   Slow checkin as they played with 2 laptops Waitress talk really fast and was hard to understand. Drink service very slow and one drink delayed because out of vermouth Food was pretty good for 2 and so so for two Ambiance seemed more bar like than elegant dining. No real warmth It was high priced but not super expensive…nice red wine list by glass but not real good for white. We were really anticipating the evening and were disappointed. Fortunately we were with good friends and enjoyed our evening. Doubt we would ever return They did deduct a round of drinks because of the delays. We did not ask for it and never complained about anything

    Venetian had an amazing ambiance, from the decor to my place setting everything was as you’d expect it to be. The menu was filled with a lot of options to choose from. I ate the seafood pasta. The dish had a really good spice and all the seafood was well prepared. I will say the staff was prompt and very polite. This place is definitely on the return list. I don’t remember my waitresses but she was probably one of the best I have had. The only thing that I will say that wasn’t appropriate there was a tall male manager a very slender gentleman. This man walked the floor checking and observing the floor. Well I found it odd he spoke to the customers at the surrounding tables then made it past my table with no greeting. Although his actions were unsettling the restaurant is still a worth while experience.

    went for second annual birthday dinner. had exact same thing; roasted beet salad and long bone veal chop parmesan. DELICIOUS! Service was excellent; water glasses refilled often, drinks orders taken when needed and food just really quite good. This is not a complaint but a small suggestion; the music was just a touch loud. There was a flutist there and he was excellent. Just needed to speaker volume turned down a notice. For a thursday the bar and lounge were crowded and the dining area maybe 40%. Guess people are out and about compared to a year ago. :) The place isn't inexpensive but portions are large and very good. A great place. Parking at hotel entry was $15.00. Not expensive for a downtown venue but did hope there would be some sort of parking validation; there wasnt. Definitely going back and have to force myself try something different

    We were here to celebrate a birthday, and have a romantic evening out. Our server, Aiden, was attentive without being intrusive. The service he provided was absolutely phenomenal. Our meal was well presented and delicious! This was my second trip to Il Venetian, and it will remain on my list for future visits.

    The food and service at Il Venetian are excellent. My wife and I celebrated our anniversary and could not be more pleased. The fresh pasta, grilled octopus, and chicken parmigiana were stand outs. The cocktails were top of the heap. Our waitress, Gina, was fantastic. I am not crazy about the restaurant’s layout. Tables are a too close to the bar so when you’re eating you look at the backs of folks at the bar. Jazz music in the background worked. Overall a great place for a special dinner.

    We continue to find it disappointing that valet parking is the only option for parking when dining, and the charge is $15.00, plus gratuity.

    I had a friend in from out of town and wanted to take her somewhere special for her 50th birthday. We had a delicious meal and a fantastic time. Aiden, our server, was incredible and perfectly attentive. The sommelier, Mark, selected fantastic wines for us and the manager, Robert, made sure the celebration was perfect. I would highly recommend this restaurant!!

    Beautiful, elegant restaurant. Everything was perfect-from the first sip of wine to getting the last few bites of our fantastic meals boxed up in order to get to Playhouse Square in time for a performance. Everyone was very courteous and attentive. Great spot for downtown dining and cocktails.

    We were put in the back corner near the kitchen when other tables were available. Did not move us when I asked for a different table. There were many tables open, and still open when we left. Will not go back after being treated like that.

    I have to give this restaurant A for effort but a C+ for execution. The service was wonderful and very attentive. The fresh pasta is very good. My Venetian salad was overdressed, and my partner's Cesear was too heavy on the mayonnaise with not enough garlic and anchovies. My partner absolutely loved his veal agnolotti and would highly recommend, while the seafood pasta the seafood was a little overcooked. The lemon cheesecake dessert was superb. We will definitely try this restaurant again because they are striving to have a better dining experience than the majority of restaurants in Cleveland.

    I've dined here multiple times and the most recent wasn't great. We had drinks, apps and caesar salads - all which took a longer than normal time to get. The Calamari was subpar and so were the salads, however the grilled Octopus was great. I'll give it another shot but service needs to step up their speed.
