The Venice Cafe,

163 W Erie St, Kent, OH 44240, United States

"Full disclosure, used to hang here 50 years ago when supper was a 40 oz bottle of Strohs and a pizza. Didn't expect the Strohs but disappointed they did not have pizza. Food was tasty, more of a hipster cool thing, like goat cheese balls and tofu jambalaya. Server came to our table twice, then disappeared when her shift was over, without notice. Had to hunt down the bar manager to pay the bill. You can't go home again"

"We started off with the breaded mushrooms very good, I had the chicken tender basket, which the cook did an awesome job on the chicken tenders. My husband had oyster po Boy he also enjoyed his food"

"Horriable ownership. Was super rude to us simply playing pool during dinner time..why have pool tables if Your going to be rude to the players? Owner acted as an employee then laughed when we asked for a manager and turned around to him. Place is a joke."

"Stoped in this gem today for breakfast at Erie St Kitchen but given its Saturday and game day, there was a bump ordered from Venice Cafe. Beautiful presentation and delightful delivery!"

"The menu says Erie Street Kitchen, but it is inside The Venice. I went on a Saturday night at 6:30, and it was pretty busy. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. You order food at a counter and wait for it to be delivered to your table. We had a chicken tender po boy with hushpuppies and a lobster roll with lobster bisque. My friend liked his po boy and when asked if he would order it again he said absolutely. My lobster roll was the best one I've ever had. I travel for a living and have had them in many cities on the coast and was shocked to sample one that was so tasty and jammed full of meat this far from an ocean."
