" Dining at The Venetian was an amazing experience! We celebrated with a large group and the staff handled our party with great care. Our waiter was excellent and ensured our glasses were never empty. The food was rich and flavorful—definitely recommended the chicken marsala. The ambiance is relaxed, making it ideal for family meals. Overall, a fantastic option for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious Italian meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at The Venetian was a mixed bag. The décor is charming and you get that authentic Italian vibe, but the food didn't quite match the ambiance. I ordered lasagna, which was somewhat bland and missing that rich flavor profile. The portion was enormous, which is a plus, but I left feeling unsatisfied. Service was fine, nothing extraordinary. I would recommend trying their pizza, as I heard that’s what they're really known for. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mediocre experience at this restaurant recently. While the garlic bread was decent, the main dishes didn’t deliver. My seafood pasta was overly garlicy and lacked the freshness I expected. The environment felt a bit too crowded at times which made it uncomfortable. The staff was friendly but seemed distracted, which impacted the service speed. Not sure if I'll come back anytime soon unless I hear better things. " (*Curated Review*)

" There’s something genuinely special about The Venetian. The food has a heartwarming quality that feels like home-cooked Italian fare. My friend and I celebrated our engagement here, and we both raved about the stuffed shells and our complimentary dessert. The portions were enough to share, adding to the overall experience. If you’re looking for authentic flavors and a cozy setting, look no further. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a regular at The Venetian for years, and it remains one of my favorite spots! I always go for the pizza, it's just the best I've ever had—so cheesy and bursting with flavor. The servers seem to remember regulars, which adds to the charm of the place. Occasionally, it gets busy, but the staff manages to keep things running smoothly. A fantastic choice for any pizza lover! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here after hearing rave reviews from friends, and thankfully, it did not disappoint! I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, which were deliciously rich and full of flavor. The ambiance was inviting and perfect for a night out. Service was attentive but not overwhelming. My only complaint is regarding the restaurant's parking situation—it's a bit tricky at peak hours. Still, I’ll be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered takeout from The Venetian, and I have to say, even the food travelled well! The chicken fettuccine was creamy and the vegetables were cooked just right. I appreciate that they offer ample portions, perfect for a hearty meal at home. The staff was pleasant to deal with when I picked up my order. While in-house dining is lovely, takeout from here is definitely on point! " (*Curated Review*)
