While today is World Pasta Day, and you’ll probably see millions of posts celebrating pasta, if you ask an Italian, every day is a good day to enjoy it!

Pasta is so much more than something we eat -It’s part of who we are!

It’s the sound of a busy kitchen, the smell of a sauce slowly cooking, a family gathered around the table and the inevitable discussion about whether the pasta is “al dente” enough! 😂

At 2 Veneti Restaurant we’ve spent 20 years celebrating the beauty of Italian cooking, where good ingredients, tradition and a little patience make all the difference.

And while the world continues to reinvent pasta, we still believe that some of life’s greatest pleasures come from keeping things simple.

Because a good plate of pasta doesn’t need a special occasion.

Just a fork (no spoon, please — il galateo italiano has spoken! ), a good appetite and perhaps a glass of good w**e!

Buona Giornata Mondiale della Pasta! ❤️

In Italy, an aperitivo has never been simply about having a drink. It is a moment to slow down, meet friends, exchange a few words and enjoy something delicious before dinner begins.
But perhaps, more than anything, it is that brief moment in the day when everything changes pace.

That first sip of w**e, the first conversation, something delicious arriving at the table… a simple ritual that marks the transition from the demands of the day to the pleasures of the meal to come!
In Veneto, frying has long been part of the culinary tradition, from the famous fritto misto to the simplest seasonal vegetables.
And while courgettes may seem like a humble ingredient, prepared this way they become something rather special. Light, delicate, wonderfully crispy and rather difficult to stop eating!
Perfect with a chilled glass of Prosecco, an Aperol Spritz, or, as some of us prefer, a Negroni , a little snack to share while browsing the menu.

At 2 Veneti, we have always believed that good food doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes, the simplest dishes are the ones that bring the greatest pleasure.

Un’ombra, qualcosa da mangiare e due chiacchiere!

Chef Stefano is clearly counting down to the weekend! 😂

A little music, a hot pan, some ravioli and a chef who’s definitely feeling the beat!

Happy Thursday and happy almost weekend! 🍝🎶

Basta no xe mai bastanza!
Enough is never quite enough!

Especially at Christmas, when it comes to good food, good w**e and the pleasure of being together around a table.

In Veneto, Christmas is about traditions, familiar flavours, long lunches, another glass of w**e… and always finding room for one more slice of Panettone with a generous spoonful of homemade zabaglione!

At 2 Veneti we bring a little of that Venetian Christmas spirit to the heart of Marylebone.

And when it comes to zabaglione… basta no xe mai bastanza!😂

Some dishes come and go. Others become part of who we are.

Our Fegato di vitello alla griglia con fagiolini, salsa al Marsala e scalogno has been on our menu since the very first day we opened our doors, 20 years ago.

Grilled calves’ liver with French beans, Marsala & shallots sauce.

Over the years, the recipe has changed very little. But one small change has a story behind it.

Originally, the liver was lightly dusted in flour before cooking, a technique often used in traditional recipes.

Then, one of our longstanding customers, who loved the dish, could no longer enjoy it because of the gluten.

So we changed the way we prepared it.

Not because it was fashionable. Not because we were following a trend. Simply because we wanted someone who had been coming to our restaurant for years to continue enjoying their favourite dish.

And in doing so, we discovered that we didn’t need the flour at all.

Sometimes the smallest changes make the biggest difference.

Twenty years later, it’s still on our menu. And when we read comments , calling it his death row main meal, we can’t help but smile! 😂

Because for us, hospitality has never been just about what we put on a plate. It’s about the people who sit around our tables.

20 years of 2 Veneti. One unchanged philosophy. And a visit that makes us incredibly proud!

When two of the most respected voices in British hospitality decide to visit your restaurant, it’s a moment worth celebrating!

A huge thank you to Jesse Christopher Burgess from TOPJAW and Adam Byatt Michelin-starred chef for visiting 2 Veneti and sharing our little corner of Veneto in Marylebone.

(And yes, Adam… we ARE in Marylebone! 😂)

For 20 years, we’ve stayed true to what we believe in: authentic Venetian cuisine, genuine hospitality, traditional recipes and, above all, the pleasure of bringing people together around a table.

No reinventing ourselves to follow trends. No changing our identity. Just the same passion, the same philosophy and the same love for what we do.

To be recognised and appreciated after all these years, especially by people who know and understand hospitality so well, means the world to us.

And the comments on YouTube? We’ve absolutely loved reading them! 😂 From Simon’s classic Italian style to the appreciation for our traditional dishes, you’ve made us smile.

Head over to TOPJAW’s YouTube channel to watch the full video and see what Adam thought of 2 Veneti!

As always…Magna e tasi, bevi e godi!🍷

Simplicity. Simon’s favourites. And the patience of our Head Chef Stefano!

Venetian soppressa and chiodini mushrooms. Two ingredients, one combination that captures the flavours of autumn.

Soppressa, with its soft texture, delicately spiced flavour and beautiful balance of lean meat and fat, with the chiodini mushrooms, small wild mushrooms with a rich, earthy taste that brings the woodland to your plate.

A simple dish that needs very little else.

And then there’s Simon… when he really loves something, there’s no such thing as moderation! So much so that our Chef Stefano ends up ordering practically the supplier’s entire stock!

But if Simon loves it, why shouldn’t we share it with our guests?

Because that’s what 2 Veneti is all about.

It’s the story of childhood flavours, of growing up around the Venetian countryside and those little traditional osterie where food, stories and traditions were shared around the table.

It’s that very same tradition we’ve been bringing to our guests for the past twenty years.

Trends come and go. Fashions change. But seeing our guests return and see their children, now growing up themselves, and having the privilege of introducing a new generation to the flavours we grew up with, the ones that shaped our culture and our memories, is something truly priceless.

Because in the end, food is not just about what we put on the table. It’s much more than that!

Magna e tasi, bevi e godi!🍷

A little bitterness, a lot of character… and no, we’re not describing Simon’s wife! 😂

We’re talking about radicchio, of course!
One of the Veneto’s most treasured ingredients, loved for its beautiful deep red colour, distinctive flavour and incredible versatility.

From the fields of Treviso to the tables of Venice, radicchio has been part of our culinary tradition for generations.

Grilled, roasted, or perhaps in a creamy risotto? We’ll leave that to our Head Chef Stefano!

At 2 Veneti, our specials change daily, depending on the seasons and what catches Stefano’s eye at the market.

So, let’s see what our chef has in store for us… one thing is certain, radicchio season is officially here!

Prosciutto cotto alle erbe con insalata russa fatta in casa.

In Venice, insalata russa is a cicchetteria classic — found behind the counters of traditional bàcari, spooned generously onto tramezzini and enjoyed as part of the everyday ritual of “cicheti e un’ombra”

At 2 Veneti, we serve our homemade insalata russa alongside thinly sliced herb-roasted ham: simple, generous and unmistakably Venetian.

Another dish celebrating the flavours and traditions we have carried with us for 20 years.

Buon Appetito

At 2 Veneti, our passion has never been only about w**e.

Long before 2 Veneti, Simon began his hospitality journey behind the bar in Monza and Milan, before moving to London, where his journey continued first in Soho and later in Mayfair.

It was there that he developed his passion for the art of a well-made drink — balance, flavour, attention to detail and the pleasure of creating something for people to enjoy.
All these years later, that passion is still very much alive.
Duse Delight is one of Simon’s creations — a tribute to the legendary Eleonora Duse, one of Italy’s greatest actresses, who made Asolo her home and chose it as her final resting place.

Aperol, Select, Prosecco and limoncello come together, celebrating the signature flavours of the Veneto region and the stories behind them.

A little Veneto, a little theatre, and a little piece of Simon’s story in every glass.
Duse Delight — a drink with history, part of our history.

Unfortunately, we do love doing things the old-fashioned way…

Cooking from scratch.
Taking our time.
Opening the good bottle.
Knowing our guests by name.
And believing that dinner should never be rushed.

20 years later, we haven’t quite managed to break the habit!

Asolo in our hearts. Veneto on our tables

A beautiful new addition has arrived at 2 Veneti: a print of Asolo, generously donated by .asolo.montello following the wonderful events we hosted in collaboration with

More than a picture, it is a reminder of our roots—the hills, traditions and generous hospitality of the place Simon still calls home.

For twenty years, we have proudly brought a little piece of the Veneto to Marylebone. Asolo has always held a special place in our hearts, and now it has one on our walls too.

Grazie di cuore, .asolo.montello 🥂

Twenty years of 2 Veneti, one Venetian dish at a time.

Our content is our food, our story is written around the tables, and our greatest ambassadors are the customers who keep coming back—week after week and year after year.

This month, our twentieth-anniversary celebration of the Veneto continues with moscardini al pomodoro con polenta grigliata - tender baby octopus slowly stewed in a rich tomato sauce and served with polenta.

Simple, comforting and unmistakably Venetian. No unnecessary fuss—just the kind of food that makes you reach for another piece of polenta to collect every last drop of sauce. And yes, that is absolutely encouraged!

Available throughout September as a starter or main course.

Come and celebrate twenty years of 2 Veneti with us—preferably hungry and thirsty!

Magna e tasi, bevi e godi.

It’s not often I welcome guests I can almost look straight in the eye… but Adam Byatt and Jesse Christopher Burgess came very close!

It was such a pleasure to welcome Jesse and Adam to 2 Veneti.

For the past 20 years, I’ve wanted our restaurant to feel like more than simply somewhere to eat. It’s my home—a little corner of Veneto in Marylebone, where people who truly love food can experience genuine Venetian cooking, warm hospitality and plenty of good conversation around the table.

Jesse’s passion for restaurants is infectious, and I admire what he and the team at TOPJAW do to celebrate our industry and give a voice to everyone—from small independent restaurants like ours to some of the world’s most renowned establishments.

And Adam—what an exceptional person, an extraordinary chef and a brilliant ambassador for British hospitality.

Thank you both for joining us, enjoying our food and listening a little of our story. It was a privilege to have you around our table.

In Italy, coffee is never simply a drink. It is a ritual, a pause, a conversation—and the perfect way to bring a meal to a close.

This beautiful photograph, taken at 2 Veneti by Food Photographer Carla Barber , was selected as a finalist in the World Food Photography Awards a wonderful recognition of a simple moment that captures so much of Italian culture.

An empty espresso cup, the warmth of the afternoon light and a little more time spent around the table.
Sometimes, the most meaningful moments are also the simplest. ☕️
