Score
Going back to 2022, Ristorante San Marco has eight inspections in the public record. The newest entry in the record is dated Dec 4, 2025. Low risk means the most recent visit produced few or no significant findings.
The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around five violations to closer to two violations per visit over the last few inspections.
The pattern that stands out is “raw animal food stored over/not properly separated”, which has been cited two times.
That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Venice restaurant scores 78. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
