08/02/2025: Did you know? It is the oldest bacaro in Venice, already frequented by Casanova.
Today it has maintained its Venetian authenticity and is frequented by Venetians. Traditional cicchetti: meatballs, cod, eggs, folpetti, sandwiches..., and good wine, both house-made and bottled.
In the Rialto district, on the opposite side of San Marco, it is located off the usual tourist routes, you really have to go. It is a small place, a little dark, but which fully reflects the Venetian tavern.
We loved it.
06/01/2025: Place located in the Rialto district, easy to reach.
Ancient wine bar and former bacaro of Venice.
Soft lights almost in dim light, ancient walls, wood, cauldrons, frequented by many Venetians always available for an exchange of words or a word.
Wide choice of wines from the Veneto and surrounding areas... possible to taste standing or sitting on stools using the wall shelves as a support base.
Courteous, professional "family" staff.
Present the true Venetian "cicheti", now unobtainable, octopus or "folpeti",
the egg with anchovy, the omelette,
the artichoke, the artichoke base, different types of meatballs, white poenta and cod, the stamps (Venetian sandwiches that accompany the "shadow")
there is also an offer of "spuncioti" or croutons made with "REAL" undefrosted bread and similar products and produced by a Venetian bakery, based on interesting proposals.
Authentic experience to have in Venice.
Average prices.
I recommend and will return.
