Welcome to La Serenissima. Our restaurant is nestled in Venice, just steps from the Rialto Bridge in the enchanting San Lio district.


Come visit us and discover an intimate, refined setting: every detail — from the exposed beams and rich dark wood to the soft lighting and deep red accents — is designed to give you a truly romantic and elegant evening you’ll never forget.


Why should you choose us?


Intimacy. La Serenissima is the perfect setting for a candlelit dinner, away from the city’s hustle yet conveniently close to Venice’s most beloved attractions.


Comfort. Comfort is born from the little details: an intimate, tranquil setting, soft lighting, enveloping seating, and discreet service that honors your evening. Away from the chaos, close to what truly matters: the pleasure of feeling completely at ease.


Venetian Flavors. Tradition comes to life on your plate. In a warm, intimate setting, savor the signature dishes of Venetian cuisine, crafted with top-quality ingredients. We’ll guide you through specialties like creamy baccalà mantecato, sweet-and-sour sardines (sarde in saor), squid-ink spaghetti, and a flavorful seafood risotto. Recipes that tell the story of the sea’s allure, the richness of history, and the comfort of home — for an authentic, unforgettable experience.


Our Wine Selection


To make your culinary experience even more complete, La Serenissima presents a carefully curated wine selection, with a special focus on Veneto’s finest.


You can choose from refined Valpolicella, intense Amarone, crisp Soave, and the lively bubbles of the very best Prosecco.


And for those seeking even bolder flavors, we also offer prestigious Supertuscan wines — perfect for elevating every dish with character and quality.
