The story
On the quiet island of Giudecca, Cip's Club captures the essence of Venice. Chef Roberto Gatto offers classic Venetian cuisine, reimagined with a playful, modern touch. The setting is the historic Hotel Cipriani, where the spirit of the city comes alive between bites of food, lively conversation, and the gentle rocking of the lagoon waves. The restaurant's approach to classic cuisine has earned it a Michelin Recommended award, a testament to its consistent quality and refined experience.
The restaurant's position is its defining feature. Overlooking the basin of St. Mark's Square, the view is theatrical—a panorama of domes, palaces, and the shimmering water that encircles them. A complimentary boat shuttle from Piazza San Marco brings guests across the lagoon, transforming the meal into a true Venetian escape. This is a place where the city itself is the backdrop, discovered one bite at a time.
By day, the terrace basks in the sun as boats glide through the lagoon. The tables are set with classic Ginori Doccia porcelain and Murano glass, creating a refined, nautical atmosphere. As evening falls, the focus shifts to the sunset. The Fondamenta Terrace opens at 6:30 PM for aperitifs, where the water's gentle lapping provides the soundtrack. The sky shifts through shades of orange and red before giving way to a star-lit night, making this one of the most memorable spots in Venice for dinner.
