This restaurant has a convenient location in between Campo San Polo and the Frari, and at the same time is not touristy at all. When we were there for lunch, we were the only English speakers (including the staff, for the most part). The restaurant is quaint, small, and quiet, with bright sunny yellow walls and fresh flowers on the tables. Unfortunately, our waiter was having a bad day and was not very nice. He had the meanest look on his face! The service was typically slow (they really like you to take your time in Italy!), but the food was very good. My husband and I split the pasta with crab for two, which was creamy and delicious. My mother had a very good salad and soup. The crème caramel dessert was also excellent, definitely try it.

There were a couple of small drawbacks here. The first was that there was a small bug in the water for my tea, which I discovered after drinking two cups. Second, the bathrooms at first appeared to be clean. But with a closer look, it was obvious that they were not maintained very well. I could see that in the crowded summer season they could get really bad. Still, the appeal of this place is its quaint size, filling and yummy food, and Italian atmosphere. I would go there again.
