The food was delicious. Our waiter was annoyed that we asked for the menu in Italian and was a bit unpleasant after but the pasta w burro acciughe was divine. And the Italians at the neighboring table were lovely. Would go back in a heartbeat for the food.

We found this place among the recommended ones in the Michelin guides and we had a great time! Excellent welcome even though we hadn't booked (we recommend doing so though), excellent traditional dishes and a very wide choice of wines!

I would strongly recommend this restaurant, everything from the food to the service was excellent.

I consider this restaurant an obligatory stop in Venice, away from the tourist traps. Authentic offer, very well-stocked cellar and above all excellent courtesy from the team.

A place where you don't feel left out as a tourist. Very good Venetian cuisine. Simple but tasty. Local products. Very good wine. Even the house prosecco was a pleasure. Reservation recommended. Very crowded!

In Canneregio this small place offers typical dishes with some off the menu. Wide choice of wines with the kindness of the staff who helped us in our choice. Adequate choice also among the dishes which were appreciated. Average prices. A stop for lunch or dinner if you are in the area, I recommend.

Charging a total of 20 euros (of which 4 euros cover charge) for a plate of plain pasta for a 3 year old child is shameful to me. Then everyone applies their own policies, but you could also be warned that you don't make dishes for children... In that case we would probably have gone elsewhere.

Cena prima di Natale in questo ristorante veramente ottimo, con personale veramente qualificato e simpatico. Antipasto di pesce, primo, secondo e panettone con crema. Tutto sublime.

Cena con un amico, decido di provare Vini da Gigio. E’ uno dei pochi dei ‘ristoranti della buona accoglienza’ (una garanzia se volete mangiare bene a veneIa), e così mi decido. In uno dei tragitti più battuti dal turismo (siamo praticamente in strada nuova), non può non incuriosire con la sua insegna un po’ d’epoca, così come il suo minuscolo ingresso e l’arredamento d’antan, credenze, tavolini con tovaglia. Piccola pecca: i tavolini sono forse un po’ troppo vicini e non concedono privacy. Motivo per cui scegliamo un tavolo vicino al bancone che è un po’ più isolato. Ad un primo sguardo da l’idea di un luogo dove la forma corrisponde alla sostanza: cucina semplice, tipica, inossidabile. E infatti così è. Spettacolare il risotto alla zucca e scampi. E mai mangiato un fegato alla genziana con polenta cosi buono. Notevole la carta dei vini, con particolare attenzione a piccoli produttori locali. L’oste ci propone diverse soluzioni interessanti di vini locali da provare. I prezzi? In linea con l’offerta. Siamo a Venezia, per cui se volete mangiare con due soldi ci sono sempre le catene di burger…
