“Fantastically delicious! This place knows how to test your tastebuds♥️”
“Fantastic Gulf of America views, great food, super service, great array of frozen drinks! Nice way to eat and spend a leisurely afternoon!!”
“Absolutely outstanding dinning experience the Gyro platter was the best flavor structured food in a long time. Great work from Paul and his team. Great to watch them hustle.”
“Sharky’s (and Fins) was the perfect surprise after a long drive and a Venice Beach sunset. The hostess recommended Fins, and it couldn’t have been better. We started with chilled lobster claws and Oyster Rockefeller — both incredible. My friend, who thought she didn’t like oysters, called them the most delicious thing she’s ever eaten. We shared a petite filet cooked medium rare to perfection, paired with a glass of Pinot Noir that felt magical. The service was seamless, with both servers providing warmth, professionalism, and great energy. Combined with the amazing food, relaxed atmosphere, and a breathtaking view of the sunset over the beach, this experience completely exceeded expectations. I can’t wait to come back.”

“Another Great home cooked meal from my favorite restaurant in Florida. 5 Stars because everything was delicious, Again. All Fresh and home cooked meals. Wine and Beer only but 2ed bottle of wine is half-price. Only holds about 25-30 people, that's why you MUST have a reservation Be patient for your food because it is all made from scratch.”
“Jeremy the host was very welcoming and explained the difference between the dining room upstairs and the tavern/bar downstairs. This was our first visit and he suggested upstairs. We were sat at a lovely table outside overlooking the water. Our waitress Becky was very attentive professional and pleasant. The food did take longer than expected but overall the quality was very good.”

“Absolutely wonderful pizza and cannoli!. We will go back as it was an instant best for us. Pizza was laughter and very fresh with wonderful ingredients. Give this one a try!.”
“The BEST place ever!!!!! While visiting from New Mexico we had breakfast at Paris’s Coffee and Cannoli Bar. I grew up in Brooklyn NY and this place brought me back to my childhood. LOVE IT💖”
“Ate at the truck last week. Staff was extremely friendly and the food was delicious. Got a hot lobster roll with butter and the bread was soft and warm with so much lobster on top. Can’t wait to see you out again! Will be back.”
“We visited for the first time today while in the area. Always heard to check the restroom to know what a restaurant really is like lol. Well I had to and found it to be very clean and smelled clean and fresh. On to our meal. I totally enjoyed the whole belly clams meal with a delicious slaw and subbed corn on the cob for the fries as I typically don’t eat fries. Those clams were wonderful, large juicy and flavorful. The corn was fresh and sweet and the slaw was perfect to my taste. I enjoyed a sangria with my meal. Enjoyed every bite. My husband is a self proclaimed oyster aficionado, he ordered a dozen raw on the half shell. He proclaimed them to be perfect. He was impressed that they were fresh, plump, and sufficiently briny. He really enjoyed them fully. He also had the red beans and rice meal along with a beer and said it was good food. So thumbs up Shuck N Ale. We had to be there for a doctor visit that took us 45 minutes to drive there to Venice, but hubby says it’s worth a drive that long to come for the food anytime. See you again! By the way the staff were friendly and the food was delivered promptly so thumbs up for that as well. The music was just beginning as we were leaving.”

“My family and I come here almost every week for wings and always enjoy the atmosphere. This time though Sierra went above and beyond and not only took care of us at our table but also ensured that we got our credit card that I forgot and she made sure we got got it.”
“One of my FAVORITE AUTHENTIC MEXICAN restaurants!! will drive 45 minutes out of our town to eat this delicious food! there is always a long wait at the doors for them to reopen at 430 too! they are that good!!”
“Had lunch for my Birthday, food was excellent. Service was professional and friendly. Try the cole slaw, you’ll be happy you did!! I’ll be back again!!”
“Simply great! Small, quaint, friendly staff, clearly a family endeavor! Good wine list, but the food was amazing. Beautiful presentation, fresh and delicious ingredients from start to finish!! We can’t wait to go back!”
Outdoor Dining
“Great meal from start to finish! Our waitress, Marina, was very attentive and pleasant. Grilled Cesar salad was fresh and crisp and had just enough char for taste. Steaks and rack of lamb were cooked appropriately and seasoned well. Stuffed Branzino (a special) and black grouper were fresh and tasty. Desserts did not disappoint. Delicious! We'll be back!”
“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.”

Online Reservation Available
“The food was amazing. But I made a reservation for 8 at 7pm. Walked in and said told them I had a reservation she came over asked me my name then she answered then phone. After she got off the phone I asked if we could please sit outside and she said “ do you really want to do that I would have to move a table” She then said I have you set up in the back and led me to the back and walked away and said ya great in a smart manor. She was walking around talking to everyone so she must be some kinda lead I wouldn’t even call her a manager but yeah with that interaction me and my 350$ dinner bill will not be back.”
“Love the food and the amazing service. The older gentleman that owns the place runs a tight ship. He’s always courteous and delivers good value for the money. Plus, they are one of the few Chinese restaurants in town that offers a poo poo platter. If you’re looking for a charming environment to eat in, this is not the place. This is more for people that are looking for quality Chinese food that’s either takeout or delivery.”
“Kathy did a fantastic job as always. The food was superb and the management team with Marcell and Dan are outstanding. Marcell and Dan always make a point of stopping by. I love this place because of the people and the food. Great job. Kathy is awesome. Thanks for all you do. 5 star all the way.”
Takeout Restaurants
“While all servers here are excellent, we adore when we get Mikey as our server. His memory is wild and his service is always perfect. He anticipates our needs before we even realize we have them. Always pleased when we get seated in section. This place always has amazing service and wonderful food. One of our favorite places.”
“My wife and I went here last Friday evening when we were still in Venice: we had a wonderful meal, excellent service & a fun atmosphere we will definitely be back.”
“What an unexpected delight! Delicious fish and loved that they had malt vinegar with it! A little disappointed they served steak fries instead of English chips but everything was excellent. Wish we had more nights to try some of the other English dishes. The Ole Smoky Old fashioned was also superb. And what a fun way to present with the burnt cedar. Better than our Wisconsin old fashioned. ?. We will definitely return next winter.”
“Walk into this Gem of a wine bar on the island of Venice and experience wines from Italy, France, Spain. Paired with exquisite food made by the owner Carmel. Enjoy charcuterie boards, pairing dinners, and some exquisite desserts. Excellent restaurant and highly recommended.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“We were introduced to Obee's while visiting family that lives in Venice, and now we make it a point to eat there whenever we're visiting. This time we ate there twice during a week. Their bread, meats and condiments and salads are fresh and their subs taste like the best New England subs!”
“Best cheesesteak in Florida. Authentic NY thin crust pizza and many other authentic Italian dishes to choose from. Went for dinner with my Mom last weekend and had a huge table of New Yorkers next to us, laughing and talking Boisterously. Found out they were all from Brooklyn and the Bronx. If NY Italians chose Mama Maria's, you know the food is delicious!”

“Waited at least 20 minutes for a table outside. They were crowded as usual. Waited 5 minues for Jennifer to bring us coffee and water. She said she'd be right back for order. 15 minutes later others were seated, and actually served. Our waitress rook the order fir a couple who had just been seated and then took ours. I complained to the hostess who took off our coffees. The waitress apologized for serving the other couple first. She didn't understand that we had waited an additional 20 minutes to PLACE our order. I never complain, I've been wait staff. The wait staff there has always been fabulous until today. She is clueless.”
“Last minute reservations for 6, fit us in it was our first visit but def not the last! Great service, the food was fantastic, I really would give them ten stars if I could! Highly recommend my new fav Italian spot!!”
“One of my favorite places on the Island, Food, Drinks and overall employees are outstanding. Fabulous...”

“Delicious! We ordered from both the Thai and American menus, food was excellent and prepared with care. Restaurant is clean and clearly a labor love. While others complain about the prices, good food and attentive service doesn’t come free! We’ll be back.
Dietary restrictions: They can prepare Thai sauces gluten free.”
“Dinner was OK nothing to brag about .. we were asked to move leave after paying the bill.. I've worked in alot of restaurants and never did this to a party...”
“Went here with my wife and her in-laws. They are part of the Marriott Bonvoy Eat Around Town program, so got some points for some incredible shrimp scampi and wonderful service.
The owner even stopped by and was real laid back and funny..would've fit into the Rat Pack had he been born 30 years earlier.”

“Outstanding! In the hospitality industry, the objective is to create a pleasant experience for the patron. Food or service is just a tool to do that. Each transaction may be small $$, but the pleasant experience will generate return visits. A shout out to Brandy and Tiffany, as well as the others. Well-staffed. Attentive. Reasonable prices. This place is the model of how to do it right!”

“We love all the Tequila resturants ...Blue...Pink...Lime and now the Venice Pineapple Tequila that recently opened. We went to dinner tonight with friends there and had a great meal. We had about a 30 minute wait but well worth the wait time. Our server Yalitzaly was wonderful...she was super friendly and did a phenomenal job taking care and serving us. She was very experienced and accommodating ....I would say she is a super good valuble employee that cares about the resturants customers. Thanks Yalitzaly for making our night enjoyable and the desert was awesome ! Rap & Mary Peavy”

Steaks and rack of lamb were cooked appropriately and seasoned well. Stuffed Branzino (a special) and black grouper were fresh and tasty. Desserts did not disappoint. Delicious! We'll be back!”
