Bacarandino - VENEZIA

The menu included vegetarian starters and when I was clearly struggling to find a suitable main course, the waiter offered a vegan special spaghetti with chilli and black pepper, and a creamy burrata mozzarella starter. It was good but a bit limited. Updated from previous review on 2023 04 09

There weren’t any vegan options on the menu; when we enquired we were told gruffly there was spaghetti with ‘red’ sauce and that was it. We ended up ordering it and a side of roasted vegetables which we then made into a vegan pasta at the table.

When I opened the menu, I did not see anything vegan and when I asked the first waiter he almost had a laugh and then said they have no vegan option. Another waiter came and offered different pasta dishes (tomato sauce and basil, with vegetables) and that's it. We stayed anyway and I had the tomato sauce and basil pasta dish, it was really good and tasty but many restaurants offer this dish in Italy, I don't see why this place should be listed on HappyCow for that.
