AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers praise Alonzo Risorto’s Bigoli in salsa as a standout, delivering rich, briny depth in every twirl. The overall vibe is warm, comforting, and quietly confident home-style cooking.
“Bigoli are these unique Venetian pasta shapes that are essentially thick spaghetti served in a sauce made out of caramelized onions and anchovies. It may sound strange, but it's actually really really good — sweet, rich, umami, and also very simple. A testament that Venetian cuisine was not only about opulent food but also about very humble food. If you're looking for a really good rendition, head to the cozy garden terrace of Al Nono Risorto. You'll be sitting surrounded by plants and trees, which is another rare sight in Venice, with dimly lit bulbs overlooking a beautiful palazzo. The bigoli in salsa there is very good with a nice glass of wine.”
