Neighbourhood gem

Partners, Eric Papachristos and Chef Paul King have brought The Venetian back to its glory days. Chef Paul focuses on the classics of neighborhood Italian American cuisine, homemade pasta, steaks & chops straight from the butcher, Craft cocktails, and an impressive Italian & American wine list. A fresh renovation has brought 1950’s elegance of black tin-ceilings, red leather tufted booths, and chandeliers to the South Shore.The Venetian – A Weymouth Tradition, Reimagined.

We didn’t love our table. It was a table for four, in a doorway, with a chair stuck on the end to accommodate 5. Even without the 5th chair, my daughter was hit in the arm by a serving cart twice. We had a very nice experience, but we made our reservation well in advance just like every other person. That table should be removed. If the servers cannot move around it comfortably without hitting customers, you don’t have room for it. We loved everything and will def come back off holiday for the great food, drinks, and service. But for a $700+ bill for lunch? Everyone deserves a nice table.

Too busy to provide good service, very noisy. Sat 2 hours with small kids, food order came out wrong. Christmas decorations were nicely done but could add more to make the dining experience worth the trip.

The food was absolutely horrible. It’s mind boggling how bad it was. Check Marsala was watery and no flavor, Orrichettie was so spicy and the pasta was mushy, kids Mac and cheese we couldn’t even eat (was Kraft as they ran out of the usual I guess) so dry. Kids chicken tenders were pink. Even the tiramisu was bad. So much gum stuck under the table. The decor is nice but for $200 meal I would go elsewhere. Service was good.

We loved it! The atmosphere music and everything for the Christmas display was so cozy and pretty! Service was great! The only complaint was that my fiancé's salmon was so tiny and dry, like smaller than the size of a fork. Not worth 32$. Everything else was great though and we lovedddd the creme brule!
