OSTERIA AI ASSASSINI

San Marco, Venice, Italy

Restaurant | €€ | Italian

The name refers to the assassins said to have lurked in the nearby calle in past centuries, but the only thing dangerous here is how easy it is to love it. A classic Venetian osteria with an excellent small menu, a good wine list, and a warm atmosphere with vinyl playing in the background. The pasta alle acciughe e burro was one of the best things we ate in Venice. The osteria has been in the same family for decades, which explains why it feels so consistent and why the service is so kind.
