Le Cementine - Quarto d'altino

My husband and I visited the Le Cementine after reading the Tim Robbins’ article in the FT Weekend. We contemplated arrival by boat, but in the end made the trip by car. Upon arrival we were immediately charmed by the late summer garden brimming with fruit and vegetables that would be the base of our meal. The garden was vast and green, but obviously a “working garden”, not just scenery. We had a lovely table under the pergola. Restaurant staff was warm, professional and competent, making us feel immediately at home and we’ll cared for. Lunch was delicious, with each dish really showcasing the bounty from the garden! We loved the fried squash blossoms, light and crispy! Another highlight were the paccheri with local langoustines, shrimp and squid with a surprising pistachio sauce topped with bottarga. The combination of sweet shellfish, creamy pistachio and salty bottarga was a perfectly executed surprise. Bravo! An amazing experience overall, reminded me, of La Chassagnette in Camargue for its garden setting and delicious food. I could definitely see having an intimate wedding anniversary party here…maybe with everyone arriving by boat!! Can’t wait to make the trip back!

We are a group of 6 friends boating on the Sile river and stopped off for lunch. How pleased we were! We had a 2 course lunch which we all agreed was delicious and the best we’d had on our holiday. The staff are very attentive and the restaurant is surrounded by gardens. Would have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

I took 4 colleagues to Le Cementine following a recommendation. Great choice. Fantastic surroundings, great ambience, great wine, even better food. The service was faultless! Thank you Le Cementine for a great experience!!!
