Fantastic Italian food. The old school Italian restaurant has great meatballs and entrees are all outstanding. Great wine selection and the desert is outstanding. Expensive but worth it.
Christopher FranzeseOctober 27, 2014From specials to standard menu to the staff, everything was extraordinary. Had Bronzino, Braciole, Carpaccio di Polipo, Cavatelli di Cinghiale, and Arugula salad. First time 25 Oct 2014, going back.
Melissa WilfleyApril 12, 2014Supposedly oldest Italian restaurant in Brooklyn - beautiful table in the front with full floor to ceiling windows that open, perfect for a spring afternoon
Buford BarnesMay 29, 2012Established 1906, continuously family owned and operated except for recent closure. The Venetian Room features 70 year old mural of Venice. Norther Italian fare with old Brooklyn atmosphere.- Buford BarnesMay 29, 2012Established 1906, continuously family owned and operated except for recent closure, during which it was heavily remodeled and the 70 year old mural of Venice removed. Norther Italian fare.

Bresaola Pizza with truffle oil, mushrooms and baby spinach. Get it, eat it and be transported to Nirvana.
Oldest Italian restaurant in BK! Try the brick oven pizza or homemade cheesecake!

"Lots of great choices but my favorites: any of the negronis, chicken livers, sage pappardelle, olive oil cake."
Amanda King - 8.9
"Really enjoyed the chicken liver with fried onions and bread. Also highly recommend the frutti di mare - the octopus, sardines taste amazing, and large portion size. Great backyard!"
Scy DV - 8.8
"Menu changes everyday and never disappoints. 1 starter, 1 main and 1 salad is perfect for two"

"A wonderful venue for live music in an odd corner of Bklyn. The hall's not so big wherever you stand, there's a good view. Staff: kind & mellow, beer menu: interesting, plus: there's a photo booth!"
