Osteria Al Bacareto

Came here for dinner at around 8:30pm on a weekday, it was situated on a quiet street and the restaurant was not too crowded either. We ordered 2 pastas and one main and the portions were huge. Lasagna did not look that appetising but the taste was great, we were definitely not disappointed by the food. Everything tasted very homely. Staff were really friendly too. The complimentary limoncello at the end of the meal was a nice touch. Total bill came up to be about 90€ which was not that cheap but because it’s Venice and the portions of the dishes were huge I guess it’s acceptable.

The best meal we had in Italy—so good we came back three nights in a row! The ravioli was simply divine, bursting with flavor and perfectly crafted. The experience felt authentically Italian, with warm, attentive service and an atmosphere that made every moment unforgettable. A must-visit!

Cover charge plus 10% service charge on top already high prices means that the food isn’t worth what you pay. Mediocre food, my fish was over and partners pasta sauce was over cooked all seafood frozen and poor quality. Nothing seasoned.

Excellent food, so delicious. Nice Service, nothing less than 5 stars.

Great place for very nice dinner. We had eight in our party and the staff were awesome. Accommodated food allergies, helped navigate the menu and wines. Just perfect for our first night in Venice. Do not pass this place up. Tiramisu was perfect. And get the cheese plate.

We wanted seafood and this was recommended by our local accommodation host. For mains, we order the grilled bass and the grilled sea bream. The price did not justify the quality, seasoning and the portion size of these two dishes. + The €2,5/p cover charge and 10% service fee was not deserved.

Authentic Venetian local restaurant off tourist trail, fresh tasty Venetian cooking with some interesting dishes, seafood and speciality. Very friendly and attentive waiters, good wines list, very reasonable prices, limoncello chocolates a special treat.

We received a recommendation for the restaurant from our hotel. We ordered artichoke soup, beef fillet with green peppercorn sauce (the most expensive dish on the menu) and a mixed salad. The fillet was not tasty; its texture, shape and the sauce were strange. The mixed salad never arrived. When we received the bill, they had added a cover charge (coperto) of €2.5 per person and an automatic 10% service charge for no reason. No one asked why we hadn’t touched the steak. It was the most expensive and worst dinner we had in Italy during all our visits. We do not recommend it.
