The chicken tender plate was amazing. The chicken was delicious. The portions are very generous. The chicken was not at all dry and was tender and juicy. The french fries were also delicious. Not the typical flavorless frozen fries many restaurants serve. The garden salad with grilled chicken was also fresh and well prepared. The owner is very accommodating and the service was excellent. The owner is very welcoming. The pizza looked delicious but our portions were so generous we couldn't eat anything else! read more

Place is delicious one of the best spots I've tried in Arlington near my work. Best chicken parm sandwhich I've ever had in my life. Their chicken cutlets are to die for and there prices are very reasonable for the quality of their food. I definitely recommend this place and I'll be back to try more items ! read more

From my kid: One of the best rosé pasta dishes I've ever had. Deserves a Michelin star. read more

Ordered delivery to our Hotel. The food came fast and was good. The cheese pizza was hot and delicious. The curly fries were plentiful, but a little on the dry side, but overall - good take out meal. Tip: Definitely order through the restaurant directly. Will save you $$ on the delivery. read more

Our go-to place for subs and pizzas and 'fast food' dinners! Great people, great fast food...

Nice reliable local pizza joint. Good alternative for when I'm feeling too lazy to brave the traffic and the typically long wait at Regina's in Medford. Price wise, surprisingly about the same or a little more than Regina's and Regina's does have a better crust and ingredients, but Venice is plenty good enough for what it is. It's nice to be able to order online for pickup (I would never trust delivery to get it here on time plus you have to tip them more, no thanks), and the service fee for online ordering is just a buck. Best of all, they are open until a decent hour (10pm) all week long, unlike the unfortunate post-pandemic trend of everybody closing up by 9, or even 8pm! Crust is nice and crispy on the outside, and not overly thick or bread-like at all which is my main dislike when ordering pizzas. I do wish they used a little more tomato sauce, but thank god the sauce they do use isn't overly sweet. And I appreciate them offering condiments (black pepper, oregano, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, etc.) at the counter so you can season your pizza on your way out the door. PS. One of the other reviewers griped about service here when having a "first date"---why TF would you ever take any date, especially the FIRST date, to a place like this which is clearly focused on take out and delivery??? Doh! read more

They have a good variety of tasty things to choose from. Today I got the steak bomb sub with provolone, pretty good as usual! read more

Everything was great and above average. Great food, order was right, and service was fast and friendly. Highly recommended all around! Nice and warm place to eat for a quick and yummy bite!! read more

Solid local pizza joint with the nicest people. Slices are great, thin, especially good when re-fired for a crunch. The side of chicken parm is also very good. read more

I love this place!!!! Everything is so yummy my favorite is the chicken parm . The staff is always friendly and swlivery is quick.

Buffalo slice was the best i've ever had, service was quick and the staff were great.

I ordered two large pizzas ahead of time. was told 15 minutes. when I arrived, the woman at the counter told me they were almost ready. as they were taking them out of the oven, a friend of theirs came in to pick up his order. he said he needed two pizzas as well and didn't care what was on them. I watched as he gave the two I was waiting for to his friend. Because we had people already at the house, I waited 15 more minutes. They never said a word to me and I will never order from them again. Nor will anyone else I know as what is to say that won't happen to them. There are too many good pizza places around to be treated like that. The food is good, the experience was beyond frustrating. read more

They use way too much sauce in their Alfredo pasta. It's like liquid. And the fries have a weird after taste.

My family really love tuna subs. We have been trying out everywhere. Until we found Venice Italian Kitchen. They have the best tuna subs. Always fresh & light. Great value too. Highly recommend!!! read more

Huge portions! Fresh and tasty!! Ordered two days in a row. Can't wait to go back! Was working nearby. Will definitely go back next time I'm in the area. read more

I ordered the chicken broccoli Alfredo and Buffalo chicken pizza, both of which came at an affordable price as compared to competitors. As for the taste, it is incredible. Might have been the best pasta and pizza I have ever tasted. Beats Domino's and Pizza Hut any day of the week, best restaurant in the city. I drove all the way from Waltham to eat, and I did not regret the drive. I would give 10 stars if possible. The service was also impeccable, the person at the cashier was nice. read more

Ordered for pick-up and they were friendly and timely. We got 2 XL pizzas, the Caliente and Mediterranean. Both super tasty and really good for different reasons. The Mediterranean pizza had grilled eggplant which i've never had on a pizza and it was SO GOOD! The eggplant was slightly smokey and went super well with with the peppers. I would definitely get this again. Caliente has hot peppers and it was definitely spicy and tangy! I also really liked the tomato sauce they put on the pizza and the crust isn't too thick. Even with an XL pizza, each slice held it's shape and didn't require eating it like a taco, if you know what I mean. They have lots of other specialty pizzas with unique flavors that I would definitely come back to try! read more

Really good! Got 3 small pizzas from here, for pick up. It took a little longer than expected, so they offered some drinks, which was super nice. Pizzas were piping hot and tasty. Rave reviews all around- for the Florentine, pepperoni, and pepperoni hot pepper. I really appreciated that the crust was not too thick. Coming from NY, and having lived in New Haven, I prefer thin crusted pizzas. This place delivered on flavor, freshness, and friendliness, lol. read more

Great steak and cheese sub, made perfectly to order. I will try some of the dinner plates soon and see if they are just as good. Very friendly staff! read more

Idk which part of the body they rubbed on my calzone or spit from but I cannot eat this without puking violently. Slept off the first round of sickness, tried again and puked it up...round 3 tommorow. I'll keep you posted. takes like feta for some reason. read more

Good pizza, good salad, but the prices were higher than other places and it isn't necessarily that much better.

Really great food. Delivered very quickly and all the way to Somerville. Would order again.

Delicious pasta dishes, fresh ingredients and friendly staff- I have not eaten there just take out and it's quick delivery

We thoroughly enjoyed our food from Venice Italian Kitchen. We kept it simple with a couple of slices of pepperoni and a side of french fries after a day of traveling. Pizza was delicious with a nice crunch on the bottom and ample toppings. Fries were crispy and HOT as we chose to eat in. As others have indicated, this is a little corner pizza joint with counter service and a couple of tables. This was my second time here and I will be back when I stay in the area. read more

Excellent dinner from Venice Italian Kitchen this evening. I ordered delivery for the Scampi dinner ...with linguini and chicken, and Garlic bread. Delicious,,more than ample portion and cooked perfectly read more

Now THAT is pizza! I had almost given up on finding: well-seasoned tangy sauce, super thin crust that is somehow both crispy and chewy, cheese and toppings all great. They have roasted eggplant which is miles better than fried and the mushrooms are meaty and fresh. Got delivery thru Grub Hub and it was extra fast. Thank you!!! I needed this on a cranky Tuesday. read more

I am ashamed that I took so long to order from Venice. Everything I've had so far has been *chef's kiss*. My new go-to for pizza. I love that they sell slices. Everyone behind the counter is very kind and they all wear masks. Even covering their noses! Heading to get dinner from there now :) read more

The food is very good but the delivery is extremely slow!!! When they first opened they started out strong but the last few months delivery slow and the tiramisu shrank about quarter of the size it used to be. It's not worth waiting an hour for delivery on a weekday night. read more

We were in the area from Detroit and decided to order from here based on people at the hotels recommendations. We were NOT disappointed!!! The food was AMAZING! The price was VERY reasonable and the portions were huge. If you are in the area be sure to pay them a visit. We had the lasagna, a few different pastas and some cheese pizza. If we lived closer, we would visit often. Thanks for a great meal!!! read more

Awesome pizza, some of the best in the area. They have delicious sauce and fair prices for their meals. I expected a little more from their chicken parm, but this place is solid. read more

Have been ordering here since I found this place and it's become my comfort food. The price is fair, it always tastes delish and the portions are big read more

Great food and service. Love their pizza and the pizza crust is one of the best around.

We were looking for a pizza from a new place because we were tired of the same old hit and miss when ordering from this place, or that place. Venice had some good reviews, it wasn't far from us here in West Somerville, and the menu looked full with a lot of choices. Are we glad we did...the Large Deluxe, fries and onion rings, we loved it. We've ordered four weeks in a row and Venice has become our Friday a much anticipated tradition. Their food is delicious!! read more

Baked ziti was OK, they just put parmasean cheese on top of pasta and marinara sauce. But the delivery was very quick.

I would give a 0 star if they had it, went in to get some pizza from this shop. When i opened my pizza box i noticed a long hair across my pizza like melted into it. When i showed the man (egyptian man) he said i was lying and i put it on the pizza and told me to leave. not sure how i managed to plant a hair on the pizza when it looked like it was baked into it?? would not recommend going here because if you have a complaint they will yell at you and tell you to leave! read more

So far, my favorite place to grab a slice in east arlington or the surrounding cities. If I recall correctly they are about 2.75 for cheese

WE are SO HAPPY THAT VENICE OPENED RIGHT UP THE STREET FROM US! The restaurant personnel are always very pleasant, patient, and provide great food, pizzas are our favorite! Our delivery experience has always been wonderful, food still hot, no contact and always on time. The staff is always masked; restaurant clean, and great food; it is definitely our new favorite and pricing is very good; keep up the good work and we will be back for our "Friday Night Pizza" delivery. We still have so many other options to order; calzones look awesome! Great little cafe with good parking on Mass. Avenue or Orvis Road... read more

I love their Mediterranean pizza - it's a bit different from Mediterranean pizzas at other places, because it has roasted eggplant (yum!) and doesn't have any olives (which I don't like anyway, so that works for me). Consistently good pizza. read more

Great staff, food, and value. Besides delicious pizza, wraps, and dinners I love their Pear Salad (Mixed greens, pear, cranberry, goat cheese, cherry tomatoes, with lemon pepper vinaigrette dressing) and Coleslaw! Delicious! read more

I was in Arlington for 2 weeks, house sitting. During that time, I had 3 deliveries, and each was outstanding. Pizzas were among the best I've had, locally. read more
