| - As locals living in Vegas, we rarely dine on the strip. Carbone is a fine example of why we stay away. It was so loud we could hardly hear our waiter, who was just creepy to begin with. He told us about his favorite dishes while ignoring our questions. The menus are also so large in size, it just just obnoxious. There are not that many options, why make the menu so huge? It literally blocked you from seeing/hearing the people sitting just next to you.
I ordered a vodka soda before my dinner, and the metal straw it was served with has some one else's lipstick on it. I do understand mistakes are made, but gross. It also took so long to bring this attention to a waiter that the drink was entirely melted by the time it was taken away.
As a vegetarian, I understand I am not the target guest for restaurants like this but we had reservations with friends so this is where we ate. I ordered the minestrone soup which was green for some reason but absolutely flavorless. A bit of salt would have helped a lot but there was none on the table and getting attention of our waiter was nearly impossible. I also had the chopped salad which was just so weird. It had radicchio, beans, tomato and some other things. It was spicy and weird, not tasty at all. For my meal, it was as if no one had tried these things they were serving to me. The friends we ate with, liked what they had which is the only reason I gave them 2 stars. But this place was just too overpriced for that they serve and how they serve it.
