Although cafe venetia is one of the rare places open past 9pm in the Bay Area, there is a significant issue with the service. I have rarely seen such slow and oblivious staff. It is as if they are floating in the stars and not present at the cafe. The drinks are slightly expensive, and I would completely understand charging a premium if the quality of the ingredients used was good. The cream inside the chocolate mousse or pudding uses a cream with a vegetable oil base which makes the whole chocolate base undrinkable. At least use high quality dairy! If you are charging a premium and taking pride into the fact that this is an Italian European cafe, I expect a better quality of products to be used.
Excellent restaurant, it was amazing! Definitely recommend to try. Staff is quick and very professional, service is great. I love Italian coffee and it's delicious here. Hot chocolate is of the right consistency and very rich in taste. You can also buy Italian desserts and pastries here. Croissants were very tasty, the vanilla cream was just right in terms of sweetness. The chocolate mousse was very delicate and tasty, I recommend trying it. Great place, I really liked everything.
Hands down the best European Cafe in the Peninsula. You must try any drink that involves the hot chocolate. I can 't think of anywhere else you 'd get such thick and rich cup of heaven (not even at Ghirardelli Square). The pastries are amazing. The atmosphere is classy and crisp. And unlike some of those artisanal cafes, the prices are normal. Absolutely will return every time I 'm in PA downtown.
Great cozy place in the middle of Palo Alto downtown. Good for grabbing an afternoon wine or coffee and do some people watching. Come here for the ambience and neighborhood not necessarily for the food.
Love the vibe and coffee. Their chocolate moose is the best. They have outdoor and indoor seating with space to work. Will definitely visit when I’m in the area.
