| - Beyond Outstanding.TEN STARS, no kidding. We had such a good experience here that I thought it was a fluke. Then we had another and another. Then we took a group to the hotel for a weekend...16 RSVP'd for dinner and 28 showed up. It was no problem. I was absolutely stunned how well, on a Saturday night, they were able to accommodate such a large group, and were clearly happy to do so. Our waitstaff was amazing - they knew the menu and nuances of the wine list, inside and out. They were fast, efficient and didn't mind special requests even from a large group. We fully expected to be served in sections and were pleasantly surprised when we were all served at the same time. Don Vito's is clearly very, very well managed.
The atmosphere and acoustics are wonderful despite being inside a busy casino hotel. The lighting is just petfect. The bread is fresh baked and the marinated sun dried tomato bruschetta was flavorful and delicious. There is an extensive, reasonably priced wine list and full bar available. We had the Lobster Milanese and Lasagna. Both were the best we have ever eaten, absolute perfection (...and I mean that...I travel extensively for work dining with clients who prefer 5 stars restaurants that include a Captain's wine list...).
The manager has visited our table each time we have dined here and we are pleased to have gotten to know this wonderful man professionally, and he is the consummate professional.
I will probably update this review as I keep reading it and saying, "it's just not enough." This is a restaurant we visit every single time we go to Vegas and we look forward to dining there when we stay at the Southpoint again!
