    Our return to Bootlegger was a pleasant experience. Still a great atmosphere and the meals outstanding. Our server was never over the top and we enjoyed his friendly demeanor. The drinks were rather small in size and on the pricey side. Defiantly a good vibe all over. Friendly staff on arrival and nice being asked how the meal and service was on our departure. We'll return in the future as the entertainment calendar piqued our interest.

    I always make it a point to eat at the Bootlegger on every Vegas Visit. Service is always excellent, and food never disappoints. Rhonda was our Server, and she was excellent. The owners are very nice and the history of this restaurant is amazing.

    In short, great place and would definitely recommend and come back.... My wife & I (and some friends) are from NC and came to Vegas for a 5 day conference/mini vacation stayed at the South Point Casino. I found Bootleggers recommended on social media and checked it out. Flew in Thursday afternoon and had reservations at 5:30PM for 4 people. We arrived at 5:00, were seated (not many other tables occupied) and for the next 2 hours thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our waiter Alfredo was attentive and informative as to the vast amount of selections, recommendations and options. What I was most impressed about was how the staff worked as a team - silent and effective. Water filled, used plates removed, moved at a fast pace, everyone helped each other to get the job done. The food came out of the kitchen by another "team" and based upon the notes they had, they knew where every plate was supposed to go... no yelling out "who had the spaghetti.....?" Just a well trained team, a very pleasant experience, the way a quality restaurant should be run. By the time we were done and left, the entire restaurant was full and people were waiting for tables (on a Thursday night). Most of the patrons were locals and this is truly a gem of Vegas. Thanks Bootleggers for a memorable dinner!!!!!

    Great food. Great service. Was a bit noisy, but overall a great experience. The place was packed because of convention week.

    Mark, our waiter was full of energy and enthusiasm for providing excellent service. This is our fifth time at the Bootlegger and Mark is our fifth server. All of them have been beyond excellent. The atmosphere is one of enjoyment. The food is amazing. My daughter got the ravioli with rose sause and I got the Saltimboca. It takes slightly longer to make but is so worth it. We always get the creme brulee and a tiramisu to go because they are both amazing, but we are too full to have more than one shared dessert. The Bootlegger never disappoints.

    Old school Las Vegas Italian. Food was good. We were there for lunch. Service was not good, especially in the beginning to get set ups, service, bread, etc. Didn’t seem typical of the service that you saw that I’m sure is their standard.
