The 24 Best Restaurants In Venice, Italy - Venice - The Infatuation

"Pizza north of Rome can be a gamble, but the Neapolitan-style pies made at Birraria La Corte are a sure bet. Your pizza experience can still be Venetian with the Sospiri, which has spicy calabrian ‘nduja drizzled with honey made in the lagoon. Or you can go with the Barena featuring fresh tuna in saor sprinkled with salicorne, a crunchy salty green that grows at the edges of muddy tidal islands. Start your meal with a plate of the patate bravas that come with stylish stripes of spicy tomato sauce and aioli. The selection of craft beers on tap and in cans is extensive, and the cocktail and natural wine list is equally serious. Desserts like a gelato-based tiramisu and bites of salted caramel brownies are refined Italian-ish comfort food at their best." - gillian mcguire, carlo mantuano
