This is a trattoria where you can enjoy Venetian cuisine. It's very delicious. A surprising for Japanese tastes is that they serve dishes like Nanbanzuke (apparently called Saora in Venice) and taro. This is a unique taste from a different angle from popular Italian. The squid ink pasta is also delicious, with the flavor of the ingredients soaked into it. If you include this restaurant in your trip around Italy, you can enjoy new food tastes.

Tucked away in the fish market area, you can easily walk by and miss this cute restaurant. The service was absolutely spot on, and every dish was prepared perfectly. The servings allowed for my husband and I to order each course, and they were so good we licked the spoons in the end. We had the oysters, fish stew, ravioli, eel, and fried seafood plate. We ended with the tiramisu and bruleed pineapple. Everything was so good, I can't recommend one dish over the other!

We had a lovely lunch at this historical restaurant, Poste Vecie, Davide and his team were very friendly, attentive and helpful. Davide was very kind to give us a brief history on the property and the noteworthy pieces. The food was delectable. Highly recommend!

A Culinary Gem in Venice: An Unforgettable Dining Experience Venice boasts numerous exceptional restaurants, but this establishment truly stands out from the crowd. Our evening was nothing short of magical, surpassing even our experience at a Michelin-starred restaurant in the city. Ambiance and Welcome The restaurant’s atmosphere was exquisitely romantic. Its hushed environment allowed for intimate conversation, a rare find in bustling Venice. The warmth began at the entrance, where a charming hostess graciously checked our coats and welcomed us with a complimentary glass of champagne. Gastronomic Highlights The culinary journey was remarkable: • Appetizer: Luxurious oysters accompanied by vodka and caviar, a sublime start to the meal • Main Course: A masterful preparation of branzino, dramatically filleted tableside, eliminating the hassle of navigating fish bones Exceptional Service What elevated the experience was the staff’s remarkable linguistic versatility. Effortlessly switching between Italian, English, and French, they embodied the cosmopolitan spirit of fine dining. Overall Impression More than a meal, this was a memorable evening that captured the romantic essence of Venetian hospitality. A truly exceptional dining experience that I would enthusiastically recommend.

If you are looking for a restaurant that has elevated dishes in Venice that isn’t for tourists then this is the place to dine at. The lobster tagliatelle is a must but I don’t know if it is seasonal. You must get their selection of cicchetti as it is revolted compared to other restaurants in Venice.

One of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. We got the grilled sea bass, spaghetti with cuttlefish ink, and the ravioli for dinner and it all tasted incredibly fresh and each bite was like ascending to heaven. For dessert we got the chocolate cake and the white chocolate pudding and both were excellent as well. This place is an absolute must try!

We were only in Venice for 2 nights and this was our first dinner. It did not disappoint! My husband said with the first bite of his ravioli he knew he wanted to savor it. I am vegetarian and got the pasta e fagioli and it was very enjoyable. Service was great, desserts were great and the ambiance was lovely. I would definitely recommend it!

Charming spot with great food and service! The tuna and tiramisu were standouts, though some portions are small. Loved the cozy interior and bridge access. Reserved on The Fork for 20% off—highly recommend!

Poor poor poor service. When questioned about slowness caught an attitude and lecture by our waiter. Served by seven different people throughout the night. Should have just walked out. In addition real hot inside. No a,c., no fans. No spoons with the sphagetti. No removal of dirty plates until we were eating the next course. In summary a disgusting way to treat customers

One of the things that my husband and I like to do is to find the oldest restaurant in whatever city we are in and go for dinner. In Venice, it was the Poste Vecie Restaurant. A wooden bridge spanning a canal connects an area of the Rialto fish market with this historical 16th century building. We read that In the 1500s, there was already a tavern here, where the Venetian mail carriers sorted letters and missives over a glass of wine. The restaurant is loaded with charm and character with frescoes on the walls, tastefully furnished and bold colors. We requested to be seated in the dining room with the large fireplace and we were. We were warmly greeted upon our arrival. Dario quickly appeared and served us complimentary Prosecco - what a lovely touch! Mannes, our server, was delightful and attentive, as was all of the staff. The restaurant offers only homemade pasta, and their fresh fish is provided every day from the Rialto fish market so that you are assured of the best quality and freshness. One of the dishes that the Poste Vecie is proud of is the real Venetian fegato alla Veneziana (liver in Venetian way), which I thoroughly enjoyed . The liver was very delicate and was served over polenta with the onions. My husband ordered the Guanciale di Vitello (Veal cheeks) and roasted potatoes. Even when all the tables were full, we could still have a conversation. This is a restaurant worth visiting. It is elegant and peaceful.

This place should be on your list if you are going to Venice. The oldest restaurant in the city, in a beautiful location, not super touristy. The outside patio is small and romantic. The staff is friendly and very helpful with advice. They serve you champagne as you sit and a little bread basket. Remember you're in Venice so get the seafood! We started with a shrimp carpaccio then had the sea bass ravioli and the crab meat pasta. Everything was delicious and we paired it with the house white wine (one of our tour guides recommended to always get the house wines - she was right always good). We asked our waiter for a dessert recommendation (I can't remember the name of it- but again did not disappoint) it was a coffee catalan dessert thing. The only negative I can stay about this place is we had a little trouble finding the entrance but they let us through the kitchen with no issues! Overall, delicious, affordable, and in a beautiful location with history. Definitely add it to your list.

I saw this restaurant on an Andrew Zimmer show and saved it on my list of must visits. A year later here we were and if you don't eat here you missed a gem. Service was good, food was great.

This was a lovely romantic spot next to the fish market in Venice. The food and atmosphere was top notch. My wife had the mixed fried seafood, which she loved. Would highly recommend for a romantic dinner in Venice.

This is one of the best places in Venice. The service is great, the restaurant atmosphere is very nice and the food is fresh and delicious. A good restaurant to have a real and complete Italian dinner.

They give you free champagne as you sit down. The menu has all the classic Italian dishes with an emphasis on seafood. The staff is very friendly to Americans and service any requests.

This claims to be the oldest restaurant in Venice - and one can believe it, though I would imagine there is some competition! It is quite hard to find - over its own small bridge right by the fish market and looked very inviting on this colder, rainy evening. The main room is indeed quite cosy, wood lined, packed with pictures and old letters hanging on the walls. Prosecco and bread came free with the seemingly obligatory cover charge. After the build up, the food was a little disappointing. My sole was ok but average, slightly compensated for decent chips (well, I told you it was a cold rainy night!). Despite the rain and the hidden location, the restaurant soon filled up which helped the warm atmosphere. But there are so many better places to eat in Venice; despite all you hear there is good cooking to be had if you look.

This place was AMAZING! The history was amazing! Food was good and service was on point. The seafood spaghetti was some of the best I have had. I can't wait to come back next year

Great place for a lovely birthday luncheon. It is reportedly the oldest continually open restaurant in Venice. The memorabilia on the walls is fascinating. The menu is very nice and each course was well prepared, presented and thoroughly enjoyed. Would look forward to returning info again.

The oldest restaurant, but not the best. We went to this hard-to-find with restaurant with high expectations. Unfortunately the so-called "garden" area is not a garden, but is enclosed in glass and we found the interior rather dark and gloomy. Service was friendly. Food was average.

The worst place ever been over the last couple years. Food was not seasoned at all. We had only 2 appetizers (41 euros !!) and decided to leave. When waiter asked if we liked -- we responded with sincere answer of NO and explained why. Guy decided to convince my wife that she is wrong...told me that he does not understand "underseasond" and "bland" words...all they had to do is to apologize. If i could rate it ZERO -- I would do that. Avoid and do not waste your time, money and spirit of amazingly beatiful city -- our evening was spoiled completely!

This place is a little hard to find, which for us made it all the more special and fun. For the first course we had gnocchi with lobster, which was incredible, and the Poste Vecie spaghetti, which came with so many varieties of seafood and a delicious sauce. Then we had the monkfish and branzino, both of which were very tasty in different ways. We couldn't help ourselves and got three desserts: tiramisu, eggnog ice cream with pistachios and chocolate, and pear cake with orange and chocolate. All were very good, but the eggnog ice cream was out of this world! It was pricy, but we got a lot of food. Prosecco and bread was included in the cover charge (3 euros). We really enjoyed the relatively inexpensive bottle of house white wine (16 euros). The atmosphere was lovely and intimate, with candles and flowers at the table, and the servers were very attentive and we had someone to pour out wine and clean the fish table side.

We did a free walking tour and our tour guide spoke volumes of how great this spot was. Ironically (or not) it definitely felt like a tourist trap. Not to mention after sitting there for 20 minutes we never were helped ( even after flagging down the servers). Cool history, but we decided to get up and leave.
