Restaurants near Porta San Tomaso

It;s all about the view and the people! Food was well prepared but expensive.

Serafina is a beautiful restaurant and its staff and service are very accomodating. We enjoyed a glass of white wine. The bread on the table was a day old and olive oil had to be asked for. We started the dinner with a pasta dish of spaghetti with clams . The dish was overly salty . Had this been our only dish the rating would be different but next we had the Mediterranean Sea bass which was perfectly prepared with an amazing presentation. The roasted potatoes that arrived with the dish were properly prepared - hot and crispy. With pasta as a first course a vegetable with the fish would have been preferable but had we read this review we would have skipped the pasta. You need an 1.5 hours to dine here as things take time at Serafina. If you go, order the fresh fish and perhaps an appetizer. Had that been the case it would be close to 5 stars.

We had the most incredible meal and experience at Restaurant Terrazza Danieli. I also had a concern about a dietary restriction and the staff were so helpful. The head chef even came out to ensure I was comfortable and to reassure me how the meal was prepared. Truly a luxe experience you will not regret the splurge on! If you are not staying on the Grand Canal this is a great opportunity to get those incredible views of the city from above. Highly recommend making a reservation well in advance. We were a little late to the game and ended up making a lunch reservation and it was just as delightful! Thank you Restaurant Terrazza Danieli!

Always great fun…a must for lunch when in Venice!

We loved Da Bubi!! We found this hidden gem on our second night in Venice. We enjoyed ourselves so much the first visit, that we returned here the next evening after a not so good experience at another restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff is great! We ended up here 3 times in our 5 day stay as my husband was obsessed with their pasta. Recommend the pistachio cream ravioli and the truffle Parmesan fettuccini cooked and tossed flambé style in a huge block of Parmesan cheese. The shrimp in the potato mouse starter was excellent too. The chocolate pudding desert and the gelato with a delicious Carmel sauce on top were both outstanding! We will be back out next visit to Venice!
