Osteria alle Testiere is a nine-table seafood restaurant in Venice’s Castello district that has been one of the city’s most sought-after reservations since the late 1990s. Chef Bruno Gavagnin buys daily from the Rialto fish market and the menu changes accordingly. No tourist pasta, no fixed dishes, just whatever was best at the market that morning. Book weeks ahead at osterialletestiere.it. The effort is worth it.
