Restaurant Al Vecio Fritolin

• S. Croce, 2262
• Venice

A fritolin was traditionally a kind of fish-and-polenta takeaway. Here they have revived the tradition at lunch time.

As recently recommended on the wine critic Jancis Robinson's website, this welcoming traditional but also distinctively individual wooden-beamed restaurant, in a very old building a few minutes from the Rialto, is worth searching out.

Run with love and flair by its jovial owner, Irina Freguia and her team, the service is friendly.

The chef transforms the freshest daily ingredients from the nearby market with some creative touches.

Capacity of max. 45 pax.
