Staying at the Wynn so decided to check out Bartolotta for my gf's birthday dinner. The inside was big and spacious but the outside patio seating was amazing! Pond or Lagoon in the middle with several metallic like balls it was real different and pretty in the daytime. The table sections all had draperies, just like a cabana style. Very romantic and just gives you a happy vibe. The menu has several pre fix options as well as family style and your regular menu.
_Risotto ai Frutti di Mare. An appetizer pasta dish. It was rather small but still pretty big for an appetizer. The risotto was nicely al dente and luckily it was not too rich or heavy. The scallops, shrimp, lobster, clams, cuttlefish and octopus were all listed but I did not taste all of the seafood. I wish there was some shells do you knew what fish was what because it was all just mixed in so they all just look like similar white fishes. Other than that a great starter.
_Pollo alla Riviera Ligure. Pretty presentation. The chicken was cooked nicely and juicy. The lemon herb sauce was a tad rich and pretty salty. Came with some vegetables and mushrooms that were a nice compliment to the dish since it did help with the saltiness of the sauce. Nothing too spectacular, but not bad either.
_Filetto di manzo al Sangiovese. The seared filet of beef was cooked perfectly. The filet was very juicy and a great rich texture. Not sure how I felt about the wine sauce. It was a bit strong and overpowered the steak a bit for me. Accompanied with potatoes and vegetables, a great dish to get if you love steak.
_ Lobster Pasta. Don't remember the name but my gf got this dish. It was some appetizer lobster pizza in a red tomato sauce. The pasta was small and since it was an appetizer size there was maybe just one big piece of lobster. The pasta was cooked nicely al dente. The dish itself was real tasty and the sauce was light.
_Panna cotta. This dessert was on the house for my gf's birthday. Not sure if it's on the menu but it was AMAZING! one of the best I've had. It was so smooth and milky and not too rich. Accompanied with berries and some other goodness it was finger licking good.
Service was great and friendly. Although the food was good I think it was pretty overpriced. There are other restaurants in Vegas for around the same amount of price and way better taste and experience.
