This restaurant has a outdoor seating area right next to a canal, where gondolas glide by and the city’s charm hums in the air. Each dish we tried had fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. I had ordered a pasta with pesto sauce, and the server was nice enough to suggest that I could have it without the pesto sauce. Nevertheless I tried the pasta with the pesto sauce and decided I should have listened to him! The scallops with garlic sauce were tender, perfectly seared and buttery The service was impeccable, attentive and friendly without being intrusive.

We had a lovely lunch away from the high traffic areas. Fantastic service from Lori. This is a restaurant right on a quiet section of canal. Enjoyed the burrata, octopus salad, and garlic bread. It was delicious!

The food was amazing...our kids are kinda picky eaters and they ate everything and loved it. This is right on the canal with great atmosphere - not too busy and not too noisy. Gentle breeze with no direct sun.

Service and food were excellent. Dined alone outside along the canal watching gondolas and water taxis. Side salad and pasta carbonara with house red were an excellent choice after a busy day. I will be back.
