Venezia, Venice, Venissa

Taste the unexpected on a hidden Island

Callinectes sapidus, Andara inaequivalis, and Pomatomus saltatrix.

No, they’re not secret ingredients for a love spell—they’re just a taste of the local bounty you’ll find on the menu at Venissa Restaurant.

Picture a place where carefully crafted wines, Michelin-starred cuisine, and the tranquil allure of the Venetian Lagoon come together.

Welcome to the island of Mazzorbo, a scenic 30-minute boat ride from Venice.

And this is Venissa—the culinary home of chefs Chiara Pavan and Francesco Brutto, where tradition meets innovation in every dish.
