I guess since it is nearby Marco Polo a lot of travelers stay here for the night before flying in or out of Venice. They're food selection was good. Seafood seems to be their specialty (which makes total sense since it's by the water). They have a full bar serving apertifs, wine, beer or cocktails. We started out with seafood platter for appetizers which includes jumbo shrimps, scallops, mussels, local fish and polenta. It all tastes fresh and delish! Aside from the seafood platter, we also ordered the stuffed olives. The stuffed olives were fried and already pitted so you don't have to worry about biting into the seed. It includes some kind of meat and olives fried in a batter. Main course we shared risotto and mixto salad which is enough for 2-4 persons. Their servings are quite big compared to other places we've gone in Italy. This place serves great seafood! A must try when you're in Tessera. The risotto was creamy and cooked perfectly! It didn't have a strong seafood taste to it but it was seasoned right and comforting. The salad included fresh mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, mixed lettuce and corn.

We had a mezzo liter (half liter) of Prosecco for next to nothing! Very nice restaurant that was reasonable. My fellow travelers had pizzas. Nice new decor too.

The pizza is thin, the crust is crunchy and you don't feel bloated after you eat it. Apart from the pizza, other items on the menu are exquisite and very creative. We enjoyed the calamari and the steak. And the staff and the owners are very nice people, always happy to help and accommodate you. I heartily recommend this beautiful restaurant!
