| - We met some friends at Capos Italian Restaurant (their only location now being on W. Sahara Ave in LV, NV. We loved the other location and were hoping that the new location would be just as good or better. Please note that we are a couple that go out to dinner often, we like all kinds of food and are willing to pay for great service, food and ambiance.
Our journey here began when we went into the private room entrance and we were asked "how many are in your party." For those of you who frequented the "other" location, this was a first of many touches that are now gone from the "new" location. We were then asked if we wanted to sit at our table and wait for our friends.
We opted to have a drink at the bar. The bar is actually opposite the open kitchen which is very HOT and not comfortable at all. The bartender, who was a very good one, was talking to us about schedule issues for the staff and how she was supposed to be there in the morning and not the evening......etc, etc. Not exactly a welcoming opener to our dinner.
Our friends showed up within a few minutes and we were escorted back to a back booth in the restaurant. I asked if it was a good table and was told it was "superb". Ah, if they only told us that a large party was going to be sitting in front of us! The noise was so loud I couldn't hear the people next to me talk. When the singer began his act, the place was way over the top loud. In the other location, the singer interacted with the people in the restaurant. This was not the case here.
The restaurant air-conditioning was almost non-existent and actually become extremely uncomfortable. No, I wasn't having a hot flash, I was HOT! Is this a sign of the restaurant not being able to afford their energy bill??
Our waitress was very nonchalant and really not very friendly. We ordered drinks, and then dinner. The menu is extensive although no eggplant dishes which was weird for an Italian Restaurant. The food was just "okay". We have definitely had better and for way less money.
One of the ladies in our party had a shrimp dish and the shrimp was almost hard as a rock and way overcooked. When the Chef came around to ask how things were, our friend said that her shrimp dish was way overcooked. His response, "thank you for letting us know", and moved on.
We had a piece of cheese cake for dessert with caramel sauce and it was worse than store bought cheese cake. The flavor was simply "okay". Not great.
We did use a Restaurant.com coupon which saved us $30 but the coupon also stipulates that 18% gratuity is added to the check. I would skip this restaurant and this coupon.
With so many choices for GREAT Italian food, I would definitely avoid this restaurant and try some of the GREAT ones here in Vegas.
