Went last night and was honestly shocked at how good my family's experience was here. We were the last people to arrive, as it was pretty late. Everyone we met was really nice, all seemed to have an Italian accent (completely understandable!)... great paintings adorn the wall. Love the way they laid the thin bricks on the wall for decor, too. Bathrooms were clean and functional. The free bread wasn't great but we were glad to have it. Everything else was spectacular. I had an arugula salad that had a really nice oil-lemon dressing. I do wish the menu mentioned the cucumbers.... hate them and had to remove them. My daughter split the Rissotto with my wife. I finished it off. That tasted so awesome. I'm wondering if they used MSG. I also had Eggplant Rolatini, and almost ordered a sediment one (but I ain't no millionaire). They never rushed us out though we were clearly there till closing time. Would definitely return. read more

What another wonderful dinner. Our wait staff was so engaged with our party!! The food was outstanding! Including the fettuccine Alfredo.. Have loved every time we have been there! read more

After spending a week eating mostly mediocre meals in Cape May, we decided to venture to Wildwood and try some Italian food at Venezia. I'm glad we did. We started with the calamari and a Caesar salad. Both were 5 stars. The calamari was nice and tender and I loved the heavy dose of Parmesan they put on the salad. For mains, we got the gnocchi, fettuccine Alfredo and the lobster ravioli special. I'd say the fettuccine was the weak link of the meal. It was ok, but not as flavorful as it could have been. The other two dishes were very good. To finish the meal off, we shared a cannoli and a limoncello bomba. The cannoli may be the best I've ever had. Thank you Venezia for giving us a fine meal on vacation! read more

The food is delicious! BYOB. The seafood ravioli is a must. Service is so warm. They can absolutely improve the bread though - not great especially for an Italian restaurant. Nice for date night or family dinner out! read more

My husband and I had dinner there last Saturday and is was a pleasant experience. Food was delicious and the entire staff was very accommodating and friendly. Our server was exceptional! Highly recommend if you are in the area. You won't be disappointed. Italian music played while you were dining. BYOB read more

Food. Bad. Sausage and broccoli rabe appt was a joke. 4 tiny pieces of overcooked rubbery sausage. Bread was pathetic. It's an Italian restaurant, at least have decent bread. Not here. Pescatore was so salty I sent it back and refused alternatives. Osso Buco sauce was like unflavored water. There were maybe 6-7 table occupied at 730. Now I know why nobody was there. Skip Venezia. It's not good read more

Warm and welcoming, love that it's BYOB. We asked for the music to be lowered and they were very accommodating. Amazingly sweet, attentive and pleasant server, Camilia (thank you)! Had the sausage and broccoli rabe appetizer - delicious. We had the chicken Marsala with shrimp and the Chicken Venezia - both very good. Will be back for all the above! read more

When you're here your family. Oh wait... But really ...it did seem like the surrounding tables knew each other. This was unique in its own right. Authentic staff as they were actually from Italy. Food: my folks and my sister liked their dishes. The veal was delicious. I must have ordered the wrong thing as my dish was simple. Before we left we got free shots of lemoncello which was a nice touch to the end of an Italian meal. read more

The food looks great. I chatted with some guests as they left. Said she loved the lobster special and here all the time. This is an incredibly romantic restaurant in Wildwood NJ. The staff are very pleasant and the waitress looked the part wearing a Italian looking scarf, so cute. But the best thing is they are open year round and have some nice little tables right outside the window if it's not too cold. I ordered the Greek salad. I didn't realize it was everything but the romaine lettuce and they gladly gave me some. I would definitely try one of their other dishes next time. read more

Venezia - Greek salad. Tomatoes weren't the best but I'm used to organic ones. Cheese was delicious! Served with a balsamic glaze. I prefer plain vin. - Italian Near Me - Wildwood, New Jersey

My husband and ai were tired of "shore food". We heard about Venezia and made a reset. Food was excellent! We both roughly recommend it.

Quality food and excellent service from start to finish. The Ossobuco special was exquisite. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and our server Adina treated us like familia. read more

This was a nice restaurant but it was a long weekend and we had to wait over 40 minutes to be seated even with a reservation, which I confirmed well before arriving. The service and food were great, would recommend for a more upscale dining experience in the area. read more

Venezia - Risotto - Italian Near Me - Wildwood, New Jersey

One of the best in Wildwood. I had a great family meal here on a recent trip to Wildwood. Our waitress and hostess were very friendly and it helped make for a nice dinner. There is Italian music playing in the background but it wasn't very loud, which was a nice addition to the atmosphere. The meal was excellent. We had appetizers, main courses, and desert. 5/5 on the arugula salad and calamari appetizers as well as the crème brulee and chocolate moose cake deserts. The main courses were filling but I thought my veal parmesan could have had better texture. For drinks - keep in mind this is a BYOB restaraunt, so plan accordingly. For non-alcoholic drinks - I think the soda choice could be better. I wanted a ginger ale but the closest they had was lemonade. All in all, I had a great meal here and like I said before, this is one of the best in Wildwood. read more

This is the best Italian Restaurant I've ever visited! The food came so quickly because of how hardworking the staff is. The food had great quality and fitted perfectly with the amazing scenery in the restaurant! There's beautiful paintings and decor paired with amazing music that isn't too overpowering. The food, ahh yes the food, was impeccable, I got the fettuccini Alfredo and it tasted great. With my food I also got an amazing Tiramisu, the staff, as they knew it was my birthday, put a candle on and celebrated it with me! The workers on staff were amazing and astonished me with their kindness and enthusiasm. Thank you so much Dani and Magdi for the amazing service and hospitality you provided. Please come to this amazing restaurant and support!! read more

First time dining and great spot for classic Italian staples. We had a group of 5 and were seated promptly. Our waiter was very attentive and enthusiastic. He was awesome! We ordered eggplant rollatini, calamari, and caeser salad. All was excellent except the rollatini - the menu said cinnamon was added to it, but it was way too much cinnamon. Definitely would not recommend. The calamari was crisp and the Caesar salad was perfect. For entree, we had a mix of chicken, pasta, and fish dishes. Everyone licked their plates clean. The ambience is a little off - I can't tell what it is. But definitely would be back. read more

Very nice place with authentic staff right from Italy! Two couples and we made a reservation which I would recommend. Short wait for a table and seated nicely. Place is busy and popular. Apps were great as were main dishes with one served cold; had to reheat. Overall Highly recommended. read more

Well - let me just say, a great meal in great times. We had a party of 11 people, so obviously not easy to manage, but our waitress did a great job. As a BYOB we brought about 10 bottles of wine and I think we opened most of them. I had the veal special which was really outstanding. You know a place is special when not one person of the 11 said their meal was not good. In fact everyone raved about their food. The service was outstanding and consistent with out being overwhelming. I would highly recommend! Bring a nice bottle of wine and you are going to get a great meal to go with it! read more

Going before the summer season, we were able to just walk in and sit. The food and service was so good that we'd wait for seating too! We were met with smiles and seated in an area that our little ones could be themselves. We ordered family style of course! Three pasta dishes and the Osso Buco were more than satisfying. It was so good, I had the Branzino for dessert! read more

This was our first time visiting here.The food was great and the service was great. It's a beautiful restaurant with soft music playing. I enjoyed this place. Will visit again. read more

We had a great dinner at Venezia. The Linguine Pescatore was delicious and my wife loved her Risotto Primavera. The wait staff were excellent. We are going back. read more

We are so happy to have a new restaurant in our rotation this summer. Venezia's seafood and pasta are so delicious and fresh. We had a reservation and it seemed to be the last vacant table in the place. The dining room was buzzing and filled with happy groups. A few perks of Venezia is that it's a little on the nicer side so there were no fussy children around us distracting us from our meal! There are plenty of other places in WW for a family friendly experience and I like taking a break from that once in a while. Also, it's BYO! Bring your own is always a perk for us since we usually enjoy a bottle or two with dinner down the shore. My family returned twice already this summer and the season isn't quite over yet, we will be back! read more

Venezia - Linguini fra diavolo - Italian Near Me - Wildwood, New Jersey

Poor management, we made an 8pm reservation and still took over an hour to be seated. There were many with reservations waiting. This shows they either overbook to make as much money as possible or have poor management. Why accept reservations if you can't honor them read more

I'm not sure why it's rated so highly. The food was OK but really nothing special. The restaurant is nicely decorated, service is quick but our server was new and really didn't make any good recommendations. I would not return here. read more

Food was incredible! I had the chicken Venezia, my wife had lobster ravioli. I'm not used to BYOB so we missed out on that, bring a bottle of wine with you. read more

First and foremost absolutely delicious, the hostesses and waiting staff are super friendly & attentive, always coming back to check on us to make sure we were taken care of. The menu was small in stature but bold, the ingredients, fresh. And the desserts were outstanding I personally recommend the cannoli and the NY cheesecake, dressed elegantly with drizzles of warm fudge chocolate and garnished with fresh strawberry and finally powdered sugar. And not the mention the music they played was great. All together an excellent experience defiantly got my moneys worth. read more

Very good Italian food. The atmosphere of the restaurant feels very authentic and professional. The wait staff was warm and welcoming and ready to answer any question we had about the menu. The bread was fresh and warm. The prosciutto wrapped artichoke hearts were delicious, salty and tender. I ordered the chicken franchise with linguine. The chicken was coated perfectly and the sauce was incredible. Our waitress offered us limoncello to try on the house after our meal which made us feel at home and it was delicious! read more

Awesome service ! The food was amazing as well I would recommend this restaurant to friends and family read more

Loud atmosphere, the food was mediocre. My wife got a scallop and pasta dish which came with one scallop. The restaurant has difficult parking which you have to pay for. read more

It was Memorial Day so me and my father decided to try VENEZIA, a relatively new dining offering in Wildwood and we were pleasantly surprised. Located at 4801 Pacific on the corner, the number is 609-600-3322 and it is a completely renovated interior that is warm, inviting and friendly. Because it was a holiday, they seemed short staffed, but our waiter Milo was excellent and did a great job! I had the Caesar ($12.95) and the Fettuccine Venezia ($34.95). My father had the Arugula Salad ($12.95) and for the main course he had the Shrimp Fettuccine which if I recall was the same price as mine and we were both happy with our selections! He had a one Expresso and I opted for water. During our meal I had Iced Tea and he had Pellegrino. Our waiter also gave us a complimentary drink which was a nice touch to a very good meal. The place seems brand new as I was traveling from California to New Jersey and the overall experience, meal, service and cost was far below the value. It was a great night with my father! The dress code is casual, but would recommend a collared shirt and dress pants. Wildwood has changed greatly from my days coming to the Crest as a kid and the whole area is just bristling in new construction and renovation. If you are vacationing or visiting the Wildwood's this summer, I highly recommend as the menu is great and this is a BYOB venue. When in Wildwood, check out VENEZIA! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more
