I spent a lot of time at Canaletto in the early 2000s but was disappointed with it when revisiting it this past week. Ten years ago the food was authentic and beautifully presented, but the other night the best praise I can muster would be "passable." None of the five in our party felt that they had anything special.
Canaletto, with its "outdoor" seating in the Venetian's version of Saint Mark's Square, is still a nice enough place for an American, albeit uninspired take on Italian food. But with so many better food choices in Vegas I can recommend it no longer.
