Best Italian Restaurants in Near the Strip

The feeling of being in an outdoor Italian piazza is an experience that takes me back to when I lived in Italy. It was refreshing to have a waitress from Rome, who spoke Italian and was familiar with the food, culture, and language. And the food was as good as you'd expect from a place like this. I had a fillet and my wife had the snapper. They were both very good.

went for MEATBALL was delicious! the beet salad and whipped ricotta and shrimp scampi were amazing

Great restaurant. Portions are huge! A little too huge for me but it was delicious and the service was amazing

Really good food here without the stiff robotic typical Vegas “fine dining staff.” If you’ve been visiting Vegas a while you know service isn’t what people envision of Vegas of the 90’s; the unfortunate new normal. But Allegro is a solid choice amongst a sea of namesake high-end venues. Despite the notes on the reservation stating it was my birthday my server never mentioned it. I was dressed up and everything. Didn’t ask if I was celebrating or what brought me in. Again, I’m not a fan of hyper-active servers but no introduction other than “Hi I’m your server and we have some specials” was not his best in my opinion. I had to remind the server assistant that it was a birthday and he then brought a treat. I remembered the server from my last visit, but he didn’t remember me—Even in the same section. Other than that service was acceptable and food was quite fresh and fairly flavorful. Also, the drink from the bartender that night was on point. Many Vegas bartenders don’t know how to properly make espresso martinis but mine was perfect. The manager dresses as if she is going to a front row Versace fashion show (I think she is Italian) and runs her restaurant quite well. The number of Maitre’Ds however, seemed excessive for the evening: a lady and gent periodically wondering around aimlessly, not seating anyone. Hostesses are usually pleasant. My hope is that they would read the reservation notes next time, because if not what’s the point of a reservation.

Very good food. definitely would go back again…….love it
