Da Aciugheta

Frommer's Review

A long block north of the chic Riva degli Schiavoni hotels lies one of Venice's best wine bars, expanded to include an elbow-to-elbow trattoria/pizzeria in back. Its name refers to the marinated anchovies that join other cicchetti lining the popular front bar of this friendly bacaro, where you can enjoy an excellent selection of Veneto and Italian wines by the glass. Staff is relaxed about those not ordering full multicourse meals -- a pasta and glass of wine or pizza and beer will do just fine. There's an unusually long list of half-bottles of wine, and an even more unusual nonsmoking room. Tables move out onto the small piazza when the warm weather moves in.
