Pietra Rossa

Set in the historic Sotoportego della Corte Nova, where legend says the 1630 plague was miraculously halted, Pietra Rossa offers true Venetian hospitality–the kind found in Castello, one of the city’s most authentic districts, where a more conscious and genuine form of tourism thrives.

Opened in 2023 by Andrea Lorenzon, this restaurant offers a refined yet playful approach to Venetian cuisine, blending tradition with contemporary creativity. Pietra Rossa celebrates local flavours with a commitment to ethical, seasonal ingredients, sourcing from Sant’Erasmo’s Osti in Orto and selecting sustainable meats, Adriatic fish, and Slow Food products. As an advocate for natural wines and a member of the Buona Accoglienza network, the restaurant embraces a philosophy of conscious dining and warm hospitality.
