We were in Venice this past New Year&rsquo;s Eve and wanted to enjoy a traditional Italian multi-course meal, which they do up big for New Year&rsquo;s Eve.  We had done the same in Rome a few years back and were not disappointed.  Many restaurants have a fixed price menu that night that allows you to sit down and just enjoy.  I had read some good reviews of this restaurant, noticed it was featured in Rick Steve&#39;s guide, and liked the look of the online photos; so decided it was likely worth the 150 euro per person price tag (not including wine).I won&#39;t try to describe every course but none would be considered great by any standards.  The main course consisted of a &quot;sea bass&quot; filet, fried shrimp, and grilled polenta with a side of eggplant parmigiana.  The poor little &quot;sea bass&quot; (which it wasn&#39;t a true sea bass) was maybe a centimeter thick and tasted like they poured a little salad dressing over the top to give it flavor; the shrimp were overcooked and flavorless, and the polenta cold and rubbery.  The biggest disappointment was the eggplant parmigiana.  I know a good eggplant parm and this was nothing like I had ever seen.  It was a grayish/black blob resting in a puddle of what I can only assume was all the oil that had been cooked out of the parmesan presented on a separate little plate.  It was completely inedible.  We did notice several other diners near us complaining about their meals so we knew we were not out of line in our thinking.  Several of the dishes, including the parmigiana we sent back after only a couple bites.  The first time we did this the waiter inquired if we did not like it, and when we said no I caught him rolling his eyes.  Regarding the service; it was pretty dismal; the food was brought to the table with not even a word of explanation of what it was and trying to get the attention of a waiter was near impossible.  We simply did not feel welcome.

The food quality is exceptional, especially the scallops and truffle pasta. The presentation was beautiful, making each dish a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.

This restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere with friendly staff. The traditional Italian food is delicious, and the prices are quite reasonable for the quality.

Fun hosts, great vibe for drinks. Sat by the window watching the Rialto Bridge. A bit loud inside, but that&rsquo;s the energy here. Good spot to end the night.

Been coming here for lunch breaks. The menu has a lot of options, which is nice when you want something different. Got the chicken pesto pasta today&mdash;fresh and hit the spot.

The piadina dough is pretty good. It has that nice Romagna thickness, not too thin or thick. Held the fillings well. A decent spot for a quick lunch.

Cozy spot with a nice patio out back. Liked the simple decor, felt personal. Had a quick lunch here, just a sandwich and a coffee. Good for a casual bite.

Lovely traditional spot. The venison was the highlight for me - really tender and flavorful. I appreciate that they focus on quality ingredients, you can taste the freshness. Portions are generous too. A solid choice if you enjoy game dishes.
