The only fine dining experience to be had on San Marco piazza itself, the Quadri is one of the city's top restaurants. Featuring some of the first dark wood furnishings and sparkling chandeliers that would come to characterise a quintessential Venetian dining room, it is presently run by the Alajmo family. Silvio Giavedoni and the sous chef Denis Mattiuzzi maintain a menu of increasingly traditional Venetian cuisine, the fish coming direct from the city's lagoons and Rialto market every day. Tasting menus range from €180-220 without wine.
