10/08/2025: We went for dinner. It's become a tradition for my husband, daughters, and I to dine there when we're on vacation in Jesolo. Excellent service, delicious seafood, and a beautiful location right on the sea. Always a sure thing!
04/08/2025: We chose this restaurant for our wedding because it's a regular customer, and because we've always had a great time there, and we've always thought that not only is the place amazing, but the food has also always been excellent.
And before writing the following, we interviewed our 35 guests.
We were very disappointed, as we hoped we were in excellent hands.
€140 per person without batting an eyelid or asking for a discount, €600 to set up a gazebo with chairs for the guests.
On the morning of the wedding, I found myself with half the number of chairs for the number of guests, and obviously we'd never been told there weren't enough chairs (since in the Facebook photos of other weddings there were more chairs), and the chair covers were so wrinkled that I had to beg for a replacement. An external rental would have cost me half as much.
A certain amount of wine was included in the dinner price, but we said that if we exceeded the amount, we would pay the difference.
During the aperitif, we shared a ginger ale or a fruit juice. We never agreed to have this at the aperitif!
As for dinner, unfortunately, the risotto, part of one of the two first courses, was completely ruined. It was full of pepper that the guests struggled to finish, and the paccheri were unsalted.
At the table, the guests had to beg for water and wine, and if you really don't want to serve the wine they paid for, at least serve water in the June heat seemed like the least they could do!
Our cake, which we brought, was worth throwing in the bin. A cake with fresh cream that had been out of the fridge for at least two hours, so much so that one of our guests, a pastry chef, had suggested that perhaps it should be kept in the fridge.
But if I could overlook all these and other "oversights," what was unacceptable was the owner's brief discussion with three of our guests, who told him that the service was terrible, and the menu was terrible too. He replied that everything couldn't be better, as our budget was stretched to the limit.
The price they offered, and the menu too!
When we raised the above with the owners, instead of receiving an apology, they told us we were complaining too much.
We lost two customers (us) and 35 who will never return and are unlikely to speak highly of the food or service.
