Al Bacco Felice In Venezia

My wife and I visited Ristorante Pizzeria Al Bacco Felice for a late lunch after arriving in Venice. We shared a fresh salad (prepared exactly as requested) and ravioli with delicious bolognese sauce. Having visited Italy seven times, my wife and I are familiar with the coperto charge, but we rarely encounter an additional servizio charge. However, after reading some reviews on TripAdvisor, I checked the menu and found the 12% servizio charge written in small font at the bottom of one of the pages. This wasn't a deal-breaker for us. The waiter offered complimentary limoncellos, but they were mistakenly included on the bill as "Amaro" for 12 Euros. The restaurant apologized for the error and removed the charge. Would we dine again at Al Bacco Felice? Yes, if we're fortunate to ever return to Venice for a seventh visit (and eighth to Italy). However, we'll double-check the bill.

Locale carino, buona birra e spritz un po' sotto la media. Cicchetti nella media e servizio molto simpatico e gentile. Purtroppo non è un posto che ti fa sentire molto a Venezia..
