Looking for a Venice/MDR restaurant for a nice Sunday early evening dinner with son-in-law

Had a great dinner at Gjelina last week. It's a bit of a scene, to be sure, but fun for someone coming in from out of town, if he's in the mood for that sort of thing. Food was so good. Especially loved the brussel sprouts with bacon. The faro salad w/heirloom tomatoes was very fresh and tasty. Waitstaff was friendly but overworked, I thought. But stay away if you don't like noise or celebrities. Adrien Brody, Michael Bay, Seth Rogan all there the night we went, and we had a hard time hearing each other.
