| - If for no other reason, then you should come to Bootlegger just to get away from the Strip! I avoid the LV Strip like I avoid Times Square at home. It's just a constant mess of tourists, even if there are some really good restaurants along the way.
Bootlegger is a pretty casual place. Nice atmosphere to it, though. Tables aren't too close, it's not too loud.
The wine list isn't the most extensive or diverse, but it makes due. You'd just love to see some more international flavor, though.
Also, the bread was okay. Not great bread - it's kind of in little squares. I prefer a big fresh loaf coming out of the oven personally.
For the positive - my entree was fabulous. I had the pappardelle with bolognese. Sauce was spot on, and the pasta was cooked perfectly. The portion was really good size, especially for the price, so we definitely left full.
We ordered creme brulee for dessert, though in fairness, I was so full from everything before, that I couldn't give it an accurate assessment. The texture was right, though haha.
To top it off, our waitress was fabulous. Great personality, great recommendations, not too pushy.
There are a lot of restaurants in Vegas to try. I won't make a special trip to Bootlegger every time I'm in Vegas, but I would definitely come back here.
