentioned instead of the pita. For the meal, we started with the mix di formaggi, a delightful selection of Greek cheeses. The main course was the mansaf vegetariano, featuring spiced rice paired with vegetables and yogurt. For dessert, we shared three options: the berry cheesecake, which was easily the star of the menu and a must-try; the rich chocolate cake; and the pistachio yogurt, which was unique though worth noting that it leaned a bit too heavily into a savory, spicy profile rather than a sweet one. Overall, it is a wonderful and safe choice for anyone looking for reliable gluten-free Mediterranean dining.

This is basically the new generation of "classic" Bologna restaurants.

The staff is, as expected, helpful, the wine list is quite good, and the mascarpone is off the charts (seriously). The bottom line here is that this is as good as anything else you're likely to find, and a heck of a lot more affordable to boot. Sooo, go!

The hotel we're staying at recommended it again and I thought I'm so excited I'm going back! Big mistake. I sat across from my daughter while eating, who looked between gagging and crying. She ordered the gnocchi with Bolognese sauce. It tasted like American barbecue and was very one note. I had my favorite seafood risotto. There were literally three small pieces of shrimp and one small piece of fish and when I say small, I mean about an inch in diameter. No mussels or octopus like I remember. That's it.
