best steak in town guaranteed service was amazing loved the atmosphere alcohol was great as always love the feel of the place

Venice Steakhouse continues to prove that a great restaurant experience is about so much more than what lands on the plate. And for the record, it has officially earned my vote as the best local spot in Venice. First, Joseph deserves his own round of applause for creating the magical Tomatini Martini. Unexpected, perfectly balanced, a little sweet, a little sexy, and dangerously easy to order a second. This cocktail has officially become part of the reason to come back. Then there's Madeleine and Jess, who delivered exactly the kind of service you want at a great neighborhood steakhouse. Warm, intuitive, completely on point, and genuinely welcoming without ever hovering. They made the entire evening feel effortless. Venice Steakhouse, you're quickly becoming a habit. And I'm perfectly fine with that. read more

Amazing artisanal cocktails, dessert, really highly recommend overall. My favorites are the hamachi, the rib eye cap, fries... too many to name read more

Calling all martini lovers! This is a must-try if you love martinis, and they have hand stuffed blue cheese olives! Deliciously smooth, perfectly dirty, one that will top your list of best martinis in LA! Came for Happy Hour and sat on the patio and it did not disappoint! The burger was incredible, wedge salad packed with flavor, and I'm still thinking about the dipping sauce for the fries. There is a paid lot in back that was $16 for 4 hours. They also have valet. read more

We were a party of 5 and shared it all.we started with their delicious bread with two types of butter. The wedge salad had beautiful veggies and fresh herbs on it. Our main meal was three steaks. We ordered the green peppercorn sauce.Homemade Mac n cheese, broccoli with some type of spicy sauce on it. None of us liked it. The frittes had a dipping sauce.Our server was great. It is extremely loud in the restaurant be ready to yell at who you are with. read more

The parking situation sucks here. I would recommend uber. But also if you go in spot hero, you can maybe get a reservation for parking in the lot. The service was great. It was a bit loud on a friday night, but overall it was good. The himachi was fresh, the steaks were cooked perfectly. They made a fabulous espresso martini, I had a sip and it was ideal. read more

My fiancé and I went here on Valentine's Day. It was the best dinner we've had in Venice, and it's not even close. Started out with cocktails which were good, what you'd expect. The bread was like seared sourdough slices served with two different amazing butters -- barrate butter and some green one that was delicious. Seriously some of the best bread I've ever had. 10/10. Then we shared a plate of scallops. They cut like butter, we're so flavorful, and the cauliflower sauce & chippings were a great texture addition. 10/10 on these. We both got the bone-out ribeye cooked medium. It came out cooked probably medium rare+ which is what we like anyway. It was truly seared to perfection, cooked consistently throughout. This steak was special. 10/10. The surprising highlight of the meal was probably the fries. I got fries just because I'm a big fry guy. These fries were the best I've ever had. With every bite, they'd simply melt in your mouth. And they weren't wet or greasy at all either, which would normally be the case with melt in your mouth fries. These were cooked to perfection, fresh, and idk how they do it. They were served with beef tallow. She also got the whipped potatoes that were whipped to perfection. I can't use "perfect" enough in this revenue because that's how everything was. She wanted the scalloped potatoes because apparently they're to die for here, but they had sold out. The table next to us verified that the scalloped potatoes are the best they've ever had. We paid $387 which included two cocktails, two glasses of wine, bread, scallops, two ribeyes, fries, and whipped potatoes. The service was nice, very busy and no complaints. The ambiance was very homey but private at the same time. If you're considering a nice dinner locally, you need to go here, I can't recommend it enough. read more

Venice Steakhouse - Tomato martini - Steakhouses Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Stopped in tonight for my first time because I live very close by and heard that this little steakhouse is run by one of the two founders of Petit Trois, which is one of my favorite restaurants in LA. I can confirm this is a really solid and classy steakhouse and a great recommendation for dinner. Parking can be a bit tricky, there isn't a dedicated lot, but you can find street parking on the side streets. Our server was very polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. Inside is also designed really well. It has a classy, mid-century modern look to it, and I think it really added to the experience. They have outdoor covered seating, which wasn't being used on a cold December night, but the tables near the full-size bar, as well as the dining room with a cozy roaring fireplace were very full and lovely. I started off my meal with the Baby Beats Salad and loved it. The horseradish goat cheese was especially amazing, my only complaint was that it was a very small portion. For my entrée, I chose the 8 ounce Filet Mignon with a Green Peppercorn Sauce and absolutely loved it. The combination was almost sweet, and something I would highly recommend. We also ordered the Butterscotch Pot de Creme for dessert and that too was a wonderful treat. It was not overly sweet, but had a pleasant, strong vanilla flavor. I would highly recommend this place for a date, or dinner with friends or family. I plan to be back in the future to try more items. read more

Fantastic food in a cute, rustic farmhouse vibe setting. It's definitely more of a splurge meal, but totally worth it for a special occasion. We decided to share a few things which was totally enough food between my fiance and I. We got the peaches and burrata as a starter which was an off menu special and delicious. Then we shared the 10oz Baseball Steak with the Green Peppercorn sauce, the carrots, and the whipped potatoes for our main meal and it all blended so well together. We just got back from Paris so steak and pepper sauce is the only thing on my mind and this helped satisfy my craving. It was our anniversary dinner so they surprised us with a Butterscotch pot de creme dessert which is amazing as a whole but the homemade vanilla cream on top is to die to for. Our waiter was great at explaining every dish and really hyping everything up for the quality of the ingredients and how it was made. I would say be prepared for a bit of a longer dinner here, they definitely take their time making the food so it was a bit of a wait to get everything out. Still loved it and would come back! read more

We recently came here to celebrate a birthday, and unfortunately it wasn't the experience we were hoping for. From the moment we walked in, the restaurant seemed understaffed. The employee at the front was on the phone with another customer and didn't acknowledge us when we arrived. We overheard her explaining that she wasn't the host and couldn't accommodate what the caller was asking for. After ending the call, she finally seated us. Even though the restaurant was fairly empty, we were seated tightly between two other occupied tables while there were plenty of open tables with more space. It wasn't the most comfortable way to start the evening. Our interaction with our waiter also felt uncomfortable. He asked if we "really knew LA" or had lived here a long time because we weren't familiar with the chef or their other restaurant. As locals who live in Venice, it came across as condescending and immediately gave us a bad impression. Throughout the meal, the server repeatedly made a point of talking up the chef and the restaurant's background. Rather than feeling genuine, it came across as if he was trying to sell us on the restaurant instead of simply providing warm, attentive service. It felt forced and inauthentic. Service throughout the meal was very slow. We had a 7:30 p.m. reservation and didn't leave until after 10:00 p.m., which felt excessive, especially for a birthday dinner with my parents who were visiting from out of town. The food was mixed. The Caesar salad was excellent, and the steaks were cooked very well. However, some of the dishes our server recommended, particularly the Beet Salad, were disappointing and not something we would order again. To make matters worse, even after we were ready to leave, we couldn't. We waited quite a while with our check and credit card sitting on the table, but our server never came back to process the payment. After already spending over two and a half hours at the restaurant, it became very frustrating. We eventually had to get up and hand our credit card to a different server so we could finally pay and leave. We also noticed the couple seated next to us experienced the exact same issue. Overall, it was an expensive meal that didn't match the level of service or hospitality we expected. We chose this restaurant to celebrate a special birthday with my parents while they were visiting from out of town, and it ended up being a disappointing experience. Unfortunately, based on the poor service and overall experience, I don't think we'll be returning. read more

The food was AMAZING here We got the burgers and a bunch of sides the macand cheese was one of the best I have ever tasted in LA. Joseph and Kaleigh were super nice and gave us great suggestions The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is because there is no air conditioning here and it's super hot inside the restaurant we are going through a heat wave and it's unbearable inside the restaurant read more

We went on the first night of dinela. We were seated at 650pm. We didn't leave till 950pm. The food is great. The drinks were great. But the slow progression of our food without any explanation or apologies was not. I was surprised they didn't even comp one of the glasses of wine, since we had three drinks each because we were just waiting and waiting. So one star less for slowness but the food gets 5. read more

Food was excellent! Servers were, friendly and helpful! Restaurant was packed so I'm sure they had to work in overdrive. They did so with smiles! It was a bit noisy but not surprising with a packed house! I totally recommend this steakhouse to everyone! Thank you!!!!!! read more

5 stars all around! The service was impeccable. The GM, Hoang Nguyen was so hospitable and friendly. He gave us the best seat in house and accommodated us from the moment we arrived to moment we left and checked in on us throughout the night. He even personally reached out to let me know I accidentally left my debit card. He and his staff are highly knowledgeable regarding wine and cuisine- especially steak of course. We tried several different cuts of steak, appetizers, and wines and was impressed with every bite. The chef cooked the steak perfectly medium rare. The sauces were fun to try with different dishes. Everyone at our table are foodies and we were all very impressed with the experience and will definitely be back! read more

I shared an excellent meal at the bar. My favorite app was the cheese board. They have some kind of housemade mustardo that goes so well with the different cheeses and grilled sourdough. My favorite side was the baby carrots with yogurt sauce. Don't miss it. I love the ambiance inside; it's a different world. So calm, warm and inviting inside. The mood is casual but the service and food quality is almost formal. read more

This place holds a really special spot in my heart -- it's where my ex and I got back together over dinner, so it'll always mean something more to me than just a great meal out. But even setting the sentimental value aside, this steakhouse delivers on every level. The ambience is beautiful, the customer service is genuinely great, and the steaks are cooked to perfection. What really stood out to me was how they transformed the outdoor patio to feel like an indoor space -- simple, elegant furnishings that somehow make it feel both cozy and open at the same time. The drinks are excellent too. It's one of the most romantic little spots in Venice Beach, and honestly, I haven't found anywhere quite like it in the area. The location alone is worth the visit. Highly recommend if you're looking for somewhere special -- whether it's a date night or just a beautiful place to enjoy a great meal. read more

Absolutely love this hidden gem! I've been for happy hour at the bar and sit down dinner. The martinis (and overall drink menu) are incredible, as well as their scallops with cauliflower puree, fries, and steaks, and sauces. Service and ambiance are A+ read more

Amazing food overall. The salmon was honestly one of the best I've ever had, perfectly cooked and super flavorful. The Caesar salad was also incredible, probably the best Caesar I've had in a long time. We ordered the filet mignon, which was good, but nothing particularly special compared to other steakhouses I've been to. Overall though, the food quality was excellent and I'd definitely come back especially for the salmon and salad. read more

Very cute restaurant, dark and dim and intimate we sat at the bar for dinner. They could have a more intensive by the glass wine less but other than that, everything was very good since we were at the bar, the bartender was pretty busy, but overall, I was super friendly. read more

We had dinner here last Sunday night with another couple and thought the food was okay. First off, our server was not that friendly and had a less than stellar personality. The menu is small but we did find things that we liked. One of our friends wanted an Arnold Palmer or an iced tea and our server said, "We're out of iced tea." We wondered if he could have had someone steep hot tea, then add ice, but he didn't suggest that. Otherwise, we enjoyed glasses of Sancerre. We all had the Caesar Salad with romaine hearts, Venice Steakhouse dressing, tons of Reggianao Parmesan, white anchovies, and brioche croutons. The salad was very good. We also had the 12oz West Aged Rib Cap steak that was served with a very dull steak knife making it hard to cut. We had the 10 oz. Prime Sirloin Baseball Steak which was better than the Rib Cap, but still difficult to cut. with another dull knife. The Mary's Chicken with arugula and Dijon mustard jus was good. For sides, we got the Scalloped Potato-Yukon golds with garlic, thyme, and Gruyere cheese. The potatoes were a little thyme heavy. We didn't have dessert but the Butterscotch Pot de Creme would definitely be something I'd order another time. read more

As advertised! Can't believe how high quality this experience was given the rest of my steakhouse experiences in LA. I was really impressed with their bartenders as well. Very welcoming and warm. Worth a try! My west side experiences are always something with the people watching and this place (especially on a weekend) is a nice spot to sit and watch! read more

I hate that this level of disappointment even brings me to Yelp, but here we are--$300 later. We had a reservation and were seated 40 minutes late, which already set the tone for the night. The staff attempted to smooth things over with a complimentary glass of prosecco, but honestly, a free drink doesn't make up for wasted time and poor service. Yes, the food was good--but not wait-half-an-hour-past-your-reservation good, and definitely not good enough to compensate for the overcrowded, chaotic atmosphere and consistently terrible service. Everything felt rushed, disorganized, and inattentive, like they were trying to pack in as many people as possible without the staff to support it. For the price point, the experience should have been far better. Good food alone isn't enough when the service and atmosphere are this disappointing. Unfortunately, this place just didn't deliver. read more

We loved our first visit to Venice Steakhouse and had the BEST service from Ronnie who was enthusiastic, friendly, and super knowledgeable. The food was absolutely delicious and we loved everything from start to finish. Mac and cheese and steaks were the highlights as well as the meat plate and wonderful BLT wedge. We look forward to returning soon and appreciate such a positive experience!!! read more

The quality and ambiance don't quite justify the price point yet. The space took over Tocaya, which means you still have to awkwardly exit the restaurant and walk around the side of the building to use the restroom...not exactly seamless. We waited about 20 minutes on a Wednesday night before having to flag down the host just to get a server. The food was fine but unmemorable, you'd have a much better overall experience at places like American Beauty or Scopa. read more

I visited Venice Steakhouse for the first time during Dine LA week and will absolutely be coming back. Decor and ambiance is great. Service was attentive and informative. When it comes to the food... wow. The steak was delicious but the Wedge Salad and the Sticky Toffee Pudding were both the best iterations of those dishes I've ever had. Please make the Sticky Toffee Pudding a permanent menu item. Thanks for an excellent dinner! read more

As a steak and dessert girlie, Venice Steakhouse absolutely delivered! The food was incredible from start to finish. The steak was cooked to perfection and honestly tastier than any of the top steakhouses in LA. We paired it with their scalloped potatoes and beef tallow fries, and the steak sauce accompaniments were delicious, elevating every single bite. Do not miss the butterscotch pot de crème. It was absolutely divine and the perfect way to end the meal. The mocktails were also fantastic- creative, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It's nice to see a place that puts as much thought into their non-alcoholic drinks as their cocktail menu. The service was wonderful throughout our visit. I need to give a special shoutout to Nick, who went above and beyond even though he wasn't our designated server. If you love steak and dessert, Venice Steakhouse is a must! read more

f you're trying to figure out where to celebrate something special, just book the table at Venice Steak House and thank me later. Went for a birthday dinner and immediately loved the vibe. It's giving mountain cabin energy with a little Sopranos edge. Dim lighting, warm wood, cozy but still cool. The kind of place where you settle in and know you're about to eat well. The BLT wedge salad was a 10/10. Super crisp, smoky bacon, perfectly dressed. Not an afterthought salad at all. The Hokkaido scallops were cooked beautifully. Golden on the outside, buttery and tender inside. Maybe slightly heavy on the salt, but still absolutely worth ordering. The Venice steak, medium rare with béarnaise, was cooked perfectly. Warm red center, juicy, flavorful, exactly what you want from a steakhouse. The béarnaise was chef's kiss. Rich, silky, and just elevated the whole thing. Scalloped potatoes had the right amount of cheese and that creamy, comforting texture that makes you keep going back for one more bite. Finished with the olive oil cake and it was actually moist. Light, fragrant, and the perfect ending after a big meal. Ask for Ozzy as your waiter. Amazing service. Super attentive without hovering and really knew the menu. The restaurant manager and staff kept checking in to make sure we were enjoying everything, which made the whole night feel extra special. Chef Sydney is absolutely killing the game. This is the only real authentic steakhouse on the Westside and they're doing it right. Perfect birthday spot, great date night move, and honestly just a solid excuse to treat yourself. Highly recommend. read more

We had a lovely experience at Venice steakhouse! Cozy and romantic little spot. Kaylee our waitress made the experience 6/5 for us.

We had to check this place out to see what all the hype was about. The location and overall vibe are definitely cool, and the staff was incredibly nice and knowledgeable. That said, prices are on the higher side, though the portion sizes are decent. What stood out the most was how long it took for our steaks to come out, especially since the restaurant wasn't busy at all. Overall, it was cool to try once, but we probably won't be back. The prices just feel too high when there are other great steak houses in the area that are just as delicious (if not more) without nearly the same price tag. read more

exceptional food and drink. My partner and I live nearby and just doscovered this place. Incredible. Low key but very high quality.
