It is best to select local, off-the-beaten path restaurants when dining out with kids in Venice. For family budgets, Venice has amazing street food options and casual dining, it’s just a matter of finding the right place! Here are parent-proven recommendations on where to eat with kids in Venice.

Aciughetta –Aciughetta is good for a kid-friendly option near Piazza San Marco. Just a few minutes walk from the San Zaccaria vaporetto stop, Aciughetta offers parents a chance to taste some Venetian specialties and cicchetti of a typical Venetian wine bar, with simple delicious pizza options for the kids prepared in a wood-fire oven. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The prices are higher than off-the-beaten path options due to the location, but the menu offers something for everyone and the kids will be happy with the seating outside.
