The food was fresh but very underwhelming in flavor. Portion sizes were great. Definitely needed more seasoning. We ordered the Spaghetti and Meatballs (went into the trash) Crawfish Rolls (strong bacon flavor), Seafood Delight (No cajun flavor). I did enjoy the fresh vegetables in the pasta. I would visit again maybe to try the pizza. Parking was pretty full.

This was my favorite restaurant for years. I don’t know if the staff changed but I can definitely tell the same cook isn’t in the back. My pasta had more oil than sauce. The Rasta Pasta was my go to. It doesn’t even taste the same.

I randomly stumbled across this cute gem by a simple search for shrimp pasta & had to come try it out. Everything was fresh & delicious from my Lunch portion seafood pasta, to my dessert (Italian Lemon Wedding Cake) this cake omg- I want some more- it was lovely, the staff was friendly (had great server with a nice smile and good energy- he was very attentative to all his guests) - love the cute & clean ambience here. The food didnt take look to come out but was fresh! The patio area was cute & looks to be a vibe- I will try it another time. I will be back soon with my family! I needed a self-care day of endulging in lunch & a sweet treat- & truly experienced it today! Definitely give this place a try. I would rate everything 10 out of 10, honestly!

Venice Kitchen has quickly become one of my go-to spots since moving to Memphis. It’s the perfect date night restaurant — cozy, welcoming, and always consistent. Every time I’ve been, the service has been incredible. The staff go out of their way to make you feel taken care of, and the food is always fresh and delicious. What I really love is that it feels like a “nicer night out” without being overly upscale or intimidating. You get great quality dishes, a relaxed but elevated atmosphere, and a perfect setting whether you’re on a date or just want to treat yourself to a good meal. If you’re looking for a place that strikes the balance between casual and special, Venice Kitchen is it. Highly recommend!

I love love love Venice Kitchen. It’s one of my favorite spots to get dinner in Memphis. We got the S5, crawfish egg rolls, and chicken tacos this time. The S5 is a unique and delicious pizza creation. The crawfish egg rolls are creamy, perfectly seasoned, and stuffed with just the right amount of crawfish. I like to get the house salad with lemon vinaigrette to feel healthy lol. Other things I’d recommend: the lemon drop, southern Cobb salad, creole delight pasta, and fried chicken chipotle tacos. You really can’t go wrong with much here.
