Me and my girlfriend just visited Osteria Antico Gairdinetto (aka OAG) this past week. We had read several reviews about this place and decided to have at least one dinner there during our week long stay in Venice. We did a recon of the place during the day to make sure we could find this tucked away gem in the... more

We chose this restaurant based on TripAdvisor's ratings and it did not disappoint. One word of warning - the restaurant is very difficult to find, especially at night in the rain!! But eventually we found it and it was worth the trek. Larissa was a great hostess. All we ordered was seafood - mussels for appetizer, seafood risotto for entree... more

My husband (Australian) and I (Irish) ate in the restaurant on Friday evening 6th November. I looked up what restaurants to go to in Venice via Tripadvisor and as usual Tripadvisor didn't disappoint. We found it very hard to find the restaurant so be careful to work out your route exactly via map before you leave your hotel. It is... more

Not easy to find but worth the trouble. We were warmly welcomed by Larissa (she and her husband, the chef, own the business) and treated to sparkling wine as it was a celebration dinner. The osteria is a traditionally decorated restaurant. The food was excellent and very good value for money. If you're looking for fast food this isn't the... more

We were very glad we did a “recce” in daylight to find this small, well-run restaurant before going there on a dark, wet evening – not easy to find, but well worth the trouble. Excellent, simple food, good service from the very pleasant owner and reasonable prices – what more could you ask? more

I have been eating in this wonderful restaurant for some years now, and it is excellent. Their Tuscan Roast Lamb is out of this world. All their dishes are freshly made to order. Larisa and Virgilio always give a warm welcome, and they deserve to be No:1 on Trip Advisor. I was hoping to keep this restaurant to myself! For... more

I really enjoyed the food and the service at this restaurant - certainly the best we had during our stay in Venice. But the whole thing was a little odd to start with and took a little while to warm up. There were only about 8-10 tables split across two rooms and everyone eating there appeared to have pre-booked (we... more
