| - Met a girlfriend for dinner. It is located in the Aria, right next to the sportbook. I rarely go into CC due to it being so difficult getting in to, but meeting my friend was totally worth it. I came in on a Friday, during a very stormy monsoon out on the Strip, As soon as I showed up Valet had to be closed due to the lightning and heavy rain. then I went into the self parking. The walk is a little long getting in there, but the food made-up for the long walk.
Now to the food, I was impressed with this upscale pizza place! It had a fun vibe, and the decor was very nice. I tried the polenta with egg! YUMZ!
For a salad we shared a beet, peach, frisee and hazelnut composition. Beets and peaches! Can't go wrong!
My favorite was a bread with cheese and garlic sauce! I ate like 3 pieces! Carb overload right?
The pizza was amazing, I believe it was the Gotham. Pepporoni and sausage. I absolutely loved the crust. It was chewy and crunchy at the same time, and you can just tell there's something different in the water they use. It couldn't have been Vegas water. We don't have crust that good with the water from the faucets in town. Idk what the secret is, but I loved it.
For dessert we shared an ice cream sandwich and chocolate custard w lavender. The custard was yumz! Got thicker the further down you went:) Not too impressed w the sandwich.
The place is friendly and casual, still with a nice ambience. It was child friendly as well. It was nice to see Chef Shawn putting his finishing touches on the pizzas and other dishes.
