Located right near a public entrance to one of the beaches of Venice, Florida, Pilot House is a…read moregreat spot to get a quick lunch whether you're enjoying the beach or there on business to do a building repair bid. Albeit this visit was for the second purpose, Pilot House seemed like the perfect spot to stop in my cargo pants and work shirt :) I enjoyed a cold brew coffee (gotta have that caffeine for the drive back), bacon cheeseburger and fries. The lettuce & tomato tasted fresh, and they customized the onions away. The cheese was only American cheese and the bacon had a nice crisp, plus I added bbq sauce. Besides pretty solid beachfront burgers, Pilot House doubles as a souvenir shop with Venice FL branded merch such as koozies and sweatshirts when you want to bring gifts for the folks back home. The building itself is pretty cool with its high pitched concrete shell roof (yes I look at those things). Plus, again, it's steps from the beach and next to free city parking.

September 27, 2025 - 2 for lunch takeout…read more Never been here and somebody volunteered to pick up and PAY!!!! Doing 10 hours of guard duty so was looking forward to the lunch. When I ordered seemed a "little" expensive ($9.75 to start and then $2.45 for Tofu +++ for quinoa and other healthy topping?) , but I must say as a unethical selfish vegan (not about the animal and its all about MY health) or more aptly a Nutritarian eater, there were plenty of components and ingredients for a healthy meal. I would have gone for black, or garbanzo beans or even peas??? for sure but no vegetable proteins on the chart?? Ordering is a bit of a pain. My co-worker who is a regular there says most folks order a signature wrap and he said some comments about my a la carte order? So for that I might suggest a Signature Whole Food Plant Based (WFPB) Wrap or Salad and the 5% of us who are vegan, vegetarian, WFPB, Nutritarian etc could just click a button? The sandwich was very good the way I ordered it, and it was prepared exactly and perfectly. Fresh ingredients and the wrap was nice. I will have to check this out in person at some point!!!

Review for Smoothie King - Venice, FL…read more I just moved to Florida from Texas and was excited to try the Smoothie King here in Venice, since I used to go all the time back home. Unfortunately, my experience was really disappointing. I ordered 2 smoothie bowls, which cost me $20.89 even after using $6 in Smoothie Bucks, and the containers weren't even half full. The pictures I've posted show exactly what I mean. In Texas, every bowl I ordered was filled to the top of the container, so this was a real letdown. For the price, I expected the same level of quality and consistency I'm used to from Smoothie King. Instead, it felt like I paid full price for a half-serving. Not a great first impression of this location. I really hope management takes this feedback seriously because Smoothie King is usually one of my favorites--but I'll be thinking twice before coming back here again.

My kid loves strawberry syrup and strawberry pearls, they pop in your mouth and are so good! Service: SO good! They were friendly, prompt and answered all our questions. Vibes: cute and simple! I also love how clean it was. Overall, 10/10. We'll definitely be back and already have local relatives who'll be back as well!
