I can still remember biting through the thick but airy focaccia to the crisp bottom - I have no idea how they get this texture so perfect but it might be one of the best focaccia's I've had in my entire life. We shared 3 slices between the 3 of us so we could try them all. The mushroom and proscuitto one was my favorite, but I also really liked the spicy salami one and the tomato pesto. All the ingredients tasted so fresh and paired so well together. I was so happy after this meal and would definitely recommend this spot for anyone in Venice!

My daughter Italian was pretty good but mine was horrible. The decor was very welcoming. The presentation of the food and the taste was definitely authentic and it was delicious. There was a large selection of wine and we tried a few of them. We ended our meal the traditional way with Limoncello.

We sat outside and enjoyed people watching as they passed. Now the food. The menu leans toward seafood, but has good land options as well. We got the caprese appetizer, and main courses of grilled octopus and sea bass ravioli. They also offered to make some penne pasta with a pomodoro ragu sauce for our son even though it wasn't on the menu. It was all perfect. It was the best seafood ravioli I have ever had. The servers were very attentive but let us have space. On that note, my fellow Americans, please don't expect a fast meal, the pace of the service is slow so you can take your time and enjoy it. We will absolutely be back for more. Such kind people and excellent food.

There were a lot of people, of course, but they were filling orders quickly. While waiting in line, you pass by the window into the kitchen where you can see staff members freshly making pasta. It was good to know that even pasta out of a box can be prepared with the freshest ingredients. I ordered the pesto with garlic and pecorino, and it was honestly one my favorite pastas I've had in Italy. My pasta came with rigatoni, which was perfectly al dente.

It's a cozy little bar. Staff is fantastic, friendly and helpful - despite being very very busy at all times. It's popular with both locals and tourists. And for good reason. They've got a huge range of fantastic cicchetti. And nice, affordable wine, prosecco and more. There are only four tables outside and limited space to stand inside. Most visitors just hang around in front of the Bar. We've managed to get a table each visit still. We've had some of our favorites again: Gorgonzola with anchovies, some with sardines, some with bacalau. Some with prosciutto or lardo. Smoked fish or salmon All great stuff. But also this time we've discovered some new ones: With crudo di mare (raw fish/seafood), shrimp and sour onions, mushroom cream topped with mushrooms, bacon and artichokes. They've also got other snacks like fried bacalau. Really: Every single item here was delicous. They are just the best at what they're doing. And that since a long time. It never disappoints and is well worth the money. Depending on the day and time they do not always have all and/or the same cicchetti. Even more reason to come back to get some more. And we will definitely be back.

Since it was in walkable distance from where I was staying, I decided to check it out for lunch. The bar is pretty small, so I think taking it to go is usually what many people do. I got there close to when it opened so it wasn't crowded and I was able to order right away. I decided to try a few of their cichetti that had seafood on it like fish and fried squid. These are all bite-sized so I would definitely recommend getting multiple to try out the different flavors, especially with the different cheeses/creams they add. The food here was very fresh, and I liked the flavors a lot so I'm glad that I went to try it out. Overall, if you're in Venice then this is a good spot to check out!

It was all delicious and the asparagus dish she gave me was completely unlike anything I've ever had. Like most places in Italy, this place is small as well but it wasn't overrun. It was steady. But the quality of service never suffered. I think it's a good place to escape crowds and unwind with a quick bite and EXCEPTIONAL tiramisu.

It's a small, quant place that was cute and had a lot of charm! Venice overall is such a beautiful city, there wasn't a time during our stay where I didn't enjoy the views, buildings, etc. the servers/chefs were also really nice and helpful!

The pizza here is the highlight, and indeed, it was pretty excellent, though I would say in general, we had nothing but excellent pizza while anywhere in Italy.

The best part of this place, and dining in Venice generally, is taking in all the sights and sounds while eating streetside.
