50 Best Pizza 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!!!“

“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!!!“

If NY Italians chose Mama Maria's, you know the food is delicious!“

“If you’re in Lakewood Ranch and craving New York–New Jersey style pizza, you have to try Valentino Pizzeria Trattoria. 🍕 I’m from Long Island, so trust me when I say I know good pizza — and theirs is!. I just realized they were originally established in New Jersey, and honestly it all makes sense zzzThe red sauce, the crust… it tastes like home. Their whole menu is amazing, — the chicken piccata, the chicken parm, literally every entrée is done right. You can tell they put pride and professionalism into everything they make. If you haven’t been, go support this awesome local spot. You won’t regret it! 🙌🇮🇹🍝“

“I am a frequent customer of this pizzeria, today I place a delivery order, for the first time, the service took 20 minutes longer than I said, call to verify what was happening and the person
(Man) At 1:26pm on 08/22/26, it was quite rude when I told him I wanted to know what happened to my order, in fact he even called me without letting me finish talking.
Super bad attention from that person.“
