   Lovely. The waitress was fantastic. My husband loved the Lamb Shank. The ambience was perfect. I found the cost of the food very reasonable compared to the quality. It really is difficult to eat out these days because the food quality is so poor and the pricing so high. I found the value here to be exceptional. Thank you for making our anniversary special.

   We had a family dinner for my dad’s birthday and having been here before, I knew we would have a great experience. As expected, we experienced great service, food and drinks. Our server, Mario, provided us with an amazing experience.

   This place offers a fantastic dining experience with top-notch service and a great atmosphere. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food was delicious and well-prepared, with fresh ingredients and great flavors that stood out in every dish. The ambiance was also lovely, making it a great spot for a special occasion or a nice night out. The only downside was the pricing—it felt a bit steep for what you get. While the quality was certainly there, the value could have been better. That said, if you’re looking for excellent service and a well-executed menu

   Had such a wonderful experience. The staff is very attentive and on point with knowledge of the food and wines. Brings out the courses perfectly as they reset between courses. Never had to ask for refills or needed to ask for anything. The ambiance is romantic and comfortable. We shared the lamb Rib-lets and salmon caviar belinis which were perfectly prepared and the portions were perfect so that we were not too full to enjoy our entrees. I had the Salmon and my wife had the filet. Again cooked and portions were perfect. Our server suggested the Sancerre paired with the my Salmon and the Faust Cabernet for my wife. Both were great wines that neither of us had enjoyed before. We will definitely return to dine again very soon.

   I absolutely love dining at Cucina Venti. The inside is beautifully decorated and the outdoor dining is breathtaking. I often book reservations for my team dinners, when the CEO needs an excellent dining option for business meetings and for myself out with my husband. The staff are all exceptionally pleasant and prompt in service. The food options offer something for all and all are exquisite. I have by now tried almost everything on the menu but my go to items are the Salmon in the piccata sauce or the Filet and the Lamb Rib-lets for the appetizers. My husband always goes for the Rib-Eye Steak and the Chocolate Temptation Cake. My favorite dining spot in the Bay Area.

   It’s a wonderful experience to dine at Cucina Venti. It’s a beautiful restaurant when you walk through the doors and out the back to the gorgeous outdoor dining area. Everything on the menu is prepared to perfection. We started with the veal meatballs. And they are just delightful. They give you three on the plate, and they’re bound to start fights for who will get the third. So my recommendation to the restaurant is to serve a number matching the number of people dining. Two people, give them two meatballs. And you won’t have fights. O..K. keep it three, and we’ll split the third. And I’ll make my piece bigger. The octopus and breaded zucchini appetizers were also great. The lamb chops and halibut were cooked to perfection, and I didn’t have the halibut just for the Hell of it. This is a go to dish! Burt maybe serve it over mashed potatoes since we also had the truffle risotto, as a side dish and I think, it was the best risotto I ever had. For dessert we had the tiramisu which was great. And I would recommend that they serve some vanilla gelato with it. Also, get a menu for the desserts and more options. Cucina Venti is one of the finest restaurants in the Bay Area. Oh, the glasses of Chianti and Chablis wee just superb! Yea, Cucina Venti is one of my favorite restaurants!

    Food was great, our server was beyond pleasant, price was reasonable, but this restaurant automatically added 20% tips when we were a party of 3. I was almost tricked to add tips a second time. For this reason, I will not come back.
