  • We weren't planning to eat here and hadn't even perused the menu online. One of the reasons I had intentionally not put this restaurant in the "must try category" was the less than 4 stars on yelp which are abundant in Vegas. Yet somehow, we found ourselves hungry at lunch and no plan...a bit of an anomaly for an avid foodie/yelper! Sometimes flying by the seat of the pants is so much better though. Walked passed Mon Ami Gabi and were both tempted go back as their steak/frites and moules/frites are a safe bet. But time to venture to something new and I remembered that Giada's was just another block up the strip. As we headed up the escalators in the Cromwell, two ladies were descending and their friend hollered up...."how was it?" One called down..."I had the lobster roll which was fantastic!" I looked at my husband and said, "it's gonna be pricey...but I don't care how much it is...I've been craving a lobster roll and I'm going to order it!" So we sit down in this gorgeous very un-las-vegas-ey style restaurant....meaning bright and open with awesome feng-shui. I was hooked as soon as I melted into a nice comfortable club chair with a good amount of space between tables. In addition to the lobster roll (which was a whopping $37) we ordered the Salumi Picante pizza that totaled only $16. They were both really beyond fantastic. The salumi was nothing like I've tasted before...a bit spicy but not too oily. The crust was on the thicker side but light and airy at the same time. Giada knows her pizza! The lobster at first looked small...that was deceiving because it was open faced so the entire 1 1/2 inches on top was all lobster. We decided it must have been well over a pound of lobster perfectly dressed in the lightest aioli with fried capers...never would have though of that but it worked well. In fact, this was one of the best lobster rolls I've ever tried. They get knocked one star because wine by the glass is pretty steep so we ended up getting a bottle of French wine on the lower end of the price range...Vouvray Francois Pinon. Our server immediately informed us that they serve that one by the glass at Spago where he used to work and it is delicious. Ok, that made us feel better about our choice, and much to our surprise, it was the perfect choice....light and not too buttery or oaky. The service was wonderful and even with the steep wine prices I would definitely return.
