Al Fontego Dei Pescatori

Our experience in no way resembles the reviews (except the most recent). Indifferent sourcing and cooking a terrible wine list. A huge disappointment. And expensive too. Best to avoid.

we were on a group and we had free time, so we decided to eat here at lunch, the staff very friendly and helpful, which was lunch, what I expected and delicious I would recommend this place.

Nice staff, well situated just a supershort walk from the main walkway. Seems to be a bit of a local place. Ok pizza and a nice pasta dish even though it was not what I thought it would be rather I got octopus. Speisekarte ansehen

an intelligent blue and white interieur sets the scene for simple yet exquisite seafood dishes: pasta with spinnenkrab; by penne del doge, with thunfisch, oliven, whitebait and kapern. end them with a delicious potent sgroppine sorbet.

we had a fantastic dinner at al fontego dei pescatori. the garnel cocktail was different and fresh. I had the laughs, my man had the chicken paintings. while eating was excellent, the server adrianna was a highlight. their fun setting and the light. the decommissioning of my Tuscan mannes made our evening to remember. the staff was very friendly and even spoiled my man in hiis favorites after dinner coffee a pucino. while it was not on the menu, they followed eagerly his instructions. our last dinner in venice was unforgettable. also, all these tasty foods was reasonably expensive.

I am trying to find the right title for my review. this restaurant looks like a caffe, but eating is good. I think eating is Indian for home kitchen of the region, but it has cost everything well and the service was friendly...and efficient. there were also local and regular who brought me to this conclusion. I would recommend this, as I would recommend individual home cooking restaurants, rather than state-of-the-art. we all enjoyed our meal, although we were not 100% sure what we ordered. I would visit again; our bill matched all the other meal times we had in venice - I think I would have preferred to pay a little less. Speisekarte ansehen

We found this place by mistake, as the restaurant that we intended to go to was fully booked. The waiter recommended that we tried this place instead and I'm so glad he did! It was quite quiet do not be put off by this,...it must be due to location rather than quality of food. We had the calamari, which was delicious, very well cooked with a light and crispy batter. We also enjoyed the wine, beer and a beautiful side dish of carciofi! The desserts were very good too. We thought it was quite reasonably priced considering the quality of the food and prices of other nearby restaurants. It's definitely worth giving this place a try, especially if you enjoy seafood and fish. The service was excel...

Wonderful service and quality food. We made an early reservation for dinner at 6:30 pm as we were heading to airport early the next morning. Warm greeting by staff and were served in a welcoming slow timeframe as we requested. Appetizer of prosciutto and melon,...although not original, was excellent. Lovely bottle of dry Soave Blanco with our meal of pork cutlet with lemon and mixed grilled seafood was perfect. All cooked to order and done well. Complimentary bread basket and i asked for tap water vs bottled water The waiter happily brought us a carafe of tap water and no extra charge. 2 Euro per person cover charge highlighted on menu. Not a problem. Service not included. Wonderful Panna Co...

This was our second trip to this restaurant. On our first visit, 7 years ago, we had an amazing experience, hence deciding to return to celebrate my 50th Birthday in Venice. We pre-booked a table, and were surprised to find the restaurant half empty on...a Saturday evening. We both ordered a raw fish starter, of mixed seafood, costing 25 Euros each. At best, this was average. House wine was 30 Euros for the cheapest bottle. The main course was a spectacular disappointment. I opted for salmon fillet, which was cooked to resemble the texture of rubber, and served with two varities of lettuce and some shredded cabbage, resembling school dinners, not the dining experience we expected from the re...
