An intimate restaurant run by Chef Alessio, who also appeared on the show "4 Ristoranti" with Alessandro Borghese, is a master chef, specializing in Japanese cuisine. He uses the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, offering a great value. He's well-known in Chioggia (Venice) for his remarkable culinary skills. The exterior may not do justice to all the rest of his five-star credentials, but there's no point in going to a restaurant that's beautiful inside and out, only to have terrible food, terrible drinks, and overpay. So, come to the Arena! Highly recommended!

Don't worry about what they told you in the episode you did with your "fellow" restaurateurs, as soon as I pass by that area I'll be very happy to come visit you. I like people who are outspoken, and then you make that sushi, it's a masterpiece.

The lady who served us wasn't exactly a professional; she just sort of put the food and wine down. The food itself was very good.

High expectations partly disappointed, good dishes but little variety, good service but anonymous atmosphere, very high prices, frankly too high compared to the experience we had.

Excellent restaurant. I came here after watching the episode of 4 Restaurants, also driven by a bit of nostalgia (my grandparents ran this place in the '90s).
I found the atmosphere to be familiar yet professional.
The staff is friendly and genuine, and can recommend even off-menu items. They offered us a 1-kg lobster, freshly caught, which was truly spectacular. They showed it to us while it was still alive, and it arrived beautifully boiled after the appetizers.
I also ordered a raw fish platter consisting of salmon, raw scampi, and two oysters (I think Scardovari, but I didn't ask).
Overall, a really positive experience.
The price was high (160 for two), but we had truly exquisite fish.
I'll be back.

Refined, intimate, welcoming, and warm, serving fresh, traditional Chioggia cuisine. Lunch included scallops soup, Vicenza-style cod, and sea bass. The staff were exquisite and extremely friendly, and the Prosecco wines were excellent.

What can I say? A family restaurant, two brothers who work together, with top-notch knowledge of the product and its processing, honesty, and friendliness!!! Human relationships come first...highly recommended.

Had dinner last night, an experience worth repeating. The quality of the ingredients and the pairings by Chef Scuttari were truly superb.
The staff, especially the sommelier, were very knowledgeable.
