Antica Osteria Ruga Rialto
Lonely Planet review for Antica Osteria Ruga Rialto
Although seafood salads and the classic fritto misto e pattatine (lightly fried lagoon seafood and potatoes) – Venice’s answer to fish and chips – earn this osteria (pub-restaurant) a loyal following, drink is the common bond at this place by night’s end. The back room doubles as a gallery of local emerging artists, and the occasional live-music set fills the narrow alleyway with revellers all the way to the Grand Canal.
