  • I didn't have access to yelp because monte carlo had no free wifi.. BOOO.. so my friend helped me out with yelping so we ended up picking Valentino at the Venetian. It is right at the walkway going into the palazzo and in front of the cashier area of the venetian if you have a hard time finding it! Don't be confused! There's the fine dining area in the back and the GRILL area in the front of the restaurant so take your pick! The menus are indeed quite different.. The Grill is BASIC pasta italian food... i mean if you are in the mood for spaghetti and meatballs? you might as well spend another 6 bucks for the fine dining pasta dish.. and that is what we did. Decor: we were a bit confused.. what was it exactly supposed to be? it was just shades of dark blue/brown/shiny dark red walls.. and some long mirrors at the top of the ceiling.. oo hey! we can see ourselves up top! I don't know what the decorators were really thinking to be honest with you...There's no specific theme to the place or anything. Dark lighting in the front and in the back...romantic is not a word i would describe this place at all. Space: the fine dining area is a back room.. it isn't that big at all.. maybe max 15 tables? a hallway leads to the front room where it is a bit more spacy.. I guess they like to hide us fine diners in the back? Service: very good and accommodating. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. He helped us with some recommendations and made sure things were alright at all times with us. Food: Average Italian food. I think i expected a bit more out of this place. The food wasn't bad but nothing too special! I had the black pasta with carbonara sauce which consisted of bacon and sea urchin and shrimp.. It was a bit bland for my taste so i ended up adding some salt to the dish. It came in a bowl sized dish which was interesting. My friends and i were trying to taste and spot the sea urchin pieces but I think there was just too much bacon or they just didn't add any sea urchin in there for me to taste it! I also tried other dishes there which were the "fra diavolo" prawns with angel hair pasta sauce ( it was a bit spicy and basic ), and the lamb chops with gnocchi pasta on the side. The meat was very good and fell right off the bones.. Dessert: Best part of my meal. the chocolate souffle. The waiter said it would take about 30 minutes to make so we ordered it at the beginning of our dinner. We still had to wait about 10-15 minutes for it to come out though after we were done with our entrees. I love the vanilla bean custard when it is poured into the souffle center. It was very good. not too chocolatey or too sweet. On the other hand, The chocolate ice cream on the side was TOO chocolatey for me.. I hate dark chocolate! In conclusion, i don't think i will be coming back here...
