Barrique Venice is a quietly refined Italian restaurant where handmade pasta, coastal California ingredients, and the artistic rhythm of Venice combine in a dining room that feels both intimate and thoughtfully crafted.
Located along Venice Boulevard near Abbot Kinney Boulevard just a few minutes from the Abbot Kinney shopping district and the Venice Canals, this understated neighborhood restaurant sits within one of Venice's most creative culinary corridors.

What you didn't know about Barrique Venice.
Barrique Venice reflects a modern interpretation of regional Italian cooking that emphasizes technique, seasonality, and restraint.
Rather than overwhelming dishes with heavy sauces or elaborate presentation, contemporary Italian kitchens like this focus on the balance of a few excellent ingredients. Handmade pasta, olive oil, fresh herbs, and carefully sourced seafood or meats form the foundation of many dishes. This philosophy draws inspiration from Italy's regional traditions where the character of the ingredient defines the meal. In Los Angeles, chefs have embraced this approach by pairing traditional Italian techniques with California's year-round access to exceptional produce.
