About Ai Mercanti

Ai Mercanti is hidden in Corte Coppo in San Marco. The dining room is modern, in beige and black, and chef Nadia Locatello’s meat and fish dishes step away from the city’s standard repertoire.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Ai Mercanti before you go.
