| - If you want an honest review of an Italian restaurant ask an Italian...My wife and I have been going to Il Mulino N Y for many years and always look forward to our meal there..We were asked to recommend and book a restaurant for us and two other couples on a recent trip to Las Vegas. we were a bit apprehensive in selecting Il Mulino LV because we had never eaten at that location.....well, we went, and here's my impressions. first of all, let's get this part out of the way.....THE FOOD IS OFF THE CHARTS GOOD...Very authentic Italian, just like Grandpa made for Sunday Dinner....You've read descriptions of the food from other reviewers so I won't go into descriptions of that, suffice it to say, the food is peasant Italian served in a gourmet style...pay no attention to the nay-sayers..didn't see an Italian name among them... difference between Il Mulino NY and LV atmosphere...NY restaurant has been around for a while and is a bit worn which,I feel, adds to the charm..The wait staff in NY is less stiff, Far more friendly...Back to LV, we were the first to arrived right at 5:00 PM....no big welcome, not even an enthusiastic hello..We ordered cocktails at the bar and enjoyed them on the patio overlooking the strip...No one came to get us when it was time for our reservation so I had to track someone down to take us to our table...Now, I want to regress a bit....I had brought a very good bottle of wine from my cellar to share with my friends....note, I never bring more than one bottle of wine to a restaurant..I walked in with the wine exposed, nothing was said until I went to the Maitre D' and asked that my wine be opened and decanted...he then advised me of their policy of no outside wine..I said sorry I didn't know...he did make an exception and allowed my wine with the understanding that there would be a corkage fee and that I would buy another bottle of wine...all this done in a scolding sort of way saying I should have called first about the wine policy...he's probably right about that but, a little respect....I was probably drinking wine before he was born..I was handed the wine list soon after being seated..I was hard pressed to find a decent wine for under $200.00...did find one but not until after the waiter's strong encourage to up-sell me...corkage fee $40.00, a bit much...all that said, service was great food was real..."You really need to go"
