Absolutely best Italian hoagie ever!

I love this place. Delicious subs, the pizza is huge and loaded with toppings. The owner and staff are the right amount of friendly. It's cash only, so whenever I have the extra cash on me this place is a treat.

All my local relatives have said this is the best pizza in Ellwood! I probably agree with that, but it's just average. Dough - average. Sauce - average. Mushrooms out of a can - below average. If you want a true 5 star pie try Della Terra in Zelienople.

My wife and I went to Venezia’s for lunch. It is a wonderful place! The pizza, stromboli, and salad were exceptional however, my reason for visiting this restaurant was not because of the food.
I spent 31 years in the United States Navy, serving several tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan. During one of these tours, the unit I was with received correspondence (letters and colored pictures) from a kindergarten class. To show my appreciation for their gestures and support, I ALWAYS try to personally thank the organization or person that sacrificed their time to recognize our efforts abroad. In this case, I met the teacher of this class at her restaurant, Venezia’s. Upon thanking her, she asked me if I would be interested in reading a book to her class, which I gladly accepted. It was a wonderful experience to say the least.
With an overall rating of 4.7, I did read a few of the reviews others had submitted prior to writing this. I came across two reviews below four, which was a one authored by Lewis Gordon. Mr. Gordon wrote, “I will refuse to purchase any more from this establishment since they support an insurrectionist, multiple indicted con man”, the other from Real J who wrote, “Highly overrated…best pizza in the world? I doubt even top 50 in just Pennsylvania”
Of my 20 plus deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, a few of my goals which motivated me were; take care of my teammate, make sure all of us came home safely, and to protect the rights of our citizen’s.
Specifically regarding The First Amendment, Mr. J’s comment regarding where this restaurant is ranked within the great state of Pennsylvania, is absolutely acceptable. It is his opinion, although I may disagree, his comment/s are his comments and are specifically related to the restaurant.
However, I THINK that Mr. Gordon’s statement regarding insurrectionism is unacceptable. Statements like this should be fact based.
With the actions of the owner taking time to send ‘The Troops’ correspondence, recognizing Red Friday (R.E.D), and coordinating a welcome home with a service member and their child. I am CERTAIN this establishment does not support, nor are they part of ANY insurrectionism movement.
This is MY OPINION. I fought for more than 20 years so Mr. Gordon could write whatever he likes however, it would be nice if some people would take a look at what their accusations are prior to hitting the send button.
God Bless the USA

The food here is incredibly tasty and the (they only take cash or check!)-staff are all very nice. Me and my fiancé got the pizza, garlic bread, and the manicotti (it comes with a salad, which I chose to put Italian dressing on.) we also had cannolis which were AMAZING I loved them so much they weren’t too sweet which I personally love. All of that together was about 50$ but we got a lot of food (the pizza was huge) The service is great, they’re right to the point, quick and efficient. The only reason why i chose to give atmosphere 4 stars is because it is incredibly quiet, which I find awkward personality. I think it just needs some music of some kind.

I get to Ellwood City about once or twice a week. I usually wind up getting a pizza here. You can't find pizza this good anywhere in Pittsburgh. Make the drive to Ellwood. It's well worth it. Best Pizza no doubt.
