| - Inexpensive compared to the other restaurants in Caesar's, but still pricey for pasta. I came here for some comfort food and have given up on the NYC location, mere mortal that I am.
I had the Tagliolini with Peas & Ham - described as "Fresh-made tagliolini pasta, prosciutto cotto, sweet peas, diced shallots, light cream sauce." Was it ever. You can taste the fresh and the sauce was light and flavorful at the same time. My escort had the Shell Pasta with Ricotta Sauce - large shell pasta in red sauce with a gloop of ricotta to bring it all together. Delicious! We split the ground veal/pork/beef meatballs, which were very good. He would describe them as very *very* good.
Definetly full at the end of the meal. Of course I liked it, but it's pasta - what's not to like? Maybe how the NY scene raves about this place... maybe the Vegas real estate... conspired to affect my expectations. It was good, yes. It did not blow me away. I wouldn't recommend it .. but I wouldn't NOT recommend it either, make sense? Definetly not horrific but not superb, either. It's just sort of ... there.
