Restaurants near Basilica di San Marco

I had lunch with a friend at Terrazza Danieli during our day trip to Venice, and it was lovely! We requested a table at the end of the terrace and the view from both seats was just beautiful. The service was excellent and very attentive!

Excellent experience ! Food and drinks specially Bellini were amazing! The Carpaccio was the best I had tasted !

After being in Italy for 2 weeks, it was nice to have an American menu. The food was very good and the people were very friendly and welcoming. The location is perfect beside the gondolas

Serafina is a beautiful restaurant and its staff and service are very accomodating. We enjoyed a glass of white wine. The bread on the table was a day old and olive oil had to be asked for. We started the dinner with a pasta dish of spaghetti with clams . The dish was overly salty . Had this been our only dish the rating would be different but next we had the Mediterranean Sea bass which was perfectly prepared with an amazing presentation. The roasted potatoes that arrived with the dish were properly prepared - hot and crispy. With pasta as a first course a vegetable with the fish would have been preferable but had we read this review we would have skipped the pasta. You need an 1.5 hours to dine here as things take time at Serafina. If you go, order the fresh fish and perhaps an appetizer. Had that been the case it would be close to 5 stars.

We loved Da Bubi!! We found this hidden gem on our second night in Venice. We enjoyed ourselves so much the first visit, that we returned here the next evening after a not so good experience at another restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff is great! We ended up here 3 times in our 5 day stay as my husband was obsessed with their pasta. Recommend the pistachio cream ravioli and the truffle Parmesan fettuccini cooked and tossed flambé style in a huge block of Parmesan cheese. The shrimp in the potato mouse starter was excellent too. The chocolate pudding desert and the gelato with a delicious Carmel sauce on top were both outstanding! We will be back out next visit to Venice!
