    They treat you like a local here! Super friendly service. Simple but delicious and inventive food. And let them explain the great variety of majority natural wines that will go best with your dinner. One of our best dinners in Venice. Tucked into a quiet little square.

    UPDATE: RETURN DECEMBER 2019 If you are culinarily (ok, invented word) curious, willing to explore the gustatory world far beyond the traditional Venetian fare, Ai Mercanti is for you. Tucked away down an alley off a narrow street across two bridges from our great hotel (Rosa Salva), Ai Mercanti is an enclave of the eclectic. (Note: We dined at Ai Mercanti in Sept. 2018 and their “hot dog” special still holds a high place in my dining memory bank.) We made sure they were open at holiday time, and having mentioned we had been there before, and the hot dog, were told they had a new special…”hamburger.” To repeat: Ai Mercanti takes pride in being different. Exhibit A – “apparentely crispy egg with potato foam and anchovy” (house specialty). Add sweetbreads and eel and you get the feeling this is not your usual pasta/antipasto place. Back to the hamburger, an ensemble that included a succulent sirloin patty couched in a sesame roll, with sides of cabbage, two strips of bacon, small ‘omelette’ and Dijon mustard. Different is the understatement. Our waiter/navigator, Mr. Diego, was personable, attentive and “kindly assertive.” He knows his stuff and you should let his guidance flow. Our foursome enjoyed a cheese plate starter – six cheeses and 3 jams including a “green tomato” potion. Entrees included duck breast with buckwheat kumquat orange and ginger; not-your-usual spaghetti imbued with local olive oil, (for me hold the) garlic and chili peppers (mild); paccheri with ricotta and chard. A bottle of fine red wine and a pink (no kidding) pinot grigio. A dessert of sweet potato spiced cake with smoked milk ice cream. Total tab for four = 185 euros. If you are willing to separate from traditional Venetian dining, Ai Mercanti is an experience worth….experiencing. Be brave! We had this place on our five-night Venetian culinary itinerary first and foremost because of the TA reviews…especially the “push back” ones from the owner. We had to meet this guy…and we knew we’d better be there on time or he would show us the door. All kidding aside Ai Mercanti came off as a pleasant and relaxing upscale restaurant that you definitely need a map – or fantastic guide - to find. Now about that hot dog…listed just like that on the menu…but not your American ballpark or BBQ variety. Rather a tasty blend of meats and spices served in a substantial roll. For this mustard-only guy pondering a hot dog with pineapple topping caused some anxiety but my apprehension turned to complete satisfaction. It worked! Wait staff professional and courteous. Extensive menu listings and elaborate wine list. Despite what other reviewers are saying the prices were surprisingly reasonable…especially when you realize it’s Venice…in high season. Worth finding for fine dining. Bravo, Ai Mercanti!

    Great service, incredible food, excellent wines, beautiful atmosphere in a quiet ambient courtyard or relaxed restaurant interior. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. The opposite of garish Venetian tourist purgatory. Well priced for the quality. Just lovely, don’t hesitate.

    My husband and I were looking for somewhere great to enjoy dinner while in Venice and couldn't be happier with what we found at ai mercanti. The dishes are thoughtfully composed with a focus on simplicity and quality. Each ingredient really shines here. The service was excellent and the wine recommendation was spot on. You absolutely must eat here. Don't forget to try the homemade limoncello!

    Must visit in Venice! The food was amazing, probably the best risotto I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried quite a few, I’m a self proclaimed food enthusiast). The staff was friendly and attentive - our server ensured to clarify whether we have any food allergies, and he spoke to my husband in Spanish (his language) and to me in English (my language) which was such a nice touch to show his effort. One tip that was shared with me by our waiter - for the white chocolate mousse, try to make sure you have all elements of the dish in one spoon when you take a bite (including the caramelized capers, marmalade and honey sesame crisp). If you love chocolate - the chocolate interpretations dessert is a must try. Special thank you to the restaurant for keeping a donations for Ukraine box near the entrance, warmed my heart to see it ❤️ One of my favorite places from the Michelin guide. Will definitely visit again!

    This is a tough one to review, as the whole is definitely greater than the sum of the parts. The food was overall a bit hit or miss, but the hits were outstanding. Service was the same with one server effusive, welcoming and helpful and the other a bit cold, albeit still attentive and professional. The ambiance is simple but clean and elegant. On to the food. The crispy egg definitely stole the show and was quite amazing both in appearance and taste. 5 stars for that dish for sure. The smoked mackerel was unique, and creative. Tasty, but I’m not sure the components paired together really worked. I personally would have just preferred the lightly smoked fish by itself. The croaker entree was excellent, and frankly one of the best cooked pieces of fish I have had in a long time. Perfectly seasoned too. The pasta with red shrimp was a bit of a miss. Just ok. The sauce was underwhelming and the pasta just a bit too thick and chewy. The cheese plate was good with a few nice pieces and a few just so-so. One cheese still had a fair amount of hard rind on it which was a miss. The dessert however was sublime: the pan a cotta with apricots and peppercorn and a salty cookie crumble base. Amazing both in taste and texture. One of the best desserts we’ve enjoyed. The wine was similar. First we tried was overly acidic and didn’t pair well with our appetizers. The second however was eye-opening - a nice zibibbo which had an aromatic and sweet ice wine like nose, but was dry and not sweet at all on the palette. A nice contrast and surprise. So although a few dishes were less than stellar, I can’t help but be pleased overall with the meal given the strong dishes being outstanding, especially for the price.

    Fantastic meal in a spot tucked away from the major thoroughfares. We didn't know they'd won a Michelin star when we made our reservation, but it was immediately obvious why they did. Loved every bite.

    Distinctively Italian cuisine with plenty of creative augmentations. The smoked fish was very light and blended well into the flavors of a fresh cheese and peach. The squid ink pasta was intricate. The chocolate interpretations presented many ways of combining chocolates and creams, very experimental.

    If I could I’d make it 6 stars, I’d do it! The minute I walked in, I fell for this place and its outstanding hospitality. Once you start talking with the host about the menu, food, and how they source the local produce, ingredients and natural wines, a wave of food love and passion rolls right over you! Ai Mercanti brought Venezia’s cuisine to the next level, they reimagine classics, and turn them into something utterly delightful! Go if you’ve got a chance! Take a deep dive into Venice’s fresh and contemporary slow food passion, and enjoy the culinary adventures … and the incredible wines!

    This meal was incredible. The food was amazing. My only complaint was it was quite warm in the restaurant. But the food was exceptional and elegant. The best dish of my entire Italy trip was the surprising antipasti of fish with goat cheese and peaches. It was an odd combination that worked beautifully.

    Not what we were expecting at all. And very pleased! Innovative food, great service, exquisite decor. Highlights were the octopus and the curried genovese sponge pudding with candied celery (yes!). If I'm back in Venice would definitely go back. Loved it!

    We went to this place with high expectations, based on the price and the amount of good reviews. Unfortunately the food was average, the service not impressive and there was bad air. Not worth it in my opinion.

    Took my partner here for her birthday. The restaurant did not disappoint. My favourite dish was the octopus, I would go back there for this and I wish it was on the mains menu. However the beef rump was anything special for the price. However the rest was good fine dining

    I had a great dinner here! This little place is tucked away in a cute little plaza which gives a very private and romantic atmosphere. The service was amazing. The servers were cheerful and friendly. I had the smoked mackerel and croaker fish. Both were presented wonderfully and tasted great! I would definitely recommend this place!

  • 4/5 Clint Plas (. 7 months ago on Google • 19 reviews
    Delicious food, Italian classics with an original twist. We had a very cheese spaghetti, pasta with shrimps in a bell pepper sauce and panna cotta with apricots. The staff was friendly, quick and knowledgeable.

    Hidden gem in Venice! Food was great and delicious, but nothing extraordinary. The service was impeccable! The restaurant is located in a courtyard, in the busy Venice but yet far from the crowds. I recommend!

    (Translated by Google) Inventive and quality cuisine. The pancetta (delicious) is served with leek. The divine chard paccheri. To finish the dessert, a white chocolate mousse with tangerine, original and succulent. (Original) Cuisine inventive et de qualité. La pancetta (délicieuse) est accompagnée de poireau.

    A hidden Jewel - haute cuisine at very affordable prices. Dont't believe the €€€ ranking, it should be €€. Better believe the rating though, the food is incredibly good, the waiters most competent and friendly. The atmosphere is stylish and relaxing - to be recommended in every way!

    Excellent food! There are cooks, chefs, and food artists. This is the latter. You could tell each dish had been thought out and prepared for ultimate flavor. I don’t always like sea food but we had the smoked mackerel, cod soup (to die for!! And I don’t like fish. It doesn’t taste fishy at all. Almost like a really flavorful Thai curry flavor), and muscles in gnocchi and they were all so great and fresh and NOT fishy! It’s in a cute little square too with plenty of space to sit. Or favorite place in Venice hands down!!

    Fabulous informal place hidden in a tiny alley a few minutes walk from Piazza San Marco. Cosy, bustling atmosphere and excellent food at prices that are very reasonable for the location. Probably the best meal we ate in our trip, Even though Venice is a city with many great restaurants.

    This is a restaurant for foodies. Who would have thought that raspberry butter and sardines go so well together. Creative menu, and extensive wine list of natural wines. Staff very knowledgeable about wines. Would visit again.

  • 5/5 Jan P. 1 year ago on Google
    Brilliant classic Venetian yet innovative food with a strong focus on the region and season. They only have natural / bio / organic wines and a great, funny sommelier - the whole crew is so chatty and happy you almost forget it’s a cutting edge restaurant. Thank you for having us!

  • 5/5 claudia t. 1 year ago on Google
    *chef's kiss* and hands down to the chicken magret 🤌🏻 came across the family-owned, michelin-recommended restaurant - ⭐️Ai Mercanti⭐️ in Venice! since it’s extremely hot these days and i do not have much appetite for a big feast, i opted for the warm chicken magret as main. the chicken breast is soooooo tender and beyond exquisite 🤩 it’s a light but fulfilling choice as it comes in 2 large pieces and served with a yoghurt sauce. the kumquat on the side are also a surprising touch 🍊 they’re grilled to bring out the sweetness, making it the perfect addition for an appetising plate 🔥

  • 5/5 Guillaume N. 1 year ago on Google
    This is what I call a TOP restaurant! Our best restaurant in Venice: dishes were delicious and fresh, I highly recommend the creative egg and well-seasoned octopus that were incredible in terms of taste and flavor. The desserts (Panna Cotta and chocolate) were also really light and on point to finish the lunch. The service was great, the waitress was super kind and friendly. Thank you again, we will come back once back in Venice!

  • 5/5 Vibes 0. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Delicious, beautiful, pleasant service The case when I understand the price / quality ratio. The dishes are well thought out, it is pleasant when the waiter brings the order and describes what is made of what, like a story to each dish. We ordered octopus with broccoli and white fish, both dishes were delicious, unusual, beautifully served. Recommend. Be back Delight, surprise and desire to repeat the visit At the indicated address, carefully look for the turn to the courtyard and there is a restaurant, then it will not be difficult to find it. The booked table by 8 o'clock in the evening was provided on time, but there is a condition that requires confirmation of the order by phone on the day of the visit. Regarding the selected dishes: delight, enjoyment of flavor combinations, cooking skills. We chose resotto with cuttlefish as the first course (only cooked if you order for two). It was so tasty and the fish broth on which the risotto was cooked could be felt so well. Now we will long remember this taste of risotto and pieces of cuttlefish in it, For the second course, my husband ordered an octopus, and I ordered a duck. Before filing, I laughed at my husband's choice and assumed that the octopus would be rubber. How wrong I was: perfect cooking, soft, not overexposed in the pan. The duck also exceeded all expectations: soft, juicy and the color of the meat inside is pink. Bravo to the chef and everyone who performs this. All waiters, without exception, do not work for a minute without losing attention to all customers, there is no need to look for something to ask for something. They periodically ask or pass by in order to immediately respond to the request. In conclusion, the husband asked for coffee with Montenegro balsam, to which the waiter suggested trying something more worthy: Amaro Venesian. It's really worth a try !!! This restaurant has left the best memories. We recommend visiting it, being quite picky about food and especially service. Gorgeous In the evening we decided to have dinner, got in without a reservation, went for good luck around 20:30 pm, after reading reviews. Luckily for us, there was a place for us. It really takes a lot of work to find a restaurant. The menu is not big, but very interesting. We tried mackerel with peaches and goat cheese, cod in coconut sauce with lemon grass, lamb, dessert with pancotta, meringues, ice cream and marshmallows (milk in many types), drank sparkling wine (two types), and delicious coffee. Delighted with everything. From dishes, from service, from prices. The price tag for Venice is very pleasing, and in terms of price / quality ratio, this is the best that we have visited in Venice. We ate in Venice in restaurants of different price levels. Barely much more expensive and less tasty. In our opinion, this is a great place and it is worth going here on purpose Belissimo! We, of course, are not restaurateurs, but we ate in different places around the world, in Moscow, this institution is in our personal TOP of places. Booked a table a month in advance, confirmed the reservation on the day of arrival, at first they laughed, thought what nonsense, but then they understood everything. The restaurant is full, and it seems that they always have this. The food is delicious! We took octopus salad, cheese plate, lamb, garlic pasta and wine! Took on the recommendation of the waitress (the girl speaks Russian) for 22 euros I recommend wine! total check for 100! Everything was delicious! (Original) Вкусно,красиво, приятный сервис Тот случай, когда я понимаю соотношение цена/качество . Блюда хорошо продуманные , приятно , когда официант приносит заказ описывает , что и из чего сделано, словно история к каждому блюду . Мы заказали осьминога с брокколи и белую рыбу, оба блюда были вкусными, необычными , красиво сервированные. Рекомендую. Вернусь Восторг, удивление и желание повторить визит По указанному адресу внимательно найдите поворот во внутренний дворик и там находится ресторан , тогда не будет сложностей его найти. Заказанный столик к 8 часам вечера был предоставлен вовремя, но есть условие которое предполагает подтверждение заказа по телефону в день посещения. По поводу выбранных блюд : восторг , наслаждение от вкусовых сочетаний , мастерство приготовления. Мы выбрали первым блюдом резотто с каракатицей ( готовят только если заказываешь на двоих) . Это было так вкусно и так хорошо чувствовался рыбный бульон на котором ризотто готовилось. Теперь будем долго вспоминать этот вкус ризотто и кусочки каракатицы в нем, На второе блюдо муж заказал осьминога , а я утку. До подачи я посмеялась над выбором мужа и предположила что осьминог будет резиновый. Как же я ошибалась : идеальное приготовления , мягкий , не передержанный на сковороде. Утка тоже превзошла все ожидания : мягкая, сочная и цвет мяса внутри розовый. Браво шефу и всем ,кто это исполняет. Официанты все без исключения работают не на минуту не теряя внимания за всеми клиентами, нет необходимости выискивать взглядом , чтобы о чем то попросить. Они переодически спрашивают или проходят мимо чтобы тут же отреагировать на просьбу. В завершение муж попросил кофе с бальзамом Монтенегро , на что официант предложил попробовать что-то более достойное : Amaro Venesian. Это действительно стоит попробовать !!! Самые лучшие воспоминания оставил этот ресторан. Рекомендуем его посетить, будучи достаточно придирчивыми к еде и особенно к обслуживанию. Шикарно Вечером решили поужинать, попали без брони, пошли на удачу в районе 20:30 вечера, начитавшись отзывов. К нашему счастью, для нас нашлось место. Чтобы найти ресторан, действительно придётся потрудится. Меню не большое, но очень интересное. Пробовали макрель с персиками и козьим сыром, треску в кокосовом соусе с лимонграсом, ягнёнка, десерт с панокотой, меренгами, мороженым и маршмелоу ( молоко во множестве его видов), пили игристое вино ( два вида), и очень вкусный кофе. В восторге от всего. От блюд, от сервиса, от цен. Ценник для Венеции очень радует, а по соотношению цена/качество - это лучшее из того что мы посещали в Венеции. Мы ели в Венеции в ресторанах разного ценового уровня. Еле гораздо дороже и менее вкусно. На наш взгляд это великолепное место и сюда стоит идти специально Белиссимо! Мы, конечно, не рестораторы, но кушали в разных местах по миру, в Москве, данное заведение в нашем личном ТОПЕ мест. Бронировали стол за месяц, в день прибытия бронь подтверждали, сначала смеялись, думали что за бред, но потом все поняли. Ресторан полный, и кажется, такое у них всегда. Еда очень вкусная! Брали салат с осьминогом сырную тарелку, баранину, пасту с чесноком и вино! Взяли по рекомендации официантки (девушка говорит по Русски) за 22 евро Вино рекомендую! общий чек на 100! ВСЁ было очень вкусно!

    Amazing food and wine selection indeed. Located down a small alley way with a few tables of courtyard seatings which I absolutely loved. I went there for a late lunch, had grilled octopus for starter- everything on the dish was so flavorful and compliment each other really well. The pasta was a bit weaker, but the handmade mint fettuccini was refreshing with a salty kick of fish roe. Will be back next time I’m in Venice.

    Great place. Very calm and pleasant atmosphere. Modern but Venice tradition oriented design. Service is impeccable. The cuisine is delicious. Sopressa(salami) in vianaigre, squids in anchovies sauce, suckling pig belly, tagliatelli with calf cheek, white chocolate mousse with clemantine jelly with capers are great. Good wine list and wide choice of different grappas.

    Based on the good reviews and recommendation, we decided to try this restaurant in Venice and we were not disappointed. The restaurant was a bit difficult to find if you don't pay attention, it is hiding inbetween streets. Good price for the quality of food and lovely ambience. Wine pairing was great too! Only thing is the guy who gave us wine pairing was very indifferent and not interested but other staffs were kind and attentive. Overall very satisfied dining experience.

    We found Venetian fare to be rather average as far as Italian food goes. Hard to pick a favourite as all the dishes were delicious, wish we could have ordered the entire menu. Took a risk and ordered a teriyaki dish, expecting the typical overly sweet non-Japanese interpretation. However we were pleasantly surprised with a dish that had very nicely balanced flavours.

    (Translated by Google) Gourmet Fusion cuisine for everyone. A stimulating gastronomic journey accompanied by attention to service and attention to detail. The basket, the coffee, the spirits .. nothing is left to chance. Experience to repeat and recommend, more than fair price (Original) Cucina Fusion gourmet a portata di tutti.

    Fantastic Italian cuisine! The “Less is more” principe really shines through in this wonderful place. The simple dishes are made with so much love to ever ingredient that you will be blown away by every bite you take. You simply have to try this restaurant and if you are here for a week I would book at least two nights here. The waiters are very competent and knowledgeable about the wine and food and they really make you feel at home. All in all just perfect!

    (Translated by Google) One of the best restaurants in Venice. Creative cuisine, refined and well presented dishes. Marinated mackerel, sardines recommended as a starter. The octopus is perfectly cooked and goes wonderfully with the pesto. The salmon semifreddo is thin and light. In addition the courtyard is quiet and slightly windy in summer. A delight! (Original) Un des meilleurs restaurants de Venise. Cuisine créative, plats raffinés et bien présentés. Le maquereau mariné, les sardines recommandées en entrée. Le poulpe est parfaitement cuit et se marie à merveille avec le pesto. Le semifreddo de saumon est fin et léger. En plus la cour est tranquille et légèrement ventée en été. Un délice !
