| - I know I probably shouldn't be this impressed with Spago but it blows my socks off! I've eaten here twice while in Vegas on two separate visits. I actually wish I would have eaten here more each time. This past occasion we were debating not going to Spago just because we had eaten here last time and there are so many places we just didn't get to try. However, someone made the brilliant decision that we were going to Spago again and I'm thankful because this was once again my FAVORITE meal in Vegas.
To start off I have to mention the awesome bread basket, so delicious, the flat bread, the sweet bread, the sourdough ahh my mouth is watering as I write this. The accompanying sea salt, butter and olive oil is also amazing.
On this trip to Spago we sat "outside" and were able to order off of the cafe menu and the dinner menu.
Last time we ordered the oysters and we remember how amazing they truly were by ordering them again. Spago's oysters are the best and freshest in Las Vegas, if you eat oysters or just want to try them get them here.
This time there were 7 of us so we got to try a lot of menu items.
There were two orders of the special salad that night which was Caprese Salad with heirloom tomatoes and buffalo mozzerella. It was fantastic. I ordered the Olsen Farm's Baby Arugula Salad, Farmers' Market Pear & Fig, Shaved Fennel, Burrata Cheese, Prosciutto San Daniele, Ice Wine Vinegar and Olive Oil. I had them put the Proscuitto on the side and someone else ate it. The salad was intense. The creamy Burrata accompanied with the fresh fig and pears, so good. Get this if you have a chance.
I also ordered the Farmer's Market White Corn Soup, Trumpet Royale Mushrooms, Caramelized Cipollini Onions, Fava Beans, Cherry Tomatoes, Arugula and Basil Oil. This was the all-star of the night for everyone who tasted it. It was so fresh and savory I would have licked the bowl if it would have been appropriate.
For Entree's we had 3 orders of the Hand Cut Fettuccini, Wild Oregon Mushrooms, English Peas, Arugula, Glazed Shallots, Parmesan-Reggiano. This was a popular dish the last time we ate here so one of us ordered it again and two others joined along. It was as delicious as we remembered.
2 orders of the Caserecci Pasta a la Bolognaise,Braised Beef, Roasted Double Blanched Garlic, Plum Tomatoes, House Made Ricotta Cheese. Both people who ordered this loved it.
Unagi Glazed Scottish Salmon Salad, Romaine Lettuce, Daikon Radish, Shiso, Avocado, Carrot Rémoulade , Steamed Jasmine Rice, Japanese Vinaigrette. It looked beautiful.
Spago Pancetta-wrapped Meatloaf, Russet Potato Purée, Mushroom Gravy, Port Wine Sauce, Onion Rings. My friend who ordered this jokingly said his was better, which he says about all food items but he thoroughly enjoyed it.
To top it off we had another birthday here and this time they brought us out an assortment of cookies. We were all completely stuffed but we some how made some room for these cookies.
Last but not least, for the quality of the food the pricing is on point. There are a ton of place in Vegas that take your hard earned money while you sit back and wonder if it was really worth it. This is not one of them.
Thank you Spago, when I return to Vegas I will visit, more than once this time.
