delightful little restaurant just off the Corso Palladio in Vicenza, down Contra S Gaetano Thiene, not many seats, wonderful varied menu which the owner is quite happy to discuss and explain. Highly recommended.

has a wonderful enticing position overlooking the Piazza dei Signori in Vicenza but not recommended - am not one to complain easily but service was slow and I sent the main course back twice, by then it was just inedible.

One of my top three restaurants in Venice . Highly thought of by venetians . A busy restaurant in a little calle by the Rialto bridge . Very popular with locals and tourists alike . No bookings taken so it's advisable to be there close to opening at 7pm . The staff are friendly and chatty , service efficient and the food excellent - the whole array of venetian classic dishes . Handily close to the ancient Cantina Do Mori where you can have a nice glass of wine as an aperitivo prior to your meal . Superb restaurant . Highly recommended .

This is , for me , one of the top three restaurants in Venice , along with Vini da Gigio and Alla Madonna . [Why are'nt they in DK's top ten I wonder] ? Anice Stellato is in northern Cannaregio and so does'nt see many tourists . Despite this , it is so popular with locals that , like Vini da Gigio , you have to book well in advance . I actually telephoned from Scotland ten days before and I'm glad that I did as on the night the staff turned away a number of people who had turned up on the off chance of getting a table .Sevice was friendly and brisk . Again , trying to speak a little Italian certainly helps . The food was excellent , the first course of prawns in a basil sauce was to die for . I will definitely be returning on my next visit . Highly recommended .

Far more than a Pizzeria. A treat to find. a few outside tables. Good service. Good value. 10 minutes from Rialto and st Marks but a million miles from the so called fashionable restaurants. Once we found it we did not find anything better

Superb restaurant just off the Strada Nova , along Fondamenta San Felice , run by the friendly Paolo Lazzari and his sister . Very popular with Venetians , very busy so booking essential . The food is amazing , lots of tasty venetian seafood . Service is friendly and efficient . A definite "must " if you are visiting Venice for a couple of days .
