    Our Favorite restaurant in Venice! Went for Sunday lunch a got the best table on the patio next to the fire pit. Always order the truffle & mushroom pizza. It’s a winner! The smoked salmon and toast with capers and pickles onion, herbed cream cheese spot on. The candied bacon delish! We also had the panini which was excellent…… don’t skip dessert! Warm date cake with a gooey sauce topped with vanilla ice cream Ned’s I say more! Thank you host & hostess for an amazing table.

    Very great experience dining here! I usually come here when it’s super packed but luckily the day I went (and the time) it was not packed at all. With it being less busy, the ambiance was nice and quiet. I was able to hear my conversations. The food was amazing!! The Sweet Corn Agnolotti was very good but lacked a sufficient amount for how much the dish is. The Spicy Pomodoro was amazing!! One of my favorites here and for the amount of pasta it has, it is worth your money. I was not expecting to like the Banana Tiramisu but I enjoyed it so much! I wish I got two but I ended up getting so full haha. Overall 9/10 experience!

    Food was excellent  and the ambience and view was amazing. But the only thing is the lady outside told us there were no tables available so she put us on the waitlist. We waited for an hour, but when we looked up on OpenTable, there were lots of spaces available so don’t rely on the people on the front desk and check OpenTable for reservations and availabilities.

    The service was great, the food was good, as well as the view. The room, however, is nothing special; it is a multi-purpose room which happens to serve as a tea room for the occasion. There is unfortunately nothing in the design of the room which enhances the Garden Tea experience. To be truly successful, the Garden Tea needs its own space.
