An incredible dinner and wonderful atmosphere! My boyfriend and I recently came back from Italy and have been craving those authentic Italian flavors. This absolutely hit the spot! We will absolutely be back in the future.

In the age of dating apps, romance has become pretty damn terrifying. After years of swiping right, we've been conditioned to keep our dates low-key. Sure, maybe you bought or received some nice grocery store flowers in the last six months. But we're talking balls-out romance here: a candlelit dinner where you both get more dressed up than necessary, drink too many glasses of champagne, and go home and have sex in a bubble bath. Instead, most date nights these days consist of a couple cocktails, some chickpea fritters, and a weird Uber ride home. And we all seem content with that.
Venice's Italian restaurant Ado has been renamed Barrique. Chef Antonio Mure still presides over the kitchen, while Tony Black, formerly Ado's head server, has stepped in as a co-owner. The charming setting also remains the same: a vintage 1908 wooden house painted canary yellow. The menu of rustic, high-end cuisine highlights homemade pastas, such as the signature red beet tagliolini with Marsala quail ragù resting on a bed of rich Taleggio cheese fondue, along with game dishes like grilled wild boar chop.
