VENETO is a dining experience that brings to life the history, culture, and traditions of a region in Northeastern Italy. It's a warm, enlightening setting that leaves bodies, minds, and spirits nourished through quality, handmade cuisine — best shared in good company, with love.

Our menu honors year-round classical favorites and seasonal specialties from the region of Veneto, with ingredients coming from Italy and the finest local purveyors. But it's the experience around those elements that you won't forget.

Being at VENETO is like being in Amy & Marco's home. It's a warm, inviting environment curated with one-of-a-kind antique European furniture and accessories, from the hundreds-year old Italian sofa in the dining room to the Italian marble in the restrooms. We want you comfortable, relaxed, and immersed in Italian culture as you ponder the menu, soak up new knowledge, and enjoy inspired conversation along the way.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Veneto and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic evening. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, making sure every detail was perfect. The menu offered a wonderful selection of authentic Italian dishes, each bursting with flavor. I started with the hand cut beef tartare, which was fresh and delicious. The wine menu is out of this world and second to none! Overall, Veneto exceeded all my expectations. The combination of excellent food, outstanding service, and a cozy ambiance made for a truly memorable dining experience. I can’t wait to return!

    This restaurant is outstanding!!! The true and best Italian cuisine in the country. Only in Italy you can find such a superb food prepared with very top quality ingredients, in the finest restaurants. I wish we could have this type of restaurant in Houston.

    Fabulous gem of a restaurant. Competes with best anywhere. Each course was exceptional, service good from young staff, wine list deep. Amazing addition with 3 top restaurants within 100 meters. A taste of Italian haute cuisine in SLC.

    Great food, but missing that special touch. My husband and I are foodies who love a good dining experience, often spending $200-400 each visit. We enjoy spending time together and look for restaurants that appreciate customers like us. The food here deserves 5 stars for its quality, taste, and presentation. Everything we tried was delicious and top-notch. We opted to sit outside, which was nice, but not particularly romantic. Watching people walk by added a bit of fun, though. Our server was excellent, knowledgeable about the menu, and gave great recommendations. We would have gladly tipped him if it weren’t a tip-less restaurant. However, we were put off by the $12 cover charge and the $75 corkage fee. I could understand if we were in Chicago, LA, or New York. It seemed absurdly high because most high-end places in Utah don't charge more than $25 for corkage, and many don’t charge us at all. We had a couple of overpriced glasses of wine from the menu. We would have preferred our own bottle but not with that fee. We ended up going elsewhere for drinks after dinner. The second course options were good if you like beef and are okay with the portions and costs. There aren’t many lighter options if you fill up from the first course, other than Branzino. I was surprised there wasn’t an option for chicken or another type of fish on the menu. Knowing it was our first time there, it would have been nice if the chef, owner, or manager had stopped by our table to greet us, making us feel more welcome. Instead, the experience felt like a business transaction. While the food was outstanding, there are many fantastic restaurants in Utah, and other than the food, nothing else stood out enough to make us want to return.

    The food here is amazing. We visited Italy earlier this year and have been missing the authentic Italian taste, Veneto is absolutely authentic. Amazing pasta. Amazing wine. Awesome atmosphere. Cannot recommend enough.

    No dessert wine. Paid for 7 course with wine pairing, but only served 6 glasses of wine. Food was bland. Waiter was not friendly. Hostess was very nice. It was an experience, but won't go back. Definately did not get $600 worth.

    Thanks for your feedback (here +Google). Of course we wish you loved your experience like the majority of Guests do, we're appreciative of the oppty to respond to your comments. Detailed menu +wine pairings +pricing is avail. prior to ordering, so not sure how you were disappointed. Our somm's decision to not incl. a pairing w/dessert was intentional, traditionally in the North of Italy this dessert is served w/hard alcohol…unfortunately because of our liquor license (beer+wine) we can't do a proper pairing. Your polite & professional server happily offered you a BTG dessert wine to add as many Guests do, but you declined. If wine were paired w/dessert, the price would have increased. Next time (anywhere you go), if enjoying a glass of wine w/dessert improves your experience, you should.
