The convivial, crowded Al Mascaron, with its paper tablecloths and informal ambience, is a regular stop for Venetians who drop in to gossip, drink, play cards, and eat cicheti at the bar. You can bet on delicious seafood, pastas, risottos, and seafood salads. A popular fish dish is the baccalà alla Veneziana (codfish with raisins, pine nuts, and cinnamon). A few doors down the calle (at No. 5183) is Mascareta, a pleasant bacaro under the same ownership.
