If you find yourself wandering through the enchanting canals of Venice, make sure to add Ristorante Osteria alle Bottega to your must-visit list. Nestled in the heart of this historic city, this restaurant embodies the true essence of Italian cuisine with a special focus on local flavors and seasonal ingredients.

The menu at Osteria alle Bottega features a delightful array of traditional Venetian dishes that are bound to tantalize your taste buds. One standout dish is the Sarde in Saor, a crispy and savory sardine preparation that will transport you straight to the Adriatic Sea with each bite. The Baccalà Mantecato, creamy whipped cod, offers a rich contrast that’s both comforting and decadent. And let's not forget the homemade gnocchi ai pesto that melts in your mouth, or the succulent grilled fish—the daily specials change, but they’re always worth exploring.

The dining atmosphere is equally inviting. Picture yourself seated on a cozy outdoor terrace, where the charm of Venice surrounds you. With only six tables, it’s an intimate setting that fosters a warm, friendly ambiance perfect for savoring a leisurely meal. Even better, the staff goes above and beyond to make your dining experience memorable. Customers rave about the attentive service from Emanuel and Kumara, who not only provide expert wine recommendations but also share valuable local insights.

Customer Susan Cross couldn’t have been happier with her experience, praising the delicious food and exemplary service: “We had such a great night on our first visit, that we returned for a second night. Highly recommend!” Her sentiments are echoed by others who have enjoyed the welcoming vibe and fantastic culinary offerings.

The affordability of the menu is another cherry on top, as Dorcas Makinson notes in her review, “the prices are much more reasonable than in the more well [known restaurants].” Enjoy incredible house white wine without breaking the bank, all while indulging in dishes that showcase the best of Venice’s culinary heritage.

Overall, Ristorante Osteria alle Bottega is more than a meal; it's a holistic experience in Venetian gastronomy that emphasizes quality, warmth, and authenticity. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this hidden gem is sure to create lasting memories through its mouthwatering dishes and heartfelt service.

We had such a great night on our first visit, that we returned for a second night. The food was delicious, and I cannot fault the service - absolutely amazing! Not only great food service, but very good wine recommendations, and also very helpful local knowledge from Emanuel and Kumara. I'm travelling with a gluten free friend and they were very helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend!

After reading some of the reviews here, I wonder if I’ve even been to the same restaurant. The waiters were charming and couldn’t do enough for us. The food was amazing, in particular the sardines ( Sarde in saor), and whipped cod ( Baccalà mantecato)The house white wine was absolutely delicious. Everything about the evening was faultless. The prices are much more reasonable than in the more well known areas. Highly recommend

Excellent!! I had a gnocchi ai pesto, my son had an incredible salmon and we all had a appetizer of prosciutto crudo. Of course with a nice Aperol Spritz

We had a really nice dinner. The service was very good and friendly. We ordered a grilled fish (dorade) and pizza of the house, which were both excellent. Other guests joined us on the cosy (6 tables) outdoor terrace and made it an unforgettable experience.

We came to this restaurant twice while staying in Venice. Manuel was the best host to us, recommending wonderful wines and dishes. The grilled fish special was our favorite. You will not be disappointed.

Delicious pizza, pasta and vegetable soups paired with great house red wine. A half liter caraff is perfect for lunch. Avoid the crowds and enjoy this neighborhood gem.
