In Vegas for a convention and the Lyft driver recommended this place…read more One word review: WOW I have had a lot of Italian food in my life and this place really stood out... maybe the best I have ever had! We came with four people, and everything was delicious. 1. Veal Parmigiana - excellent 2. Spaghetti Aglio e Olio (added meatballs) - excellent 3. Veal Piccata - excellent 4. Complimentary garlic bread - excellent (TIP: Get some Gypsy Sauce on the side!) The interior is very crowded with a lot of people, furniture, and a live musician (who was great). Location is probably the only downside (a bit far from the convention and other hot spots).

When they mention "Vegas the way it used to be" it is absolutely right!…read more The food: classical Italian staples like cioppino, lasagna, chicken marsala and veal at an affordable price point. I've had the eggplant parm and spaghetti, and they are both flavorful and robust. Not to mention, the portions are very generous! You can easily share a plate with 1-2 other people. Service: excellent! The servers have worked here for years, so you know they have pacing down to a science. Drink orders were taken right away. Then warm bread is served. Apps are dropped with time to digest a little before the meal. Servers check in without being overbearing. The entertainment also makes for an unforgettable experience. They sing the classics and encourage the cowed to join. It feels like your home, or at least visiting Nona's Sunday dinner. What I love about supporting this place is that they explain why tiki culture is popular with Italians. I had no clue. When I saw a tiki bar attached to the restaurant, I just thought it was a gimmick, but after reading about it, I thought it was the coolest thing. I love how they preserve this unique collaboration and influence of Polynesian culture. Also, my hubby is a big fan of the Jersey Shore. We had to check it out since they filmed there several times. One of my favorite places in Las Vegas. It's definitely a fun and cozy vibe.

After listening to some recommendations, I opted for the salmon carciofi, which came with a white wine sauce that had a good amount of acidity from the capers. The salmon and pasta were good portions, and it was a very satisfying meal! Service was great, they were very accommodating for us given we had such a big table and the restaurant was so busy. I also appreciated that it was around 10 minutes off the strip, which made it a nice escape from the busy streets. I would definitely come back if I was in town!

The crust has that perfect thin, crispy Roman snap that is so hard to find. Fiori di Zucca: Their squash blossoms (stuffed with ricotta romana) are delicious--delicate, crispy, and the quality of the cheese really shines through. The Tiramisu: Make sure you save room for dessert! This was hands down the best tiramisu I've ever had. It's incredibly rich and creamy without being too heavy. The service and atmosphere at Fontainebleau only added to the experience. If you're looking for a soulful, high-end Italian meal in Vegas, this is it!"

However I ordered with Steve who helped me decide which pasta I would love more. Very articulate human. I recommend asking him specifically if you can't decide. :-) The agnolotti was really unique fresh and lovely. I got a side of sourdough toast - which was Smokey and strange to me because usually that means in grilled same place as meat. They explained how it's done here and no meat grill is involved so it was actually an interesting thing. After deliberation I got the untoasted ungrilled version which was great with the butter and salt. It also actually made a lot more sense with the dish soup I can soak the sauce with the bread. I would have gotten the west of eden cocktail but had a headache. They do batch make them but in house. Not sure why but when I walked in I was told it's a 20 minute wait for a seat at the bar and then when I got sat in 5 minutes I noticed a ton of spots on the bar open and some tables as well. I tend to think it's like a "thing" to have people wait in LA too - but I don't run a restaurant so not gonna assume I know anything about that. It's Monday after EDC. It was full but not insanely loud. Quite pleasant ambiance. The experience is strong overall, though the pricing is difficult to justify. I paid $52 for a pasta dish and a side of bread after tax and tip. That is more than any Italien place I have ever went to (which are all the fancy places in LA and a few around the world). I don't think that's appropriate or called for, but obviously this place is extremely successful despite that. Just something to consider. I had no idea.

Great crispy exterior and i can honestly eat one entire portion myself! Their pizza is perfectly prepared as well, nice bouncy crust, no questions there. Well seasoned and portioned with adequate amount of toppings for each pizza. Their pasta is also very fresh, flavour profiles are as described. I would say I wasnt a huge fan of some of them, but you definitely get what is described on the menu. Service is overall good, nothing out of the ordinary but you'll definitely have a great time here. Book early because its hard to get reservations!
