Gam Gam sits right at the entrance to the Ghetto, beside the bridge over the Cannaregio canal, with tables set out along the fondamenta in good weather. It is the best-known kosher restaurant in Venice, run under the local Chabad community, and draws a steady mix of Jewish travellers, locals, and curious visitors.
The menu runs from Middle Eastern mezze — hummus, falafel, baba ganoush — to Venetian-Jewish dishes such as sweet-and-sour sarde in saor and artichokes. It keeps kosher hours, closing on Friday afternoon and reopening after sundown on Saturday, when it serves a popular Shabbat dinner. Friendly, generous, and reliably good value by Venetian standards.
