Luna Sentada

This was the very best meal we had in Venice.
The Sarda in Saor (Fresh Sardines cooked Venetian-​style with sweet onions) were magnificient, and the Beef Carpaccio was without question the best I’ve ever had.
My spinach pasta with really tasty shrimp popped off of the plate with incredibly fresh tomatoes and herbs that were not stewed our sauced but bright and beautiful. My wife had the monkfish which seemed poached and hacked into delightful bites served with a rich tomato sauce. Our dinner companions had the Venetian style calf’s liver which was rich and cooked gently, not like most places. It truly melted on your tongue.
The service was excellent, and the wine list was superlative. A good list of Sandinian wines, which I highly recommend; both red and white.
Get a reservation, it’s a small place, but really worth it. There is also a wine bar across the street owned by the same folks if you have to wait.
I would say run, don’t walk, but it’s Venice. Stroll briskly and stay as long as you can.

One month in Italy and we finally found the exceptional!!! Grazie Alfredo, magnifico!!! Most of the food we’ve encountered is under seasoned and pricey. Here you have a good chance to get a great meal.

Good food at quite reasonable prices. The Singapore spring roles were very good. My chicken curry was good. My wife’s pasta was good. The owner brought a bottle of grappa for us to taste at the end of the evening, no charge. Very nice. I’d come back.

This place is quite expensive (not unusual for venice) but it was absolutely amazing! My boyfriend and I shared a salad and the oyster pasta, both were extremely delicious. This restaurant was exactly what we needed in the flurries of classic pizza and pasta menus because it was so unique. The only thing that I was not sold on was the wait staff who I felt was slightly curt. Overall I would recommend this place for a romantic and inventive dinner for your night in Venice!

Let’s not hold back the 5^th star here. Wow. This is the kind of food my mother… Nevermind. No one I know can do food as it’s done here.
When in Venice, try to find this. I needed the Unilocal app to navigate Castelli. You’ll find it.
Eventually.

Great spot for lunch. Linguine with clamps (sic! Should read clams) was perfect. Pasta a little al dente & flavoursome. Didn’t get the Asian connection and a few odd combinations (Chinese ravioli!), but would recommend if you’re looking something away from the main tourist traps

Inventive.
Ermanno Sguoto told that he took the flavors which he experienced in places like Vietnam and Singapore and combined them with local ingredients much like Marco Polo did. The local seafood from the Venezia Lagoon cooked Vietnamese style in a pot was tasty with a mild spicy kick. My lamb was grilled just right. Quality of ingredients was excellent. Nice diversion from the ubiquitous pizza or pasta in 80% of the restaurants in Venice.
