Our Menus

Cicchetti - Pronounced ‘chee-keh-tea’

Small Plates

These small plates are Northern Italy’s answer to Spain’s tapas and are typically ‘shared’ between friends in later afternoon or evening. Cicchetti are served in wine bars across Venice and made using the day’s market finds. Enjoy as an appetizer or order several plates for a meal. Perfect with a negroni or a glass of wine from our wine list.
