If you have read some of my other reviews you will know that I love the Rat Pack and old school Vegas. In Vegas I usually stay downtown, I eat at old school steakhouses, and I love the original Oceans 11. So when my brother that used to live in Vegas recommended this place and told me that it has been around since the Rat Pack days I knew we had to go there. When we came in were were seated immediately by the friendly staff and our waiter was Johnny on the spot with our drink order.
We sat in the bar area and in the main dining room was a live singer and a piano player doing old school standards. The ambiance was perfect.
My pre-dinner extra dry vodka martini was perfectly prepared and my fiance's "Italian" margarita (a house specialty) was delicious. The bread bites with marinara sauce were a great into to our meal.
My veal Parmesan was exceptional and the lasagna my fiance had was probably some of the best I have tasted. We had the Creme Brulee for dessert even though it's not really a Italian dish but it is my favorite and it was fantastic. Sadly I don't remember the bottle of wine we had but it was the perfect match to our meals.
The only negative I can think of is now that we have discovered this place I will have a hard choice between here and my other favorite Italian place in town.
