We had three dishes with prosecco. All three were fresh and delicious. Sitting in the piazza, watching the people, and nibbling on the delicious seafood was living la dolce vita! The octopus was moist and served on a plate with toothpicks. Funny is that the octopus, although uniquely prepared Italian style, was good but not my favorite dish! We got these snails that were very small but packed with a salty flavor. There were the perfect bar snack! They were my favorite. We also got the tuna which was seared and covered with pistachios. It was served sliced. Yummy!! The chef was gracious and posed for pictures. I would definitely put this in my permanent rotation if I lived here!! I hope to be back. And soon! read more

La Folperia is the best! We've been 3 times in the past few weeks and have loved everything. Delicious, traditional food from the Veneto. They have a deal with the bar next door that you can buy your food from the stand and sit at their tables if you get a drink. read more

Wow! Best street food ever! Nothing like it any place. Boiled octopus is original in presentation and recipe. Crusted tuna is incomparable. Melts in your mouth. A must go out, find it, eat it. Enjoy it. My most enjoyable meal in the Italian cities traveled so far on this trip. read more

La Folperia is amazing. Family-owned for generations, it brings to one of the most beautiful piazzas in Italy top-notch flavor and quality and freshness of seafood. The offer depends on season and market and there is a guarantee of satisfaction and smiles all-over. The owners are siblings, Max and Barbara. They spend the morning cooking and preparing delicious recipes and starting around 6 they appear near bar Dei Osei... Get there early if you want their specialty, the "folpeto". Everything else is also excellent: "bovoeti, masenete", etc. (no, you won't find these names in a dictionary, as they are dialect... super local... it does not get any more sustainable that this). Endorsed by Slowfood. For a glass of Prosecco ask the adjacent bar... best combo in the whole Veneto region!! read more
