Impronta means imprint.
The restaurant is not close to St. Mark's Square, you even have to take the Vaporetto, and if you are in a hurry you have to walk across the Rialto Bridge, but it’s quite a stroll. But if you decided to go for a walk, why not.
The problem is that you have to make a reservation because they are a fine dining restaurant, which, however, has quite decent prices and many people want to visit it. They deserve a Michelin star if the inspectors ask me. Why I think so, read below.
See .... … I didn't expect anything from the interior, but when I entered, I realized that there is a concept and it is related to the name of the restaurant. Slogans and stylish illustrations with messages about the footprint we all leave; ... Upholstered chairs in pastel colors - rose ash and beige.
Feel …. … Good service with adequate wine and food recommendations; … These upholstered chairs are very comfortable and soft; … Crunchy chips in the starter with dried cod caviar. Cod is something of a local specialty to try. ..........
Hear …. ... Italian music, but there were a lot of people, and the place is small, so we could hear more of the various languages around us.
Smell .... … A super combination of aromas in the appetizer of dried cod caviar and red onion ice cream - besides the very light playful aroma of this ice cream, the light fishiness of the caviar, there was sprinkled ground coffee on the side and everything exploded in an extravaganza of smells that perfectly combined; … We had ordered a wine of 80% Garganega and 20% Chardonnay varieties. The Garganega is very similar to the Sauvignon Blanc in terms of characteristics and in combination with the Chardonnay they entered into a great partnership with the starter as well. But this wine goes very well with my main - goose leg.
Taste .... ... Goose leg - it is cooked very slowly, I guess confit, and it is very tender and tasty. They combined it with mashed potatoes and some gravy from the roast; … From the appetizers, the ricotta ravioli pasta was with walnuts and parsley, zucchini sauce, very nice! One of my children quickly ate it; … Sedanini amatrichana with shrimps - they were so delicious that my other daughter ate them very quickly; … The big choice was the Iberico with mashed potatoes and chips. Super-crispy, lightly grilled, so that its bacon was wilting on a crisp. The chips were crisp and crunchy poked in the mashed potatoes! They suggested we combine it with red wine Merlot and Cabernet - Super Tuscany! Super combination. … The desserts were superb - a wonderful panna cotta, just as smooth in texture, a chocolate tart with ice cream and a crêpe flambé filled with fruit.
I highly recommend Impronta and to visit it an hour sooner, because if Michelin passes there, it will give them a star for sure and they will...
Read moreAfter days of culinary let downs in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, we finally found a place that matched its surroundings. Being in Venice with its many beautiful narrow and intersecting Calle, bridges and canals, it’s easy to pass by places that merit a second glance as you’re focused on your phone telling you how to get somewhere or taking pictures or even just daydreaming. This is the place your phone should be directing you to. There are many many restaurants in Venice and only so many meals in a day and with an abundance of tourists come restaurants that put quantity over quality. After being disillusioned time and time again by reviews of other restaurants, I decided to pass by this place before eating here to see if it was quality or quantity that was being served and I immediately booked a reservation for that evening’s dinner and it ended up being the best meal we had in Venice during our entire stay. The place is not very big just like many other restaurants in Venice but it has a nice modern and elegant decor. The service was impeccable and there wasn’t a moment that we felt forgotten or ignored. With each new beautifully plated dish that was brought out were also new cutlery and a server who would politely clean the table of any crumbs. The presentation of the food makes you want to take a picture of every dish that is placed in front of you and the quality, taste and combination of flavors leaves you wanting for more and in fact we ended up ordering seconds of our Antipasti because of how delicious they were. Having eaten at Michelin starred restaurants, I must say that Impronta with their service, quality of ingredients, flavors and presentation are easily on that level but in a way that feels genuinely authentic and unpretentious with their staff and chef who clearly want to serve top quality, delicious food that’s plated beautifully in a...
