Sweet and Sour Sardines, Creamed Dried Cod. Once you've tasted these, you'll want to try more.

Locally sourced octopus, sardines, sea crickets, prawns, scallops, mussels and clams.

And to keep up with tradition, we offer various Venetian cichetti.

Traditional Venetian first courses are:

Bigoli in Salsa, wholewheat spaghetti served with a sauce of salted sardines and white onions.

Spaghetti with Squid, prepared in its own ink.

Pasta e Fagioli - a typical Italian pasta and bean soup, but in Venice, cooked in a different way.

Risottos: From fish risotto to seasonal vegetable risotto. This dish is one of our most popular.

Baccala', Stoccafisso, Squid and Fegato alla Veneziana, are the most traditional dishes.

We prepare Stoccafisso in various ways - creamed, alla Vicentina, or stewed with tomatoes. It remains one of our most popular dishes.

Baccala' - roasted in the oven or dipped in batter and fried.

Of course, you will find the usual fried and roast fish locally sourced from our own Adriatic Sea.

Moeche, soft shell crabs, are a speciality of the lagoon. They are crabs in a phase of shedding their shells, and are available in spring and autumn. They are usually coated in flour and egg and fried.

Fegato di Vitello alla Veneziana, (calves' liver) made with white onions, always accompanied by our delicate white polenta.

Apart from these typical Venetian specialities, we prepare very day, other Italian dishes, both meat and fish, according to season or the imagination of our chefs.

Every day we prepare a vast assortment of vegetables.

Fondi di Carciofo (artichoke bottoms), Castraure (small artichokes), deep fried vegetables in batter, such as pumpkin flowers, aubergines, courgettes - all of which come from the Island of S. Erasmo - Venice's vegetable garden.

We have put together a special menu for those who have food intolerances, in particular people suffering from coeliac disease.

We make sweets and biscuits ranging from l'Amoretto, whose name says it all, to the classic Tiramisu' and Apple, Almond and Lemon tarts.

Our wine list includes, with nostalgia and affection, some wines from Puglia, and over fifty or so Venetian labels, plus wines from Friuli and other Italian regions.
