Partners, Eric Papachristos and Chef Paul King have brought The Venetian back to its glory days. Chef Paul focuses on the classics of neighborhood Italian American cuisine, homemade pasta, steaks & chops straight from the butcher, Craft cocktails, and an impressive Italian & American wine list. A fresh renovation has brought 1950’s elegance of black tin-ceilings, red leather tufted booths, and chandeliers to the South Shore.The Venetian – A Weymouth Tradition, Reimagined.

Lucky to have made a reservation today! Our granddaughter was with us and was delighted! The decorations were incredible. The hostess was working very hard managing, while the bus service was clearing as soon as possible. Had a good meal, great company and conversation!

It is very pretty inside and the bar was nice. However the hostess (older) could not have been ruder and more unwelcoming. She was so uncourteous that it changed the entire experience. She could not have been ruder about the fact that we were early (with no expectation to sit early) and that we were at the bar until our table was ready. Then, we were sat more than thirty minutes after our reservation with no acknowledgement of that. The food was okay but not enjoyed by all. They told us they ran out of carbonara just a few minutes before which wouldn’t haven’t been the case if we sat on time or close to on time for our reservation. Waitstaff was not super friendly. While the atmosphere is cozy, the staff are far from in the holiday spirit. Was hoping for a more cheerful experience.

Saturday January 4. The Venetian is the epitome of Christmas festivities, colorful and decorated tastefully in every possible space. You must make it a family tradition to go during the Christmas season. We ordered the rigatoni à la vodka with shrimp and scallops, pasta was perfect al dente, shrimps were tender and scallops were sweet. Appetizer was eggplant, stacked, olive oil and seasonings, no tomato sauce and was actually delicious enough to order again. Food and service was excellent, so was the wine and cocktails. A favorite restaurant! We will definitely go back again and again. Before you sit, check out which table they want to seat you at and make sure it is not in the back room where they put screaming , out of control kids, which is the parents fault and not The Restaurant. There were two tables, each had three or four children, one table so well behaved and the other table thought they were on the hockey rink. Before a parent complains about my insensitivity, I have five children and five young grandchildren, and they all know the difference from Restaurant behavior to schoolyard rowdiness, with guidance from their parents . I hope the parents at that table read this. Viva La difference’ and Happy New Year.
