This place used to be good but it went downhill. Food was bland and they served us burnt cookies which took a really long time to get. The server had an " I don't care attitude". We will not be going back!

Cafe Gratitude in Venice is open, airy and spacious with a nice outdoor space. Our waitress unfortunately was slow and seemed distracted and so drinks arrived late and food arrival was ok but the happy hour menu has minimal choices with too much bread and carbs. I am a questioning meat-eater who is testing the vegan waters and, honestly, this experience diminished my desire to try a no-animal protein vegetarian diet...oh well!
