I can't believe I waited this long to go to The Bootlegger. This is a throwback to the way Italian restaurants used to be and I loved it. Big overstuffed booths, professional servers all dressed alike with formal attire, classic dishes that are expertly crafted.
They start you with these addictive garlic bread bites that are covered in garlic and olive oil. Be careful or you will fill up on them before your entree arrives!
We had a starter of fried calamari and I have to say it was one of the top 5 best I have ever enjoyed. The portions are generous and the quality of the food is top notch. After the garlic bites, starter and an entree we had no room for dessert.
If you want a classic Italian dining experience, you should take a trip to south Las Vegas Blvd and give this joint a try. I know we will be back again.
