    Great spot! Amazing food and great service. I have a gluten allergy and their gluten free pizza was some of the best I've ever had.

    A friend and I dined on a Saturday evening. It was busy, but not unusual for this restaurant. We ordered a salad and asked for it to be served first. Our entrees arrived before the salad. It did not spoil the evening but it was an error on the part of our server.

    Excellent meal with great service from Gabe, Grace, and Nate! Veneto Sunday Sauce is superb! So worth the trip, even on a cold and windy Sunday evening.

    Have dined at Venetos for dinner several times and is always wonderful! Tried Sunday brunch for the first time. Service was great, mimosas were $5, indoor back patio with fountain was nice but food was lackluster. Ordered brunch board and bowl. Eggs weren’t real, pancakes and French toast sticks seemed frozen. Everything was not quite warm. Bacon, homefries and brunch bowl were great!

    Delicious food! Ambience a bit brighter than I prefer, would be nice if they could dim the lights a bit. Otherwise outstanding.

    The special - giant shrimp, pancetta, tomatoes, spinach in a mild spicy cream sauce with rotini - what can I say but amazing!! But, then again, we are regulars and I’ve never had a disappointing experience here. Staff are amazing! Go there!

    Everything was absolutely delicious, as usual. I did notice the arancinis were a little smaller than the last time. The seasonal dessert was pumpkin cannolis, and they might just be my favorite thing in the whole world

    They let us sit ten minutes at the door before even acknowledging us. Waitress forgot to bring our drink to table. Had to remind her twice. Pizza was floppy wet seeming and cheese was cold. You have to beg to get your food. They need training. Until they do that we wouldn’t go back.

    The food was good, but the spacing between the tables next to the wall was very limited. Guests on both sides of the table felt very squeezed in. The restaurant was in the process of training new wait staff, but overall the service was slow due to what appeared to be back ups from the bar and in the kitchen.
