Went to a wedding, hosted in one of their banquet halls. The atmosphere was amazing and the food delicious! Staff were wonderful, and friendly.If you intend to grab a drink at the bar, PLEASE be careful not to drop [or throw] your glasses into the fountain. Although I did get a laugh from having my pensive gazing into the fountain interrupted by the realization that I had been staring at a very lonesome cocktail glass sat at the bottom like a sunken fish. ?

We had our wedding here on July 3rd and everyone in our party raved about how much fun they had. The food and appetizers were amazing. From the owner, all of the staff there, and especially Ruby, they were all wonderful and everything ran right on time. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Thank you for helping make our wedding a wonderful day.

I am in from NY for a wedding. I ate here last night. And I must say the mixed grilled seafood for two was amazing. The lobster perfectly cooked. The rack lamb was delicious. I loved that they had a few slot machines in there. Made my evening even better....

My son and daughter in law brought me for mother's day. At first we saw the price and were going to go somewhere else but instead decided to stay. There was so much food but a lot of it I couldn't eat because of a gluten allergy, but there was more than enough to fill me up. We had endless mimosas which were included with the meal which was very nice. The prime rib was amazing and the service was excellent!!!! Overall I was very impressed. The facility is beautifully designed and decorated. Overall it was well worth the cost. I just wish more restaurants would cook with gluten free breading and serve gluten free bread. They do make gluten free bread crumbs or I even use corn flake crumbs to bread my meats at home and the kids love it!!!!!

What a beautiful place to have a wedding or event. The marble floors and fountain pool beneath the stairs is impressive. I like the seperate entrance for events and the restaurant. Hopefully the restaurant entrance and bar will receive some updating TLC. The stain on the wood bar stools has actually been worn through from use. There's plenty of room and comfy chairs to enjoy your meal. We arrived on Sunday and opted for the $34.95 buffet. A rarity these days. Wonderful prime rib and Italian dishes abound. A few more deserts would be a benefit but the German chocolate cake and pecan squares were great. Fresh fruit was also nice. All in all, a nice atmosphere that is based on service and friendliness. We actually enjoyed watching the Indy 500 there. They treat you like an old friend. Tony in the bar and Frank, the GM are great. See you soon!

Wow!!!! I can not wait to go back!! I actually have a reservation for next week. :). Called on a Saturday night and spoke with Frank. He was so helpful and so kind. He was able to get us a table right away but we couldn’t stay long because of other reservations. We were so appreciative that he got us in, we said we would “eat fast!” The place has an old Italian feel. The food is off the charts. They have a ton of entertainment throughout the week with some bigger names in the lounge.Even though he got us in, we knew we needed to order, eat and go but they never gave us that rushed feeling. They made us feel like we could enjoy our meal and leave whenever we wanted.I’ve been here in the past, always for the entertainment and sat in the bar. I knew the food was great, but I only had appetizers. Both spots are amazing! If you want the nice dinner feel, you can’t go wrong eating here! If you want a great bar atmosphere and want to snack on some appetizers… that’s also a win! Italian food is my favorite. I can confidently say, best Italian food around. I was leaving the next morning for California and while I was on the plane, I thought of my delicious leftovers that I wouldn’t be able to eat! I was so bummed! At least my fiancé got to enjoy them! I’ll get more next week. :) oh! And the prices! Incredibly reasonable!!! We are getting married in less than 3 weeks. I wish I would have thought about this place when looking for our venue. Our guest would have talked about the food for years to come!!!

Where do I begin? A place so near and dear to us since it’s very first location! We were lucky enough to get married there last weekend. Of course, the food was excellent, the staff was unbelievable, the amenities were stunning- all thanks to our coordinator, Ciara, who helped execute the most perfect wedding reception. Ciara was prompt, flexible, commutative, and understanding. I swear I could put her as my emergency contact with how quickly she’d respond to emails. The day was nothing short of perfect. We also deeply appreciated the owner, Frank’s periodic check ins. They were so attentive throughout, making our guests feel right at home. Whether a small dinner, birthday party, or big event- Venuti’s couldn’t be a better venue.

Food was delicious! I also enjoyed the atmosphere as well as not being rushed like other restaurants make you feel. The rigatoni alla panna was so tasty, and the mozzarella sticks tasted so fresh. Will definitely be coming back again, great place for a date night ☺️

Beautiful venue for my sister’s baby shower!! Excellent staff from the planning to Ciara to the service on the day of!! Food was phenomenal!!

Food choices were amazing. Beautifully prepared. Great service too.
