Trattoria Vini Da Arturo

Venice


Everyone in this corridor-sized restaurant comes for the same reason: the fantastic array of salads and Arturo's vinegar-soaked pork chop. For more than 40 years he has served his classic meat menu to loyal regulars who include a long list of celebrities. Come for the cosy atmosphere, great food and charming service. Prices are high, but plates are meant for sharing.
