It was a busy Jazz Festival evening but we were seated and served relatively quickly by a very pleasant and efficient server. The food was great and the price was reasonable.

I ordered Calamari & a Rustico Pizza Both were good, not great. My wife ordered a salad which we shared, that was good. She also ordered a gluten-free pizza. Said it the crust was like cardboard and the worst gluten-free crust she ever had. She couldn’t eat it. She scraped the toppings off and ate that. The waitress was very kind and deducted $$ from our bill. We would probably not eat there again.

Server was very good, place was very busy due to the Jazz fest. Pizza my husband had could have been cooked a little more, the crust was mushy not firm. All other items were good in our party of 4

This was our first time dinning here. It was recommended to me by my chef friends. We were seated quickly and the place was clean and had a great feeling. We ordered an app and main course. I had the pasta and it was very good. My wife ordered the chicken parm, the piece of chicken was very big and cooked to a nice golden brown, unfortunately it was so big that it was “Woody” and my wife could not eat it. The server was very understanding and offer to get my wife something else. Unfortunately we had reservations for part 2 of our date night and did not have enough time. They took it off the bill which we appreciated it. We will be back and give them another try.

Great food. Excellent service. Cannot ask for much more. Veneto consistently delivers outstanding meals and fine service. The ambiance is so pleasant. And servers like Adam and Aliyah cap off the menu!
