  • This is actually a 3.5 star review and I'm giving Carluccio's a bonus by rounding to 4. Embarrassing that having lived in Vegas, I had no idea Carluccio's existed. Some friends from Phoenix came down and wanted to meet at Carluccio's for a group dinner. When I arrived at the parking lot, I was in awe. This place was ostentatious and gorgeous....just the way I like it. I felt like I was in on an old Vegas secret and someone was going to hand me a briefcase full of cash for me to do something illegal with. Carluccio's is right next to the Liberace museum (something I need to go see) and apparently Liberace designed the interior. The interior was gold all over, hanging lights, dark lighting, dark carpets....I loved it. This is a great place to have a small dinner/family gathering. Now for the food/service. Service was average. My water glass was always full, the waiter took our order fast and the service was pleasant. Unfortunately, the waiter we had made me nervous. I asked if the Caesar salad was vegetarian and he said yes. Then I confirmed if it had anchovies (as many authentic Ceasars do) and he said "Oh yeah...it does." But he was quick to tell me the other dressings that would suit me. The food also took forever to come out. I ordered a mixed green salad with thousand island (side salad) and an eggplant parmigiana. The mixed green came with about a gallon of thousand island on it rendering it inedible. I like my dressing but I also like to see my salad. Perhaps I should have ordered dressing on the side but I did not expect that much. The eggplant parmigiana (served with spaghetti with marinara) was very good. Fried to the right extent and with a gorgeous piece of melted mozzarella on top and drowned in tasty marinara, this was comfort food that hit all the right stops. Everyone else on the table thoroughly enjoyed their meals. The portion sizes were huge. I mean, I could have eaten my parmigiana for about 4 meals. No exaggeration here. I later realized that they do have half orders for some of the menu. So ask about that if you're a light eater. The meal was also priced very very reasonably. My parmigiana was 12.99 and my husband's spaghetti with marinara was 8.99. The dinner also came with a magician who entertained us for a little bit. The guy was pretty good at what he did (card tricks, disappearing money that appears somewhere incredible later) and added to a fun night. Highly recommend this place for a unique group event/dinner. I'm definitely coming when my girlfriends make a trip here. I know they'd appreciate the decor (over-the-top and dark). I'd like to mention here that some girls at the group ordered cocktails that were apparently awful. The waiter did take the cocktails back. Maybe you might want to stick to wine with your meal.
