Ai Ciodi - Grado

Local characteristic and typical of the lagoon. Fresh fish. Very kind staff. A place to detach the plug and enjoy nature.

The lovely place is the wonderful day spent by boat from Lignano, eating in the norm, the service to be reviewed as described by others in other reviews, however a stop is there, however booking, otherwise there is to wait a lot, good work

We came here by boat (obviously) from Lignano and arrived at around midday. The restaurant was full but we put our names on a waiting list and within 20 mins we were seated on a nice table close to the water. If you don't like fish, then there's not much here for you. However, if you do then then the limited menus great and the food is fresh and well delivered. Best meal of out holiday.

We rented a boat for the day, for our family and friends, in Marano Lagunare. We stopped for lunch in Grado, Isola di Buso. You can only get there by boat. This old fisherman’s house turns to be a wonderful restaurant, with a local charm. We waited for about 20 minutes during the week, but you should consider booking in advance. They have this local, charming yet rudimentary style of putting you on the waiting list, with you writing your name on a blackboard along with the number of persons till one table is free. There is no menu, the waiter tells you what you can eat. A gastronomic experience we’ll definetely repeat!

We were two families with a 2 and a 5 year-old kids. We rented a boat in Marano Lagunare (Nautica dei Pin) for the whole day (140 euros and 30 euros fuel). We stopped for a dive, watched the enormous jellyfish (great hunt for kids) and sailed to Grado. We stopped to eat at Al Ciodi, Isola de Buso. The place is an old fishermen village and it’s quite typical for that. Don’t expect a five star place, but the atmosphere is great, a real, authentic spot which we kindly recommend. The fish dishes are heaven! The kids emptied their plates of pasta with fish. We also tried the grilled dish, the fritto misto and an antipasti. They were perfectly cooked. We paid a similar amount to what we paid in Lignano Sabbiadoro. Take a mosquito spray with you if you are senzitive or for the kids. You might need to call and book a table in advance as the place is usually quite crowded. We had no reservation, marked our name on a blackboard and as soon as a table was free they called us. We waited for about half an hour on a Tuesday afternoon. There’s a swing for the kids.
