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.
