The renowned Ristorante Da Fiore is a family-run venue in Venice, located near San Polo Square, a few steps from Rialto Bridge. Once an old Venetian tavern it now has an elegant and refined décor, tables are well-laid with silvery cutlery and fine porcelain modern dinnerware.

The kitchen offers a virtuoso of flavours with re-invented traditional Italian dishes, presented with culinary expertise and flair. Some of the more popular signature dishes that delight diners are the seabass in balsamic vinegar and the the tunny-fish flavoured with rosemary and the typical Venetian dish of risotto and molecche.
