Caffé Rialto

“Cappuccino e briosce buonissime, anche bagno pulito”

AVOID this place at all costs. It was THE WORST EXPERIENCE of our two-week trip in Italy. We stopped in during the rain for a quick sandwich, choosing from the photos on the menu, without checking the rating. When I tried to check the sandwich before leaving, the woman at the counter insisted I open it outside — a major red flag. Inside was barely any filling at all. When I asked for a refund, she refused and instead offered to add more shrimp. The whole experience felt dishonest and disgusting. Total tourist trap 🚩🚩🚩

Where else can you get a plate of freshly made hot french fries and a couple of glasses of chianti? We skipped on the cannoli, though they looked good. The servers were friendly and the place filled up once we sat down.

I got food poisoning after having their gelato. I honestly wouldn’t even call it gelato, it tasted chemical and disgusting, I didn’t finish everything. Shortly after eating it, I felt unwell, and it ruined my whole trip. I was sick for the entire time, and this happened on only the second day of my six-day trip… On top of that, I was charged extra (€2) for the gelato even though I had already paid the cover charge. When I questioned this, the lady claimed that because I was dining in, the gelato was not the same price as shown on the menu. This effectively meant I was charged the cover twice,

Cafe Rialto is a small tourist trap restaurant that is just steps from the Rialto Bridge. They do all of the typical things that bother North American tourists, like: - different prices for takeout versus dine-in - a bathroom that is only available to customers - short and attentive staff who will charge inconsistently As much as I normally don't like to knock on businesses, I would recommend steering clear of this place and trying to find a more authentic café while you are in Venice
