My 3rd visit this week. I have now tried breakfast lunch and dinner. Breakfast was really good! The service was spectacular today. We had a great server for a lunch party of 13. And again for brunch. Dinner service on 12/17 wasn’t great. Overall highly recommend

As an immigrant from New York I feel that Nostra Tavolo is the closest thing to a good Italian restaurant in NYC. I will definitely be going back and have been there several times since their opening. The food tastes fresh and well presented and fits the definition of Italian cuisine, "Good ingredients properly prepared." On December18th the place was packed and quite noisy, but the food was very good, which made the noise seem less bothersome. Definitely an asset in Clark County.

They had me at Focaccia! This restaurant is a total gem. Wonderful intimate ambiance, great staff, nice to see the chefs working away in the open kitchen. The food will keep you coming back - I know I will! I visited with a friend and we shared focaccia bread and three dishes and then each had a dessert - so perfect!!! Top notch fresh ingredients make the difference here - Yum!

Had a lovely Thanksgiving Day meal. Food was very good and plentiful. Our server was very efficient and friendly. We looked out on a beautiful park filled with colorful fall foliage on a crisp November afternoon. Picture perfect. And found free Holiday street parking.
