There are a couple of reasons why I do not recommend this restaurant.
1. Their service is painfully slow. We got our drinks quickly, but we had to wait for close to an hour to get our antipasti (platters of cured ham and cheese). Another hour + (i.e., more than two hours after we placed our orders) to wait for entrees.
2. Their menu is very limited. As you can see in my photo, they only had one or two options for each category. For example, in the pasta category, they only had "meat lasagna" or "vegetable lasagna." I wanted to eat different pasta, like linguine or something, but they only had lasagna. I looked at the menu, but it said "Pasta of the Day" and was referred to the menu board.
I ended up ordering the cod gratin. It turned out to be very good, much better than I had anticipated. I was bit scared because my Yelp friend Dembe N. had said in his review "the food tasted like canned food or even worse." Maybe he's right. I was just so hungry that the gratin tasted good after waiting for a couple of hours.
To be fair, I disclose the fact that we were a party of 9 people. Not huge, but relatively big. Even with that, the service was very slow. Everyone in our group are very well travelled in Europe, and a couple of them actually grew up in Europe. So, it's not because we are impatient. The bottom line is why would you like to come here at all? A very limited menu, very slow service, and (possibly) ok food. There are thousands of restaurants in Venice.
