Ospi Venice

The kitchen takes an inventive approach to Italian cooking across all-day service, sending out plates like skillet-served eggplant parmigiana and cavatelli with black truffle alongside lobster lemon pistachio linguine. While the dining room gets loud when packed, outdoor tables provide a calmer perch suited to both solo dinners and special occasions. The menu wanders well outside strict regional tradition, and visits can come with the occasional ordering hiccup or bill that feels slightly steep.
