| - Solid food, and a really fun waiter made my experience at Bartolotta a great one. This food did not blow me away, but it made me very happy. We began by sharing a bunch of apps. The duck liver pate with white truffles was tasty, as was the beef tar tare (not particularly memorable, but not bad). The menu is all about the fresh fish, which is presented to you ala Morton's steak cart... it's rolled over on a bed of ice. They charge by the gram. Come on... we're in America here, at least put friggin ounces on the menu. I have no idea what 300grams of fish looks like, and I'm not an idiot, I just never measure my cuts of protein in grams. Anyway, as I typically do in places where everything looks amazing, I let the chef select what to cook for me, which ended up being snapper in a wine broth with tomatoes and artichokes. It was light, simple, delicate, and just what I wanted. I would not bust my butt to come back or to bring a friend here, there's just too many outstanding places in Vegas that charge $50-60 a plate to go to before here.
