Why do you think the hotel restaurant is closed? Have you called/emailed/faxed to ask? If not, I'd suggest you do so, and if it is closed all you'll need to do is ask them for recommendations in the neighborhood.

I agree with StCirq, double check, because hotel restaurants are more often the ones that will stay open for holidays. Other hotel restaurants:
La Rivista (in the Ca'Pisani), Caravella
(in the Saturnia), restaurants also in the Monaco, Europa Regina, Metropole, Danieli, etc though yes, these will be pricey.
Also check with the restaurant Sempione, not far from Rialto, medium priced, pretty good food.
Another moderate to inexpensive one: Trattoria San Toma.

Thanks for your suggestions yes I have already tried emailing the hotel already but still no reply - The Rialto Hotel it did have good write ups on various internet pages but they have not yet responded & I am thinking that it would be better to book a table before we arrive.
arrival.
arrival.

We had dinner on Christmas Day last year at Poste Veccie - just near the Rialto Bridge. it was excellent. A large numbr of restaurants are closed around Christmas - but even so, you won't have trouble finding somewhere. For a cheap eat try Birraria in Campo san Polo, or as already sugested trattoria San Toma in Campo San Toma - although neither were open Christmas Day last year. Another excellent choice is La Zucca in Santa Croce - although you absolutely have to book.
