Venditori's Italian Restaurant

Very good authentic Italian food! We had lasagna, chicken alfredo, chicken parmesan and pizza and everyone enjoyed it. The garlic bread and salad are really good too! The atmosphere is quaint and charming for being such a large restaurant. Service was also excellent.

This was my first time to Venditori’s and I went with some girlfriends of mine. We got there late after work but service was still great and we didn’t feel rushed to leave. The food was fantastic. I ate the manicotti. SO GOOD! Also, house wines were only like $5 a glass which wasn’t too bad for a girls night out. It’s definitely worth a try if you haven’t eaten here yet.

I read a lot of very good reviews about this place and thought I would give it a try. Staying at a hotel close by, so it is an easy choice.
First, I wish they had a bar area for the single travelers to sit at. They do serve beer and wine and it is a decent selection of house wines. Monday is half price bottles which is nice. I was excited about the salad and it had a lot of items in it. Beets, beans and lots of shredded cheese. It was just ok as it was not cold when served and the lettuce was limp. Dressing was better. All of the meals served around me looked like heavy sauce and heavy baked cheese. The mussels entree looked awesome. Not exactly authentic, but everyone seemed happy. I settled for the personal pizza which was good and not too filling. My server was Amy and she did a great job. If the salad was colder and fresher, they would get 4 stars, but in my opinion, this is not a 5 star place. Did I mention Amy was attentive without being overbearing? I will come back again and try a pasta or seafood meal.

This place never fails to impress. Since moving away from the area, we try to drive the 3 hours one way occasionally to enjoy the great food and fantastic service. Seriously, eat all the garlic & butter rolls you can, Vampires won't be a worry for months.

One of the best Italian restaurants that I've had the pleasure of visiting. The staff was efficient, kind, and attentive. The ambiance is peaceful with beautiful lighting and decorations, extremely cozy atmosphere. Their menu is vast but our entire party was thoroughly satisfied with their meals. From the bread in the beginning to the perfectly put together desserts, it was an awesome dining experience. I would assume that it costs a little more than most local restaurants in the Auburn/Opelika area, but in my opinion, you are getting a good deal for this rare excellence. You will most certainly be just as pleased with your choice as I was.
