I'll be honest, when I go out to eat, usually Italian is the last option on my mind. While I enjoy it at times, I rarely have cravings for it. I've been to Lidia's twice now because the people I'm with wanted to go. But each time I've been thrilled with my dining experience. The service has been great and the food has been excellent. I typically don't like tomato based pasta sauces which at Lidia's is no problem because they have such a wide selection of pasta and sauces.
I've had the pasta trio each time that I've gone and I've really enjoyed it. I've also tried some of the other dishes from the people I'm with and they all have been great. Really enjoyed the Wild Boar Ravioli - delish!
If your in the Strip and happen to stroll by Lidia's you should check it out b/c you won't be disappointed. I'll also add, that I'm not a big Tiramisu fan, but Lidia's is the only place that I not only eat Tiramasu but I enjoy it and becomes by dessert of choice.
