    We enjoyed a really nice birthday dinner! They sat us right away, with a nice view of the city. The waitstaff was outstanding: from filling our glasses or clearing our table. Very attentive! We even stayed for a nightcap at the bar and they were every bit as nice and attentive as the waitstaff!

    Do they have a new chef? The quality of the dishes had drastically decreased and the prices have risen. I took visiting family members and was embarrassed.

    In our group of 7, one fish entree was undercooked. Server apologized and did not charge for it. Everything else was up to Venezia's high standards. We appreciated our server's attention to adjust the AC to a comfortable level.

    Venezia Boston never disappoints. We die here several times every year and always on our wedding anniversary. This year we decided to go for lunch, which is always a good value. I had the Sicilian seafood salad, which had fresh tuna, a generous portion of lobster meat, and two jumbo shrimp. It was a great meal. And all a while we drank in the view of the Boston skyline over Dorchester Bay. I believe Benicia has the best ocean side dining this side of Boston.
