“ If you're near Mestre station in Venice, Hostaria Vite Rossa is an absolute must-visit. This cozy Italian restaurant served one of the best meals I’ve had in Italy. I ordered the linguini with lobster and a frittura (fried seafood platter), and both dishes were incredible — full of fresh flavor and perfectly cooked. The lobster was tender and sweet, and the pasta was just the right texture, soaking up all the delicious sauce. The frittura was crispy, not greasy, and came with a great variety of seafood. The atmosphere was welcoming, the staff friendly, and the overall experience was memorable. I would definitely come back next time I'm in Venice. ”
“ The friendly staff welcomes you when you step into the restaurant. Upon scanning the QR code, the menu can be easily found, and the staff was very patient to take an order. Grilled seafoods, salad, and pasta were impressive! ”
“ Everything outstendingly fresh and tasty. We could not stay away and visited even for drinks when trying other food places, as they have a great outside atmosphere as well. So, every evening we enjoyed this place, while we stayed in Mestre and visited during the day. Did not buy the same food 2 times, and I cannot decide which was better. Of wait ... we did get the tiramisu 2 times, as it is the right one. Congrats to the owners and personnel! ”
“ Fantastic local gem! Hostaria Vite Rossa offers delicious, authentic dishes with a great variety of pasta, fish, and local specialties. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the staff is friendly and attentive. A must-visit spot for a true Venetian dining experience! ”
“ What an amazing place. You can have a great dinner here and not spend more than 30 euros per person. The staff is really nice, but the food is incredible. It is the best culinary experience I’ve had in Italy and I didn’t expect it from such an unassuming place. The atmosphere is cozy and fun and portions are huge so asking for a couple of dishes and sharing is a good idea. Amazing stuff. I will definitely return if I’m ever in Venice. ”
“ Love Hostaria Vite Rossa! Super cozy vibe, really friendly staff, and the food was absolutely delicious. It’s a popular spot, so you might have to grab a drink and wait a few minutes for your table, but honestly, it’s worth it! They have a great variety of drinks and some amazing seafood dishes. The staff are always smiling, friendly, and attentive, which adds to the overall experience. Whether you’re coming for a casual evening or a special occasion, this place won’t disappoint you. Highly recommended! ”
“ Absolutely AMAZING lunch here just with 5 or so tapas. It’s where real Italians eat and very authentic. Don’t bother eating in the center of Venice. Come here for better quality ingredients and fresh seafood delivered every morning from the market (according to the website). I really enjoyed my time here and was sad I discovered it right before going to the airport cuz otherwise I would have eaten here every day. ”
“ We had an absolutely brilliant dinner! Full giant plate of fresh grilled seafood and vegetables. Best seafood I have ever eaten in my life. Great service and fantastic atmosphere. We will definitely return again next time Thank you very much we have really enjoyed our meal tonight ????????. ”
