    One of the fine dining experiences in Cleveland. The Marriott hotel is very nice, but I stay at the Marriott when I come to Cleveland because of this restaurant.

    From the ambience to the service and the food - a perfect place for a team holiday lunch. To cap it off, one of the best tiramisu desserts ever!

    We really love this place, the bone-in veal parm chop is one of my favorite dishes in Cleveland. The calamari is perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside and super tender inside. I could live on the bread service, it is delicious. The service and management are top notch here, it is a well executed fine dining experience.

    Husband had the lamb and I had the sea bass dish. Both were very good. Chef stopped by around tables to follow up which was nice.

    The dining experience at Il Venetian was outstanding. The food was incredible, from the meatballs as an appetizer, to the tiramisu for dessert. Every course was excellent and the service was top-notch as well. The filet mignon was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had anywhere. Great atmosphere and a wonderful experience for our anniversary from the moment we stepped through the doors. Will certainly be returning for our next special night out or occasion.
