I had the clams with white wine garlic sauce and pasta and my wife had the lasagna. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was rich and flavorful. Fresh basil and tomatoes tossed in as well. I was grateful for the extra bread on the table so I could soak up any renaming sauce. The lasagna was probably the best lasagna I had on our 10 day trip in Venice and I ate all the way from Lido to Mestre. The lasagna had a folded in cheese that had a smooth, velvet like texture and was amazingly rich. Great little family owned restaurant with an awesome staff. From the outside it doesn't look like much but the food is definitely worth stopping in for.

I had heard of this pub based on the recommendations of locals in Mestre. It's a neighborhood…read morejoint, I hesitate to use the word dive, but it's essentially what a real local bar should be. If you are visiting Venice and the northeast Mestre area, I would recommend it based solely on the authenticity factor, something missing from many of the taverns in Venice proper. The pub has a American theme throughout while respecting traditional Italian bar culture. Photos of the Blues Brothers, various bands, and sports (NHL) abound while classic American and British rock blast over the stereo. The barkeep is Claudio, who makes sure to take care of all of his patrons. The night started with the three of us drinking spritz, made of prosecco and campari. From there we graduated to a variety of wines and eventually beer. Throughout our Saturday evening, the staff tended to us with snacks and cichetti, all gratis. The wines are top of their class and all extremely affordable. The craft beer selection on tap is small (6ish), but superb, in fact the witbier was one of the best I've tasted, anywhere. Based on the service alone I can highly recommend Le Due Ochette. Make a good impression on Claudio and he might send you home with a bottle of wine. Add in the selection and neighborhood atmosphere, and the decision to spend your evening here is a no-brainer.

We do love Cicchetti and some bar-hopping. And this is a new place we've discovered this time…read morearound in Venice. Location is very nice, right at a pretty trendy canal, filled with lots of restaurants and bars. Right next to is an excellent gelato place. It's quite small inside with few tables, many just hang around outside - and why not, the location at the canale is a pretty spot. We did manage though to get some seats inside. Our Bulldog was very welcome here as well. The various cicchetti are presented at the counter. There are some classics of course, but also some very innovative creations. We went for the latter. There was gorgonzola with strawberry, radicchio with brie cheese, pesto topped with an anchovie and mushrooms, mashed fava beans with pulp and mashed fava with goats cheese and a cherry. All really wonderful combinations. Our favorite were the radicchio and the fava/goat cheese. Surely something to recreate back home. Staff was very friendly, we felt very welcome here. And instead of focussing on Aperol, Select and Prosecco, it's mostly about white and red wine here. And they have an excellent selection of wine. Not all cheap, but definitely worth the money. We especially loved the Pinot Nero "Terre di Giotto". A brillant cicchetti bar. Definitely a place we come back to next time in Venice.

This is a relatively new enoteca and osteria in the Santa Croce sestiere of Venice.

We grabbed a plateful of cicchetti here as a fast, late lunch and weren't disappointed. The toppings were tasty and fresh and the staff pleasant and accommodating. The 'ombre' wine was decent and cheap - in total we paid less than €10 for 8 cichetti, a glass of water and a glass of wine. Perfect! When I come back I'd love to try the osteria side as the portions looked impressive and fresh. For now, on the basis of the cichetti alone and the friendly staff, it's a solid four stars. It's also well-located for the station and the Rialto bridge so an easy place to reach from the main sights in the centre.

There were 2 tables next to me were locals came in and were greeted, they didn't have to say anything else and the owner brought them wine and samplings of cicchetti he had for the day. Service was outstanding and intimate. The entire menu and was explained so well and recommendations made. We even had our napkins replaced twice For a quick lunch we started with the local made beer which was excellent. Next came the house salad which was nothing short of amazing. The pic says it all. Perfectly fresh cut veg with balanced flavors, a hint and S&P with vinegar and you are good to go Lastly the raw seafood platter is much try. Truly great restaurants here will have it since you will only have the freshest and best stuff to represent. Heavenly and well put together with so much thought and prep into it.

After a few moments we ordered some wine and grabbed a seat at the bench across from the bar. There were lots of choices from wine to liquor to beer, but we thought we should get wine since it's technically a "wine bar". We ended up staying for a while and each had two glasses of wine (4€ each glass). This is pretty affordable and the pours were not light. Overall, it's a nice place to grab a drink but not too busy or loud on a weeknight. A good experience.
