Ai Santi - Dorsuduro Venezia Italia

Very nice bar that we discovered when visiting the area around our hotel in the late evening for an aperitif and where we had a great time! Very good Aperol Spritz, with the olive directly in the Martini style glass I hadn't seen it yet, but I must say that it works very well and the drink is really super pleasant, well balanced and fresh. There are many different cicchetti and meatballs available, super seasoned and served nice and hot: we tried the one with creamed cod and it was truly phenomenal in taste and consistency. The place itself is small and with few seats but nothing gives it that convivial and friendly atmosphere where you really enjoy stopping by! Plus, we ended up by chance at a birthday party organized in the venue and this helped make everything even more fun and convivial! I would say the quality/price ratio is honest, very fair for both the cicchetti and the drinks and the service is impeccable, very kind, very nice and fast!

Classic Italian bar with food. We were the only foreigners, but that didn't matter at all and we were happy. The panini was absolutely fabulous and fresh. The lady who served us was nice and helpful. I'll definitely stop by again when I'm passing by, if only for a good Aperol spritz. Price per person: €10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Discovered by chance, we went there 3 times in the space of 2 days. Spectacular sympathy and kindness of the owners, brother and sister. Excellent quality of cicchetti. Wide choice of sandwiches with freshly cut dalumi/cold cuts: raw ham, mortadella, loin, soppressa, fennel, peppered bacon, grilled ham to name those tasted. The croutons are also very good. Apart from the classics of Venetian cuisine with cod and sardines etc. , other very particular ones created by the chef with taleggio cheese and pumpkin, grilled meat and artichokes, nduja loin and dried tomatoes...(but these vary every day). Furthermore, excellent wine (at least the refosco we drank). In short, highly recommended, certainly not a simple bar, but a truly welcoming place to relax pampered by the owners who are very attentive to all customers.
