BARBACANI

Tucked away in the medieval heart of Venice, still very close to San Marco, the Ristorante Ai Barbacani is situated off a quiet alleyway in a breathtaking 700 year old building. It’s been a vibrant boutique eatery for more than 60 years, serving traditional venetian dishes in an atmospheric setting.

The Restaurant was an ancient coal storage. Its wooden beams still bear the traces of its former use and give it a magical and romantic atmosphere, ideal for dining by candlelight, with boats passing along the canal in the background, away from the more beaten tourist tracks.

The cuisine is traditional Veneto style and mostly fish-based but there are a number of other choices for non-fish eaters and vegetarians menus.

Enjoy an aperitif of Prosecco at your arrival.
