Less than forty euros for a complete menu. Small side note; the portions are meant to be shared. The name TOZI means \u2018a group of friends\u2019 in the Venetian dialect, but it also refers to the food culture of this Italian region. And yes, that means shared dining.<\/p>\n<p>The most delicious courgette fritti<\/p>\n<p>After a basket of wonderfully crisp breadsticks, our all-time favorite arrives at the table: crispy and salty courgette fritti. We\u2019ve eaten these at many restaurants, but we unanimously agree: they are the very best here. On the one hand, that\u2019s because they are truly paper-thin, and on the other, because they are so deliciously salty. They come with a bowl of truffle mayonnaise.<\/p>\n<p>Next comes a plate of brioche filled with chicken liver p\u00e2t\u00e9\u2014with black truffle\u2014and wild berry compote. Incredibly delicious! The p\u00e2t\u00e9 is alternated with pieces of toasted brioche, which makes for a wonderfully flavorful combination.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"ff-image-81480 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diningandcooking.com\/restaurants\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Tozi-brioche-en-courgetti-fritti-688x360.jpg\" alt=\"Tozi brioche en courgetti fritti\" width=\"640\" height=\"335\"  \/>TOZI\u2019s brioche with chicken liver p\u00e2t\u00e9 and courgette frittiIconic black truffle risotto<\/p>\n<p>TOZI\u2019s\u2014by now iconic\u2014black truffle risotto is incredibly delicious too.
