This location boasts a stunning view! The food was scrumptious, and the portions were very generous. Reservations are a must due to high demand. While the tables were a bit cramped, snagging a window seat made up for it.

A stunning venue with breathtaking views! The cuisine was not only delicious but also served in generous portions. Reservations are a must for this popular spot. While the tables were a bit close together, snagging a window seat more than made up for it.

Wonderful dinner with my wife, daughter, son in law, and grandson. Staff is incredible. Edwin “Gato” is the best waiter. Food was incredible as usual. The hidden gem of Boston. Keep spending your money on the tourist traps. Bostonians know where to go for good food at fair prices. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

I found the place not as beautiful as they want to make you believe. Food Portions were abundant and the service was kind and proper. But quality food was not super. Fried fish full of oil and too much garlic. Linguine overcooked. Too expensive for the food quality received.

The haddock was delicious & so was the stuffed filet of sole. Was too full to get dessert but they all sounded great! Our waiter was very attentive but bus girl kept trying to take my plate away while my husband was still eating and I wasn't quite done as we eat slow!

One of our favorite spots. The food and service are excellent. Our server, Tracy, is particularly outstanding. Knowledgeable about the menu and attentive to our needs. The views of the water is also a highlight.

Seated promptly. Nice bay view table. Quiet. Fast service and great food. Large portions. Meal was during Dine -Out Week Boston. Large menu options. Plenty of parking. A little off the beaten path but well worth it. Have dined here many times.
Venezia is always the favorite place for our group to gather. A nice surprise this visit was the generous and delicious Dine Out Boston menu which featured a variety of selections for all three courses! Everyone was very pleased with their meal. We hope to be back soon.

We have held events there as well as had dinner many times over the years. It has always been delicious and the service very nice. This dinner started out well. We had reservations and were seated promptly near the window, celebrating our grown daughters birthdays. Our waiter, Edwin was ok. We did have flag him down a couple times. The food was delicious as usual. But... there was a couple dining next to us with four young children. They were running around the tables singing and dancing. Their iPads were way too loud. At times the mom was up dancing with them. All the diners around them were visibly aggravated as this was Saturday evening fine dining. Everyone in the area was staring at them but they were clueless. No restaurant staff said anything to them. After our meal was done but ruined, I stopped by the table on the way out. I said I understand you want a night out with the kids but maybe a more family friendly restaurant would be better. I asked them if they had noticed that the other diners kept looking at them when the kids were running and dancing? They immediately started screaming and swearing at me at the top of their lungs. They screamed "don't tell us what the F to do!" The mom started to record on her phone. The dad spit in my face yelling "where are you from? Where are you from?" I calmly said why does it matter? He yelled we come here all the time and nobody says anything to us! I felt threatened was by his violent reaction. So close to me as a woman and aggressively leaning in. In the meantime the waiter leaned in between us and picked up their check from the table, not saying anything. I was just in shock that the couple could react so violently with their children looking on. After a couple minutes a woman came over but never introduced herself, I assumed she worked there in a management capacity? She said can I help here? The man immediately started yelling saying she's trying to tell us what to do with our kids at a restaurant! She said to me "why don't we go over here? Not saying anything to the couple. As she walked me out, again not saying anything to the couple, she said you are right, absolutely right. I will go talk to them. It's not right for that behavior in this restaurant. We stood at the front desk chatting for a couple minutes as I said I was so dissapointed. I cannot believe a restaurant like Venezia would allow that to happen. Sadly we will never go back.

I made a reservation for restaurant week and when seated I was told they don't honor restaurant week on Saturdays which is not documented on the site and was allowed to make reservations through the restaurant week site. I ordered a seafood with vodka sauce and the half lobster was on top with vodka sauce on top of it, extremely messy situation. My husband got grouper which was ok but the rice pilaf was horrible. I'm all set .

I keep forgetting about this restaurant. I haven't been here in years. Decided to bring my mom for lunch last dinner. We had the short ribs with whip mashed potatoes and carrots. This is actually dying out week so we had a three course meal. It was delicious. The stuffed mushrooms was delicious as well. My drink was a peach cobbler martini and it was very strong but delicious.
Seafood dish had way too much pesto in it. Rest of food good. Apps were great. Surprised waitress didn't give her name when she began. No printed beer options, but waitress knew them by heart.
