Il Réfolo, Venezia

Purchase: 2 pizzas, 1/2 liter carafe of vino rosso, aqua frizzante
Cost: 37.80 euro (about $50)
Payment: Cards accepted
Pizza Rating:


Il Réfolo was probably the most note-worthy pizza we had during AJ's and my recent trip to Germany and Italy. It was certainly the best of Venice, and the crap we had in Germany didn't even compare. (In Catania, we were spoiled by Angelo's home cooking, and didn't get out much.) The crust was thin, but bready, the flavors were rich, and the atmosphere was the least touristy of all the places we went in Venice. Plus they have lots of outdoor seating, tucked away behind a church along a small canal. Che bello!
