Description

You pass through beautiful hilly scenery to get to Cartosio, where you’ll find this typical country house specialising in local cuisine. Although it’s been in business for several decades, during which nine different generations have been at the helm, the formula has (fortunately!) hardly changed, with a focus on Piedmontese dishes made from top-quality local and seasonal ingredients, with the main courses still cooked on the wood-fired stove. The wine list includes some excellent vertical labels, especially from the main wineries in the Langhe. Simple yet attractive guestrooms are also availa

Review summary

Located on Venice Lido, Cacciatori offers Piedmontese and seasonal cuisine with a focus on quality ingredients. Guests frequently praise the stunning views of the Giudecca Canal, the sunny atmosphere, and specific dishes like pizza and scallops with pumpkin. However, reviews highlight significant inconsistencies in service, including unfriendly staff, forced USD charges, and conflicts over reservations. Some diners found the interior stuffy and the food average, noting that popular items like cod often sell out. While the location provides a quieter alternative to the mainland, concerns regarding value for money and tourist-oriented practices persist. The restaurant delivers a memorable setting and generally good food, but potential visitors should be prepared for variable service standards and ensure their expectations align with the casual, family-run environment.

Best for

Suitable for travelers seeking waterfront views and authentic Piedmontese flavors, but be prepared for inconsistent service.
