Venchi Chocolate, Boston @ Eataly Prudential Center

Please bring the ice cream section of Venchis to
Boston ?

We came for a lunch reservation and our server attended to us once then disappeared. We never saw him again and had like 5 different servers who never came back with our drink orders, even when we asked 3 times. We waited 40 minutes and decided to leave. Very unimpressed. The food was good, but service, could use improvements.

Pizza and all of the dessert. The fresh pasta is good too

Calamarii fritti and italian pasta and pizza

Wait staff was very attentive and kind.

We came here for dinner, none of us had ever been here before. Its kind of an odd set up, restaurant type area in the middle of what appears to be a grocery store. Seating is bar stools at a thin table, not very comfortable. Service was very good, fast and friendly. Pasta is very fresh and tasted excellent although a bit pricey. The place is designed to have you sit and eat and then leave, not linger for any period of time. We wanted a quick meal so this worked for us. Overall, good experience.

There are a variety of delicious, upscale prepared food counters in here - mostly sandwiches, salads, pizzas, and pastas. The prepared meals were on the pricier side, although delicious enough to be worth the expense. There are tables inside if you want to sit here and enjoy your food. There's also a grocery store inside where you can buy produce, dried fruits and nuts, and various chocolates and cookies.

Was excellent food and great fast service

As my title implies, the selection at the grocery part of Eataly is fantastic. Legitimate cheese and pasta (meat section needs some work) offerings from Italy. We ate at La Pasta/La Pizza and the appetizer was the best part of the meal. Neither the pasta nor pizza was that good. For that reason alone, we would not return to eat.

We visited this great store during the day and were amazed at the goods on offer and there quality so we decided to book dinner in the Pasta and Pizza restaurant. That was a mistake. Our starter of squid and zucchini was excellent. The mains however were terrible. I had seafood linguini. It was the most off putting smell from the dish. The seafood was well over cooked and the sauce it was in was like dishwater and tasted of nothing. My wife had pasta in a tomato sauce. The sauce was just like someone had poured a tin of chopped tomatoes over it. There was no body taste to it. We also both thought our pasta was under cooked and chewy as if it hadn't been allowed to dry properly before being used. I suggest the chef returns to flipping burgers.

Eataly it self is just wonderful! Love the shopping sections and prepared food! But the restaurant La Pizza and La Pasta do not live up to expectation. Had to wait 20mins over our reservation time, once seated given water, order taken, bussers delivered our food, portions were especially small for $29 pasta dishes, our waiter never returned to ask if we needed beverages or how our meal was, we had to go find salt and pepper ourselves, lol. It’s was almost like a joke! I recommend you ordered pickup and go sit somewhere cute around eataly! Forget the restraunts!

Great place to visit. Great choice of Italian foods and produce. Had a salad for lunch, tremendous. Really tasty. Staff are lovely.

This restaurant is located in a mall adjacent to the Boston Sheraton. It is a combination of several dining areas and a store selling products relating to Italian cuisine. The dining areas offer a variety of Italian foods, you might want to check them all out before picking one. My wife and I had the ricotta gnocchi and stracciatella gelato. The food was very good, but expensive. It's a fun place to eat and shop. Service was very good.

It is an easy place to enjoy a variety of options and nice table service as well. We enjoyed a few oysters and drinks this time but also grabbed some fresh fruit and drinks to go.

This is a cool little spot within the Eataly center at Prudential. Chocolates are all phenomenal, albeit a little pricey for the boxed chocolates. I'd personally pick a few from their bins to sample. The chocaviar was my favorite.
