Partners, Eric Papachristos and Chef Paul King have brought The Venetian back to its glory days. Chef Paul focuses on the classics of neighborhood Italian American cuisine, homemade pasta, steaks & chops straight from the butcher, Craft cocktails, and an impressive Italian & American wine list. A fresh renovation has brought 1950’s elegance of black tin-ceilings, red leather tufted booths, and chandeliers to the South Shore.The Venetian – A Weymouth Tradition, Reimagined.

The food is so bad I didn't even know you can make it this bad. I'm not a chef but I cook 100x better. The "shrimp scampi" is a bowl of pasta with boiled small shrimp ans undercooked spinach and tomatoes. It is not a shrimp scampi by any stretch. The manager comped it but no one asked if I wanted something else so i ended up eating mashed potato and my sisters salad. The vodka rigatoni was spicy (why??) and the pasta was chewy. And the arancini didnt have proscutto in them and no one knew why LOL. This place can prosper with the right kitchen. Lower your ridiculous for that place prices and hire quality cooks. Will not be going back and will not recommend it. Our server was very nice though.

We had dinner here on New Year’s Eve. The food was great and the service was very good. The real draw, though, was the decor. The restaurant was all decked out for Christmas and looked gorgeous.

We have visited the Venetian other times and had a good exp with both the service & food. This last visit was during their holiday pop up. Food was just ok partners dish was cool, my dish lacked sauce for the chicken parm. was served mostly dry more like breaded chicken. place was not that busy but service was not at its best Probably the last time we will go there even though it is right in our neighborhood.
