I'm usually skeptical about chain restaurant pizza. However, Grimaldi's Pizzeria is a different story. I haven't been to their original Brooklyn location, so i'm not sure how true they stay to their original recipe. However, I do know good pizza when I taste it and Grimaldi's in Las Vegas is excellent.
The pizza at Grimaldi's is prototypical NY style pizza with a thinner crust. The crust is thin and airy, but still maintains its structural integrity without being bogged down by toppings. In addition to the traditional red sauce, you have the option of getting white garlic or pesto pizza. Our group of 4 shared 2 large (18 inch) pizzas, one traditional and one white garlic. My favorite pizza was the red sauce meatball pizza. It was addictive. I wasn't as big of a fan of the white garlic pizza.
Surprisingly, I don't believe there is any price inflation at this Las Vegas location and the prices are similar to other Grimaldi's. It is actually pretty affordable in comparison to other sit-down restaurants on the strip. A large pizza is $16 and consists of 8 slices. Toppings are extra and run you $2-4 each.
We also ordered a large salad to share and a few beers. We ended up paying around $25 each, which was a steal since we were all stuffed afterwards. Grimaldi's is a definitely a good option if you're looking for a casual, low-key sit-down restaurant on the strip that does not break the bank.
