Venice on Vine is a long-standing nonprofit establishment in OTR focused on helping provide work and reform for individuals facing barriers to employment, such as incarceration. And so, it is one of the few eateries in OTR truly focused on improving social good. The service is very friendly, the food is basic Italian fare (subs, pizza, pasta), and the prices are very reasonable. It's not the fanciest food in the neighborhood, but that's also not the point. The prices are very reasonable for what you get and everyone is very polite. They provide lunch service 6 days a week and dinner service 2 nights a week. We really need more small, local, value-based places like this in the neighborhood (and the city) vs another expensive place from the big restaurant groups or chains.

A young man named Matt greeted us when we walked in and he was very friendly. He remembered that we needed to get to a show so offered recommendations that would come out quickly. Our pizza came out fast and was delicious! I got the gluten free crust and was expecting the typical cardboard taste but it was actually really good!!

Absolutely terrible, slow service. We ordered 4 waters (there were four of us, 2 couples) and the waitress came back with two glasses and set them between the couples (did she expect us to share???) We had to ask for two more! When I asked about the gluten free pizza (on the menu) the waitress checked with the kitchen and said they had it. A while later the other couple had their food brought out. An HOUR goes by and we ask about ours at the counter. THEY DIDNT HAVE ANY GLUTEN FREE PIZZA AND WERENT EVEN PLANNING ON TELLING US. They started making my husband and I salads that we didn’t even order. We told them to forget it and walked out. The absolute worst restaurant experience I have ever had. I have no idea how this place is still in business.
