Venice Cucina (on the circle across from the blue gondola) is fantastic!

Just had breakfast--eggs and pasta and spinach and cheese and oh yum--it was super delicious.

Sasha makes the BEST cappuccino--just like in Italy.

Why there has been no Grand Opening I have no idea--so everyone go to Venice Cucina soon and try this new place out--food is terrific!  (Also, the owner has been at this location for a long, long time—support our local businesses!)

I stopped in when they first opened and said I would post a story – they asked that I not do so as it was the first week or two and they wanted to get it all together first. They haven't emailed me yet to do the story ….

I've driven by many times and unfortunately not seen many people there.  If there's a little group of YoVenice folk who'd like to show up in mass (it's BYOB so if you are thirsty….) it might be kind of fun.

Sasha has been at that corner for many many years and is a fun, smart guy to talk to—and the food is reasonably priced and GOOD!

Thanks for letting us know, I had no idea a restaurant had opened there. We get stuck in favorite routes and shortcuts, sometimes I make myself take a new route just to see what's going on, but I missed the Cucina somehow. Breakfast til 5! Perfect, I'm not a eggs in the morning person.

Time flies, I went by in January from what the picture says!

I just called them up, they are emailing a menu to me … will post on main page in a few.

Thanks "bythec"!

I had been wondering about this place and finally wandered in a few weeks ago. 

 

Anybody know if there's parking?  Seems like a tough location if you're not on foot or biking.

 

I had a sub (forget if it was meatball or sausage) -- lunch time.  It was fine, nothing special, overpriced.  I'll have to try breakfast some time soon.

Last time I looked that place was an office supply company. Glad to see it's a local IIIIItalian Restaurant.

 

SI
