Slip into Al Covino, a quiet Venetian bistro where the owners greet you like family. Work through creative modern European plates, from perfectly cooked octopus to balanced desserts, in an intimate, candlelit-feeling room.

📖

Full description

Al Covino is a small, bistro-like restaurant where reviewers feel welcomed by the owners as though entering a family home. The cooking is creative and modern European, with set-menu options, and the octopus is singled out as spectacular, cooked to a perfect texture.

Desserts are described as well balanced, and several guests call it their best meal in Venice. The room is quaint and intimate, tucked away from the busiest streets, which suits couples and slow dinners.

With a 4.6 rating and mid-range pricing, it is good value for the ambition, but booking is recommended for lunch and dinner.

Reviews

Pulpo / octopus. The dish was spectacular. Cook to perfection, right consistency and flavor. One of the best if not the best I have tried. Food was very good. Desserts were well balanced of flavors. Great service, clean, friendly and nice decor. Small place by US standards, so make reservations!!!
