This chef is so well-respected in Vegas he really doesn't need a great review to fill his seats but we enjoyed it so much, decided to write one anyway. Friends invited us for dinner. They're loyal supporters. Must say in addition to the outstanding Italian food I enjoyed the casual atmosphere. This is the best of both worlds. Be comfortable and enjoy some of the best food ever. Fantastic pasta and the best chicken piccata. I've eaten chicken piccata in many restaurants. This was the most tender and flavorful of any. That's saying something given the number of Italian restaurants calling Vegas home. Chef Marc came out to see how we were doing. Very cordial. They'll make anything on menu to your specification. Really fresh ingredients. Our waiter was knowledgeable and happy to accommodate any special requests. Sometimes it's hard to find good appetizers, salad, bread and entrees. Usually you'll find one thing you really like and the rest is so-so. Not here. Rest assured you'll like everything you order. Reasonable priced for the quality. This is a few miles west of the strip on Sahara. Such a nice change from the overpriced, service-challenged eateries on the strip.
