Vini da Gigio

At a glance

Vini da Gigio is a family-run Venetian restaurant at Calle Stua, Cannaregio 3628A, with lagoon cooking and wine at the centre of its identity. It suits a meal where choosing a glass or bottle matters as much as choosing a dish. The menu includes both fish and meat, so a seafood dinner here does not require everyone at the table to follow the same theme.

Lagoon dishes and wine

The restaurant’s linked menu includes creamed stockfish with polenta, spider-crab tagliolini, cuttlefish with polenta and grilled eel with caponata. These examples show its Venetian seafood range, but the PDF has no service date; use it to explore the cooking rather than as a guarantee of today’s dishes or prices. The operator offers a daily wine-by-the-glass selection. Vini da Gigio is listed in the MICHELIN Guide, whose description also notes its fish, meat and wine offering.

Is Vini da Gigio exclusively a seafood restaurant?

No. Fish is an important part of its Venetian cooking, but the restaurant also offers meat dishes. Its wine selection is another reason to choose it.
