The list of Michelin-Starred restaurants in Venice 2017 is now official. This year Venice boasts seven restaurants awarded with one star by the famed guide and Where® brings you a round-up of them, for true connoisseurs of taste!
A map of these venues follows
01. Confirmed: Dopolavoro, on a Venice island

Aptly named ‘Dopolavoro’, which means after work. The renowned names of Giancarlo Perbellini and Federico Belluco are behind this new restaurant housed in a building dating from 1936 on its own private island – the Isola delle Rose, right out in the Venetian lagoon. After a day of business meetings or exploring Venice, enjoy delicious gourmet recipes with an individual flavour and skilful light touch – the true mark of a great chef.

02. Confirmed: Il Ridotto, Castello area

Located just steps from San Marco, Ridotto, “reduced” in Italian, refers to the size of this tiny, gracious restaurant. The innovative menu employing traditional elements is revised daily, with the offerings tending toward lighter, but wonderfully tasty versions of classic dishes. A particular characteristic? It only has 9 tables.

Its carefully prepared dishes are full of flavour and presented in a bright, colourful way.

05. Confirmed: Osteria Da Fiore, San Polo area

An Osteria only by name because this is actually an elegant, starred restaurant. Its cuisine ranges from the most authentic traditional flavours interpreted in a modern-day key (meaning that offerings tend to be lighter) to more unusual dishes invented by the chef, intended to be a close to nature as possible thanks to a great selection of highly sought-after seasonal ingredients. Ask for a wine recommendation from its excellent wine list which also features several international labels.
