Venizia's is a new Italian Restaurant in Southaven on Main Street just east of Millbranch on the north side. I haven't had a chance to eat inside there yet but last week we ordered take out at work. I got Chicken Parmesan and it was good. It wasn't great but it was good and it was reasonably inexpensive. I don't remember how much my total was but I think the entree was $10 or so.

My coworker got another chicken dish and she said it was okay. I hope to get a chance to go there and eat inside soon. I think the food will be better fresher. Often at work we order food and then by the time we get it eat it it's not longer hot. In particular the garlic knots that it came with would have been better hot but by the time I ate those they were cold. This was not the fault of the restaurant, and I should mention that the portions were large.

I will make a new post once I get a chance and maybe I will be able to give them a better review. Don't let this dissuade you from going though. Like I said, what I got was good.

Mis Pueblo, Southaven, MS

Mi Pueblo (not to be confused with Mis Pueblo, a different company) is a Mexican restaurant in Southaven, MS at the corner of Goodman Road and Elmore Road in the shopping center on the southeast side.

I can't believe I've never blogged about this place before because I've been there a number of times over the years.

Most Mexican restaurants about about the same with a few notable exceptions. Mi Pueblo is one of the better choices. Their food always seems fresh and I like everything I've had there. Their queso is also particularly good and they give you plenty of it. A large is enough for 5 or 6 people, maybe more.

I met a friend there last week for lunch and ordered a chicken quesadilla which is what I typically get at a Mexican restaurant. It was very good as always and not expensive. I ordered off the lunch menu and I believe my total was around $10 including a drink and tax.

It's one of my favorite choices and it's conveniently close to my house.
