Osteria Al Cicheto

Venice


This wine bar boasts a small but impressive restaurant, but the focus is very much on all things oenological. It hosts regular wine-tasting evenings, as well as food nights focusing on a single ingredient (pumpkin, for example). No matter when you go, there are always interesting cicheti (Venetian tapas) and a fine assortment of wines by the glass.
