On May 13, 1931, Giuseppe Cipriani opened Harry's Bar in Venice. Over the years, Harry's Bar has become the place where writers, painters, artists, aristocrats, kings, and queens would meet. Among them were: Barbara Hutton, Katherine Hepburn, Gary Cooper, Giancarlo Menotti, Peggy Guggenheim, Orson Welles, Frank Lloyd Wright, Joe DiMaggio, Truman Capote, and Ernest Hemingway. The keys to the success of this small bar were: service, freedom, and lack of imposition.Throughout its 93-year history, Harry's Bar has witnessed the 20th century in Venice. Its importance was also recognized by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage, which declared it a national reference point in 2001. No other public place in Italy had received the same award in the same century.

The Bistrot de Venise was first opened in 1993. It is a place where people can meet up and savour the Cuisine & Wine as they enjoy figurative arts, poetry, cultural gatherings and a host of other activities dedicated to Venice. …in 1999, the Bistrot de Venise took its concept of blending culture, food and wine from the Veneto region a step further when it began to carry out research into Rare Wines and Historical Venetian Cuisine. …We are still steadfastly continuing along this path today…

    Went for an all American Christmas dinner here while in Venice. From the appetizers of wings, spicy shrimp, and nachos then to our entrees of ribs, salmon noodle bowl, and classic burgers, we were stuffed. The portions were big that we couldn't finish our entrée. There was never ending refills coming our way as well. Our server Fabio and the rest of the staff were courteous throughout our dining experience.

    This was a special night out for my wife and I while in Italy for a 2 week vacation. Not our first time to Venice but it was our first time to this restaurant. The food and service were beyond compare. Giuseppe made excellent menu recommendations and Micha paired the perfect vino with each course. If you are looking for the most delicious food and top notch service in an outstanding atmosphere this is your place. The seafood, beef, pasta, wine and desserts were levels above the rest!
