Great lunch spot! Had the banh mi sandwich subbed with grilled chicken, so so good. (my friend had the same - so I cannot comment on the other options - YET - I will be back for sure) Our server was courteous and funny. I would highly recommend this place.

A bit of a hidden gem, with an eclectic menu that has something for everyone. Great vegan choices and plenty for the carnivore as well. Usually easy to find a table for lunch but recommend reservations for dinner. Parking at the front access can be a little difficult but there are plenty of spaces on the other side of Carr Mill - just walk through the old Mill building!

★★★★★ 5.0 Ian Stroszeck · May 2024

Delicious and eclectic selection of food options - there's something for everyone! I had the bibimbap bowl with a special soy sauce on the side which our server recommended. That, plus the fried chicken and mashed potatoes were incredible. Be warned though - make sure you park in the right spot. I noticed 5 separate tow trucks taking cars away. Read signs carefully

Venable is one of my favorite restaurants. The staff is so kind and the food is delicious. The fried chicken with arugula is one of my favorites. Nothing on the menu is bad.

Went here for my partner’s mother’s birthday and had an absolutely incredible meal. We had the shrimp crab cakes (day’s special appetizer), butternut squash soup (soup of the day) and for my entree I had the fried chicken with the mashed potatoes. The shrimp cakes and soup were both 9/10, the chicken was 10/10, and the potatoes were 11/10. The only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is that my partner ordered a cocktail and when the waitress asked what type of whiskey he wanted, he said whatever the bar recommends… and they used a whiskey that doubled the price of the drink. Even though he said he deferred to the bar, someone (anyone, I’m not blaming the waitress, her service was otherwise impeccable) should’ve come back to our table and asked if a price increase was okay.
