Venice Cabaret 💃

The show was very interesting except the overall cost which dampened it. The cost for the show with food is fine. Food was ok ok. Can be better. But a disclaimer needs to be added while booking that the cost of transport from Venice may be more than the show. Specially, since the show ends at midnight.

Must experience when in Venice!

I was very apprehensive at first from reading some reviews. But we were very very pleasantly surprised! Everything was amazing . It was quieter than we expected but since it was the first day after the carnival it was understandable. They were more than made up for it with free flieing Presseco on arrival. Amazing artist with a wide range of acts. The food was ok as it was different to the menu we thought we were getting but that did not hinder our evening . We had a beyond expectation experience and amazing value. Thank you.

Avoid: Poor Food and Unauthentic Experience

The venue is located in the middle of nowhere. My sister and I traveled alone from Venice, which felt a bit unsafe, and on top of that we had to spend around €70 on taxis. I am honestly shocked by the positive reviews, especially regarding the food. This was the worst dinner I’ve ever had. The food was completely inedible — poor flavor, terrible presentation — and we sent almost everything back. A huge disappointment and a bad representation of Italian cuisine. The performers were talented and had good energy, but when attending a cabaret show in Venice, you expect something authentically Italian. Instead, we got English covers and even a Michael Jackson tribute, which felt completely out of place. The seating arrangement also makes it uncomfortable to enjoy the show, especially if you’re seated with your back to the runway. Overall, this experience is not worth the money — not for the food, not for the show, and not for the comfort. I do not recommend this event at all.

Must-see show!

We had a wonderful night at the Cabaret! The staff was fantastic and welcoming from the moment we arrived, just 10 minutes after the doors opened. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. The food was very good, and the talent on stage was unbeatable, truly an incredible show. If you’re in Venice, I highly recommend taking a quick trip to see this fabulous entertainment. Don’t miss it!

Super!

Negative premise. On the evening I was there, we were in 8 diners in all.... unexplained. The place is nice... a bit "tacky", but nice. The dishes were many and very good. Despite the few people, the show was superb. Singer, pianist, dancers... really good. Very professional waiting staff. I hope this place can have the success it deserves.
