We were expecting a fancy dinner but it didn't meet our expectations. We are people who typically don't write reviews but feel that feedback for this restaurant is needed. We are from out of town and realized after we were seated, the restaurant had outdoor seating in the back that we weren't offered. The bread we received was good but slightly burnt, the stuffed shrimp was the best part of our meal. We ordered the sweetest white wine and it was dry and bitter so we ordered another drink. The waiter gladly took away the wine to offer another"sweet" drink and we were charged $10 per drink. We asked for chicken Alfredo and no chicken came in the entree. Overall the quality of the food was okay but very over priced. We paid roughly $65 for two with no dessert.

Best pizza ever. Order the pepperoni and feta. I've been going to Old Venice since I was a kid. Had our engagement party there. Countless birthdays. The atmosphere is perfect, the staff awesome and the food downright perfect!

PLEASE DON'T COME HERE. A polite note from the insider locals about their favorite spot. Not easy to see from the street, or inside the low candle light, as the only ambient light of a traditional old school, get pasta to impress, celebrate something special, or if you are a really lucky and smart traveler who is discrete and polite restaurant. Whichever you are, lucky you, there are maybe six or seven such places in any big city and in Diego, maybe we can push it to twelve. This and The World Famous, on pacific beach are two. If you eat here you are spending 25 a plate or more. Wine starting at 30+ a bottle and expect a bit of leftovers and few if any dissapointments. Dinner is a show, reservations for the garden courtyard an extra special thing and practically required. And if you are lucky enough to travel without small kids and know how to bring and buy an event, this is definitely a good place to do exactly that.

Excellent restaurant. Food is very good - Italian meets California Eclectic. Service tonight was a bit spotty but they were pretty busy. We have not been in many years but we used to take our young son there often many years ago because they have paper tablecloths and crayons for the young and old. Fun place!

I have been here various times, and the service has been good. The food is tasteful, and the atmosphere set up for a romantic date. Would recommend for some good Italian food.
