Good place for a special occasion

I like the decor of this restaurant. The chairs are comfortable, just the right lighting. There are not many places in Venice that are as classy as this one. Our party of 6 had reservations, we had excellent service, and great food. I had a sea bass special with lots of vegetables. I had a dessert that made me think, "this is the way a dessert ought to be". Big round scoop of raspberry ice cream dipped in chocolate to form a hard shell, and nicely presented on the plate. Others in our group had salmon that one said was the best prepared he had seen in a long time. The salads looked delicious, but I had a tomato basil soup that melted in your mouth. It was a Friday night, and the crowd was noisy for awhile, and there was live music. I had a Riesling from the State of Washington that was the sweetest Riesling I have ever tasted, but very good. They are part of the downtown Venice scene, which is pretty quiet, even on a Friday night. Lots of parking, and outdoor seating.

What Are Customers are Saying

Fabulous service from Michelle, an experienced and thoroughly professional waitress. My dinner companion and I wanted to share our entrees with each-other, and preferred one of the sides over another. Michelle gave us each a plate with half of each entre and the preferred side. The braised romaine lettuce was fabulous, with just the right amount of balsamic vinaigrette. The dining room can be noisy.
