Excellent for a special occasion or if you just want an amazing meal.
I would give via Venetto five stars based on their delicious food alone, but unfortunately it took forever to get served. I realize it was a Saturday night and they were busy, but it took quite a bit longer than it should have. The food is top-notch- and I'm super picky especially about Italian food. 
My experience with that restaurant was amazing! Food was very very delicious Italian style ( fresh , homemade )Thank you so so much

Via Veneto is a charming Italian restaurant located in an older building in Santa Monica. The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere and outstanding staff, including hospitable servers. The menu features a range of Italian dishes, including daily specials such as bone marrow, scallops, and pasta with shaved truffles. Guests have praised the exquisite appetizers and the cioppino and gnocchi with arrabbiata sauce. The restaurant has an extensive wine list and offers half-bottles for added variety. It is noted that the restaurant's kitchen stays open later than many others, making it a great spot for those seeking a late-night meal. With its excellent food and warm ambiance, Via Veneto is an ideal spot for date nights, group outings, and special occasions.
The restaurant has received recommendations for its consistently delicious food, such as the lobster pasta, ravioli of the day, and fish soup. The atmosphere is described as "pure old-world romance," with chandeliers casting a warm glow that makes every guest look like a movie star. Via Veneto is a Santa Monica staple that still feels like an underrated gem, with a hospitable staff and a beautiful, intimate setting.
