Agli Amici Dopolavoro is a marvelous restaurant where the work of man and the natural ecosystem blend to offer an experience that expresses the uniqueness of the territory, enhancing its exquisitely local products. Welcomed into a large room with an open cellar and a counter for preparing aperitifs, with a large window overlooking the vegetable garden and the Venetian lagoon, guests will immediately have before them all the sources of what will be their journey with us, with wine, food, the sea and the vegetable garden.

    Amazing, one of a kind experience! Taking a complimentary shuttle to their private island is unique and very fun. Lovely facility and service was impeccable. Tasting menu is on par with their Michelin stars but be aware they only have/had vegetarian or seafood menus available. Wine pairings were interesting and unique. Chefs visiting the table at the conclusion of the meal was a nice touch! Would highly recommend if you are looking for a special experience in otherwise very touristy Venice.

    We spent 2.5 weeks in Italy, mostly aimed at finding and trying Michelin restaurants. This was the last meal of our trip, and was by far our favorite. It’s not cheap, but worth every penny. The service was impeccable and the food was unique, creative, and delicious. A wonderful cap to a memorable trip. Thank you for making our final evening special!

    We recently enjoyed a wonderful summer vacation in Rome and Venice. I chose Agli Amici Dopolavoro, a new restaurant in Isola della Rose in Venice, run by Emanuele Scarello, a Michelin-starred chef, to celebrate our 20th anniversary. My wife and I took a water taxi from Hilton Molino Stucky to get the beautiful island, which already made our experience very special. Nice and enthusiastic staff members greeted and escorted us to a table on the terrace where we enjoyed cocktails and the first course. We then entered the nice and quiet dinning room to enjoy the rest of an amazing dinner. I ordered LagunAmare, a tasting menu with wine paring in advance. All the food and wines they served were absolutely outstanding. Several waiters and waitresses worked together to serve us very efficiently. Although they were all so young, they had extensive knowledge of what they were serving. More importantly, they showed extraordinary enthusiasm and pride! We wondered how the owner has established such an exceptional culture. Agli Amici Dopolavoro has become our favorite restaurant. It's probably the best restaurant we have ever visited (and we travel a lot). We plan to return to Venice to celebrate our 25th anniversary at this restaurant!!!

    From beginning to end, this restaurant was an experience. The staff was attentive and very kind. The food and drinks were phenomenal. I would recommend to get the fish menu with drink pairing to enjoy to the fullest. Would recommend 10/10.

    I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. I would be surprised if it didn’t receive at least one Michelin star very soon. The staff was perfect and the food delightful! It’s worth a 20 minute boat shuttle from Venice to try. If you’re staying at the JWMarriott, for sure don’t miss a chance to eat here!

    Amazing! This was truly an experience to remember and cherish - from the warm welcome we received, the tour of the impressive vegetable garden, the expertly prepared aperitivo and delicious cocktails, to the delicious food and expertly paired wine. Even the food was served with style and precision! Everything about our visit was such an amazing experience which we loved, from start to finish. Thank you!

    Exquisite experience with truly delicious cuisine presented beautifully. Staff (very) plentiful and polite, friendly and attentive. The vegan options are world class, delicate and delicious with ingredients often from their own garden. Wine pairing makes it extra special- all in all very highly recommend.

    Wonderful dining experience while staying at the JW Marriott. The food and service were certainly at a Michelin level. We chose the lagoon prefix meal with wine pairings and the portions weren’t overwhelming. The presentation was fantastic with each serving well thought out and prepared perfectly. The service was great and for only being open for 2 months we can’t wait to see where the future takes this amazing restaurant.

    One of the best meals we’ve ever had. Creative, and beautiful presentation, absolutely delicious, and professionally served. We’ve dined in many Michelin-starred places, and this one stands among the most memorable. It’s only been operating under this team for a couple of months, but I’m guessing they’ll have at least two stars before long. Bravissimi!

    If you like food served as art this is a dining experience to be relished. Portions are bite sized but exquisitely flavored with unusual combinations that highlight subtle flavors of elements of each dish. Service is extraordinary with two to three staff engaged at any one time at your table. There are large gaps between tables leading to a sense of intimacy while you dine. You never hear a conversation from a fellow diner. All of this comes with a very high price tag, but it is a once in a lifetime experience and worth the price.
