Venice Pizza & Deli

Love this deli. My boyfriend and I go often. I love the prices too.

I have no idea what the other reviewer here is talking about. Venice Pizza is a very unpretentious restaurant in a land of pretension. What you see is what you get. You can find a solid selection of pasta and pizza at Venice and if you live nearby, you can have it delivered. Maybe avoid the philly cheese, but other than that, check your attitude at the door, have a slice and enjoy whatever’s on the telly!

I am not a Slav. I wish I was a Slav because of their ability to drink alcohol to the point that others cannot withstand. I once heard that after a Slavic mother gives birth, she only lets the child drink her breast milk for the first month of life and then it’s off to the grandparent’s home for the Olympic training of drinking.
If you’re ever in Hollywood, look around you… you know who they are. They constantly have a beverage of choice in one hand and another one to follow. Even the heavy pouring bars cannot avoid the drought after a Slav has entered their establishment. Slavs are like vampires except they live on alcohol and suck the life out of a heavy pouring bar any day of the week. I am baffled how some of these bars are still alive after one of them has been there. Some of the Slavs never leave Hollywood, so just be careful when you’re in the area. They might drink you under the table.
So I received news there was a Minus Sausage Soirée at East. Hosted by our lovely CM, K.B. I knowing that I had once made a crucial mistake of going to an event starving mad, I decided that I was going to be smart this time and have something prior to my arrival.
In .2 miles, I had a limited choice of food places to stop and the wifey didn’t want to be late. I knew that tonight the mission was to get inebriated and enjoy what East had to offer, but I didn’t want to get sick so I decided to to step foot into this establishment. I ordered my slice of cheese pizza. The guy working was having a difficult time ringing up my order but was smart enough to get the pizza ready while he figured out how to use the register.
As I waited in the dining area, I noticed that of all the pizza places I had to go to, this was rated a B. Yikes! Too late to cancel. I got my slice of pizza and shared it with Andrea. The pizza was OK. I wasn’t there for ambiance, I was there to stuff my face with carbs and that was it. A cheese slice was $ 3.00 plus tax.
I made it to East and by the end of the evening, I noticed that the Slav had drank someone under the table. Sure hope that girl was okay.
Venice Pizza & Deli saved my empty stomach.
