The best restaurants Lido Di Venezia

Located on the first floor of an elegant villa with a facade featuring pretty stone balconies, this discreet restaurant offers a menu of typical lagoon cuisine. Inside, there are two pleasant dining rooms, brightened by beautiful Murano glass, and, in summer, an intimate vine-covered terrace. The cuisine of the sea takes pride of place: cod with polenta, crab, cuttlefish... but also pasta dishes and fish (bass, sea bream, sole). Attentive service. Overcrowded in high season, reservations are highly recommended. A good Lido restaurant.

Behind the Excelsior Hotel, a few steps from the Festival Palace and the Casino, Tavernetta offers refined cuisine featuring dishes from Venetian and Tuscan cuisine. On the menu, however, pasta, meat and fish take the lion's share. Riccardo and his wife Adrianna have passed on their taste for good things to their son Ottavio, who has become a sommelier. Nice selection of bottles, to be tasted with patience. It is also possible to come here for a simple drink, as the restaurant also serves as a bar.

The ultimate in luxury... The latest addition to the 5* Excelsior hotel. On a terrace open to the sky and the sea, this Mecca of Venetian and Mediterranean gastronomy offers you a gentle journey between the flavours of the land and the sea. Selection of very good exceptional wines. A lunch or dinner at a certain price, but an idyllic setting for a moment to be enjoyed between lovers. Open your eyes, there's a strong chance of running into people!

A double change of scenery in this agriturismo, because not only is it located on an island in the lagoon, but it is also in the middle of the countryside! In fact, this bucolic restaurant with a romantic soul is located in the southern part of the Lido, surrounded by cultivated land. At the table, you will find vegetables from the orchard and fruit from the day's catch, from the antipasto of the sea to the artichoke salad, including grilled sea bass and sea bream. To finish the meal, an ice cream or a pie and a coffee? The Garzette also has a few rooms.

An unbelievable small kiosk located in an enchanting and wild place, made of dunes and shrubs, at the end of the beach and at the beginning of the great dam of Alberoni. The colors of the totems and sculptures of the artists who passed there blend with the color of the passion of tables and chairs. We eat well (pilaf rice in saffron, paella, peooes, pasta alla busara, vegetarian dishes…), and the parties that are very regularly organized are unforgettable.

Masterfully orchestrated by the Scarso family since 1929, this inn-restaurant is a local institution. Much appreciated by the Venetians, Scarso's illustrious clients have included Hugo Pratt and Federico Fellini. Lovers of the Italian way of life will surely have appreciated the traditional Venetian dishes (Venetian cod, seafood risotto, antipasto of the sea and grilled fish) as well as the pleasant pergola that covers the terrace in summer. This is the kind of authentic address where it is always a pleasure to return...

Nice coffee-restaurant-pizzeria in front of the Lido landing. In the summer, you can relax on the terrace while contemplating the lagoon while enjoying traditional family cuisine based on fresh meat and vegetables. The well-stocked pizze finds competitive prices, far from the excesses of the pizzeries of Saint-Marc. In the morning, the rooms are located in the bar, to order a very tight espresso, to start their day! Quick and efficient service.

El Pecador prepares sandwiches, nachos and burgers of all kinds, with fresh ingredients, for omnivores and vegetarians alike. An unusual sight in the Lido landscape, it's a converted old English bus, with the kitchen and bar downstairs, and a small guinguette-style dining room upstairs, with a few tables and chairs, quickly snapped up at hungry times. It's all in a relaxed atmosphere, with blaring "zik". The kids love it. The food-truck takes place every April opposite the Lido beach.

Among the many restaurants on the Lido's most touristic avenue, this little bistro deserves a special mention. Gera Ora brilliantly stands out from the crowd. Flavors, cooking and presentation are all perfectly mastered. The classics of Italian cuisine are revisited with talent and simplicity. The Sicilian linguine is divine. The menu is limited, the better to enjoy ultra-fresh produce. The chef delivers. So does the service. And when it's time for dessert, your taste buds are dancing! You'll leave with a smile on your face.
