Wildner

We are reviewing the restaurant, not the hotel! The servers seemed a bit cold up front but warmed up by the end of it. Maybe they’re used to other American tourists being obnoxious but we were on our best behavior! The food was great as was the house wine. We came here on a recommendation from our Gondola driver!

Terrible place, staff rude & aggressive Tried to charge us for 2 waters when we only asked for one then when we asked for the one water to be taken off the bill the tall waiter with glasses snatched it from our hand then threw it back at us. Over priced, commercial food. Staff we nice until they had our food orders, never had such rude staff. Worst place we have ever eaten in Venice

Review of the restaurant: if you want to keep your liver - stay away! This place has the worst food in whole Italy! They will give you spoiled food, strage "salad" and side of self-made chips boiled in rancid oil, which was boiling more than 100 times before! This place needs to be checked by health institutions of Italy and reported through social media! Also they will charge you for putting tablecloth on the table - 3 euro from person! All dishes are bad and overpriced! Total scam! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Worst experience ever, the oil where they make the food it's old and taste and smell dreadfull. I was puking all the night. Run from this restaurant. Even more, they charge us 170 Euro for 3 people with such bad quality, asking for a tip was just a joke.

Absolutely amazing experience at Wildner as always. We quickly got a same day reservation after having an issue with a different hotel. The staff was very accommodating, helpful and friendly. They even recognized my husband from years ago when he stayed with family! |The included breakfast was very good and we enjoyed the lunch we got there another day too!|The staff seem like Italian locals with a family feel to the hotel. |The location is a quick walk to water taxi, St. Mark’s and many other restaurants and shops. |I cannot recommend this hotel enough!!

We actually stayed at this hotel April 2024. The hotel was quite outdated. Musty smell and the hotel told us that all of the a/c is not working. The view was nice, but it indeed felt like we were staying in a room that has not been updated in decades. There is no lift so you will be taking your luggage by stairs. Our visit to Venice was wonderful, but we would never stay at this hotel again and would not recommend.

Outstanding Service and Thoughtful Staff We stayed at this hotel for a short trip and were very impressed with the excellent service from the staff. Although we had paid for breakfast for two days, we had to leave early in the morning due to transport strikes. We assumed there wouldn’t be any alternative, so we didn’t ask for a refund or takeaway. To our surprise, the staff actually asked us if we wanted a takeaway breakfast and even checked for other options to help us get to the train station instead of walking. Their thoughtfulness and initiative really made a difference during a stressful situation. It’s rare to experience service this attentive and proactive. Highly recommended for anyone who values genuine hospitality!

Very sad to see this restaurant fall to the level of scam and crime. I have been here many times over the years for dinner and enjoyed the food. But today at lunch one of the waitresses charged me 18 euros for ice, the items she charged me for were not listed on the menu. When I tried to complain she immediately threatened to call the police on me in a totally unnecessary escalation. Customers should be allowed to complain about the prices and charges that were no on the menu without being threatened with law enforcement. Totally insane interaction. Completely deranged waitress desperate for money with no shame, quite a shock to experience at what I thought was a respectable restaurant.

First food experience in Venice. Found this place on Yelp. Surprised that there were very little review given the location was around a busy corner by the dock. Ordered variety of dishes including clam spaghetti, scallops, fried calamari and fish, risotto , etc. food was amazing. Very nicely cooked and well portioned. Our server was super nice and quick. Which was kind of a rarity in Italy. Favorite highlight was scallops , super fresh and sweet. Also the squid ink scuttle fish with polenta was creamy and tasty If this was not reviewed by many I highly recommend this hidden gem. Would definitely be back if I were ever in the area again.

Love this place. Great for an aperitivo or dinner. Great food, wonderful wines and the service is fantastic. I go there whenever I am in Venice.

We are in Venice and decided to have dinner at a restaurant by the Grand Canal. We tried this restaurant based on outdoor seating, view and 4 star rating. I ordered the artichoke bottoms as a side, eggplant parmigiana, spaghetti a olio (for my son) and spaghetti a vongole. 1st, I asked to sit at a table by the outdoor edge but was told all tables were reserved so they stuck us at a table outside but back corner next to a closed window. 2nd, artichokes were average. 3rd, spaghetti came beyond al dente for both dishes (just give me a box of uncooked pasta). Note, no one asked us how we wanted the spaghetti cooked. The only highlight was good service and a good eggplant parmigiana. Last, we paid and left and no one sat while we were there at the reserved tables (5). I would not recommend this restaurant.

Ristorante Wildner was recommended to us by our hotel, and it did not disappoint. We ordered the roasted sea bass with potatoes and marinara sauce, macaroni pasta with bolognese sauce, and sautéed lover Venetian style. Every dish was delicious. The pasta was cooked perfectly - al dente, but not too chewy. The sea bass was super fresh, and the liver was super savory. We ordered a bottle of tasty chianti, and Chinotto Italien soda, to go with the meal. The service was friendly, and the ambiance was warm and family-like. I would highly recommend this place!

Appetizers and Dinner were delicious. Drinks were good. Right across from the water. Good for people watching. Watched as a families portrait was drawn by a street vendor. Very relaxing and good service. If you are looking for a nice casual place for dinner this is a safe bet.

We are in Venice with 20 to 30 Mio. visitors every year (depending on the source) - ok a lot daily tourists but still - a huge number of tourists invading the city and want to eat: breakfast, lunch and dinner - so you really think you will find a restaurant easily not focused on tourists - maybe in your dreams or what you like to experience during your vacation. So the point is to find a spot which is not a tourist trap or at least you get something for your money and in Venice your money "is not worth the same" - Venice is just very expensive even with all the competition around. At least the Wildner is a spot where the Service is very friendly. The servers like to make a joke and speak with the customers - if you don't like that you shouldn't go there. The food is good and you get good sized portions and the prices are Venice-reasonable. The Restaurant is located a couple of walking minutes behind S. Marco at the Canale with a nice patio. It's not a very large restaurant - so not to many people in also in high season (we were in end of July) but it's quite noisy because of the size. I had the mussels and the grilled fish for two and some cheese to finish. I wouldn't say the best fish ever but all good and well prepared. The wine list is ok and you find a good selection between €30 - €40. So overall a good place in Venice I would definitely come again.

Had an excellent salad. Then an excellent pizza. My wife had credibly pasta with Ragu. Very creatively presented Overall excellent food.

It is one of the restaurant along the coast line close to St Mark's Square. True to the reviews, the food at this place is good. More importantly, the price is reasonable by Venetian standard. We mainly had the pasta dishes, and they do not disappoint. Waiters are very nice as well.

Favorite restaurant in Venice, period. Beautifully cooked food which is consistently good, friendly wait staff, great location for people watching. If you're planning on having dinner here, make a reservation. It gets busy with both tourists and locals - always a good sign, especially for a restaurant so close to St. Mark's. Don't miss the panna cotta!

Delicious!! Pizza with zucchini and zucchini flowers with the lightest crust and a creamy cheese . Melon and prosciutto. Dry delicious prosecco. Outdoor terrace watching the boats and people go by. Quiet and lovely.
