Ristorante Al Graspo De Ua — Restaurant in Venice

STAY AWAY… TERRIBLE. I usually save my comments for the gems I find, but if this review saves you from from going there, you’ll thank me. The rating for this place (which is thankfully hard to find) is FAKE! We had a 6:30pm reservation (we had a Vivaldi concert to attend that night), and the restaurant didn’t open until 7pm!?! There was a single rude & annoyed employee who didn’t speak a word of English & disappeared. The kitchen was empty and I doubt there was an oven on back there… no prep happening, not even water boiling. The dining room was dimly lit, dingy and had a school cafeteria feel. My husband & I looked at each other and ran out of there. Trust me… you’ll eat better just...

We’ve read plenty of reviews and decided to give this place a try. No dish has impressed us, everything was rather usual. And for this price it should be something more than usual. The portions were not too big. We ordered only meat dishes, maybe the fish dishes are better here. For the lamb there were only 5 pieces. We ate with the Fork discount and for the desserts the discount was not applied. We ordered grilled vegetables as a side dish to the meat and for there were 2 slices of zucchini and 3 slices of aubergine. The service was decent but keep in mind that coperto is 3€ per person. Again, all in all, everything tasted well...

Stumbled on this gem. Was waiting for the water taxi, and the kids were hungry so I googled restaurants nearby.

Saw this place with the 4 star rating that was close by.

Wow. Food was absolutely delicious. Am surprised the rating isn’t much higher.

Outside of typical pasta dishes (carbonara, spaghetti, squid ink pasta. etc), that my kids ordered, we tried a steak dish and a sardine appetizer.

All the dishes were super delicious.

For me the favorite was the sardine with onions, rocket and pine nuts. Not a fan of raisins in general so I definitely pushed those aside. ...
