| - My wife and I live in vegas, so we've been to a lot of the restaurants around here, and we wanted to see what the hype about this place was. We both like Giada, and we walked in expecting a homey feel and huge portions of pasta like her television show conveys. It was a bit of a let down overall. All of the hostesses were nice and personable, but it was surprising to see them in the shortest dresses I've seen in a decent resturaunt. We actually saw one couple leave because the wife caught her husband staring one too many times :) We didn't have a reservation so we sat in the lounge area, which was nice but it again just conveyed a typical vegas restauraunt. As for the food, it was good but overpriced, and certainly not very italian. The oysters Rockefeller were $18 for four small bites, and the spaghetti was $34 for a child's portion of dry spaghetti with very little sauce. All in all, if you like Giada look up her recipes, make them at home, and invite your family over for a Giada experience and go to Casa di Amore for good italian food.
