| - My girlfriend and I were directed here by her Italian professor. Having lived most of her life in Italy, she said that Settebello offers the most authentic Italian cuisine in Henderson and Las Vegas. I am sure a few establishments on the Boulevard would protest, but based on flavor alone, I would have to agree. I grew up visiting the Italian restaurants along Federal Hill in Providence, and unless you are in New York, you probably cannot find more authentic Italian dishes in America.
Unlike those opulent Italian eateries of my youth, Settebello is simple. Tasteful country, dark wood tables in an upscale, modern open dinning area match the menu's simplicity - pizza, appetizers (antipasto and salad), and dessert. In a way this reminds me of classic American diners, where In-N-Out draws its inspiration from. A few dedicated items, carefully prepared, creates a tastier, and in this case more authentic dish.
Any pizzaria west of the Mississippi is traditionally met with skepticism, but Settebello returns me home to the streets of Federal hill, thin crust, warm, authentic mozzarella, and refreshing tomato sauce.
When visiting Settebello you will feel at home in casual attire or business casual dress. The service is prompt, and for an open dinning area, the atmosphere is surprisingly quiet. My girlfriend and I were on our way to a film, and the pacing was perfectly comfortable as well as timely.
