"It’s a little expensive, but it’s really worth it. I went with two other people and I had the lamb and it was good. My friend had the steak which I had a piece of, and it was delicious as well. The presentation of the food was well worth it too as each plate looked amazing. I would definitely come back here and I extremely recommend it."

"The restaurant is right next to the canal. Stunning view during the sunset. We ordered several dishes, they were all good, especially the shrimp for starter and the fish for main. Tiramisu was the best one I had during this trip"

"A cozy, intimate spot right that was perfect for a relaxed sit-down meal. Great food (make sure to get the fish cicchetti sampler appetizer), warm atmosphere, and a wonderful place to linger and enjoy Venice slowly on a quiet canal. We spent hours eating and drinking here and didn’t want to leave."

"Great place for food with a view Unfortunately we arrived with bad weather so was not able to sit outside by the canal We said inside away from the cold and it was a different kind of cozy atmosphere The waiter was friendly and spoke great English The food was good except portions felt bit small for the prices The costs are definitely higher in Venice compared to other cities in Italy You can tell this place is often visited by tourist as they have some many restaurant reviews and awards You can also choose to get some cicchetti by the bar downstairs and sample more items as they are known for their cicchetti"

"Some Friends ask me join here, spending afternoon with canal view. The Place has two sides, but I sit in front of the canal. The second floor only open in winter time. It is reccommended for Group, “COUPLE”, Family and Chit-Chat here. The Staffs are good enough handling 5 of us, who came partially. They offer a good snack and wine. I really like being here and I reccommend this lovely place. Gratzie."

"Al fresco sitting with the grand canal in view is lovely. The range of cichetti is so good. We ended up almost ordering one of each. We had 12 different ones. Totally enjoyed them as each of them is well balanced and flavoured. Service staff is great too, warm and prompt."

"Well, after a fair few glasses of wine, I'm likely to wax lyrical about this restaurant, but by God they deserve it. After two weeks travelling through Italy, South to North, and some really "good" food, I feel like we truly discovered "great". Osteria Bancogiro was just wonderful. The setting next to the canal, the friendly and welcoming service, and the food...! We decided to have the grilled octopus as a starter. Southern Italy eat your heart out. It was amazing. Then the veal and the lamb. Utterly sublime. We couldn't have asked for a better first evening meal in Venice, with more welcoming and friendly staff. Go there if you can. You'll thank me!"
