Da Biasini In Venezia

15/08/2024: Endroit idéalement située, vers le pont Rialto. Plats très bons mais service moyen. Serveur peu souriant et aucun effort pour nous servir.

10/08/2024: We expected to pay a premium due to the location - right by the Rialto Bridge on the Grand Canal. However, a nice meal was spoilt by a rude, arrogant waiter. Aperol Spritz was totally flat. When asked about it the glasses were taken away and brought back exactly the same with a curt “better”? Well no they weren’t any different- exactly the same drink in the same glasses!! The main meal was nice. We asked for the dessert menu and were presented with a plate of desserts to choose from. The desserts were €11 each. When asking if there was any ice cream for the children we were told to wait while he worked out what the 3 desserts ordered were. I think €10 for each small bowl of ice cream for the children was a bit steep. We were then presented with the bill before we even asked for it. When challenged on the fact that we hadn’t asked for the bill the response was card or cash. There was also a 12% charge added to the bill. Such a shame that the service let the place down as the location (right by the Rialto Bridge) was very good and the food was tasty but we left feeling very dissatisfied. There are many other restaurants with a beautiful location so I would recommend going to one of those.
