Da Ivo In Venezia

We absolutely loved Da Ivo! The food was outstanding, and the charming, intimate setting made the experience even more special. Arriving and leaving by water taxi added a unique and memorable touch.

Great place...but the side dishes are too expensive. The fish starters and pasta are top-notch.

Wow! What a fantastic experience. The food, the atmosphere, the staff—I felt like a king.

I guess because of the fact that George Clooney is a regular guest there as well as some other Hollywood celebs, the restaurant has become very American. Actually today there were only americans, so I felt kind of in New York or Miami rather than in Venice (where I want to be). Food: fish crudo was great (worth every cent), however main course (fish) was rather normal, nothing spectacular, desert (pannacotta) perfect. Let’s put it like this, the restaurant is very good, but it is more George Clooney than the quality.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I always visit it when I'm in Venice. The food, atmosphere, history, and clientele are all wonderful. Just be aware that it closes in the summer. P.S. This year, my son and I came here together. It's as wonderful as ever. Delicious food and great wine. I always look forward to coming here.

Recommended to me by a friend, certainly did not disappoint. Exquisite takes on traditional Venetian dishes. Everything of the finest quality. Layers of flavour were present and delicious. Beautiful house Amarone & Brunello.

A charming restaurant, with highly skilled and friendly staff, top-quality cuisine and ingredients, and an extraordinary wine list. Definitely worth a try.

We liked Da Ivo but didnt love it. We let the waiter guide us on wine, starters, and mains. The start was octopus and was great. The wine was okay. I think dining this restaurant deserves the full primi then secondi ordering style. I would not order as an american with one starter and one main. Desert was also good.

Came across Da Ivo as we were walking and looking for a place to take a break and get some lunch. Clearly NOT your average touristy trattoria! The meal was excellent. The dining room, while quite compact, was beautifully appointed with some marvelous glass work on the light fixtures. My only complaint is the 'suggestions' by our waiter. We started out saying we wanted something light, maybe a beef carpaccio and a fresh salad. We ended up with a shrimp carpaccio, a prawn and fennel salad, and some deep fried soft shell crabs. Delicious. But I couldn't help but feel we were being steered to what he wanted us to buy, not buy what we had in mind. If we go back, a real possibility, I will take the controls!

El Ivo fue catalogado en muchos blogs como imprescindible y fue muy recomendable por nuestro hotel. No puedo recomendar. La comida estaba bien, pero sobreprecio. El restaurante es increíblemente pequeño, lo que estaría bien si las mesas no estuvieran una encima de la otra. A diferencia de otras experiencias gastronómicas venecianas, no era íntimo y se sentía apresurado al principio. Lamento decir que no fue una gran experiencia y ciertamente no valió la pena el dinero. No me gustó la mirada decepcionada en mi rostro de husbana durante toda la cena, especialmente porque estamos celebrando nuestro 30 aniversario de boda. También muy flagrante sobre la propina que es inútil en Italia después de 4 días en Roma
