Venezia Restaurant

The best Italian food in midland, I am a big fan of this restaurant. As a pasta and seafood lover, I can honestly say this was very delicious! We were a group of 6, and the service was outstanding! The waiter never let our glasses go empty and was there anytime we needed him. The food itself was delicious, and you could taste the fresh ingredients. I had their Red Fish with crawfish and shrimp topping - flavorful and sooo good! The restaurant itself was clean and well decorated, had a relaxing Mediterranean vibe. I am a big fan!

This was our second visit here. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary. Food was impeccable, yet again!! Our sever was attentive (don't recall his name ). Nevertheless, he did a great job. Everything looked freshly prepared and the food came out quick and it was a Saturday evening with 6pm reservations. Needless to say, we will be back again in the future. Love this place! Atmosphere and ambiance are always wonderful too.

I've been to all the Italian restaurants in midland and by far This is my favorite. The food and sserservice is consistent. I always get the sea scallops & seafood pasta. If they run out of the scallops, i usually substitute it with the prawns. the lobster sauce they used for the pasta is amazing. Definitely a great place for a date nite. When the weather is nice, on the weekends they sometimes have live music in the patio area.

Date night at Venezia tonight. Great atmosphere. We had the rack of lamb and grilled quail. Both of which were cooked to perfection as always and wonderful. Our waiter was attentive and pleasant. He brought us a sample of a duck pasta dish that was the best homemade pasta I have ever had. Perfectly balanced flavors. Finished off with our favorite Tiramisu. Thank you Venezia for a fabulous dinner. As always you do not disappoint.

Good Food, Awful Service.Went for a birthday dinner last night - table of 13 at 7PM. The party had fully trickled in by 7:15 but 6 of us arrived at 6:50. We had not been spoken to by a server & had to go and find one to order drinks at 7:20. The waitress was so overwhelmed & slow that our food order wasnt taken until 8:20 & food didn't arrive at the table until 9PM. Then with dinner our party wanted to continue to order drinks & were told "well, we closed at 9 so I'll see what I can do" .... After our food didn't arrive until closing time (2 hours after we arrived). They did end up making us drinks, which was nice. When we requested our checks I saw that when I ordered a "tequila soda with grapefruit" the server rang in a $40/drink tequila. I did speak to the manager and get that removed and they were very kind about it. The server immediately said "I didn't know which one to choose, I didn't choose it because of the price" which made me really think that she did.... TLDR - the servers need much more training to get food orders taken & served, guests should not be made to wait 2 hours for food then feel guilted that the restaurant is closed. I will not be returning with a large party again. Also, they auto-grat large parties which made me feel like that's why she rang up a $40 tequila & didn't care much about service. Food was good but not worth the trouble, I'd recommend Fuoco or Italian Village instead.

I LOVED the ambiance and atmosphere. Inviting, warm, classy. Lots of family, double dates, meetings, and you can just tell by how busy it is on a Monday night. Reservations recommend but not required. The decor inside is wonderful! The pasta portion is hefty, good portion size, everyone's meals looks amazing. Great wine selection at a great price too! Would recommend!

Been in the military for 18 years and all around the U.S. no place comes close to Venezia. The atmosphere is so cozy and fitting for Italian. Our server was so awesome and attentive during our visit. And lastly the food is absolutely incredible and very reasonably priced! Will return here every chance I get.

When we first arrived we needed a reservation so we had to wait 30 min to be seated since we didn't have a reservation. Which is fine understandable. 30 min later I had to call to see if we were going to be seated. She said she forgot to reach out. Once seated, took 10 minutes to see our waitress. I asked the waitress for her recommendation between this plate and another and this was recommended. I will definitely not be asking for recommendations again. Not creamy at all, it was on the sour side. Probably my first and last visit here.

This is usually a great bet for a date night or special occasion. However the experience i had last night was not what i have come to expect. The atmosphere was welcoming. We were seated quickly to match our reservation. Staff was pleasant, the flavor of the food did not hit the mark. There was no WOW! Not to mention typically when you are dining at an Italian restaurant you are offered Parmesan cheese, but this did not happen. As I watched the tables around me I did not observe anyone being offered Parmesan. I will go again as it is one of our go to for special occasions, I just hope next time they are back to their awesome style!!

Atmosphere is the only reason I gave it two stars , it was beautiful inside BUTFood was not good at all No flavor Very greasy Bread is hard Not worth the money at all!
