Ai Garzoti

A favourite restaurant of ours for the past four years or so when visiting Venice.
It is well off the beaten track, but it's worth the effort to get there.
Nothing fancy decor wise, but the food is first class.
A favourite forever.

Dinner at 1900. Fast service. Friendly staff running a tight ship. Great prices. No crumbs left behind.

Had our dinner here
Foods was okay
Service is good
Drink is great
Overall great experience.

Nice place to visit, small but cozy. The staff speaks English an all of them are very friendly. They have a small area to sit outside when the weather is nice and inside some tables. If you are close by you can try but it will be better if you do a reservation because there is no much tables.
Food was good, quality and taste, the drinks as well.
The menu has traditional Italian food and drinks.
At the end you get as courtesy a glass of digestive, it was a nice gesture, thanks.

We have visited this place twice and enjoyed our meals. Nice exposed brick on the inside. Courteous and friendly service. They have over 35 pizza choices…the ham and mushroom pizza was terrific. Also good with their linguine with clams. We had no problem with the service…waitresses were friendly and attentive:

A true Italian food destination, we wish we found this on our first night. Finally finding food that is authentic, flavorful and above the standard set by the North End of Boston, USA. House wine is great and could be drank by the barrel. Venice is overall saturated now with restaurants to fulfill the demand from tourists. This is a gem and hope it stays that way. A review for those that are diligent in their search.

This is a cute little restaurant tucked away from the busy Grand Canal. My friend and I went for a late dinner and it wasn’t busy at all. The restaurant was cute and had a great vibe. It also wasn’t very expensive with our total bill being around 60€ for 2 mains, an appetizer, 2 large cokes, and a bottle of flat water.

The food was incredibly. It was the best thing I have eaten in Italy so far. The calamari was cooked perfectly with perfect seasoning. The breading was crunchy and stayed on the calamari. I ordered the linguine and clams and it was incredible. The clams were very fresh and the pasta was cooked perfectly. The sauce was balanced with just the right amount of salt and acidity.

I would highly recommend this restaurant.
