I Tre Mercanti

Sooooo good! My sweet tooth kicked in one mid-​afternoon and I just had to find something to satisfy it. I remember passing by this place when I was walking to Dal Moro’s for lunch, so we decided to give it a shot. I liked that they had the kitchen facing the window, it was pretty cool watching them prepare the tiramisu.
I ordered the traditional tiramisu and my boyfriend got macarons. I can’t remember all the flavors, but the one I liked best was rose. It had a very unique taste to it. The tiramisu was really good. I don’t think it deserved five stars, but definitely a solid 4 — 4.5 stars. It was fresh, moist, but not too wet and the ladyfingers were perfect. I had to slow down so I could enjoy every single bite.
Overall, great place to grab something sweet. Tiramisu is a must try for sure!

This place is what dreams are made of. It has an elegant feel to it when you walk in the store. They have an assortment of different maroons and tiramisu. I ordered the pistachio tiramisu and it was one of the best dessert I have had in my life. It had small chucks of cookies which I believe were soaked in coffee based on the taste. It was out of this world and didn’t feel heavy either. So good! If you are in Venice and miss this place you will regret it all your life.

Try this place! Try the pistachio and the regular tiramisu. You can thank me later.

Best tiramisu. € 3.9 each AHmazing! They don’t sell coffee which is my only complaint. You can watch them making the tiramisu. There is a wide assortment of wine and chilled drinks.

When you visit Venezia (Venice), it is extremely important to visit this amazing dessert shoppe for a decedent variety of the best TIRAMISU, macaroons and wine.

I don’t know if it was the atmosphere, but the tiramisu here was just okay. When my friends and I found the shop, they had the baker making a bunch of the tiramisu in this glass room for tourists to see how it’s made. When I went into the shop, the place was pretty dead quiet. I would expect a more lively vibe for a dessert shop. I ordered just a regular tiramisu and I hate to say it, but I’ve had better. The tiramisu was good, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best like everyone else is raving. Maybe it was just the vibe of the place when I was there, but it just didn’t taste all that amazing as I imagined and heard.

Hands down best tiramisu I’ve ever had! We tried:
Pistachio — This was the group favorite. It was not too sweet, and the pistachio crumble at the top adds great texture to the perfectly silky treat. Awesome flavor. highly recommend.
Original — Classic. Well executed. Flavor was balanced — neither too alcoholic, too bitter, or too sweet. Also recommend.
Nutella — If you are a hazelnut chocolate fan, and love sweet desserts, this one’s for you! It has all the elements the other flavors have, but it was too sweet for me. My friends liked it though.
Melon — Refreshing, and different. Still a little sweet for my taste. Try it if you have extra time or tummy space.
Limoncello — Very alcoholic to the point of almost being inedible. We expected lemon-​y fresh cocktail, but the flavor was more like cheap vodka. Do not recommend.
We went back twice and they were sold out of Amaretto each time. We hear it’s the best and most popular. So, try it if you have the chance :)
They have super friendly service, and it’s fun to watch them make the tiramisu. Stop by if you have a chance!

Worst customer service ever. Accidentally knocked over a glass bottle which I offered to pay for right away after apologizing countless times. The owner of the store ran over and started screaming despite my trying to appease the situation. Accidents happen, you can’t treat customers like that. He also started complaining about us to other customers in the store, blatantly in front of us.

We were hoping for the Pistachio flavor but they had already sold out… so we opted for the regular… Which was pretty good, I think I was expecting a little better due to the reviews but it was just ok, don’t get me wrong it was the perfect amount of every ingredient and if you never had a good tiramisu its worth a trip to try… we grouped this with a visit to Dal Moro’s since they are just around the corner. Not sure I would seek this out if I wasn’t in the area since almost everyone does tiramisu in Venice. I probably still would stop by to try the new flavors since some of the other flavors seem to be what draws people. We had an ok visit, again hoping for more. We did have excellent customer service from this shop and enjoyed chatting with the server.

Wonderful costumer service and best tiramisu I had in venice!! they had pistaschio, regular, nutella, and I may be missing one. It was really cool watching them make it too! My advice is to get multiple and then take a gondola ride, which you can catch right outside their shop.
They also have other yummy looking things in the shop, so someday I’ll be back to try everything!

Muy rico tiramisú! Realmente nos gustó mucho. Lo compramos y lo comimos en el camino. No puedo decir que es el mejor porque fue el único que probamos en Venecia, pero seguro que sí está entre los mejores. Un postre bárbaro para después de la pasta de Dal Moro’s que está muy cerquita!

Cute little shop in Venice! They sell very authentic tiramisu. It was so nice to see a chef making tiramisu… I could see his passion and pride. The tiramisu was not too sweet and very light. They also sell wine, liquors, Italian herbs etc… great for souvenirs. Customer service was excellent as well. Too bad they don’t make coffee and tea in-​house for some reason and there are no chairs. A must visit in Venice :)

The tiramisu I ate here was the single best thing I ate in Italy. And I’m not a dessert guy.
I tried the banana (a must) and then, when we returned, the apple cinnamon, a new flavor that the owner is trying out. Afterwards, the owner came out and asked our opinion of the flavor, told us all about how he makes the tiramisu.
In Venice, it is easy to get lost in the touristy spots. This is a true find. I recommend that anyone going to Venice try it.

This place is sitting at a corner next a a bridge with a glass window that allows you to see into the tiramisu station — — this is where the magic happens. A worker stands there all day, and creates art. You can see him brew the espresso for the lady fingers, soak them, etc. After walking by a few times, my girlfriend and I had to stop in — — he had us mesmerized.
At 3.50 or 4.50 (depending on the flavor), this is a steal because (coming from a non-​dessert lover), this had to be the best tiramisu I had ever tasted. It was not too sweet with a strong coffee taste. The cake was very spongy and wet, moreso than usual, but I actually preferred this.
Over the course of 3 days, we went twice and wanted to go back for more during our entire stay. Do yourself a favor and hit up this spot!

BEST TIRAMISU IN THE WORLD!
Welll. I haven’t been to every restaurant in the world so this is hard to justify but this place was DAMN good. This is a small marketplace in Venice that sells wines, pastas, sauces, etc. but right outside the store, there is a glass window with someone always there making the tiramisu! It is really easy to attract customers because you literally get to watch the guy make all the tiramisu. I had it twice during my 3 days in Venice and I kept wanting to go back for more. I felt like I needed to eat one every hour. Yup. That’s how good these things were!!!
It is really hard for me to describe how the tiramisu tastes like, but I really liked it because it wasn’t overwhemingly sweet. Also, the lady fingers had the perfect espresso taste. YUM.
Honestly, this was probably one of my most favorite place in all of Italy. The tiramisu is only 3.50 euro.

Desserts are perfection! It was so good we went back twice on the same day. First we had the Tiramisu (all others will be compared to this from now on) and we loved it so much we picked up pistachio and matcha green tea. Place is lovely and ppl working there are wonderful! A must stop when in Venezia.

Freshly made every day, I’m definitely glad I picked this spot to get my tiramissu fix in Italy
Try their pistachio tiramisu! You won’t regret it!

I love the fact that they make the tiramisu right in front of you so you know its made fresh. It’s very tasty and creamy and quite filling. We got the lemonchello and original and both were very good. This place also has wine and you can purchase pasta and oils but they don’t have coffee which was odd.

Hands down the best tiramisu in town. For € 3.50 you can have 2 or 3 easily lol! Glad we stumble this little gem in Venice.

Classy looking bakery with different types of desserts, chocolates, cookbooks, cooking oils, etc. There are three standing tables for you to enjoy your desserts on. The pistachio tiramisu is beyond amazing. The way the flavors just blend together is amazing – indescribable with words. Experience it for yourself. And of course, the classic tiramisu, you can’t go wrong with. Delicious.
This place is a must go in Venice, Italy. I am now thoroughly spoiled and will have a hard time trying to find tiramisu that can live up to this standard.

Things happen to all, by chance!!!
I got wet in the rain and snow. So was about to head back to the hostel after being out all day. Then I remembered that I had not yet visited the famous Ponte di Rialto (Rialto Bridge). I said to myself, «Just walk there quickly, take a few photos and leave, pronto!».
I stumbled across I Tre Mercanti after crossing a bridge. I stopped and thought I must have tiramisu when in Venice! Earlier in the day my friend texted me to say «Remember to try the tiramisu!».
Personally I like to eat tiramisu so when I saw Nicholas Tse and Karena Lam’s film Tiramisu ages ago, I thought it brought much more meaning to the dessert. The taste of tiramisu is like falling in love (again)…
I ordered the classic tiramisu for € 3.50. Most tables were taken, there were no seats. People just stood there, happily eating their tiramisus. There was a Korean girl at one of the tables. I went there and asked if I could share the table.
Then we asked each other to take photos of us eating our tiramisus. She asked me if I knew the way to Ponte di Rialto. I said no, but I was going there too. We asked the staff the directions to the bridge. Off we went!
We clicked immediately and had so much to talk about. We ended up having dinner together that evening and meeting up again in Florence within the next couple of days. (Florence reviews coming up next!)
I found a good travel buddy in a tiramisu shop! How awesome is that?
We are now friends and still keep in touch constantly.
