Frommer's Review
Venetians bring their visiting friends here to make a bella figura (good impression) without breaking the bank, then swear them to secrecy. Rarely will you find as pleasant a setting and appetizing a meal as in this small, casually elegant trattoria with reasonably priced fresh-fish dining -- and plenty to keep meat eaters happy as well. The spaghetti O.P.A. (with parsley, peperoncino, garlic, and olive oil) is excellent, and the spaghetti al pesto is the best this side of Liguria. Follow it up with the traditional bisato in umido con polenta (braised eel). This and Trattoria da Fiore (above) are the most reasonable choices for an authentic Venetian dinner of fresh fish; careful ordering needn't mean much of a splurge either -- though inexplicably, prices have risen dramatically in the past 2 years.
