Taverna San Lio - VENEZIA

What a wonderful find. Stumbled upon this gem our first night in Venice. Met two of the owners, lifelong Venetians. Amazing food, great advice for hidden spots to explore and even cooking demo’s with whole fish orders. Beautiful, delicious and incredibly friendly. Did not get a pic of our fish of the day but it was delightful!

We had dinner here on our first evening in Venice. We partly chose it bc it was open and we were hungry. Most places didn’t open until 6:30. We ate here at 4:45. Server was very cheerful and made it a good experience. He could speak English and Spanish so we were able to communicate with both languages. We made wine recommendations. Food was good. I had the special, Branzino. It did have a lot of bones and was filleted with the head so if that bothers you fine get that. It was simple but very tasty. My daughter had a salad with nuts and berries on it. My husband and other daughter both had pasta and were happy with their dishes. A good option for dinner

Fantastic food and service. You should plan to eat here while in Venice. Taverna San lio stands well above the other restaurants. The chef special (gnocchi with duck sauce) was amazing. The fried anchovies were top notch and my family (not big seafood eaters usually) loved it all.

El menjar exquisit, però una mica car. Així i tot, per ser Venecia es pot soportar...

Posizione piacevole, personale cordiale, cibo di ottima qualità.
