What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Osteria Enoteca Ai Artisti is a highly-rated, intimate Venetian gem praised for its exceptional homemade pasta and perfectly cooked fresh fish. While the cozy, romantic atmosphere and attentive service are consistent highlights, some diners found certain dishes to be a bit bland or overpriced, with occasional slower service compared to other tables.
"Lovely find! The food was exquisite. I had a unique curry pasta that was amazing. Pasta was home made. My wife had the spaghetti with white fish. It was all delicious."

"The dishes are very good and staffs are polite. A bit pricey for the fish of the day … This is not tasty but the plating is good. Raw fish is fresh, pasta is very good.
And we got the service was slower than other table. Not sure why but we were the last one of the first round get the last plate (they keep serving dessert, and serve other customer arrived after us) and checked out."

"A Hidden Gem in Venice! Where to begin…this intimate restaurant (just 10 tables!) was the highlight of our trip to Venice. A reservation is a must, and absolutely worth it. The service was exceptional: warm, attentive, and detail-oriented. We shared the beef tartare, ricotta ravioli, and the catch of the day—each dish was delicious, with the fish being the standout. Don’t skip dessert: the tiramisu was the best we had in Italy, and the wild strawberry sorbet was perfectly refreshing. Reasonably priced for such a high-quality experience. 100% recommend!"
