Venezia Restaurant

Venezia sits directly on the water in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood, where floor-to-ceiling views of Boston Harbor and the city skyline have anchored the restaurant and events venue for over 25 years. The kitchen takes an authentic Italian approach, with handmade pasta, fresh seafood, and locally-sourced ingredients that earned the restaurant a spot on OpenTable's "100 Most Scenic Restaurants in America" list and a 2020 Diner's Choice Award. For private events, the Grand Ballroom accommodates up to 350 guests beneath floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the harbor, with a dance floor for evening celebrations, while the more intimate Waterfront Room seats 50 to 100 for corporate meetings, showers, birthdays, and smaller gatherings. A white marble foyer with a grand mahogany staircase serves as a cocktail-hour gathering point, and has hosted live piano music for arriving guests. Outside, an expansive waterside patio, a white marble gazebo, and a dockside walking path give couples and event hosts additional settings for photos against the harbor backdrop. Full-service catering, a dessert bar, and late-night snack service round out the venue's offerings for weddings, anniversaries, bar mitzvahs, and corporate functions.
