Always the best, freshest, prepared to order ingredients around. Pizzas are top notch, order a two or three topping pie to savor the flavors. Lasagna like momma makes but without the flying spatulas and insistence on third servings...

The service and the servers are amazing. Amazing family feel, the food was good but not showstopping. I will definitely return for a date night! We got the calamari, scallop arrabiata, baked ravioli, and cheese cake... all good!

This is the best damn pizza I have had in years. I didn't think people made pies like this anymore. My faith in humanity is restored. Now I have to come back to San Diego more often just for the Venetian.
