Ive been to Ventano many times, and I've never had a bad experience. Their staff is attentive and the food is great. Recently, I started going there at night. I did not know this place had a bar with gaming machines that stays open all night.
First of all, the bartender is great. This guy Matt, he can truly make a drink. He spent a lot of time advising some of the regulars about wine, and he made me an original cocktail that was amazing. I ended up staying super late.
Second, they have a late night happy hour that starts at midnight where ALL FOOD IS HALF PRICE!!! So you get food that is very good, for half price in the bar. Love it.
