We dined at the Old Venice Pizza Company on June 7, 2018. We ate early so no wait and extremely quick service! We had the Buffalo Kickin Chicken Pizza ! It was wonderful! It has a a little kick but not too spicy! Great food and great service!! Highly recommend this place!!!!
We have been dining here at least weekly for a year now. This is the absolute best Italian restaurant in this city. I have never had a bad meal at Old Venice, even their chicken salad is awesome. Lasagne is better than any I have had in Italy and so good I don’t make mine (which was the best) anymore. You can’t go wrong with the food here but I sure miss the beignets!

I was really impressed by the food. The crawfish rolls were really good, and the pecan salad was awesome. My son had pizza and I had pasta - both were very tasty. We will definitely be going back.
I really enjoyed dining here with my family. The staff was also good and supportive. The food is very tasty and delicious. Must try whenever near this place.
Really enjoyed dinner with my husband! The waitress was very attentive and sweet! The house salad was huge and very good. We had The chicken Tuscany and the Great White pizza. Both were excellent!!! Overall we had a fabulous time!
Just added gluten-free pasta and pizza! Now you can have nearly all entres! I have celiac and have had no problems. The infusion of creole and Italian is brilliant.
I was leery of the Alfredo based sauce on the chicken Tuscany pizza but it was wonderful. The sauce was not overwhelming and the balsamic glaze was a perfect combination. Highly recommended!
Service lagged a bit, but once we ordered, the food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Many dishes on the menu and I've tried a lot of them. THE dish that keeps me returning is eggplant parmesan. Seriously good. From the menu: "Oven Baked Stuffed Eggplant Parmesan $12.00
Seasoned breaded eggplant, seasoned ricotta cheese, homemade marinara, smoked gouda cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, oven baked until golden, served with angel hair and choice of side."
Reading the review by the displeased "Party of 12" and their dining neighbors, brings back nightmarish memories of working at TGI Fridays years ago and dealing with parties such as that. That poor server; some people just can't act right in public. Hah! Anyways, onto Old Venice itself. Some of the best pizza in town. I like the Mona Lisa, but I love the Fajita/Quesadilla pizza. If you want to be a real fatty, get a cup of the crab soup too.
To the party of 15, thats a very plausible rule and makes sense especially to those that come out and make such a commotion run your server crazy act ghetto and dont know how to tip 20% for putting up with your bs. Sincerely the table next to you that YOU caused an unpleasant experience for. This place is amazingly fresh and exciting and the people here are awesome! Dont let insane people like this b*%/h bring you down! You rock!
The food here is great and the staff is always friendly. I love the mozzarella sticks and the pizza....
Absolutely phenomenal. Everything from the shrimp appetizers to the blue sapphire cocktail was above all expectations. My new all time favorite Italian restaurant!
One of the best restaurants in the Memphis area. We went to celebrate a birthday as a group and our experience was great. Although we had a reservation however, it was not fully packed when we entered. The place has an upscale vibe although it’s actually a humble and pocket friendly place. We started with some cocktail and appetizers. The deviled egg and another dish ( I forgot the name) that we ordered were both tasty. In the main course I had Rasta Pasta which was absolutely delicious. The portion size was perfect for a single person ( I could not finish and had to take the left over back in home). It was filling, heavy and very tasty. One of my friends ordered a pizza and that was good too. Overall, the food was great. In dessert we asked them to serve a piece of cheese cake for the birthday boy. They decorated the slice pretty well and served it with a candle. The ambiance was very cool and cozy. Highly recommended! I would love to go back.
Celebrated a birthday here and the food was great! From French toast to Alfredo they have something here for everyone in the family! The staff was very attentive and the atmosphere is welcoming. Thanks Venice Kitchen!
This is a very appealing restaurant on the outside. Pulling into the driveway made me think I was in Italy. The place was very crowded with a short wait for a table. The inside is a bit crowded, lots of tables. There is a pretty bar area, too. The part that was difficult was how loud it was. Everything seems to echo. It started to rain heavily while we were inside. The sound of the rain hitting the tin roof was deafening. Luckily, that didn't last too long.
The waitress was excellent
She was quick with the serving and returned to the table to check on us many times.
The spinach stuffed shells were very good
The shells were hot but the spinach inside was cold
It would have tasted better if the entire entree was hot. The spaghetti and meatballs were very good.
If you don't mind eating in a very loud place, it is worth going.
The prices are reasonable.
We enjoyed our visit, our food and drinks were served promptly. Our server was extremely attentive and visited our table several times. I highly recommend the crawfish rolls and the crawdaddy pizza.
My husband and I had a wonderful dining experience. We were there today during their brunch. Their drinks were delicious, we had the Bloody Mary. I had the shrimp and grits, let me just say I have had them all over and theirs are the best I have ever had. My husband had the eggs Benedict, their hollandaise sauce is delicious.
Look for a relaxing atmosphere, great food, great service, and just a good time in general? Venice Kitchen is the place you need to visit! The staff was friendly, informative, and speedy. The food was delicious, and the options on the menu were endless. Would be a perfect date night dinner or Sunday morning brunch spot! Highly recommend the chicken Alfredo! It was creamy, well seasoned, and the portion was enough to eat some now and some later! Definitely will be back!
The food here is amazing!! We got chicken parm and stuffed shells. It was so good. I wish they gave you free bread but regardless still deserves 5 stars.

So me and my mini me needed to grab a snack before going grocery shopping. (Never shop on an empty stomach!) So we decided to stop by Venice Kitchen and grab some fries.
Their cheese fries are THE BEST!!! And to the man at Kroger in aisle 5....I'm sorry. I'm lactose intolerant, but those cheese fries are just too good to resist!
Enjoy Memphis!
I had an awesome Solo Date Nite. While my fam was doing their own thing, I sat at the bar and dined with other patrons. Lauren and Haley took very good care of us. The bartenders were sweethearts. I ordered the cheese sticks, side salad, Rasta Pasta, Old fashioned, and Dauo Pessimist Red Wine blend. Everything was to my liking. It was all satisfying and reasonably priced. See y’all again on Sat! 😉
We had a phenomenal time at Venice Kitchen! It was my first time there and I was thoroughly pleased with everything- the food was seasoned well, our server, Jared, was wonderful, and the atmosphere was nice and cozy! I’ve never encountered such a friendly greeter as the one there! She had a big, welcoming smile and a bubbly personality!! My experience was fantastic!! I’m looking forward to returning soon!!!
