It has been updated and looks more modern but doesn't feel jarringy out of place in this busy part of Vanice, bustling with tourists, a gondola stop right outside and St Mark's Square not all that far away. We only went for breakfast/coffee twice it was just my wife and I and twice we went with our daughters. There is a good selection of pastries, brunch food such as sandwiches or omlettes and the coffee is superb. Service is quick and friendly and it is obviously a popular place.

We waited for the menu for about 20 minutes. Then 10 minutes until someone serves us.

A waiter dropped a cup behind the counter (things that happen and we laugh about to make things easier) and he turned white as if he had done who knows what. I tried to make a joke to lighten the situation but the owners didn't understand the attempt to downplay a simple incident. Then a customer's request for a coffee after 12.00 was answered in an arrogant manner and with an attitude of contempt because after 12.00 they don't make coffee. I still have this gentleman's expression in my eyes. I don't know how they move forward with this approach. And to say that the place would be beautiful.

Our daughter was not well (we suspect food poisoning from the hotel breakfast , and our server thoughtfully asked if she was OK when she didn’t order any food. We explained she wasn’t well and he offered more water. Then, when I let him know she would be in the toilet for a while (and BTW nicest bathrooms we experienced in all of Venice! he offered the table closest to the bathroom for me to sit wait for her, which was a godsend with the great AC inside! I am so grateful to our server and his kindness in our time of need.
