Fodor's Review:

The decor is more discreet, the dining hours longer, and the service friendlier and more efficient here than in many small restaurants in Venice—and the creative non-fish menu is a temptation at every course. You can start with a light salad of Treviso radicchio and crispy bacon, followed by smoked-beef carpaccio or gnocchetti ubriachi al Montasio (small marinated gnocchi with Montasio cheese). Then choose from secondi such as lamb chops with thyme, anatra in pevarada (duck in a pepper sauce), or Irish Angus fillet steak. Secondi are served with vegetables, which helps bring down the price. The restaurant is open only for dinner, but serves much later than most, continuously from 6:30 to 11.

We always try to have a great last meal for our trips. We selected La Bitta because it is known for no fish. The food was excellent - we had Duck and Beef. But the real winner was the dessert - the Spice cake was incredible. It was an easy walk for the water taxi and it made for a great ending.
