Al Vecio Portal In Venezia

This is a place my wife and I went to in 2023 for our honeymoon and have thought about coming back to constantly. I took a picture of our food here, forgot to save the places name, and therefore spent over an hour scouring images of restaurants just to find this place and come back! And I was successful! The service is so friendly, and it truly feels like a place where you only see the locals go, and they know what’s up. They seem to change the menu frequently, but if you get lucky enough to have the octopus as a started, then go buy a lotto ticket. The gnocchi were literally the softest we have ever had in our two trips through Italy. I don’t mean like soft and gummy like- I mean soft like you are cutting into ?pillows? Kind of texture??? The sauces are perfectly seasoned, and the portion for the prices seem really fair for the quality and freshness of the ingredients

Great food; nice service and a very beautiful garden!

Simple restaurant with very good quality homemade dishes. Reasonable prices with no hidden costs. Attentive staff. I recommend it.

Came here with a group of friends on vacation (6 total) and had an amazing, memorable meal. Our waiter Alvise was kind and so fun to talk to, making our experience in the beautiful garden space even better. We loved everything we ate including the tartares, red sauce pasta, lamb chops and gnocchi. The chef is Sicilian and has created wonderful dishes in addition to the Venetian cuisine. Truly the best sorbet (rosemary and strawberry) and cannolis of our lives! Come here and you’ll be taken care of.

Family run restaurant where you can get truly Italian sea food. My dishes were delicious and prepared with fresh and good quality ingredients. I truly recommend, this kind of authenticity is really difficult to get in Venice.

Thank you very much for your hospitality!

Okay, nothing more. The appetizers, octopus and tuna tartare, started off pretty well, but the rest was meh: the scallop gnocchi had scallops sprinkled over, and the spaghetti with tomato was really plain. It's not bad, but for 114 euros with two glasses of wine (8 euros for the cover charge, whereas in other restaurants they spare you the charge when you order two courses), it's not up to scratch. Finally, the terrace is in a disgusting little alleyway, and I'm still waiting for my bottle of water. In short, uninteresting. And it's in the Routard selection: why this one and not the many other trattorias in the area? It doesn't deserve to be highlighted.

Typical Venetian trattoria a stone's throw from the sea set in a small square little visited by tourists. Traditional cuisine and homemade pasta, friendly owners. If you really want to make a note, the service is not very fast, but it is worth taking a moment to enjoy the excellent food on offer.

Después de asistir a un partido de fútbol en Venecia había ido al Vecchio Portal para una comida rápida de pescado con mis amigos. El restaurante local nos cuidó bien con pescado sencillo preparado con buen gusto.
