Traveling with husband, two adult kids in their 20s, looking for restaurants in Venice that have a few vegetariand and non-seafood items. Have reservations in San Polo one night (Birraria La Corte) and in Castello for Lunch (Le Tole Spaghetteria). Have also been recommended La Bitta in Dorsoduro -- no online reservations but will try to call.
Would love a few other recommendations!
Ristorante Libanese - Gibran
Ital India
I just google search the type of food I like to eat and read the menu online. We went to both of these and liked both; did not need reservations during high season, party of 5.
I am not a seafood fan and have never had any trouble finding places to eat in Venice or anywhere else in Italy. Most recently, in December 2023, during a 10-night stay, my family's favorites were:
La Rampa in Venice (also on a previous trip)
Osteria La Zucca (also on two previous visits)
Osteria da Pampo in Castello was good and lively
La Palanca on the Giudecca — workers ate there early when we did and then regular customers came in at 1:30pm
Fun to eat at the canal-side place unpromisingly named Very Good, but it was very good
Ca’ d’oro alla Vedova (how the restaurant spells it on Facebook) just a few feet off the busy Strada Nova —- nice meatballs!
Nancy has good recommendations.
Birreria La Corte? Except for pizza, I see few vegetarian items on their menu:-looks like a meat specialist., with some fish and shellfish.

I don't see much for a vegetarian at Le Tole, either, except some pizze and one veg pasta.

La Bitta says they specialize in meat but it looks wonderful.. I'm sure they have someone who speaks English answering the phone. or have your hotel or host call them for you.
