Neighbourhood gem

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.

Chicken broccoli ziti was the worst I’ve had. Not the usual that I normally get from here. Chicken was overcooked and cut much smaller, not normal chunks of chicken in it and also came out in a bowl of oil. Garlic knots also were not as good as usual. Much smaller. Espresso martini was AWFUL. Completely watered down. Husbands Sunday gravy was good and daughter’s chicken parm was good. Overall disappointed. And was really looking forward to this meal.

The decorations were on point, great holiday vibe. The food and cocktails underwhelming, especially at the price. My espresso martini was all vodka and lacked the creaminess it deserves. Our meals were lackluster in taste. Portions were good size. I wish my meal tasted better.

Everything was wonderful! The food was delicious! The restaurant was decorated beautifully. We loved that it was child friendly and our waiter (Jacob) really made sure to make it special for our children. We would love to come back!

Meatballs were the best ive ever had!!!Unfortunately i ddnt see anything on the dessert menu that caught my eye but the drinks were so good too!! I had The Best Mai Tai I’ve had in a while and the server just super attentive and didn’t make us feel rushed - cant wait to go back

The holiday decorations really made the place pop, highly impressed. The food....Outstanding! Started with the Garlic knots and when I say I could have multiple servings of these I mean it, absolutely amazing. The Chicken Alfredo as a main was out of this world. The holiday drinks were also so flavorful. 10/10 recommend, The Venetian is a must try for everyone

We had reservations on a Monday night due to the high demand because of the Christmas Pop up. The restaurant was beautifully decorated. People were taking walking around the taking pictures throughout the restaurant. We were sat at our table right away. Our waitress was very nice. We started with Garlic Knots which we both liked. I had the Bolognese which I enjoyed very much. My girlfriend had the braised short ribs which she also enjoyed. If you can get reservations we both recommend it.
