Decided to try Buddy V's when I was out with one of my friends since we both had been wanting to go. When we arrived, they told us that they didn't have any tables available. I could see that there were open tables, so I'm not 100% sure this was true. My friend mentioned that he was an employee at the Venetian, so the hostess said she could seat us in about 10 minutes. They put us at a table in the back corner of the restaurant with empty tables all around. I wasn't a fan of being put back in the corner. It took a bit for our server to come to our table, so the experience didn't start out too great.
I thought that the food was okay, but nothing to write home about.
I haven't been back since, and I honestly didn't even think about Buddy V's last time I was thinking about going to an Italian restaurant on the strip.
It's possible I might give it another shot.
