  Venezia is THE best restaurant in Midland. Our friend group comes here to celebrate birthdays, engagements, promotions, you name it. We come just to hangout with each other and eat delicious food and drink the BEST WINE SELECTION! You honestly can't find this selection at most steakhouses in Dallas.

• Review: Ashley on Yelp described it this way...

We loved the filet mignon with the house salad and the mashed potatoes, carrot, and asparagus. Well, it was my husband's but we shared everything in the end! I ordered the tortellinis and that was one heavenly dish! Usually a restaurant portion of tortellini is small but this was massive and sinful with the wine sauce. He also did a half glass of the moscato and loved it.

Wow! Thank you Garlic Press for bringing "upscale" dining to Midland. I just moved here and am a self-proclaimed foodie. My boyfriend booked a reservation for the day before Valentine's Day.  The bread and roasted garlic was so nice, I LOVE garlic.

• Review: Michael M on yelp says...

this was quite the surprise when we found it.

We had the three dip appetizer, chicken enchiladas, baja fish tacos, and piggy pizza.  Not a soul was disappointed.  The food was wonderful.  Licking the sauce out of the to-go container later on was just as good as it was in the restaurant.

Service was great.  Food was great.  Everything was wonderful.

Amazing food!
My husband and I have not been out to dinner with out kids in tow in over a year so we wanted to go somewhere nice, quiet and delicious. Librado fit the bill!

We started with drinks, I had the key lime martini (dangerously good!) He had a bourbon on ice

Then we ordered the seafood tower with Tails, shrimp & scallops.
This was absolutely perfection
I will recommend it over and over again. That butter-lemon sauce is so good.

• Review: Craig G on Yelp says....

We've gone once or twice a month since finding the place late last year.  We also take out-of-town guests there because the food quality and presentation are excellent.  The portion sizes, value/prices, service and overall ambiance are about the best we've found in Midland or Odessa.  Clearly the place to try if you are in the mood for Asian cuisine.
