Vibe: Uncomfortable charm, overpriced buzz

Gjelina's buzzing hipster-centric environment undeniably exudes a certain charm. Yet, the discomfort of alley dining and presence of flies turn down its vibe significantly. The Venice vibe does come with its own hip music, but the overpriced drinks and unromantic alley seating can be a downer.

  • Great Buzz

    Great vibe, popular, full of energy, and hipster-centric atmosphere.

  • Okay to Entertain

    Perfect Venice vibe with hip music enhances the friendly ambiance.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Complaints about alley dining, uncomfortable seating, and presence of flies.

Perks: Parking pain, unkind service

While the trends and tastes at Gjelina are head-turning, the annoyance of limited parking and disappointing service can cause frustration. Waiting beyond your reservation time and experiencing the rather drafty outdoor alley seating on uncomfortable milk cartons can be vexing.

  • Okay For Diets

    So many options, satisfying both meat eaters and vegetarians alike.

  • Bad For Pets

    Service animal denied entry, showing severe lack of pet accommodation.
