Little Venice: Life is Good at LV

Overall rating: 8 Pizzas out of 10

The Pizza: 8 Pizzas out of 10
Pizza Style: Americana/Buffalo
Life is good at Little Venice, the pizza has lots of Toppings every bite had either a mushroom or a slice of pepperoni, the dough is made fresh on the premise and the oven is brick-oven hot. Someone in your group not want pizza? Little Venice has a full menu too. Oh, yeah, they also have an awesome bar and fantastic booths thanks to a new addition in '07 that doubled the size of Little Venice; one side has booths, large tables and a salad bar, the other side has a friendly and welcoming bar complete with a motorcycle perched on top.

The cheese was nicely browned on our cheese pizza making the cheese flavor sing out. The pepperoni on our mushroom and pepperoni pie was lively with a nice hint of heat.
The crust is fresh and enjoyably chewy, the center is thick and moist and the ends are wonderfully airy and crisped on the outside. A hot oven brings this never frozen dough to life.
The sauce is robust and full with a sweet undertone. We felt there was a bit too much sauce on the pie for our taste, but ample sauce is a hallmark of Buffalo-style pizza.
Salty - The pepperoni had some salt to go with the good taste.
Insider's Tip: Get the large over the small - the large is only $2 more but the size difference is substantial and more than worth it as the slices are easily twice as big.

The Service: was friendly and helpful. If you are from Ithaca the speed of service should feel OK; if you are from NYC/LA the service in the far restaurant might feel slow so try sitting close to the bar, or at the bar, and you won't feel neglected.
