 | Venice San Trovaso Reviews | Tips 1 - 9 of 9 |  |
This Taverna is so popular with tasty italain food, good quality and good value that we ate here 3 times on our latest visit to Venice. If you go later than half past seven you really should book - especially at the weekend - we saw several disappointed people being turned away as they were full. I especially enjoyed the lasagne for staters, the salmon steak with buttered spinach and tiramisu to finish with.
Good choice of pastas and fish - the set menu (normally which we avoid) tempted us and we were not disappointed. 18 euros for a 3 course meal - all delicious and generous portions.I especially enjoyed the lasagne for staters, the salmon steak with buttered spinach and tiramisu to finish with.

Moderately priced (under €15) restaurant is a "can't miss" choice. The tavern of San Trovaso is one of the most popular establishments in Venice. You’ll be able to tell by all of the young locals and visitors alike crowding here (the tavern is always packed, but table turnover is fast).
Two steps from the Campo San Trovaso with its famous church and the gondola yard, and 5 min. walk from the Gallerie dell'Accademia, this is a good place to slip into while sightseeing in Dorsoduro, or for an early evening aperitif and some cicheti.
Closed Monday.
You can sample here an authentic Venetian pesce (fish) dish. A wide choice of Venetian dishes served in robust portions, economical prix-fixe menus at both lunch and dinner, pizzas, and house wine by the glass or pitcher keep this two-floor tavern busy.

I ate at San Travaso several times, including once with a group of 17 friends. The food was consistently good, portions were large and service was interesting. It seemed that everytime I was there, there was at least one large group. Each time, watching the waiters serve the food was like having live entertainment. The waiters would come out with plates of food and start handing out plates. But, it would quickly become apparant that they were giving people the wrong orders. So, they'd start calling out, trying to find out who each plate belonged to. Usually, the diners were busy drinking wine and talking and ignored the waiters. One waiter just yelled out an order, then gazed at the ceiling, while the diners waved their hands to get his attention. He kept his eyes rolled toward the ceiling until everyone started yelling at him. After all 20 or so people were served this way, the entire restaurant burst into applause and laughter. Try the Caprese salad - huge, with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and olives. The mussels were wonderful, as was the fettucine alfredo. The steaks were also excellent. The house wine was decent, and a bargain, by Venetian standards.

Turn left at the first "road". You'll come to a "t" - turn left and walk straight - you'll run into the restaurant.

For 18.00 Euro each we got a huge 3 course lunch (including service charges). The food was basic and we were so full we couldn't eat dinner that night, so it was a saving.
We actually wanted to go to Trattoria Pizzeria San Toma (Campo San Toma), which had an even better Menu Turistico and better reviews, but it was closed.

I had read numerous reports on this restaurant. We arrived there around lunchtime on the Sunday to book for the evening. It was "buzzing". We returned at 7.00pm to eat and were not disappointed. The menu is extensive. The service was excellent and the food very good indeed. I would have no hesitation in returning.
We ate there only once - on our last night. I would definitely return. Leave a Comment Theme: ItalianPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Calle San Trovaso - close to Accademia BridgeDirections: Dorsoduro Sestiere - 1 minute walk from the Accademia Bridge

Good service, Good food, Good prices...casual atmosphere. It fills up quickly for dinner...so get there at or before 7pm, when they open for dinner, to avoid a wait.
I had one of their many varieties of spaghetti and a delicious pepperoni pizza. Both were excellent and fairly priced...which is rare for the tourist trap of Venice! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Fondamenta Nani, Dorsduro, 1016 Near vaporetto Accademia...Other Contact: 041 520 37 03

We were going to eat at the pizza place of the same name, owned by the same people, but it wasn't open. So we walked around the corner and found this place! As Venice was very hot this day, the air conditioning was a welcome feeling! I made the mistake of getting the tourist menu. It was hit or miss. Some courses were good, others were so-so. Overall, it was a ummmm...., good enough experience, but I wouldn't go out of my way to find this place on a return trip.
The pasta course was lasagna. The sauce was quite spicy and I would have gladly eaten another dish of this over the meat course. (the chicken was dry) Leave a Comment Theme: ItalianPrice: US$21-30 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averagePhone: 041.523.08.35Directions: Fondamenta Nani, Dorsduro, 1016 Near vaporetto Accademia...

Always a crowd.....best to make a reservation ahead by a day or two.....comfortable surroundings....lots of fish choices....we only ate there once because we had an apartment so we cooked at home a lot. I love the grocery stores in Europe. The owner of our apartment told us of this restaurant. Theme: DinerPrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: On Fun.
