Venice Restaurant Guide: Seafood Pasta & More Under €8!

After eating my way through Venice, I’ve rounded up the best budget-friendly spots loved by locals and travelers alike 😋 🍤 Fried Land ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Menu Attached) 📍 Campiello dei Fiori, 2287, 30100 Venezia VE Best value! A small spot on the main island serving crispy fried seafood and squid ink pasta 🦑. Most dishes under €10 — generous portions and delicious! 💰 Two people can share a squid ink pasta + fried seafood platter for just over €10! 🚤 Get off at Ca' D'Oro water bus stop → 5-min walk. Look for the humble alleyway spot (see photo). 🍦 Suso Gelato ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍 Sotoportego de la Bissa, 5453, 30124 Venezia The best gelato in Venice! 🍧 Rich flavors, loved by locals. Just 500m from Libreria Acqua Alta — perfect combo visit. 🍝 Da Michele ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍 Via Cappuccina, 177, 30172 Venezia VE Near Mestre Station. Famous for huge portions (squid ink pasta & seafood spaghetti), but a bit salty for my taste. €20-25/person. Good if you’re nearby, but not worth a special trip. 🥢 Huaqiao Restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍 Via Piave, 149, 30171 Venezia VE Also near Mestre Station. Wenzhou-style Chinese dishes 🥡. Prices: €6-12/dish. Their twice-cooked pork is a win! 🔜 Coming soon: Ultimate Venice travel + ticket guide! 😉 #VeniceFood #SquidInkPasta #ItalyTravel #BudgetEats #VeniceGuide #Foodie
