Gam Gam

Finally, on my wife's and my seventh trip to Venice since 2007, we made it to Gam Gam Kosher Restaurant. We visit the Jewish Ghetto every time we come to Venice, and have walked past Gam Gam on each visit, but had never dined at the restaurant until the evening of May 4th. Our fantastic experience was well-worth the wait. The prompt, attentive, and friendly service provide to us by both Cinzia and Sofia made our evening genuinely enjoyable and set exactly the right tone for our dinner. We ordered the Chicken Shwarma to start, to be followed by Tagliatelle with Meat Sauce. As you can see in the photo, the serving size was "massive". The taste was out of this world, and the chicken almost melted in our respective mouths. Neither of us are big eaters, and we don't like wasting food, or seeing it wasted. We agreed there was no way we could consume the tagliatelle, so we explained this to Cinzia, then asked her if she would please cancel the order, and she soon came back to let us know this had been done. We had such a positive experience that we returned to Gam Gam for lunch on May 5th, and ordered the Tagliatelle with Meat Sauce. It was exquisite! Sincere thanks to Cinzia and Sofia for how very well you served us on Monday, and to Crystal and Sofia, who served us during lunch on Tuesday. We highly recommend Gam Gam for the freshness, quality, and serving sizes, which makes for an outstanding "value for money" dining experience in Venice.

Let me start simply: stop reading and start eating. This place deserves a screenplay rather than a review. The food is excellent. Properly cooked, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. The service is warm and genuine without being overbearing. If you talk with the staff they are happy to guide you and explain the menu. Some reviews seem to expect stiff, formal waiters, but that is not what you get here. The staff are relaxed, kind, and clearly proud of the place. Coming from the UK, where restaurant service can often feel rushed or indifferent, this was a real pleasure. If the menu feels unfamiliar, order with a bit of curiosity. We ordered widely and everything that arrived was spot on. Update: we ended up returning for a second meal during our four nights. I tried the matza soup and the sea bass. Both excellent. A different team on shift, but the same friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

The best kosher restaurant in Venice, the shawarma was our favorite soft and flavorful, the mezze platter with the falafel was delicious, chicken soup made you feel at home and the staff was very nice, recommend to make reservations since they might be fully booked .

Whenever I come to Venice I make sure to visit Gam Gam restaurant. Get the fried artichoke and falaphel with hummus. If you are here for shabbat come to the shabbat dinner. The best time in Venice
