The warm wood-panelled interior and huge selection of Veneto wines by the glass are just part of the popularity of this friendly bar-cum-restaurant. Other reasons to stop by are generous cicheti platters, belly-warming plates of gnocchi and braised beef in red wine, and wine-tasting flights (€31 to €46), which include the heady Amarone from which the bar takes its name.
