Cafe Venice is open daily, serving lunch six days a week and dinner every night. For lunch, treat yourself to a Caesar, wedge, or Mediterranean salad or try one of our sandwiches, from a grilled chicken caprese to our own take on a reuben. At dinner, you'll find exotic tapas such as escargot and duck potstickers, along with entrees like crab-stuffed flounder, filet mignon, and veal medallion.

Our dishes boast homemade sauces, and our desserts include vanilla bean creme brulee and keylime pie. We serve a variety of beer, wine and liquor and have recently expanded our wine list to include a reasonably priced Specialty Reserve list. We change this list from time to time, as certain things become more or less available to us, and we would love to hear your suggestions.

Excellent food and service!! There was live music which was a little loud and interferred with our conversation but all in all we would go back again just not on a Friday night.

Fabulous place to dine in Venice. We were treated like family and it was our first visit. Our waiter Jeffery is one of greatest waiters in the business. He truly loves his job and customers.Our group all wanted to hug him. Hats off to the owners to a job well done.

My husband and I went to the Venice Cafe for Thanksgiving dinner, and we were not disappointed. It was our first time eating there, and the food was delicious, wait staff was friendly and the restaurant was lovely. We can't wait to go back.

Cafe Venice with Kay and her team were phenomenal! We were going to be hosting a weekend large family gathering event for my Mom’s 91st Birthday, but because of COVID the group went from 48 to only 13 with just two weeks prior to our big celebration. Kay was extremely flexible; the large tent planned in Mom’s backyard was appropriately downsized but still beautiful and festive complete with lights, the big dinner where we were going to have the entire restaurant for our large party was switched to the more intimate Wine Room for a beautiful venue, and instead of her team catering a large breakfast

Fantastic food!!
Fantastic service!!
Remek was amazing!! He had great recommendations and honored our choices.
Lobster Flatbread and Pot Roast dinner was amazing!!
The Rombauer Chardonnay was the perfect choice to take us from the appetizer through the main course onto the Creme Brulé.
Remek will make you the best espresso ever!! (made with love❤) Add a Sambuca or take it a step beyond and have a Black Sambuca neat!
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience!!

First impression was an A plus experience. Family in Venice from Massachusetts I drove up from Fort Myers. The staff was not over friendly. Well knowledged punctual and fun. My meal was amazing meat was cooked to perfection greens were blanched just the way I liked them and who doesn't enjoy a great mashed potatoes seasoning was just right. I can't remember the last time I was this please with my dining experience. Please keep up the good work because I'm going to be telling everyone about you!!! Special thank you to our waitress Michelle hope the rest of the staff is just as great as you are.

Located on Venice avenue at the heart of downtown Venice. It offers a friendly ambiance and live entertainment. The main entrance is located in the corridor between stores and not by Venice av. There is an exit door on Venice avenue and if you happen to enter that way, you will be waiting long time as the hostess station in located by the middle of the restaurant.
The menu is diverse but their specialty is seafood. You can order sirloin to be cooked to your liking. I had duck sautéed in pomegranate and was delicious. My wife had the mix grill and loved the different types of meats including scallops
