Sombody who says this is the best place in Venice has obviously not eaten anywhere else but Tavernetta. The Restaurant is at best very mediocre and profiting by the location near the Hotel. Excelsior. It is better to eat in Venice and use the Hotel shuttle; there seems little choice of Restaurants on the Lido, but we have not tried... More

This family owned and run restaurtant was well worth the walk, building up an appetite for a most beautiful lunch. On arrival we were welcomed and given an excellent outline of the dishes available.

We ordered two portions of fillet beef barded with bacon, the beef was chewy, fatty and very unevenly cooked and the bacon was literally two small... More
