We ate here after we saw the place as we walked by. We were very well looked after and the food we ate was really good. I had a Sicilian pizza and my wife had a lovely twist on a risotto. We also had a bottle of the house red wine. We have booked again for Saturday night!

One of the best Italian restaurants I've ever been. We had mussels for starter to share which they brought in two separate plates and made it easy. The starter was massive and absolutely enough for two people. Then we had pepperoni calzone and salmon pasta bake which were amazing. The food is absolutely fresh and flavoured here. The calzone was delicious and stuffed which made it a big portion and the salmon pasta bake was perfectly cheesy and in a great creamy white sauce. We also had Tiramisu which was perfectly creamy. The staff were nice and friendly. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for fresh and flavoured italian food served in a huge portions.

I've visited Cafe Venice many times over the years when seeing family in London and it has always been excellent. The owner and staff are always very friendly, there's usually a good atmosphere at peak times and the food is excellent. I particularly like the garlic bread with cheese, it is the best I've had in any Italian restaurant. The La Reine pizza is my go to choice which I very much enjoyed recently. Overall, a lovely restaurant, good quality food and friendly staff!

I recently had an amazing meal at Cafe Venice in Whitton. We started with the dough balls and garlic mushrooms, which set a delicious tone for the evening. The dough balls were fresh and fluffy, served warm with a dipping sauce that was the perfect balance of garlic and butter. The garlic mushrooms were rich and flavorful, a great starter that hinted at the deliciousness to come. For mains, the tagliatelle with mushrooms and prawns in creamy sauce was superb. The pasta was perfectly al dente, with a creamy sauce that was rich but not overwhelming, letting the mushrooms and prawns shine. The pollo pizza was another hit, loaded with toppings and a perfect crust, and the rack of ribs was fall-off-the-bone tender, bursting with flavor. To finish, we indulged in chocolate fudge cake and tiramisu. The fudge cake was decadent and satisfying, but the tiramisu was the real star. Creamy, rich, and just the right amount of sweetness—it was absolutely out of this world! Special shoutout to the head waitress, who was exceptionally welcoming and made us feel like valued guests from start to finish. Her warm hospitality truly elevated the experience. Cafe Venice is a must-visit for anyone in Whitton!

Outstanding food and excellent customer service. The owner is great and the manager. I have ordered for many years and the pizza and pasta is amazing. Best Italian restaurant in Whitton and probably in London.

Saturday night, meet up with a friend. Service: a great welcome , and table service with a smile. Very attentive and not left waiting around as in sone other restaurants. Food: served quickly and efficiently sea food pizza and a garden veg pasta dish. Atmosphere: quiet and allowed for conversation without music blaring away. Good decor. I would return good food and reasonable house wine - value for money.
