The food here is amazing!!
Delicious, fresh & vibrant!!

I ordered the Ponzu Salmon Poke bowl & it was lovely.

The staff here are mostly nice except for the little lad with the glasses & brown loafers, he needs to smile more.

The ambiance is charming.
Service was good though one of the servers did not seem like he wanted to be there.
The tacos were good BUT my salmon poke bowl was WAY too salty… felt like rice with a side of salmon with an ingredrient that was too salty & overpowered the aftertaste…
Was too overprice for the portion.
Chop sticks felt cheap.

Venice Restaurant consistently delivers a cozy, well-designed atmosphere. Their poke bowls are among the city's finest, particularly the fresh & flavorful salmon ponzu. Complemented by excellent coffee & high-quality ingredients, it remains a premier destination for a reliable, vibrant meal. The inviting vibe makes every return visit worthwhile.

It's always good to go to Venice Restaurant, the vibe & the design are nice & cozy. They have one of the best poke bowls in town, & the coffee was great too. Try the salmon ponzu, it's absolutely delicious, the ingredients are fresh too.

The salmon & tuna pokes are both excellent, fresh ingredients & a lot of flavour. Staff where excellent when we called in on Saturday evening at around 5pm. However, I think they could increase the fish portion just ever so slightly to make it more value for money & a bit more filling. The gin & Yuzu cocktail is delicious.
