When practicing social distancing, it is difficult to support restaurants by dining out like we normally would. Restaurants that rely on us, especially during this time of year when they are supposed to be at their busiest, are facing difficult choices about how to move forward. These are the same restaurants that donate to our local charities, sponsor our kids’ sports teams, and provide relief when our community is struggling.
Support Local Restaurants with Gift Card Purchases

Keep in mind that you can still support restaurants by ordering takeout, curbside carryout or delivery. However, if you are nervous about being out in public, most restaurants offer gift cards that you can purchase now and use at a later date. Below you will find a list of restaurants in Venice that offer gift cards, with links to either contact them directly to order or to place an online order. Many of these restaurants are also offering deals when you purchase gift cards as an added bonus!
*Note: This list will be updated as frequently as possible with new information.
