| - Mondays has a Taste of Italy theme for dinner. Choice range from salads, appetizers, Italian sub sandwiches, soups, entrees like Osso Bucco Gremolata, pizza, carving station, and desserts.
The Osso Bucco was delicious. It was meaty and roasted to perfection. The bone marrow was the best part, creamy and rich with flavor from the bone. Definitely go for second and thirds on this one. Thumbs up!
Chilled on ice, peel and eat shrimp (all that your heart desires) with cocktail sauce for dipping. You'll pay at least twice as much for a seafood buffet on the Strip that includes shrimp. Thumbs up!
The seafood paella (which is more Spanish than Italian) was chocked full of squid and mussels. It's a simple dish but packed full of flavor. The seafood itself flavored the rice with the green onion and bay leaf as support. Definitely worth a second trip! Thumbs up!
Last, but not least, the desserts bar. They had some of their staples of mini éclairs, mini fruit tarts, cakes and pies. But since it was Italian-themed, cannolis were on the menu. The pastry shells were perfectly baked. The cheese filling was sweet, but a bit too thick and heavy. The chocolate chips made it more decadent and delicious. Go for seconds, if you have room. Thumbs up!
