I'll make this quick--everything here is outstanding. From the moment you walk in, you're treated like family. It's the kind of place that if for some reason you wanted something that wasn't on the menu, they'd probably make it for you, no problem. Family-owned and operated, BYOB, and really good food in a relaxed atmosphere; there is nothing to not like about Cafe Venezia.

Wonderful Dinner as always. We shared eggplant rollatini to start. Had the Salmon in scampi sauce served with spinach and mashed potato’s - perfectly cooked, very good sized portion ( took half home for tonight). We splurged with dessert and shared lemon cello cake- delicious! This is one of our favorite restaurants! We were warmly greeted , the room has a very welcoming ambiance, BYOB. We highly recommend !
