La Colombina In Venezia

A restaurant with an agreeably old-fashioned atmosphere. The menu is interesting and original. The food is of a high standard. Service is professional and friendly. It can be hard to find really good restaurants in Venice: but this is certainly one of them.

We knew that we’d have a fabulous choice of restaurants in Venice and our main problem would be deciding. But with a small, unpretentious dining room, intriguing menu and a long standing series of Michelin stars this seemed like a good bet. We were not disappointed. Starting with a simple shared appetizer of crispy bread with garlic perfect bruschetta, our appetites were properly whetted. A party of 4, one of us has a peanut allergy and the well trained staff took it seriously. We enjoyed a gnocchi with creamed rosemary and crab sauce, spaghetti with a cheese and truffle topping and a zucchini crusted sea bass. All superb! We had a series of typical Italian desserts but there was nothing typical about the quality of ingredients and scrumptious tastes. A great time was had by all.
