The seductive evening soul of Venice Venice
As evening falls over the Grand Canal, Francy’s reveals an entirely different side of The Venice Venice Hotel. Set within historic Ca’ da Mosto directly across from the Rialto, the restaurant becomes the hotel’s after-dark gathering place—romantic, atmospheric, and unmistakably contemporary while remaining surrounded by centuries of Venetian history.
The setting is exceptional. Byzantine arches, exposed brick, amber lighting, and textiles inspired by ancient Venetian tapestries create a seductive backdrop that extends from the intimate courtyard and historic sotoportego to the coveted terrace overlooking the Grand Canal.
The menu mirrors the hotel’s philosophy of looking simultaneously backward and forward. Venetian specialties are reinterpreted alongside refined international classics, using seasonal ingredients and presented with the playful creativity that runs throughout the Venice Venice experience. Expect dishes such as sarde in saor and baccalà mantecato alongside crudo, oysters, pastas, meats, and sophisticated classics.
Francy’s feels less like a conventional hotel restaurant and more like the evening expression of everything Venice Venice is trying to create—a meeting point between historic Venice and the city it might become next.

Insider Insight
Reserve the Grand Canal terrace, and make your reservation early enough to watch Venice change from day to night.
Francy’s opens at 6:00 p.m., making an early reservation surprisingly desirable. Begin with aperitivo while there is still daylight on the Grand Canal, watch the boats move beneath the Rialto, and stay as the palazzo transforms under amber light.
The experience isn’t limited to the terrace. Take time to explore the historic sotoportego, courtyard, and Byzantine architecture surrounding you. Francy’s is part restaurant, part immersion in Ca’ da Mosto.
And don’t rush directly to dinner. Aperitivo naturally leads into the evening here, which is precisely how we think Francy’s should be experienced.
Francy’s is one of the strongest reasons to experience The Venice Venice Hotel after dark. The extraordinary setting, Grand Canal terrace, contemporary interpretation of Venetian cooking, and creative energy of the hotel come together beautifully once the sun begins to disappear. This isn’t simply dinner at a fashionable hotel; it’s a glimpse of a younger, more provocative Venice unfolding inside one of its oldest palazzi.
Francy’s captures the Venice we love most with centuries of history behind you, the Grand Canal before you, and the feeling that the city is still capable of surprising you.
