| - My friends and I spent another wonderful evening at Carnevino during our last trip to Vegas. We made last minute reservations for 12 people. The restaurant is big enough to accommodate large groups. It's a bit of a maze, so pay attention when you walk all the way to the back of the restaurant. The staff was once again very knowledgeable about the food and made suggestions accordingly. They didn't offer sangria, but the waiter suggested a Sangiovese mixed drink that tasted like crushed strawberries. It was so refreshing and hit the spot. I tried the veal saltimbocca & bacon-wrapped asparagus. The veal was salty as it should be. The asparagus was perfectly breaded, crunchy, and crisp. My friends ordered the lamb chops with mint pesto, osso bucco, beef carpaccio, seafood spaghetti, la fiorentina, and the filet mignon. All of the dishes were delicious. One of my friends ordered the caprese salad to start and we were delighted that the mozzarella was freshly hand-pulled and creamy. The combination of tomato, basil, and mozzarella was divine! Another great experience in Las Vegas.
