| - Came here for a romantic Anniversary dinner after seeing great reviews by other Yelpers and we were definitely steered in the right direction.
We had made reservation a week in advance and were hoping to get a table with a view of the Bellagio fountains, though they told us they can't promise and that we will have to try our luck when we arrive. We made it to our reservation on time, yet we still had to wait 20 minutes, which was alittle annoying considering we had made reservations. Though we didn't get a fountain view, we were too hungry at that point to care.
Our server immediately bought out a bread basket with a trio of olive oil, eggplant and honey butter. THE BREAD WAS INCREDIBLE!!! My favorite was the salami and cheese filled one (I still dream about it). For appettizer we got the MEDITERRAEN OCTOPUS, which was cooked just perfectly! For our entrees we got PRIME FILET OF BEEF and RAVIOLI FOIE GRAS AND DUCK. Though the ravioli was underwhelming, there was lot of ravioli squares which really was great. The filet of beef, on the other hand, was absolutely amazing. It was perfectly cooked and the softest beef I've ever had in my life. This really was the greatest dish I've ever eaten in my life and I was beyond impressed.
For dessert, we had mentioned that it was our anniversary and were given a chocolate cake with HAPPY ANNIVERSARY writing, which was a lovely surprise. Sadly,. the cake was very dry but the ice-cream helped.
In all I would highly recommend Scarpetta and would love to come back here for our next Vegas trip!!
