Inspired by the bacaros of Venice situated far from the crowds tucked away on side streets and alongside canals, giovane bacaro is a modern Italian restaurant that takes influence from the traditional Venetian bacaro.
The story of Venice-by-way-of-Vancouver restaurant Bacaro is steeped in culture, cuisine and hospitality. It’s more a love letter to Venice’s canal-side bars known as bacari than simply another scene from an Italian restaurant.
At the Venetian bacaro, it’s come as you are. Stay as long as you like. The natural ambiance blends seamlessly with modern Italian food that takes influence from the traditional Venetian bacaro.
Part of Bacaro’s charm is inspired by the way time passes in Venice — lingering with family and friends, eating and drinking, where you can move at your own pace. Guests are welcome to drop by for a quick spritz and Cicchetti with friends or linger a little longer and enjoy dinner.
Welcome to Bacaro. A loose translation of the quintessential Venetian Bacaro experience, yet one where nothing is lost in translation. A space that proudly pays homage to the culture, cuisine and style of the bacari: their pace, pride of place, and time-honoured conventions of the Italian approach to food, drink and conviviality.
