| - A friend told me about Giada and as we've seen her several times on Food Network and enjoyed her show and recipies, we decided to give it a try when we were in Las Vegas over Thanksgiving weekend. We were not disappointed with the decor, service, views and most importantly, the food! I read some of the negative service reviews prior to making our reservation, but we didn't see any evidence of that during our very delicious and relaxing lunch at Giada. They promptly took our order, checked on us several times and repeatedly made sure our water glasses and coffee cups were filled. Service was effective and prompt without being uncomfortable or rushed. So sit back and just enjoy this dining experience!
They offer beautiful views of the Vegas strip from most of the tables at Giada and you'll enjoy the warm and airy decor. We started off with the Orzo Meatballs which were very good, but not astounding. I then ordered the Italian Chicken and Waffles for my entree and my husband ordered the Salmon Cake Benedict. It was one of the best Chicken and Waffles I've ever had and I've had many! The chicken was cooked to absolute perfection. It was served warm, flavorful and crispy without being greasy. The cacciatore sauce was as delicious as it was beautiful, savory and oh so right. Now I'm not a big fan of waffles, but the polenta, parmesan waffles were amazing. They were light and savory and the perfect pairing with the fried chicken and cacciatore sauce. Do yourself a favor and order this dish! We ate at several fine establishments in Las Vegas, but this entree stands on its own. Wow, I was so impressed with the flavors and preparation that made this dish so unbelievably delicious! I wish we had this restaurant in SF!
