VENICE - Lunch / Dinner open on Sunday? In S. Croce?

[pusherman]

Hello All- My wife and I are excited to be in Venice for the first time in 2 weeks, and are finding the information and advice here both useful and overwhelming!

I am hoping for some help - we will arrive by train from Milan Airport on a Sunday afternoon, no doubt jet-lagged and starving. Can anyone recommend a good but easy late lunch option open on a Sunday? Even better, an easy dinner option also open on Sunday? We'll save our fancy meals for other times, for this meal good, simple, and easily navigable for non-Italian speakers is the goal.

For lunch, best is if it is near our apartment, which is in Santa Croce...we're happy to move further afield for dinner. Were hoping for Zucca, but not open on Sunday!

One additional hang up - one of us (OK, it's me) doesn't do seafood (the other is happy to).

Thanks for any help!

Not many choices for Sunday in Santa Croce; if you don't eat seafood, the above mentioned pizzerias are your best choices. For both, lunch service ends at 2:30pm. A branch of Muro Pizzeria con Cucina on Campiello delle Spezier is pretty good. Besides pizza, there are a lot of other choices. Pleasant outside seating on the campiello. I think it is open throughout the day.
