Restaurants near North Venice

“we first found pizza gorda in punta gorda and were regulars every sat nite, everything is always excellent. When they opened in Venice we hoped it would be as good, and it is. We are regulars there now and look forward to our dinners. You can't go wrong with anything!!!”

“I was in today for a work lunch, my 1st time ever. It was outstanding! I ordered the Long Boat press and I loved it. I am a creature of habit so I naturally would want to order it again...and again. Luckily for me, we were a big group so I got to see what everyone else had too, I plan to work my way through the whole menu! Great work!”

“Had a great family dinner tonight at Jersey Mike’s on Laurel Road in Nokomis. We ordered several different subs, and every single one was fresh, flavorful, and made exactly right. The bread was perfect, ingredients were generous, and the staff was friendly and efficient even during a busy dinner rush. Everyone left happy and full. Consistently solid quality and service—this location never disappoints. We’ll absolutely be back soon. Highly recommended for quick, delicious sub sandwiches.”

“McDonald's is just going downhill and it is getting very expensive can't afford to bring my family at 6:30 anymore might as well go to a real restaurant where you get real service for the price”

“Great experience at Wendy’s! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the service was excellent. Everything was quick, clean, and enjoyable. Definitely one of the best fast-food locations I’ve visited!”

“We had a family gathering catered by Dolce Italia and everything was absolutely amazing! We had trays of the Trenne Dolce Italia with sausage, an eggplant dish and homemade pasta with meatballs, which was absolutely delicious. The Mista salad was beautiful, fresh and the perfect compliment to the meal. The process was easy thanks to Matthew’s suggestions and the food was hot, packaged well and ready to be served.”

“Wow Wow Wow! Absolutely delicious and authentic Italian food! I never order pasta from a pizza joint... I'm way too serious about my pasta. I took a chance on Capo as I'd had a slice of their eggplant pizza and it was fabulous. I orded the rigatoni bolognese, and requested penne as a substitute. It was heaven. The sauce was perfect - the amount of garlic was subtley handled as was the rest of the seasoning. No bitterness and not too sweet either. You can tell the sauce had been cooked awhike and not rushed. The meat was high quality and the coupe de gras was to burrata! A huge helping of cheese right in the middle of the dish. The serving was huge... I only needed it for myself and I got 3 meals from it. Of course as all pasta lovers know it was even better the second day. I had the good fortune to be offered a meatball to try by the owner. I went back the next week for an order of meatballs and tried the gnocchi. Highly highly highly recommend giving this place a try!!!”

“Excellent service by Avinash. He was great. The food was wonderful and we’ll be back again we had Saag & Tikka chicken marsala very good”

“Always good food, never disappointed.”

“Best dang tacos in the state! The fusion taco is my favorite. The shrimp quesadilla is incredible. I would bathe in the salsa but apparently that’s frowned upon. Seriously, great food and a great family business.”

“Tony’s Chicago Hot Dogs in Sarasota is the real deal. The hot dogs are deep-fried and cooked over hot coils, giving them a crisp bite and smoky flavor you don’t get anywhere else. Toppings are classic Chicago-style, fresh, and piled high. It’s a fun, casual spot that delivers exactly what you want from a hot dog stand.”

“What a delightful ice cream find right here in Osprey Florida. Service with a smile and a delicious product. We're introducing our friends to this treat and the Janey's beautiful smile as she crafts each rolled treat. Try this, you won't regret it ;)”

“Outside tables in back of gas station/deli window but damn this is best Cuban sandwich I have ever had and can’t stop eating it. It’s loaded with a mild dill pickle that adds to the texture of the cuban seasoned meat. This is crack for lovers of Cuban food and who would have thought after visiting the store many times and never noticing until local referred me.”

“We had lunch today at Oak & Stone in North Port. Wellen Park! Great food service and pleasant atmosphere. 5 ⭐️”

We asked for the manager and told her they represented the restaurant well. Great place to go eat, relax and was within walking distance from where we stayed.”
