Il Covo delle Sirene 1994 In Venezia

Quality Italian cuisine. A good place if you want to eat well-prepared food at a fair price.

A bit disappointed. We saw this wonderful report on ARTE and then made a reservation. I took the opportunity to try the artichokes from Sant'Erasmo. But honestly, thinly sliced, simply seasoned with salt and olive oil, without any discernible acidity, they tasted very one-dimensional and astringent. The portion was just the right size, but in my opinion, it needed an addition, a piece of fish, etc., to achieve a well-rounded flavor. The fritto misto, on the other hand, was good and so plentiful that it was practically impossible to eat alone. It featured delicious sole and large scampi hidden beneath a lot of squid and fried vegetables (about the size of toothpicks). But there was no suggestion or recommendation to order a side vegetable and share the dish... a shame. Finally, I'd like to mention the service, which was very charming at the beginning but then steadily declined. Unfortunately, I have to say that overall I was disappointed. The quality of the ingredients is probably very good, but in total, it doesn't justify the prices. But everyone should feel free to form their own opinion.

Having read the reviews, we went there for lunch. Nicely decorated restaurant with attentive service. Unfortunately we were not convinced by the food. The cod plate for starter was a bit of a hit and miss. The main was not also convincing specifically the mixed fried seafood player. The sole was ok. What usually with such places is off putting is asking for credit card information in advance in case of no shows during the reservation.

Disappointing experience. Unjustifiably expensive and notes at the bottom of the menu coerce you into ordering more. Had wine by the glass, waiter didn't provide the opportunity to taste, poured the entire glass right away. Go to Nevodi.

Such a beautiful place! We had a really lovely dinner and tried some delicious food. Everything was fresh. The staff were very kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely recommend visiting!

Ristorante Al Covo, Venice 🇮🇹 An impeccable and memorable gastronomic experience! If you seek authenticity and excellence in Venice, Al Covo is a must-visit. We had a truly special lunch today, where everything flowed perfectly. The great difference, besides the top-notch cuisine, was the welcoming atmosphere of the staff. A special thank you to Richard, Lollo, and Sandra, who were simply sensational! They conducted the service with contagious humor and assertive communication, making the atmosphere light and very pleasant. It's rare to find such a perfect balance between professionalism and spontaneous friendliness. Every recommendation was spot-on, reflecting the care the restaurant has for its customers. The experience is well worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the best of Venetian gastronomy with warm and human service.

We snuck in at seven thirty for a ninety minute dinner that was outstanding. Also it was a family friendly place, which was remarkable given its serious foodie approach. Definitely plan to return!

We arrived earlier than scheduled and were greeted warmly with a very nice table. The food was truly superb.

A beautiful and romantic dining experience. The service, absolutely fantastic and warm, from the moment you step inside. Everyone on the team is looking to deliver a fantastic experience. You feel like family. The decor is warm, beautiful, and cozy. The food is the ultimate star though - we had the scallops, squid ink pasta, vongole pasta, and monkfish - blew us away. Don't even mention Diane's desserts, which capped off the evening amazingly. 100% recommend and would come back again.

Tasty and very welcoming atmosphere, excellent service. Excellent wines, good food.
