In the past, there was a shared water taxi for lunch. I do not know if it still runs. if it does, for about 25 euro pp, a great ride out and back, and one of the finest restaurants in the lagoon.

the only time I have reserved a water taxi is in advance for a 6am or so flight out of vce.
Locanda Cipriani is an excellent choice. Owned by the same company as Harry's Dolci and Harry's Bar. However, the water taxi service is alas no more - meaning that you need to (a) hire a water taxi yourself to get you there and back or (b) take public water transportation. Neither of these are impossible but if you choose the latter, be prepared for about an hour travel time in both directions. Also, reservations are a MUST for the Locanda.

Enjoy
