The story
Tucked away on the Salizada de le Gatte, Taverna Ai Dogati is a 4.6-star bar that rewards the curious traveler. As Franchino Er Criminale notes in his video tour, it’s a “local gem” — a no-frills spot with old-school charm where the focus is on honest, affordable eating, a refreshing counterpoint to Venice’s many tourist traps.
The draw here is the tramezzini: soft, puffy sandwiches. Franchino specifically highlights the Tramezzino Insalata di Pollo e Uovo, praising its “good bread” and “generous filling” at a cheap price. It’s a simple, satisfying bite that embodies the tavern’s unpretentious soul.

Reviewers praise Taverna Ai Dogati’s tramezzino insalata di pollo e uovo as a standout, though the overall vibe is muted, with only one creator weighing in.
“This one has the most Venetian look — with the hump, two little triangles. The bread is thicker and firmer than the others, puffed with ham and a little Russian salad, so it's a bit dry in the mouth. But at €2 it's puffed. The chicken salad is atypical, very green — looks like Shrek — but you can taste the chicken, it's substantial. Considering the better bread and the chicken and egg salad that works, and we paid €2 each, this deserves a 9.”
