Luminous Venice
Sit where
the city opens up
Trattoria San Basilio is a Venetian seafood trattoria in Dorsoduro, Venice, with outdoor tables overlooking the Giudecca Canal, between the Zattere and the San Basilio waterbus stop. Average spend €20-30. Reservations: +39 041 521 0028.
Not the narrow Venice of the busiest passages. Here, on the southern edge of Dorsoduro towards the Zattere and the Giudecca Canal, there is space, water and full light.
A simple yet scenic pause: a glass on the table, the canal drifting slowly by, pale stone in the sun. What you eat matters, but most of all where and how you feel.
5 minutes from the Zattere · away from the crowds · tables in the sun by the canal
