Tip: Kids Menu: Tenders with fries, Macaroni & Cheese or any pasta in a smaller portion. The food and service here is amazing!... We had several entrees, pizza and kids meals for the kiddos in our group. Everything was flavorful, fresh & delicious. I woulddefinitely recommend this place. Read more
Pleasant place to stop for a drink and a snack. My salad was tastier than expected, and the mozzarella chunks were enjoyed as... well. The side of bread seemed homemade and very good too. The service was excellent. Read more
First time at Venezia and we will be back :) the staff was great, from the hostess to the waiter to the manager checking in on... us to the buss staff, everyone was courteous. They did not rush us, but were always there when we needed them. We sat outsideand had the luxury of people watching while eating. The food was yummy. My family and I get around quite a bit and it's notoften you find an Italian place that makes gnocchi as well as this place :) There red sauce is also very good. (For those thatknow what you really want to know about an Italian place before you go :) Read more
We jumped in here to escape a thunderstorm because the pizza looks so good! My husband ordered a panini would he liked, although... it was a bit light on meat and heavy on the bread, and I ordered a sausage pizza which was huge and delicious! We had some greatbeers by 3 Daughters Brewing Company and watched the Masters on the gigantic screen at the bar. The bartender was super friendlyand walked us through some menu options that all sounded amazing. So glad we found this place and the Italian food that we sawpassing by like the lasagna and gnocchi dishes looks unbelievable. Can't wait to stop and again when we have more time fordinner. Read more

This place was busy at all times and for a good reason. The food here is AMAZING and I would definitely come back just to eat... here again. We ordered a couple of the pizzas, chicken parm and gnocchi and we did not leave any leftovers since we devouredeverything. The gnocchi in vodka sauce was super delicious. The pizzas were extremely cheesy in the best way possible. I wishwe had room for dessert as the tiramisu looked delicious. The server was also very friendly and attentive. I hope to come backnext time I?m in town! Read more
We had the Margherita pizza which was phenomenal!!!! The cheese was to die for and it taste so simple and so wholesome. The... lasagna was so good and the ground beef in it was so juicy. The linguine de mare was average - could use more ingredients assimple as garlic and salt. The penne pasta was good too. The calamari is average, the portion is too tiny for the price. Ourserver is good and the price is slightly high but we don?t mind because the food was good overall, authentic and theiringredients tasted fresh and of good quality. Read more
