First time dining at II Venetian. The food was amazing at this restaurant, and the service was top of the line. The server we had was very knowledgeable about the menu, and he was extremely attentive. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

This place has amazing food, great atmosphere. And here is how you know it is high-end. Our waiter was terrible. But the manager stepped in, took care of us himself, and comped the wine our waiter forgot. Classic!

The staff at this restaurant is amazing. I've stopped in a few times since I'm staying in the hotel. The front staff has been super friendly and remembered me on site. They were so helpful with all of my questions and made excellent suggestions. I ate at the bar and the bartender was also superior. He enjoyed describing the various menu items in detail and it was clear he was appreciative that he was able to represent and recommend such fine food. His service was of the finest quality as evidenced by the subtle way he indicated to the server which customer's meal it was with just a slight nod. I had the veal agnolotti and it was just amazing. The veal had a silky tenderness and the pasta was very light, just there to hold things in place. They practically melted in your mouth. You must try it if you're in the area.

We went here because our hotel recommended it, and we were checking out the city for the night. The food was mediocre at best. Tasted almost like there was no seasoning. Waiter was very kind, and the place is beautiful. I do not recommend going here for any kinda of food.

My wife and I were making our first visit to Cleveland and chose Il Venetian based on what we'd read on-line. We were delighted. Food, service, and ambience were all impeccable. Our waiter was attentive and informative without being intrusive. The sommelier was in equal parts friendly, unpretentious, and knowledgeable and steered us to an Amarone that was other-worldly.With respect to our food selections, we had the Waygu carpaccio and clam chowder as appetizers; the agnolotti and rigatoni as mains; and the olive cake for dessert. Truly delicious.

What a wonderful place to dine! My girlfriend and I came in to celebrate my birthday. We couldn’t have picked a better spot. It’s set in the downstairs of the Key Bank building. My gps was a little wonky for taking me to the entrance, but luckily there are tons of bell guys around to direct you.All of the staff are super friendly. It’s definitely a fine dining experience. I ordered the vendetta drink. It was pretty strong, just the way I like it. Our calamari was wonderful and I loved their dips. Our dinners were both fantastic. We shared a Budino Al Cioccolato which was a wonderful mix of sweet and sour that we didn’t totally expect. I’ll definitely have that again. They also brought out chocolate covered cream puffs with a birthday candle. That was a sweet little touch all of the staff made sure they told me happy birthday.Overall this was a great place to eat. We will be back soon!

The best italian in cleveland. Alberto and Lydia absolutely crush it in the kitchen!!! Go on Thursday and hear my guy Kasper playing his heart and soul into a couple different instruments. Location and parking is absolutely prime as well. Sister to marble room and boy does she deserve it!
Fancy dining place located in the Marriott hotel. The menu isn’t huge, but there’s plenty to choose from. Free bread and olive oil with spices. I got the veal pasta and the serving was large. It tasted great. The broccolini didn’t have a lot of flavor but it balanced the meal. The second time I went here, I ordered the steak with mashed potatoes. It was well sauced and cooked to my liking. Not my favorite steak, but it helped my craving! The salad was also a table favorite!Lots of people from business in this restaurant. The service is great.

Words cannot explain how much my fiancé and I enjoy this restaurant. This is our second time coming & this time we were celebrating our engagement! They went above and beyond to not only make the evening in extremely nice, but so special for both of us. My fiancé got the charbroiled pork chop & I ordered the executive chef specials, swordfish fettuccine. And WOW. Everything was so fresh & melted right in your mouth. We ended our night be surprised with two glasses of Limoncello & fresh pastry drizzled with melted chocolate. Anyone looking for a place to celebrate or a nice night out, this is the place to be!!

The service was exceptional- I would like to especially call out the general manager, Bob. His attention to detail, ensuring we had a top rate experience did not go unnoticed. I would highly recommend the restaurant for its food & amazing service.
