Really Lovely and accommodating staff and brilliant food. It is a small business, so wait times can be longer when it's full, but still well worth it! Group gatherings can be a bit more difficult as we found the manager hadn't really given our requests to the staff on the day and it was a bit stressful. But the staff who were in still did all they could to help solve the situation and made it a wonderful experience nonetheless!

Delicious food, excellent service. I had the fish of the day.. Two sea bass fillets, in wine sauce, with fresh vegetables. Followed by a lemocello sorbet, capped by an espresso and an amaretto! Was replete! A lovely dining experience in a simply decorated peaceful restaurant.

This restaurant is a real Italian gem right on Kings Heath high street. Great menu choice, all home cooked, delicious, authentic and fresh. Lovely relaxed friendly service and decor. Family friendly. Give them a try! And like us I’m sure you will return again and again. (We need to try the pizzas next time 😊). Just up from Loco Lounge, car park opposite if you’re driving and don’t manage to bagsy a space on the road. Highly recommended and supports our local businesses.

Hi all our 3rd Vist here and Nice atmosphere but sadly I wouldn't have written this review had it not been for the very rude manner we were subjected to by the MANAGER and owner. ! 1st the table booked for 7.30 wasnt ready...not a problem but to wait for 20 mins without even a suggestion to wait and have drink. We walked up the high st until ready. The problem started when we ordered a capresse which had meat on. Having already placed the order we ordered again then ordered starters again so wasnt our fault our starters were wrong. The waitresses werent communicating. I was then questioned Gestapo style didyou not read the menu ? I was embarrassied and I apologised as it was my 14 yr old who asked for a capresse. Then when it came back they simply took the meat off rather than prepare it again.. I let that slide again then I was shocked to see our mains arrive luke warm...I noticed that there was a huge party of 30 guest so the manager was in a panicky state. Our food was left waiting for services while the owner took a large drinks order. She came back and said you have to order everything now. Again the main s were sent back. then when the bill came no apology or anything so i spoke up...so rightly I mention that it was disappointing and that they can make things better but she became rude then went around the whole restaurant saying I would not pay which was not true. Only when she became really aggressive I refused to try and calm her. ( me calming her!@#!#) hoping she would come to her senses.. The family was so upset having just had a celebration to have it ruined by a single person. The waitress were so frendly and even confessed she is short tampered I bet you she will now take this out on her staff. Vile lady with no sence of customer service. I had to apologise for my behaviour to othe⁶r customers as I was left with no choice but to replicate her bad behaviour. I did pay when she finally took one main off...price 13.95 for 3 pieces of avioli. You can understand when that's served luke warm it tastes awful. Well it's up to u, would u except that service? Never have we received such bad service anywhere.. absolute disgrace to and an embarrassment to have a manager to run a restaurant treat customers that way. I suggest stay away. Keith Lawrence

Not to keen on the Vegetarian Pizza, I found it a bit dry and not too many veg on it. My first choice from desert menu wasn't available, a bit annoying but the ice cream I had instead was nice.

Ordered through uber eats. Linguine ai frutti di mare, garlic bread with cheese, tiramisu and sauted potatoes. Tiramisu and potatoes were fine, nothing rave about, but the other two dishes were disappointing. Linguine and sauce were OK but there was only few small mussels the size of a thumb nail and few small prawns. Not enough by far. Garlic bread with cheese turned out to be pizza with cheese. Disappointed.

First visited the restaurant with my partner during the Eat Out to Help Out scheme and we loved the place.. Really intimate and local restaurant feel but also gives the sensation of being on holiday abroad which feels nice right now.. Anyway we were always keen to go back after lockdown and booked a table this weekend. Just love it. Food is amazingly cooked and delicious, service is discreet but always someone around to help, very friendly, genuine family vibe and the atmosphere is lovely. I had carpaccio to start and fillet of beef main, partner had prawns and the fillet too.. Can't fault. Really reasonable prices for the quality and cooking..just a total pleasure and has definitely become our local choice to escape the high street. Would so recommend. And we got complementary Lemoncello too after finishing our sambuca coffees. Go soon and support this local gem.

The scallops were slightly under for my liking because they were quite big although purists would probably say they were perfectly cooked so it’s just a matter of personal taste.

Greeting very welcoming, once it became clear we weren't ordering lots of wine it became lukewarm. Food arrived after 45 mins. The side of vegetables was 1 vegetable, boiled cauliflower. The saute potatoes where 5 limp chips. The main was over cooked, the pizza strangled in cheap cheese. When we asked for more drinks the beer and coke arrived but the glass of water didn't, other tables ordering more wine got their drinks. When the bill came it was an astonishing £75, for 3 main courses, 2 beers and 2 cokes. It turned out that an extra main course had been added to the bill (£18.00). When confronted the waiter revealed that he needed acting lessons. A completely horrible experience. Don't go.

I've eaten here a few times now and always had a lovely experience. The food is always great (even during the 'eat out scheme' where I've noticed other places have dropped the ball somewhat) It's biggest strength though imo , lies in the intimate and authentic ambience of the place. (Note:The owner has recently expanded the restaurant at the back, which has meant the beloved fish tank has disappeared, but I must admit ,it is looking good! )

Having had a lovely meal at the restaurant earlier on this year, we decided to use the takeaway service so as to ensure a nice meal at home for my 50th birthday (not ideal but due to COVID-19 we were left with no choice). We chose food for four people made up of pizza, calzone, garlic bread and fries. We received a cold and incorrect order and was told by the delivery man that we’d have to contact the restaurant in order to sort it out. We tried several times to call but it just kept going to voicemail, we left messages for someone to call back but nobody did. We were therefore left with inedible food (it really was disgusting) on a day that we should’ve been going out for a lovely meal (not to this restaurant I might add). We are more annoyed by the fact that we’ve been unable to contact anyone (we’ve sent emails too) - if you offer a takeaway service you should at least be on hand to resolve any problems. We spent nearly £50 on food that was inedible and in part, incorrect. On that basis, we’ll be expecting a full refund (but we won’t hold our breathe!).

Después de 10 minutos aproximadamente, preguntamos si nuestra mesa estaba lista y nos dijeron que los comensales anteriores todavía no se habían ido. Los camareros no se disculparon de ninguna manera y no nos ofrecieron una bebida complementaria ni nada mientras estábamos parados en medio del restaurante.

When trying to apply the discount (2 for 1) he refused to apply it on the two starters we had ordered and was incredibly rude.He did not care about the customer service and quite honestly ruined her birthday. the manager even told us to just go to 'prezzo or pizza express' next time - quite frankly we will because the food here is no better. If you are gonna use a discount here make sure you clarify exactly what they offer because they don't seem to follow the same guidelines as the actual discount website. They will be nice to you until you have an issue, just avoid the headache, theres far better italian restaurants in birmingham.

The filet medium cooked was tender and so juicy also for the delicious Chianti souce on top of it.

The restaurant has a good choice of meals - this is a huge plus and most of the food was tasty. Delicious soup, garlic bread, mains chicken was fresh and really tasty. I was a little bit disappointed with the chicken in the pasta as it was not fresh and it tasted like a cheap ready pack of small pieces chicken from the shop. Besides this, the food was amazing and I really liked the design inside. It is a little bit pricey but it is worth to visit this restaurant sometime.

It is the typical Italian restaurant that was very popular 15 years ago. And even then it wouldn't have been good.

A little gem of a restaurant on the the main high street in Kings Heath in Birmingham. Welcomed when myself and the wife came in the door. We were there to celebrate a pals 50th bday party, it was my first time at Veneziano. We were shown upstairs to where the party was taking place , the room was a good size and had a good warm atmosphere nicely decorated and clean . Service was very good and prompt. Staff were very caring and accommodating, fine selection of food on menu spoilt for choice. When the food arrived it was nicely garnished and tasted wonderful. Good bar and drinks selection, however no cider on tap bottle or can. This was the only downside for me but it wont detract from the fact that I had a lovely evening in a lovely restaurant with lovely friends. I really rate this little gem of a place. Io consiglio al 100% questo ristorante è un piccolo gioiello. se vuoi la tradizionale fiera italiana, allora non cercare oltre questo è il posto dove divertirsi e rilassarsi, oltre a cibo eccellente.

Would have been better if you had ignored us instead of laughing and rolling eyes at us for ordering a pizza.

Have walked past this restaurant hundreds of times and never really noticed it but was looking for an Italian that was local and saw the reviews so decided to give it a go - very pleased we did! We had steak and lasagne for mains which were both lovely - the steak looked amazing and perfectly cooked. Olives- lovely and garlicky. Tiramisu for dessert was delicious. The bread rolls weren’t great (heated up from ASDA multi-pack?) but that was the only thing that wasn’t 100%.

This was an impromptu mid week after work visit and wow this place is a little gem, beautifully decorated, pleasant and friendly staff and the best part the food was just beautiful, the salmone tagliatelle was delightful and at only £8.95 a meal will definitely...

....but for some reason have never visited Ristorante Veneziano until last night with six friends when I discovered just how much I’d been missing. Of our seven starters, one was a little disappointing in that it was not as described on the menu, that said, it was far from inedible. All our mains were delicious; nicely presented, hot and tasty. Both desserts were delicious as were the seven liqueur coffees. And, the complimentary drinks afterwards were much appreciated. The staff were attentive and friendly and despite being the last to leave, we were at no point rushed or hurried along. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable evening, so much so that I’ll be booking again in between Christmas and New Year when I’ll deserve a treat, and a break from turkey (dinner, curry, with chips and sandwiches etc!) Would I recommend? Absolutely, loved it!

Un salto para el servicio de almuerzo. Relación calidad-precio fantástica en 9 libras por dos porciones de tamaño saludable! Amable y servicial patrón. Sin duda volveré a probar el menú de noche. Altamente recomendado, una auténtica joya en Kings Heath High Street.

Mi esposa y yo fuimos allí sin reserva y nos dio una cálida bienvenida. Había una buena sección de ofertas especiales así como el menú. Ambos disfrutamos de nuestra entrantes y los platos principales que elegimos. Precios razonables y un entorno cálido, recomendaría comer aquí.

We have eaten in this restaurant many times - and we have honestly never had a bad meal. We would go so far as to say the best most authentic Italian restaurant in Birmingham. Gino and his team are always very welcoming and friendly and whether you order pasta, steak, chicken, fish or pizza it is always delicious. We have eaten in the week, and at weekends and it is always good. We held a party with over 30 guests all eating a 3 course meal and the food was cooked to perfection and piping hot for all guests. We have also been just as a couple/family and we have never been disappointed. Great food, lovely people and really good value for money.

From the moment we entered the restaurant we were warmly greeted and hosted. The setting was comfortable and quiet. We were able to have conversations without intrusive music or background noise. The food was excellent; obviously freshly prepared and full of flavour. we would definitely visit again.

Ate here with my husband on a Sunday evening. The restaurant was quiet. The wine was good and the breadrolls that were brought to the table were lovely and fresh. We both had chicken for mains which was a bit overcooked and therefore dry. The sauce was very good and the side of potatoes and veg was really good but the portion was really small.

Great food nice staff and would definitely go back. One thing that stopped them getting 5* was that they told our friends that on a Sunday the 1/2 course deal finished at 5 which was fine but when we left at 7 we saw the sign which said on a Sunday till 7 which I think is quite cheeky. It's a shame because as we left we said how good it was. Regardless we will go back but it definitely was poor service.

We had a beautiful meal at Ristorante Venezia which made our anniversary very special. Starters of calamari and aubergine wrapped mozzarella were mouthwatering. Main courses of fillet steak, lobster filled pasta, sauté potatoes,a large side salad and a substantial garlic bread were tasty and plentiful. We partnered this with a lovely Montepullciano which was perfect. Our desserts were a tiramisu and a medley of ice cream. We rounded the meal off with coffee and liqueurs. Service was good and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. A wonderful meal and a lovely ambience. We will return again.

Couldn't talk more highly of this lovely restaurant, which for me is an authentic Italian haven away from everything. It is literally like stepping off the high street into Italy. Took my family, not for the first time, to this place. The welcome and service couldn't be warmer and the food was just mouthwatering. I had the white bait followed by a wonderful rich, spinach and prawn risotto. The steak, which my partner had, along with the meatballs for his starter, were also delicious. The manager there really makes the experience - he's definitely the heart of the restaurant and nothing is ever too much trouble - very professional, accommodating and gracious, plus he has great taste in wine, so worth asking for recommendations if ever unsure! The only downside - the fact that the wonderful food and my evenings there eventually have to come to an end, making stepping back out onto that high street so much harder!

Ahhh Pizza by Goli, the enigma. The atmosphere is top notch and it is ALWAYS busy. The good on the whole is great, I'm not 100% convinced on the freshness of some of the pasta, however. But on the whole the food is tasty, if not a little on the pricey side. But let's talk about the elephant in the room. The service. I just can't 😆. Every time I've been here the service is literally non-existent. It feels absolutely chaotic and there's a real lack of attentiveness. If this was any other restaurant, I'd never recommend or return. But these guys somehow manage to get away with it for me. I have no idea why! There's a chaotic charm about the place, waiting staff rarely check in, rarely refill drinks and even just the wait to order or collect the bill or get the card machine just feels like a lifetime. But somehow, they get away with it. I'll continue to go, but I honestly don't know why 😆

First time visiting Ponte Di Legno and I was very impressed. Firstly, I must admit to not being a fan of Italian food, but this was an exception. Upon arrival I couldn’t believe how busy it was with a que forming from the inside and continuing outside which shows how popular this restaurant is. Luckily, I booked in advance and was seated very quickly. The staff here are very friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere was cosy and well laid out to accommodate many people on both sides of the restaurant. We were well looked after and didn’t feel forgotten at any point. The food here was amazing! I ordered the prawn starter and lamb shank for the main. As a lover of lamb, this was highly satisfying and the meat melts in your mouth. The gravy on top was also delicious. We also shared a range of breads which were all amazing in taste. Really pleased to have discovered Ponte Di Legno and would recommend anyone to try this place out, especially if you’re a fan of Italian food as it’s not likely to disappoint in my eyes with great quality food and preparation. Thank you to all the staff and I shall be returning in the future to sample more of the menu!

I have been dining at Laghis for a long time. This was probably my last time though. We were told the restaurant was closing down soon. This is a sad news for me. I have had so many nice memories of good dinner with dear friends in Laghi's.
