Vini da Gigio Venezia Reviews from The Last Year
A long standing favourite.
We were in the area and were ready for lunch, what better place than the tried and trusted Vini da Gigio? All the usual attributes were in evidence. Warm welcome, excellent service, traditional menu and a truly excellent wine list. One of the special starters of the day was soft-shelled crabs, which were a must for two of our group. I always order this when available, as it is totally awesome but on this occasion I went with the grilled octopus (it seemed a bit over-the-top for three of the four to go with crab). The crab was excellent but sadly, the octopus less so. Grilled to be sure and lots of it but it would have benefitted from being removed from the grill a little sooner as it was way too charred (for my tastes). All the other fish and pasta main courses were good, as was my Venetian liver. Coffee and grappa finished the meal and service - as always - was great. Even if you exclude my āburntā octopus, the meal didnāt reach the extremely high standards we have experienced here in the past. Saying that, we still ate very well - but we have eaten better at this historic and well established restaurant. It did seem less crowded than usual. I would still recommend Vini da Gigio if you are looking for a true Venetian eating experience but you can get more innovative and exciting food elsewhere.
the MOECHE are VENICE
we are in Venice, time of the moeche, the crabs which in this period lose their armor and are soft, must be eaten fried and whole but must be very fresh. they recommended this restaurant to us as it often has them, we asked and we went there. excellent in taste. a nice, well-kept place with friendly and professional service. they should be tried once in your life, even if they are a little expensive
Tasty, but such impersonal service!
On our third day in Venice we chose this restaurant based on the good reviews it received. The food itself was not too bad, but unfortunately the quality of the food paled due to the terribly impersonal service of the waiter we had. The man in question barely said a word, treated us like tourist number 1001 and hardly a word of hospitality came from his mouth. The highlight even came when he came to clear the plates of the main course and did not ask at all if it had been tasty. He had almost left the table when he suddenly realized that as a matter of routine he should ask if he liked it. He also had no say in the choice of wine. He didn't say a word when I asked him if the wine chosen would go with the dishes. Seriously, that man shouldn't be working in a restaurant! As mentioned, the quality of the food was not too bad, although my wife was not very satisfied with the pasta with crab about the dryness of the pasta and the many remains of the crab shell that were in between. Despite the many good reviews, I would definitely not recommend this restaurant. We have found better hidden gems in Venice where people were much friendlier, the quality was better and the price was also cheaper,
Another return visit
No need to make a special trip, though worth it, as we were staying minutes from here. They did us our first evening meal in Venice and another later in our stay. The person serving us welcomed us back. The food and service were good as remembered. The food was well presented and you are always guaranteed well cooked and well presented food. Prices reflect the quality of the food and the service. Not somewhere to eat every night but starters around ā¬20 and mains around ā¬30 is more than reasonable. There are two sittings 1900 and 2130. Definitely book for earlier in the evening - it was full when we ate early on arrival and when we walked past. If you book and canāt make it or your plans change do let them know. Give someone else a chance the may not have had to eat there and support a local business.
Fish lunch with top marks!
Small place discovered by chance, but where I will gladly return. Small but well-kept place with a canal view. Varied and abundant fish starter, like the first courses, which left me and my friends more than satisfied! Even the desserts were above expectations! Friendly, helpful and very kind staff. Price proportionate to the offer. Highly recommended!

The perfect truly Venetian dinner
We chose this restaurant for our anniversary and never was a more appropriate choice! Very fresh fish, impeccable and extremely balanced traditional Venetian dishes. Although the place is not very large, we felt pampered without indiscretion and spent a very pleasant and romantic evening. We will be back for sure! The first courses, plentiful and well-designed, and the desserts, which are the perfect final treat to end such a dinner, are highly recommended.
Tradition!
We were craving a traditional place with traditional food and were very happy to have chosen Vini da Gigio. Great food, friendly service. Average price for Venice.
For many but not for everyone
So I'll start by saying that it's not a cheap place and it's within everyone's reach, especially if you're not a teetotaler. The restaurant is historic and you can see and hear it when you walk through the front door. The owners (I think father and son were present) do not exude sympathy from all their pores but I cannot say that I perceived any rudeness on their part. The wine and spirit list is important as is the cost to access it. The dishes indicated on the menu are verbally communicated to other dishes of the day with their often more expensive prices. For what we ate I cannot say that I found an adequate quality/price ratio, especially regarding the starter. The first ones are good but not enough to leave you with an indelible memory. I can't say I'll go back next time.
Third time and still good
This was our third time at this restaurant over a 5 year period and it didnāt disappoint. A really well run family restaurant with excellent fish specials, good service and reasonable prices. We have always found it consistently good and would come back for a fourth time.
I don't know
Good place, good welcome. The quality/price ratio is not convincing especially the mixed fried food with vegetables, better defined as calamari and prawns, traces of vegetables and fish at 26 euros, not at all I would say an insult to the customer. I don't think it matters to the manager. Much better elsewhere in Venice.
Treat with real Italian food
I made reservation for lunch. It was easy to do it on their website. The restaurant is along the water. It seems small, but once I got inside, I was surprised how spacious it was. I saw the menu, and I wanted to order ātagliolini com granseolaā, but they didnāt have it. The waiter suggested spaghetti al nero di seppiaā because it is the local dish of Venice. I had it with a glass of Amanero. The noodle was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was excellent. It went well with Amanero. I had tiramisu for dessert. It was beautifully done. It seemed that there were regular customers when I went, so I think it is authentic Italian restaurant.
A slick, highly professionally run restaurant. An authentic taste of old Venice.
To call Vini da Gigio a relaxed, unpretentious family run restaurant, would be to do it a disservice. It's a slick, highly professionally run operation. The food is authentic Venetian fare, all prepared in a galley kitchen visible from the restaurant. We had spider crab, artichokes and grilled eel, for example. The wine list is incredibly comprehensive, and obviously cellared off-site given the numbers of times the sommelier disappears out the front door only to return with a bottle. Highly recommended.
Outstanding.
This was quite a long walk from the AC Hotel where we stayed while in Venice. The place was small but it had the old Italian interiors and vibe. We were greeted and seated once we walked in. The tables were very close to each other because of the small space but other than that, it was neat and nice. Our server was polite, efficient, and great. I loved the cover of the drinks menu, which was drawn by children. The dishes that I've tried were: SEAFOOD SAMPLER APPETIZER- everything in the plate was so tasty FISH CARBONARA- so delicious! TAGLIOLINI w/ SPIDER CRAB- how can I resist spider crab in pasta?! This was a winner! Even the TARALLI and bread were addicting. As usual, we have never failed in selecting any of the Italian wines that we've had anywhere in Italy. This was no exception. Overall, I highly recommend Vini Da Gigio to anyone who wants to experience the delicious and excellent Italian cuisine, in the gorgeous city of Venice. Grazie mille!

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been āmatchedā with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Payouts
Anyone can help with payouts, support hasnāt been helpful at all. My funds cleared and I can only retrieve $50 usd a day with a $5 fee and a % per transaction. It would take so long and so much in fees. Thanks!
Give the best answerDoes support work ?
I am having a tough time contacting and elucidating a response from AT Support. I had a listing at 6pm, which was a mistake as the actual listing reservation was at 11pm. This got somehow approved by AT, and a customer bought this from me for 6pm. I want to cancel this listing and refund customer , but there is no way of doing this ! This is so frustrating and making me lose hope on AT. Can someone help me please?
