 Only the freshest selected ingredients from local waters and fields of the Venice lagoon are used by the chefs at your inn to prepare traditional dishes to delight and satisfy the palates of diners at the Ristorante Taverna San Lio. The same attention to the local delicacies (fruit and vegetables from Sant' Erasmo and lagoon and sea seafood) also goes into the wine list. |
 Whites and reds from Colli Euganei, Prosecco of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, plus Amarone, Valpolicella, Soave, as well as the finest Tuscan and Piedmont wines and a good selection of excellent champagnes. The restaurant dining room is pleasantly decorated with pale and modern furniture, panelling and tables in fine wood, in an elegant and streamlined style. The atmosphere exudes Venetian hospitality, animated by the international clientele that frequents our tavern. |
 After a short walk among the narrow and charming alleys, Saint Mark's Square will come into view in all of its spectacular beauty. The Procuratie demarcate the square and frame the splendid façade of Saint Mark's Basilica, crowned by opulent Byzantine domes and spectacular mosaics; the light pink and crenellated Palazzo Ducale faces the historic Marciana Library and overlooks St. Mark's bay, a scenographic body of water: this is truly one of the most beautiful areas of Venice and the world! The Rialto Bridge, located just around the corner from the hotel, has historically been the centre of commerce of Venice with the characteristic rows of goldsmiths and craftsmen that line the sides of the bridge from one bank of the Grand Canal the other. At the foot is the colourful and celebrated fruit and vegetable market and a bit farther along is the busy fish market. You can browse through the stalls to find botoli and castraure (baby artichokes) and other vegetables locally grown on the Island of Sant'Erasmo, famous for its flavourful fruit and vegetables, plus moeche and masenete (hard and soft shell crabs), schie (lagoon prawns) and anguee (sandsmelt), pevarasse and caparossoli (lagoon and sea clams) are only some of the crustaceans and fish indigenous to the lagoon prepared and served by Ristorante Taverna San Lio. |
