Osteria da Elio

Stumbled across this gem today, was intrigued by the octopus ciccheti and stayed for the food, good house wine and lovely people. Had a nice chat with the owners and bar staff.

Very tasty Cicchetti. Just point to your selection and they put it on a plate or board and enjoy. Good and inexpensive selections of wine and beer.

Best location for cicchetti in Venice! Absolutely fantastic selection and variety with local and fresh ingredients. Each was unique and delicious, highly recommend trying as many as possible. Reasonable price and comparable to surrounding restaurants so highly recommend!

Stopped in here on a tour and what an absolute great board of meats was made for us. And the spritz was delicious!!!

This is so far the best restaurant where I’ve been,in many years of visiting Venice. Food quality is absolutely top,I’ve tries “Pasta allo scoglio”(without sea food) and it was simply a food porn experience. I loved the fresh pasta and seafood was perfectly cooked. I’ve also tried their fried calamari,again,perfectly cooked,Crunchy and tasty,just perfection. The staff made our lunch experience even more satisfying,advising for the perfect wine combination with our orders. Dulcis in fundo,their tiramisù did not disappointed me at the end. There was a perfect equilibrium between biscuit and cream,exactly as I like. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Thank you Elio,you’re doing a great job,yours has become my new favorite restaurant in Venice,I’ll definitely visit again soon.

Very tasty cichietti and nice Aperol! We didn’t stay for too long, as we were in a hurry to take the bus to Bologna, but I would definitely go back and try some more.

Fantastic little wine bar. Great snacks (just get dealer’s choice, don’t be that person at the window), good wine list.

Great place for an aperitivo! Good vibes and great service. Definitely a place to stop by for a spritz!
