| - This place is amazing! Here are my top 5 reasons why:
1. They cater to VEGANS! If you're dining in, you can request the vegan cheese, which is tofu-based. It melts PERFECTLY. I even asked the server to double-check because it was way believable! I ordered the Verdure pizza (zucchini, eggplant, artichoke, mushrooms & spinach, sans the pecorino & mozzarella since they're dairy). I even made it more flavorful by topping my slices with my arugula salad, which came with a light, yet flavorful vinaigrette. I'm over here still trippin' out about the tofu "cheese." Delish!
2. The ambience. The inside of the restaurant is so detailed and designed with a baseball stadium in mind. Silver bleachers actually hang from the high ceilings and the tables are made of ash wood, the same exact wood used for baseball bats. Dope! The bar chairs look fresh too - I found out that they're actually repurposed oil drums shipped from Italy. Faaancy. The bar is right next to the kitchen, so there's a lot of action going on around here.
3. The patio. We chose to sit outside since it was a nice day. It felt so mellow and laid-back, yet you get the energy from all the people walking through The LINQ's outdoor shopping plaza. Plus, gazing at the High Roller while munching on some pizza slices isn't too shabby, either.
4. The location. I mean, I'd still go here even if it weren't at such a cool shopping space, but being at The LINQ makes it even cooler. If I want a vegan dessert, I'm only a couple of steps from Sprinkles, which serves up red velvet vegan cupcakes upon request. Holla!
5. My hubby was happy. :) He enjoyed his food, so I know we'll come back to visit! He's not a vegan, so he enjoyed clam pasta and these fancy schmancy-type grilled cheese sandwiches (Mozzerella en Carroza if you want to get technical). Needless to say, he gobbled everything up!
We're locals, so to say we'd back to a Strip resty means a lot. Plus, the staff was friendly and catered to my dietary needs. Anyone that doesn't give me "the eye" for being vegan is coo' peoples in my book, ya feel me!
I recommend dining outside (definitely at night during the summer months!) just because the people-watching and High Roller view is awesome. But the inside is cool too, especially if you want to experience that baseball stadium / buzzing bar scene. I'm just hoping the vegan tofu cheese is here to stay!
Oh, and if you're looking to eat on the go (like hitting up a show at Brooklyn Bowl - aw yee, that kinda rhymed!), there's a convenient walk-up pizza window to the left of the resty.
Get your pizza on!
