After my 3rd visit to Venice I finally got to eat here. I thought it would be unique to eat kosher food even if I am not Jewish. We were seated in a tiny table in the corner with not much space or light. The food & the service was excellent. We had a couple of different waiters and they... More

The food at Gam Gam was tasty, the menu was varied, and the wait staff was very friendly and helpful. It was packed, so if you are set on going, be sure to make a reservation.

We just had drinks here before exploring Il Ghetto but the complimentary and much appreciated snacks were such a lovely gesture ! If we had found this bar earlier in our holiday I am sure we would have returned several times - friendly service and a warm welcome. Give it a try!

This has been the poorest dining experience of our 3 weeks in Italy. It was a shame because the Jewish sector of Venice was my favourite part. The food was ok. However, the service has a long way to go. The waiter only spoke one word to us the whole time, even though he had delivered and then later removed... More

Food good, tasty. Staff friendly, toilets clean. No service charge, no cover charge and no extra charge for sitting outside. Lemonade fantastic.

My husband and I just returned from an incredible afternoon of criss crossing over many bridges and canals in beautiful Venice as we made our way to the world's FIRST Ghetto...the Jewish Ghetto of Venice. Right outside the still existing walls is Gam Gam restaurant where we had almond cake and incredible chocolate mousse before catching our water taxi back... More

As this was my second time to Venice I decided to explore away from San Marco and Rialto and went to the Jewish quarter, Wherby I discovered "Gam Gam" a small "Boutique" style Restaurant offering very high quality Kosher food, Don't let this put you off I'm not Jewish but I love good food and this certainly delivers that, there...

I live in Venice now and travel a lot. Gam Gam (costs $25 per person) and the Cipriani (easily $200 per person) are the only restaurants I have been to that continue to impress me in Venice and that don't treat their customers as though they will only see them once. I have liked everything I have tried at Gam... More

Venice is a place to visit before you die, but the cost of eating out may provoke an unexpected heart attack, especially at Christmas and the New Year. If your wallet is gasping and if you prefer honest fayre to pricey morsels, then Gam Gam is for you. Not that this is some cheap joint. It's by a canal, not... More

We had lunch at Gam Gam sitting by the canal after sauntering around the Ghetto area. My husband and I are vegan but there was plenty to choose from - unusual for us! The waiter was very helpful, recommending things we could eat or offering to modify the dishes on the menu for us. The food was delicious. Our friends... More
