About our Restaurant
Fresh, Flavorful, and Unforgettably Italian in the Heart of Longboat Key
At Ventura's Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar, we bring the warmth of Italian hospitality and the vibrant flavors of the Mediterranean coast to Longboat Key, FL. Whether you're joining us for a relaxing dinner, planning a private event, or grabbing something to-go, our food is always made with passion and the freshest ingredients. From handcrafted pizzas to indulgent pastas and signature martinis, every bite tells a story rooted in family, tradition, and taste.
Our main location offers a full-service experience in a laid-back, beach-inspired setting—no white tablecloths here, just great food and good vibes. Join us for Martinis & Meatballs Mondays, make a reservation for your next special occasion, or explore our curated wine selection at the bar.
Coming soon: our new, casual pizzeria-style venue, perfect for quick bites and third-party delivery—opening in just a few weeks!
