Ristorante Quadri

Location is everything here and this is a destination restaurant in a fabulous spot. You certainly pay for the privilege. The decor is lovely (although the stuffed animals with jokey wings might not be to everyone's taste) and the arrangement of the tables well-spaced and discreet. The table dressing is quite beautiful although it is set up to up-sell you a glass of champagne before the menus are presented. There are four set menus but you can choose a la carte from any of the menus. This is the wise choice. We both started with the marinated scallops which my partner liked less than I did (“flabby”). The main courses were disappointing. The fish and the fillet of beef were both rather lost in their fixings and seasonings – and the beef a little tough. Service good but not outstanding. Overall this is a pretty amazing experience with a price to match: it could up its game particularly on the main courses.

Exceptional Dining Experience with a Magical View of San Marco A wonderful restaurant with a truly unique view of St. Mark’s Square. The elegant interior with warm, pleasant lighting creates an oasis of calm right in the heart of Venice. The staff who served us were kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The food — a menu inspired by the gifts of the Venetian lagoon — was excellent, and the wine selection was absolutely outstanding. We spent two relaxing hours in an enchanting setting, made even more special by the breathtaking view of the illuminated San Marco. When the staff learned that we were celebrating our first wedding anniversary in Venice, they surprised us with a sweet dessert accompanied by warm anniversary wishes. It was an incredibly thoughtful gesture that made us truly happy and touched our hearts. Thank you to everyone at Quadri for creating such an exceptional and memorable anniversary experience.

Stopped in for an aperitivo for three people with two sodas, one spritz, and two orders of their seafood cichetti and the bill came out to 116 euros. Service was fast and great, and you cannot beat the view because you are right in St. Mark’s Square with a live band playing. You are really paying a premium for the atmosphere and ambiance here. We only did an aperitivo but I can imagine for a larger meal with drinkers your check will balloon quickly. It is a one and done bucket list sort of place. The seafood cichetti were good and tasty but you can find even better cichetti a little further into the heart of Venice.

The food is really really good. First of all the home made bread quality. I think it’s an amazing “first impression card”. Everything amazing. The atmosphere is not mine because I prefer another design but I know that it’s Venice style so you need to appreciate it even if it’s not what you’re looking fort. The staff was not so kind because they misunderstood our request regarding a dish and when we told them that there was a mistake the waitress was annoyed… Last advice: I recommend to clean the table from breadcrumbs after every dish because this is an high quality restaurant and I think this is really important to upgrade in the service.

Myself and my husband recently visited the restaurant August /25 ,to celebrate a special birthday. We were both overwhelmed with the service on arrival couldn’t be more relaxed and comfortable within the restaurant. The food was truly described throughout the menu and was an experience so unique and delicious. Would highly recommend this restaurant for a great meal and experience on the square. Thank you for the surprise birthday treat .

My wife and I recently dined at this restaurant and were immediately captivated by the beautiful and romantic atmosphere. The ambiance truly set the stage for what we hoped would be an unforgettable evening. The service was impeccable, with attentive and friendly staff who made us feel welcome and well-cared for throughout our meal. Having been spoiled by many trips to the Inn At Little Washington, we had high expectations for the food. We chose the Venetian Spring Sampler from the menu, but unfortunately, we found the dishes to be not up to the standards of a Michelin-starred restaurant. While the presentation was lovely, the flavors and execution fell short of our expectations. Despite this, we still had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere. The setting and service made the evening special, and we left with fond memories of our time there. We finished our meal and appreciated the effort put into creating such a wonderful dining environment. Overall, while the food did not meet our high expectations, the exceptional service and enchanting atmosphere made for a delightful experience.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. Given the price and reputation, I expected a memorable fine dining meal, but the food was extremely underwhelming. The flavors were flat and lacked any real depth or creativity. The main course was so heavy and unbalanced that I couldn’t even finish it, and the dessert was overly sweet and forgettable. While the presentation was elegant, the dishes themselves felt pretentious rather than genuinely enjoyable. For the price of nearly €200 per person, the quality simply did not match the cost. I’ve had far better meals in Venice for a fraction of the price. Overall, it was a very poor value for money and not an experience I would recommend or repeat.

A superb space with wit and charm. The service is excellent, both professional and personable. The presentation of the food is some of the finest found anywhere in the world, simply stunning. The only let down is the flavors of too many of the dishes was just unremarkable, specifically the meat course. I think about half of the dishes suffered from this problem, maybe because the artful appearance promised so much more! The champagne hard sell at the start was a little tacky. It is so close to being a truly world beating restaurant. 780 euros for 3.

Quadri is one of the many restaurants in the Alamo empire (along with La Calandre), and it's located right upstairs from San Marco square. It's a dim and classy setting with lots of ornate details, a sharp contrast from the busy touristy area downstairs. I was struggling to pick between the 4 acts (16 dishes) and the truffle menu, but it was a good truffle season, and a white truffle tasting back at home would have cost significantly more, plus the server recommended the truffle menu, so we went with that. We started with a blanc de noir and then moved onto a bottle. Markups were higher than we expected for the Italian wines, but a 2015 Barolo, a classic pairing for the white truffle. Amuses: - Roasted artichoke - Sweet cream and herb fried gougere - Vegetable tartare with soy cream The truffle menu - 1. Broccoli raab soup with red onion sorbetto, a parmigiano fundutta, and white truffle. The broccoli raab leaves sort of overpowered the truffle, but without the leaves, you could taste the truffle with just the soup 2. Soft corn bruschetta with beef tartare and white truffle and white truffle mayo. This was a lot of beef (which I love) and a great way to bring out the truffle 3. Fettuccini with white hare sauce, mushrooms, and white truffle, brodo on the side - a classic fall white truffle pasta dish 4. Venetian "murrina" poached egg with white truffle, with colorful sauces of pumpkin, parmigiano, spinach, beet root. It was rich but light at the same time. There was a ribeye option, but I wanted the classic pairing with the soft egg 5. Pomegranate jelly, hibiscus and ginger juice, rose sorbetto 6. Tarte tatin with white truffle gelato - straight up truffle ice cream with shaved white truffle on top. It came with an apple tart with and an apple caramel cream with truffle jus, but the ice cream was the true highlight for me. Honestly, after seeing the 4 acts of 16-course that many other tables near us opted for, I had a bit of regret because I think I would have preferred smaller portions if more dishes. I mean you never really regret white truffle, but it would have been nice to try more variety. I didn't have high expectations for fancy meals in Venice since it's so tourist heavy, but no regrets on Ristorante Quadri, but I don't regret the choice. Prices are definitely up there compared to other parts of Italy.

We were somewhat disappointed in this very expensive dining experience. The service was excellent but food quality was inconsistent. We did a three course a la carte menu. The spagettino with fresh herbs was excellent. The soft shell crab was very good. The main courses fell short of expectations for a Michelin star restaurant. My rib eye steak was ordered medium rare but served medium well and was quite tough. The mackerel filet was overcooked and dry. With a bottle of wine, the dinner cost over 400 euros and was so not worth the price. We would never return.

One of the best experiences in Venice. The fresh food is delicious and the presentation also makes the dining experience that much more elevated. If you are in Venice make a reservation upstairs at the Quadri for a dinner that will raise your senses to another level.

I wanted to be more casual and enjoy the music and view at Piazza San Marco, so I had drinks and bites outside. The waiters were friendly, the bites were tiny but delicious, and the Aperol Spritz was perfect. I expected a hefty bill, and that, I got; but it was worth it.

Bleh, don't know how they have a Michelin star. The tasting course was just a bucket of salt water from the canal. The servers were inexperienced and lacked common sense. Not worth it, find somewhere else.

I felt like a VIP from the moment we walked in on Sunday, November 21, 2021, for our 8 PM reservation. At first, it can be intimidating being at such a fine and elegant restaurant, but the entire staff made us feel so welcome. My husband and I went to the restroom, I came out first and was looking around for him, and a team member was so animated and lively and held out his arm in such a way that had me smiling. I wish could remember everyone's names. Our primary server (he said that he was coming to the US) took the time to explain the courses and he, along with everyone, provided exceptional service. They are located on the 2nd floor overlooking St Mark's Square. When we left, our server met us downstairs to say goodbye. Every course just kept getting better, and to be in such a historic location was incredible. The night before, we had gone to another MICHELIN-starred restaurant, and when I return to Venice and only had time for one meal, Quadri would be my absolute choice.

Not worth the money or the Michelin * Whoever she was, she was combative, rude, then standoffish! I heard her being very pushy with other guests, too -the ones to my right and left. I personally discussed this with one of the groups downstairs while listening to music in the courtyard. Listen to your customers, don't force things on them OR be pushy with heavy opinions, and for God sake, never let your poor attitude ruin someone else's expensive evening!!! The food, well, it was okay, subpa actually, especially for the $$$$ I mean, if you're looking for a 3-hour meal and to blow off money, go for it, but the experience we had was not enjoyable, quite uncomfortable actually, and it lasted for three hours, which felt like a really bad casino experience.

Wanted to sit in the plaza and needed to order - plus my niece wanted gelato. She thought it was delicious but the pigeons are BAD! It doesn't help when customers feed them.

Be prepared to pay tourist prices. Well worth every euro!!! Well appointed cafe with unparalleled views of people and piazza San Marco. We sat inside due to cold weather but the experience was sophisticated and enjoyable. We tried the rich hot chocolate (milk and chocolate served in separate containers--perfect if you have a dairy allergy); the crust less, soft sandwiches filled with fresh ingredients like salmon, avocado or tuna; coffee delights; lovely tea setting. Fabulous presentation of all menu items. Helpful service for those of us who don't speak a lick of Italian. :) I imagine this place will rival the famous long standing Caffe Florian across the way. (We didn't make it to Florian this time bc it was closed for a private event. )

Ristorante Quadri - the jewel of Piazza San Marco Recently (17/6/2023), my wife and I dined at Ristorante Quadri. The ambience is old-world and intimate, limited to about 12 tables, four of which overlook the spectacular Piazza San Marco at night. We savored the eight-course tasting menu. Highlights were the beet-marinated sea bream carpaccio (sashimi-grade) with fresh Alajmo caviar (Siberian sturgeon), a perfect balance of sweet and salty; burrata ravioli with cuttlefish, mussels, clams, and shrimp, fresh and flavorful; risotto with cuttlefish ink, spring peas, and sea urchin, arguably the finest risotto in all Venice, accented nicely with ink and urchin; soft shell crab prepared tempura-style with spicy sweet-and-sour sorbet, left you craving for much more. Kudos to maître d' Stefano, waiter Jacopo, and sommelier Georgina (leather apron) for their extraordinary service. Quadri truly deserves its Michelin 1-star distinction. We greatly look forward to our next visit.

ordered TRAMEZZINO NONNO VITTORIO Whipped stockfish, anchovies, lettuce, Tropea onions in balsamic vinegar, tomato and oregano mayonnaise SPRITZ Classico (Aperol or Campari, prosecco, soda water) about 30 euro. tasty fish, anchovies, (not too salty), dressing was smooth , creamy but not oily not heavy , fresh lettuce n tomato, every ingredient blend well, the bread was lightly toast, very well made. it was my very first SPRITZ, not sweet as fruity wine, but sweeter than the dry white. it is a nice summer drink. ** the food was served with a metal cover. nuts in a jar. interestingly presented. the seagull n pigeon will stop by your table , n attempt to have a bite. there was one server was holding a plastic bottle and spray toward the "birds" and hopefully preventing them from disturbing the customer.

I went to the cafe and bar section. The menu there is almost all drinks with a few food items. Prices are ridiculous. 12 euro cup of tea. 5 euros for the smallest bottle of water I've ever seen. Really bad tiny pizza for 20. Tourist trap. Calice, a block away is a much better bet. Tastier food, sane prices.

Considering the price, nothing here was on par. We did a full four-course tasting menu inside for dinner (280 euros!). Each course was served with four dishes. Of the 23 or so total dishes from this meal, I can't say a single one was memorable in any way. Some were plain bland, others completely undercooked (like the risotto), others extremely salty to the point of being inedible, and others just confusing to eat (for example, one pasta dish had all the pasta tightly wound together so you couldn't separate it into the 3-4 bites necessary to eat it easily). The plate sizing was disproportionate, with some dishes being huge and others being just a taste, making it difficult to pace. The waiter we had was respectful, kind, but difficult to get ahold of. I understand difficult to get ahold of is kind of an Italian thing, but when 90% of your customers are foreign, I think it's important to adjust a bit. The other supporting staff were nice, but frankly not dressed well for a high-caliber restaurant. Plates were not put down esthetically, silverware was not placed down neatly on the table between courses, nor were the crumbs from the previous dishes swept away until the dessert course. Almost all the food we had was on the "safe" side--pretty boring. There were a couple interesting things, like basil sorbet and some mixed-temperature vegetable dish, but they weren't executed well. Overall, probably the most disappointing Michelin star restaurant. I'm genuinely puzzled how they could get one with the quality of the food they presented us. At best, some of the better dishes could be served as "chef's choice" dishes at a cheaper restaurant.

What's a horrible place!!! We sat, ordered food and my wife went to the restroom. On the way there she was passing the reception and stopped by a guy who was yelling at her "It is not a public restroom". Trying to explain him that she was a customer didn't take any effect - "you need to have a ticket!!". What? Nobody told us that! Our waiter was looking at that and did nothing! She returned back crying due to the rudeness and the whole day for her for screwed! Also, the food was ridiculously overpriced and was just bad: glass of wine €14, bottle of water €11, tiny pizza €21. Wtf?! Pass it. Find something better.

The front desk host were very nice and welcoming. However the old man with glasses who is the bartender was very rude, we came in to order drinks and we had a box of to go pizza from the previous place we ate at and the bartender was trying to kick us out for having it. We told them we aren't here but here for drinks however he kept motioning for us to leave. We then walked out and we told the host he was trying to kick us out because of the box but the host said it's okay as long as we don't eat here, so we ended up staying ordering our drinks.

Items Selected: Double Espresso on Ice Ricotta di Bufala Cake Pistachio Cream Croissant Apple Tartina Gianduia Muffin Located on St. Mark's Square and featuring the work of Chef Massimiliano Alajmo whose cooking at Rubano's Le Calandre earned him 3 Michelin Stars at the age of 28, Quadri as well as it's offshoots Gran Caffe and ABC Quadri offer a more casual look at the Chef's innovative interpretations of modern day Italian culinaria, a standing breakfast of four pastries plus a double Espresso at the Caffe proving comparably priced to the rest of the area with results expectedly good, but not particularly great. Itself a small space with just two indoor two-tops, though the Michelin Starred restaurant upstairs and "ABC" program running from 11h30 to 15h00 on the square is far larger and refined, it was with multi-lingual service from a young woman that an order at Gran Caffe was assembled, the total cost of €14 seeing two of the items still warm at 09h15, first bites of the Pistachio Cream Croissant showing the texture to be light and flaky around the naturally-flavored filling, a follow-up Apple Tart as more hefty in spices than it was in sweetness with pockets of raisins an unexpected twist later to be found common in Italian interpretations of the dish. Adapting like so many others to the increasing Gluten-Free demands of patrons, the location alone providing Quadri an impetus to please palates of all kinds, a taste of the Gianduia Muffin showed a rich texture created by the combination of Almond Flour plus the Housemade Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread available by jar for takeaway, the best bites of the meal still-to-come by way of the creamy, smooth and lightly sugared Ricotta di Bufala Cake.

I give this place two stars but it doesn't even deserve that. It was decent at best. Everyone was nice and the drinks were fine but the prices are more expensive than anything I've had at even the finest Michelin starred restaurants anywhere else in the world. When I asked them how they feel they could charge $20(US) dollars for a cappuccino, they blamed the location. In my opinion, if you want an overpriced drink or meal, this is the place for you! Otherwise, stay clear.

One of four cafes on St Marks Square. This Cafe lacks the history of Cafe Florin (across the plaza) but it offers much more food for the price. We had: the toast quadri, the club sandwich (which is huge) and the fried fish and vegetables and fries, plus a cafe machiatto, 2 cokes and a bottle of water all for 130 euros which included the sit down fee. The service is great. We (3) had so much food left over it was a shame. So if you are famished after standing in line and want to soak up the ambiance and be fed like a king, head here. This great value for a family in one of the three experiences in Venice (gandola ride and a Bellini at Harry's American Bar, sipping coffee in St Marks).

Amazing!!! Absolutely the best experience ever! And they make wonderful customized cocktails!

Its one of my top five in the world. Michelin star Quadri ate Piazza San Marco a Venezia its a perfect atmosphere for an amazing night. Service is flawless and cuisine is amazing! Spetacular wine list Its expensive but not more than others michelin. And make sure to ask for a table by the vetrata (window)

I've been mulling over my review the past month after dining at Quadri and finally decided to sit down to write it. I was so excited to eat here as Quadri is the only restaurant in all of Venice that has received a Michelin star (2012 I believe). But my husband and I were so terribly disappointed. First and foremost, I would like to state that the service was absolutely wonderful. The wait staff was nice, professional and attentive. The issue we had, was with the food. Our Crudo appetizer was just okay. For the price, I really expected more than 3 tiny slices of fish. Our entrees were absolutely terrible. My husband ordered the pasta and I the cuttlefish risotto and apparently this restaurant has a whole new definition for al dente. I've eaten at several Michelin star restaurants so I'm familiar with large platters with small portions but for an entree that is not a tasting item, I was really expecting more than 3 spoonfuls of risotto. My poor husband had like 2 forkfuls of pasta. Each "entree" was 55-60 euros (approx $62-$67) a PLATE to only receive enough to feed an infant child was really underwhelming for us. To top off the portion vs price issue, our food was unbearable to eat. Both our entrees were undercooked. We understand what al dente means but this restaurant calls their cooking, the "new al dente." My husband and I were so baffled by our entrees we had to ask our host, in the most polite way possible, why our food was undercooked. He explained that the pasta actually takes 20 minutes to cook and this is the "new al dente." So we shut our mouths and ate hard pasta and hard rice. In retrospect, we should have sent the food back because it really was unbearable. I truly find it hard to believe that you can cook pasta for 20 minutes and it is still undercooked (with more than half of the pasta still being white when you bite into it) At the end, we paid about $350USD for the worst meal in all of our Italy trip. The restaurant was pretty much dead, I would say less than 1/4 of the tables were filled. During our meal, there was a table of 3 that sat across from us that had ordered the same pasta my husband did. We watched all 3 of them try the new al dente pasta with confused looks on their face. So perplexed...and so unsatisfied.

NO! I've never had bad Italian food in Italy until this place. Moreover everyone was rude and acted like my family's presence annoyed them. -- from the time we walked in the door. They obviously do good business because of their location (with all the tourists). Portions microscopically small and inversely proportional to the price! I tell you Chef Boyrdee spaghettios would be better.

First things first: Ristorante Quadri is NOT the same as the (Gran) Caffe Quadri -- it's owned by the same family (Alajmo), who recently (2011) renovated both; and the restaurant is located right above the cafe, right on Piazza San Marco. But there the similarities end. If you're looking for one, don't be fooled by the other. My friend and I were visiting Venice for a week, and, upon hearing that Ristorante Quadri earned a Michelin star in 2012 and upon the recommendation of our hotel's concierge, decided to splurge and try it out. I'm so glad we did -- we had an *amazing* meal! There are several tasting menus available, but since we both have dietary restrictions (her: allergic to shellfish; me: mostly vegetarian), we decided to go a la carte. We ordered 4 courses, and between two amuses-bouches and a complimentary set of chocolates at the end, ended up with 7 anyhow. We had the sommelier do wine pairings for each of our dishes, and he excelled -- everything was perfectly paired, from a champagne to go with my lightly fried artichokes and barba di frate with beet-licorice sauce, to the best supertuscan either my friend or I had ever had to go with her squab (which came, somewhat hilariously, in the biggest bowl of a wine glass I've ever seen). Just incredible. The courses themselves were delicately prepared -- dentice sashimi ("dentex" was the English translation, but I've never heard of this fish outside of Italy) with a pistachio-something glaze; the perfect incarnation of a buratta "lasagnetta"; the amazing fried thing above, the description of which sounded potentially heavy but was instead light and perfect and had me licking the bowl of the dipping sauce. Two things made this restaurant especially wonderful: One was their attention to dietary restrictions and preferences. There was a vegetarian option in *every* section of the menu, so I didn't even have to ask for special accommodation on that front; and they were wonderful and very cautious about my friend's shellfish allergy. And the second was that the dishes weren't precious -- no foam of this, powder of that, or any of your flashy molecular gastronomy techniques -- just the perfect incarnation of everything they served. The portions were also very reasonably sized -- each on the small side, but paced so you could have 6 or 7 courses and leave not feeling bloated. I'm SO happy we found this place. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a splurge in Venice! Worth every Euro-cent (and there were many of them).

I believe this was the only restaurant in all of Venice with a Michelin star, and it's well deserved. Venice is a relatively inexpensive city in which to dine, so if you wish to splurge for just one meal in Venice, do it at Quadri. The service is incredible. We met a GM of a reputable hotel who was able to get us a reservation here at the last minute, and the restaurant accommodated us very well. The menu is pricier than most places, but I'd say it's worth every euro. Each dish came prepared to explode in your mouth, and even the pasta options had very unique tastes. The wine list is fantastic, and there's no doubt you'll have a wonderful dining experience here no matter what your dietary preferences are. The most memorable part for me, however, is walking out of the restaurant. You exit out into the Piazza San Marco. Here, Quadri has a five-part band just outside under a beautifully lit gazebo. People are sitting all around it, relaxing with cocktails and coffee, enjoying the incredible sounds produced by the strings and tubes of the band. There's nothing I can write that would adequately describe this experience, but a warm summer night in Piazza San Marco, with a band playing some awesome tunes and people clapping and dancing all around, I hope everyone gets the chance to enjoy this at some point.

Loved this restaurant. Our table overlooked Piazza San Marco, beautiful view. The food was perfect and the service too. All of the staff were great, especially Katya. They really made us feel welcome. We will be back.

We came here for my 60th birthday which also happened to fall on Easter this year. Old world style excellent service. We did the tasting menu with the tasting wines. All our food was very well prepared. Some of it was a bit odd and not what we'd order again. One stand out was the sweetbreads, we just loved it, so delicate, We splurged because it was my birthday and we knew it would be expensive. But, it was really, really expensive, $650 for the 2 of us!!! Oh well, wonderful experience and you don't turn 60 more than once.

An excellent dinner. Food and service was excellent, very deserving of their Michelin Star. Quadri has a cafe and a restaurant, this review is for the restaurant.

We stopped here twice on two different days while ambling through Piazza San Marco. Excellent service and great drink menu, but incredibly pricey. I splurged on a 20 Euro Cosmopolitan and while it was delicious, it was also relatively small. They had a good beer selection. It's fun to watch the pigeons strut their stuff and even more fun to watch people feed them and upset everyone else.

Ate there last night. Room is great with a view. 50-60 euro for a small portion on pasta is a little extreme. Pretty expensive for what you get. Not a negative review just stating facts.

We have visited Venice several times and love the entire city and its many fine restaurants. (Yes there are.) This year, we were married and wanted to spend the holidays in our favorite city. For New Years, we decided to do something special and chose Ristorante Quadri. For New Years' Eve, there was a fixed menu, ten courses +, with truly amazing wine pairings with the various courses (Franciacorta brut; Champagne Perrier Jouet; Baron de "L"; Solaia 2001 Antinori; Tokaij 5 Dizsnoko; Dom Perignon 2004 Moet & Chandon.) We were requested to dress formally, so I dressed in my tuxedo. There was only one sitting--all night. When we arrived, the Piazza San Marco was beginning to fill with revelers. The city had set up a bandstand at the opposite end of the Piazza from the Basillica. The bands were just getting started when we arrived. The scene was tumultuous and the gathering crowds were ready to celebrate a wild night. This beautiful, historic restaurant is on the second floor above Cafe Quadri and has tall windows with extensive views of the Piazza. The restaurant is two separate rooms with extraordinarily high ceilings and well-spaced tables. The rooms are decorated in an authentic Venetian style: warm, red upholstered walls and Murano glass chandeliers. It is dark, elegant and intimately romantic. The atmosphere was Old World and intensely Venetian. We kept the menu, which does not adequately describe how fantastic and beautiful the various courses were, but this is what we had: Dentex carpaccio with curry sauce, pomegranate reduction, and mixed greens; Scampi crudo with hot lentil sauce; Fried red shrimp and scallops with sunflower seed puree and spicy sauce; Smoked mezzi paccheri with spider crab, lobster, caviar, and herb sauce; Pumpkin and parsley consumme; Hare risotto with foie gras sauce; Beef cheek braised in Amarone with polenta dumplings; upside-down cappuccino, gold bigne with zabajone, extra virgin olive oil panettone, carmelized fruit, and nougat. And cafe. (I'm not sure anyone was having the cafe, since they were pouring the Dom at the time, and the Fireworks show out in the lagoon was welcoming the new year and was pleasantly visible from the restaurant windows. At the end of the dinner, the chef and staff emerged from the kitchen in their tall, white hats and were given a standing ovation by the customers. A magical night all around.

Fantastic! This restaurants is a gem! It is one of the best restaurants in Venice. It's not cheap, but it's well worth it. The view is amazing, the food is delicious and creative, the waiters are very sweet. So if you're looking for a romantic place to take your lady for dinner this restaurant would the the best choice!
