A romantic hidden find

What a wonderful place..Its my second time here and standards are still consistently good.

Soft, jazzy yet lively music playing in the background complements the brown, calm, modern feel of the restaurant. The pink, brown n clean themes exudes a romantic mood and this is the main factor why high school/ junior college couples n students frequently chill-out here. Somewhat quiet, Venezia provides the perfect mood for studying, doing work, and not to forget, tasting high-quality western, italian food and ice cream.

The soft, tangy texture of the seafood marinara spaghetti $7.50 allows u to slurp and digest it with just a few light bites. Effortlessly, a sumptuous mouthful of splendor is ingested. The black pepper tomato sauce drizzling with every twist of spaghetti is spicy yet fragrant and aromatic. Although it was a little too spicy for me, my friend found it appropriate. Appreciated the piping hot dish very much as it plays up the standards of the dish. The generous yet calculated fish bits, mussels and prawns are definitely fresh. Loved the succulent yet chewy prawns. Nothing to gripe about the display. Amazing that such a simple looking pasta was such flavourful and mouth-watering.

The homemade chicken pie was surprising creamy and piping hot inside. the slightly oily crust went well with the chicken, potato and other goodness packed within the big generous pie. At a mere $3.50, it is definitely worth a try.

Try the gelato ice creams for a healthy burst of flavour and oomph! $3.10 for 1 scoop, $5.20 for 3 scoops, $6+ for 3 scoops. Takeaway in tubs and it'll be all value for money and share the goodness with ur family!

Purchase and pay at the counter before they will bring it to u. Just a side point, felt that they should provide cleaner boiled water to drink at the side.

Kudos to a gelato restaurant that prides highly on its other dishes as well. Great consistent standards.
