Our meals were excellent and good. The vodka sauce ravioli was great, the margarita pizza was good (needed a little further time in the oven). The chocolate cake was good too. The best part was our server, Aleyah, who've we've had in the past and she's always been wonderful.

We have been here before for pizza that was very good. This time we ordered regular entrees. Arancini were delicious. My partner had the gnocchi and said it was just OK. I would say the same about the rigatoni bolognese. The pasta was cooked properly, but the meat in the sauce was somewhat stringy and did not have enough of the tomato flavor that belongs in bolognese. Tiramisu was served in a glass. Looked nice, but was pretty bland. The operative word is OK.

Veneto is always an amazing dining experience. We choose to eat at the bar and watching the team cook and the servers work their magic makes the experience great. Also, the food is always fabulous.

This was our first time at Veneto Wood Fired Pizza - without a doubt we will be back. We wanted to try multiple items on the menu, but stuck with the pizza and was not disappointed. the pizza was cooked to perfection and even great as a leftover the next day. We were not sure about sitting at the counter, but that turned out to be fun. we were able to chat with our waitress and watch the pizza being made. the salads look so good that we can't wait to get back and try one of those. Next time we will be enjoying some pasta. I know it has been a long-time restaurant in the area, as we learned from our waitress, this will be a new restaurant on our weekly dinner out...
