Venice Restaurant & Pizza Reviews
Food is excellent! Staff are very friendly and attentive.
Where to begin. I grew up in Ridgefield but moved away in 1979. I have only been back on two occasions and not since 1987. I took my wife to Ridgefield for the first time in August 2022 and had to take her to Venice. I am SO glad that the food is as good as I remember it being all those years ago. Even with new owners (one of whom introduced himself) and a new building, the food is even better than I remember it being. I cant wait for my next visit to CT, Venice will be my first...read full review
I generally like the food, however, I tried the chicken parmesan and was disappointed. It was over done, dry, not much sauce or cheese. Maybe just a bad night. Generally it is pretty good......

Venice Restaurant & Pizza offers a delightful dining experience with its tasty Italian cuisine at great prices. The Caesar salad with chicken, breast of chicken della casa, and Cavatelli with broccoli rabe, sausage, and garlic are all highly praised menu items. The Sicilian pizza is considered the best in Connecticut, although some customers have noted that the pizza could be improved with hotter ovens. The grilled NY strip steak, fried calamari, and stuffed mushrooms are also recommended. The restaurant is known for its generous portions and friendly staff, creating a family-oriented atmosphere that makes it a popular choice for families dining in or ordering takeout. Customers highlight that the pizza crust is perfect and the cheese is excellent, with some mentioning it as a five-star Italian cheese pizza. The chicken Francese is also highly praised, often described as the best ever experienced. Overall, Venice is recognized as one of the best value-for-money restaurants in Ridgefield, making it a regular spot for both casual meals and date nights.
