Riva - VENEZIA

Visited twice while in Venice. Food and service very good, but don 't get caught out being up-sold on the wine! Bottle we wanted out of stock so offered similar one €12 more! I refused it, then the service was absolutely fine! Food very good, although portions a little small.

We are so happy to have found this tiny (22 seater) gem in Canareggio only open for three weeks. Simple cool modern decor. Friendly, welcoming owner. We shared a starter of six fat juicy prawns on perfectly creamy polenta. Mains: mixed fried Adriatic seafood on grilled polenta and bigoli (pasta) in creamy anchovy and onion sauce. Both excellent. The pasta was difficult to photograph. The shared cannoli was a generous size set on fig preserve with a slice of preserved orange one of the best I’ve had. All washed down with an excellent glass of Robolla Gialla from Friuli. We’ll be back. With a bottle of sparkling water and two espressos, the bill came to €83. Cover charge €2.5 per person.

Nuovissimo locale a conduzione familiare. Attesa leggermente lunga ma gli spaghetti al sugo di tonno e gli gnocchetti al ragù di pesce sono incredibili. Ospitali e gentili. Consigliatissimo

Ottima cena, pesce fresco preparato con cura ed esperienza accompagnato da eccellente vino ... accoglienza e cortesia perfetta ... lo consigliamo decisamente ad amici e ci riproponiamo di tornarci presto ...

Posto molto bello e curato, i piatti sono tutti buonissimi e il personale molto gentile e simpatico. Da non perdere!
