Cà D'oro alla Vedova

We needed some protein on our souls lol but our options were limited. So we got the meatballs which are served with polenta and the fried fish. We also had the house tiramisu, overall a good experience.

DO NOT visit this restaurant unless you would like to destroy your weekend night.

We entered the restaurant, all the waiters ignored us. We asked for availability, the waiter just said “nothing at the moment”, then walked away. That’s it.

But we still ordered meat balls and stand by the bar. One of the waiter took away our plate without asking, and he throw the plate back onto the unused plates, because it looks “clean”.
It’s not clean, bro.

By the way, the meat balls are just “meat ball”, nothing special.

We were glad to have made reservations because it was packed even on a Wednesday night at at 19:30. The food was delicious with large servings for a very reasonable price. There wasn’t a single dish we didn’t like. For antipasti we got the meatballs which had a lovely garlicky flavour and crispy outer shell while the polenta with baccalà monticato was very creamy perfect combination. The atmosphere was also very pleasant with no loud unpleasant music and just cozy we could hear each other talk. Very fast service and friendly staff. Strongly recommend.

Their reviews are well deserved. We arrived at around 7:30 and the entire place was packed. A line out the door. But I went in and asked if there was a table available for 6. They said they had one reserved but if we wanted to we could sit immediately and eat as long as we left by 8:30 when their reservation came. Which was so kind of them and we were sat right away, all six of us. The server was prompt and tried to explain things to us in English even though he spoke only Italian and Spanish. We ordered and the food came very quickly. Everything was delicious and beautiful. He kept refilling our bread which was nice. The half carafe of wine was enough for three glasses and was only 10 euro. The food was a perfect portion size, we ordered four entrees and it was enough for all six of us. The meatballs were incredibly. The pastas were perfect. And the service was very fast and accommodating. Please excuse the state of the food in the photos, we had already started eating it was so good.

Das Essen war geschmacklich gut. Die Gemüselasagne war leider sehr klein, der Service etwas speziell. Uns wurde ohne Reservierung ein kleiner Tisch am Ausgang bereit gestellt. Allerdings wurden wir nach dem wir bestellt hatten und das Essen sehr schnell gebracht wurde, nicht mehr beachtet und verzichteten daher auf einen Nachtisch.
Uns entstand der Eindruck, dass der Service recht stark variierte je nachdem, ob man Italiener oder Tourist war, dies beobachteten wir sowohl bei den Infos, wann ein Tisch frei würde als auch beim Service am Tisch.
Es ist ein bisschen schade, dass wir keine bessere Erfahrung machen konnten, da der Laden sehr gemütlich / urig ist und die Bedienung grundsätzlich sehr freundlich war. Mit größeren Portionen und einem aufmerksameren Service, wäre es super gewesen.

The food was fine, but was grossly overpriced for what it was. We stood at the bar and had snacks - two meatballs, two small plates of vegetables, three cicchetti. We ordered sparkling water, and rather than getting the bottle, he opened the bottle and poured two tiny glasses of it. And that was 43 euros. Unless you want to sit down and have an expensive meal, go somewhere else.

It’s a trap! One of those rip offs in Venice.
Bad food, bad service for a high price.
We ordered the squid ink pasta and the squid in garlic and onions. Also polpetti as a starter. Everything was salty, the starter arrived after the main dishes. The waiter forgot the beverages. A disaster.
Do not go here!
