I rarely write reviews but I was so impressed with our meals at this restaurant that I wanted to come on here and write it up. I have never tasted such a good Lasagne. All the side dishes were outstanding too. Luca looked after us...beautifully including coping with our crazy 4 year old boy! Andrea was the chef. We had been recommended somewhere else but I am so glad they were fully booked and we ended up here!More

Quick visit to Burano coinciding with lunch so we chose this restaurant and glad we did. Located on a corner there was a welcome breeze. Service was excellent. Mainly fish and seafood based with excellent crispy calamari and my husband had the beef braseola all...washed down with a very welcome couple of ice cold beers.More

Do not bother! There’s so many other places to choose from on Burano. Do yourself a favor & move on. Older waiter was extremely rude, the more junior staff was fine. Passable food. Greasy though & not the quality I would expect with a 4...star review by a mile!More

We had lunch at this Trattoria today and while the food was average, things quickly went downhill when their credit card system became unavailable upon the completion of our meal. The waiter claimed it was a internet outage and demanded we pay cash. Unfortunately, while...we did have some cash we did not have enough to cover the bill. A few things to mention, in front of restaurant there is NO sign that says cash only. Additionally, right on their front door they have stickers stating they accept Visa etc. There were 2-3 waiters that got downright confrontational with us when we told them we could only pay with credit card. To the point that they were yelling and saying we need to travel with cash. We offered to leave our credit card number for them to run when things came back online but they said that was not possible. They demanded we go across the street to the bank and withdraw cash. Unfortunately we only had credit cards and the ATM @Bank across square would not allow a cash advance on those. (Also spoke to banker inside who confirmed we couldn’t withdraw w/our cards.) During this whole fiasco one couple flat out left. They also didn’t have cash and they just walked on an unpaid bill. Other couples walked away once the waiter told them their credit card machine was down…miraculously the system started working after 10 mins and we paid. I’ll also add this whole incident became so intense and confrontational that it made my 10yr old son cry. He was super worried and scared. Back to the food. The basket of mixed fried fish was sorta gross. The fish was super small and filled mostly with bones. The rest was very oily. The Caprese salad was good. The drink service was also good. In closing, the worst offender at this restaurant was the elderly waiter. He really should not be interfacing with the public…especially when most of his clientele are tourists. After 3 weeks of travel all around Europe including lots of time in Naples/Sorrento/Florence/Venice this place has proven to be the worst. Stay away.More

We were visiting Burano and stopped for lunch. I had to call the waiter in order to be served. After lunch the old waiter came with the bill and threw it on the table. I can’t believe after all the suffering with the pandemic there...are businesses that deal with tourists this way in Italy.More

Trafalgar tours took us to this quaint restaurant on the Isle of Burano. We have been touring for 5 days all over Italy and found this to be the best restaurant we have encountered yet! The shrimp risotto was incredible, only to be outdone by...a wonderful fish lunch including shrimp, calamari, and a very flavorful fish for the main course. Fabio gave us such warm and personal welcome that we felt like special guests.More
