| - This is the lower end of Italians restaurants go in the Venetian, but since it is the Venetian is still isn't that cheap either. It's far from "fine dinging" but maybe a step above casual as well. The bread was good and so was the service. But with the food it seems like they were just not trying too hard. The food has always been good, but not too amazing, just decent. A lot of it looking like it came out of a can and was Microwaved. Mario Batali's name is plastered over the place, but it seems like many of the Vegas restaurants in Vegas where the famous chef might have came up with the fancy sounding names on the menu, cashes his check and disappeared. Plus, they are very pushy on the wine, which looks to be where the money is. Don't order wine, don't expect to see your waiter much
Some of the other reviews kinda hint at fake Italian for tourists, but it's Vegas, is is pretty much all "Fake ____ for tourists." This is clearly that, though. It's not great, it's just not good and far from authentic or exciting. I suppose it is still good food and a decent atmosphere, but you can do better, especially in Vegas.
