The location is informal and has a warm and relaxing atmosphere, excellent for those who love quality and essence, proposed here with simplicity, like in a family. A stop not to be missed if you want to eat in a restaurant with dishes with traditional flavours. The daily light makes it perfect for a business lunch or a pleasant break after a long walk through the narrow streets of Venice. While the evening lights transform it into a suitable location for a dinner with family, couples or friends. The "Aquila" menu supports the formula of the simple dish, where the very light aromas of Mediterranean cuisine stand out. International and national come together in the atmosphere created and in the recipes proposed by the Chef which enhance the products and freshness of each individual. To accompany your romantic lunches or dinners we will take care of our wine cellar chosen specifically to accompany each individual dish and the sweetness of home-prepared pastries.

Hostaria OsottoOsopra was born from a fortuitous meeting, between the streets of Venice.With a coffee and a chat, the dream of opening a restaurant with friends seemed to really take shape for the first time.In August 2017, those that were initially only ideas are transformed into reality, within the walls of a former pub in Calle San Pantalon, a stone's throw from Campo Santa Margherita.It would not make sense to open yet another tourist place in Venice, only to then get confused among the many restaurants around the city.No, Hostaria OsottoOsopra was supposed to be something different. It had to be a place to feel at home, where eating well in Venice became possible at a reasonable price and where the service, always in the hand but always elegant, made me want to come back.At the opening, Hosteria OsottoOsopra looked like this: with the atmosphere of a typical Venetian hostaria, but from the almost gourmet kitchen.

    Afternoon tea experience. First rate selection of teas, infusions, sandwiches, cakes and beautiful scones. Wonderfully comfortable salon under stunning and enormously valuable Ai Weiwei chandelier. Arrive by boat or quiet discrete front entrance. Stay for the 5pm sabre opening of champagne to mark the transition of day to evening at the St Regis. It’s great fun. The staff are extremely hospitable, warm and engaging and they work hard.

    Interesting decorations where thousands of Aperol bottles on the selves give a warm orange hue in the restaurant. Staff courteous and professional. Excellent food. The Fegato (liver) alla Veneziana just as it should be. Tables a bit crowded Entrance door right next to some tables was left open be incoming/outcoming customers and an icy draft was present. Overall a memorable Christmas Eve dinner.
