| - Five stars isn't enough to accurately describe my recent trip to Giada. If you take anything away from this review, it should be to take advantage of the four course tasting menu, especially if you don't live near Las Vegas. With the tasting menu, a large and delicious antipasti platter is served and not one thing on the plate is disappointing, but the bacon wrapped dates and pea pesto crostini were the favorites. The pasta courses were stunning and delicious as well, but the table favorite was the Vegetable Bolognese. Amazing is an understatement, such rich flavors.The tenderloin with chimichurri was fanastic, as were the crusted lamb chops and salmon. The real entree star is the Branzino with Tangerine Vinaigrette, it is honestly the epitome of perfection. The dessert cart that comes with the tasting menu is stunning, both in looks and taste. the choices are endless with the gorgeous rose gold cart but we stuck to banana gelato, lemon ricotta cookies, polenta cake, tiramisu, and raspberry sorbet. We recommend them all. We enjoyed our meal so much that we cancelled another dinner reservation to return to Giada before heading home. Both meals were phenomenal here. The staff is amazing, the view is spectacular, and the atmosphere is elegant as Giada herself. This review doesn't even begin to do this restaurant justice, you just have to go and see for yourself! We can't wait to return!!
