Matteo's Ristorante Italiano Reviews

We decided to go italian before seeing a show. This place is right on restaurant row by the Venetian and convenient. There is a small bar and about 5 tables included for happy hour. Drinks are 50% off but a glass of wine is in the $15-$20 range before discount. The food was good, not outstanding, with smaller portions. We had the braised short ribs and ravioli dishes. Overall, a smaller restaurant and interestingly no bathroom (it’s out in the hall down by Starbucks). Prices high.

Whenever I’m in Vegas I will stop at the Venetian to eat. The only hotel on the strip that does not have a buffet. We decided on Italian and came straight here Mateusz is a bistro located in the venetian tower. Everything in the bistro is homemade. We split a salad which was large enough to be an entrée. My friend and I both had pasta. She had a homemade stuffed ravioli and I had the agnolotti. I am always worried when there is a sauce that it might be too thick but it was a perfect brown butter not too heavy. We each had a glass of wine as well. The bill came to $100 which by Vegas terms is not so bad. It was an excellent meal and I would highly recommend this restaurant.

This was the most amazing gastronomic experience one can ever have. The mixology is truly unique. The menu is extensive. The service is top notch. Do not miss out on this gem. The Pereubu is the best cocktail ever. The casinzei is not your Nana’s ravioli. The Brasato and Angello were outstanding mains. Best lamb chops in the World!!!!

Amazing service. Good was fantastic and reasonable price for a fancy micheline reviewed restaurant! The tomato soup app was amazing. Around 14$ The bruschetta was good. 18$ I think The lobster pasta (don’t remember the name) was 46$ The free range chicken was 28$ The ravioli was roughly 20& or so. Deserts were ok. Not the absolute best was still good. Those were around 15$ each. Very pleased with this dining experience.

Amazing food! Everyone in our party of 6 had a different entree & everyone's was so good we all ended up sharing.

This was the first meal we had on our recent stay a the Venetian Resort. I was early afternoon so it was not crowded at all. the brucchetta was amazing as well as the roasted brussel sprouts. We would definitely eat at the restaurant again on our next visit to Las Vegas!

Reservations at 6:15, but even 30 minutes later, still no table. Place super busy, so be warned. Front desk not very friendly.

I returned to this restaurant fopo two years and the wonderful impression I had then was confirmed. Nice place. Good service. Very good food

Best meal of our four nights in Vegas! Food was delicious — we had grilled calamari, a pasta stuffed with short-rib, and cannoli. All fantastic. Service was excellent. We tried to go there again as we all enjoyed it so much, but it was fully booked the rest of our stay.

At the Venetian. We were three & ordered different plates. You can see them making the fresh pasta. We loved every bite of the lobster, silky pasta and the assortment of seafood. Don’t forget to order the delicious desserts.

We are a 78 year-old couple visiting Las Vegas from Indiana. At our age, we’ve had a lot of restaurant dining experience in our life and would rate Matteo’s among the best for the food, service, and ambience. We want to especially comment on the excellent attention that the maître d gave to everyone. He was thoughtful, gracious, and so observant.of the entire restaurant. It was a delicious, delightful dining experience.

This was our last night in Vegas and the restaurant had a varied menu. It did not disappoint. There was complimentary bread and oil. The wine, although over-priced, was excellent. The service was good and the food delicious. The only sour note was that when the bill came we had been charged twice for everything. Although it was soon sorted once I had identified the problem it left a sour taste in the mouth as I was unsure if it was an accident or deliberate.

Everything at Matteo's is divine: every dish, every morsel... the friendly, kind & helpful staff... makes dining at Matteo a lovely dining experience. Go & Enjoy!

Really I would give the food a 1. It was tasteless. Even when I put pepper on it it still was bad. My husband said the same thing and didn’t eat even half of his 80 dollars later. We enjoyed the salad. The room was so loud. Everyone is so close together. That many people in a small space talking loud. My husband couldn’t even hear me across the table. Not romantic or mood setting. If I could give a 5 for service I would. The staff was great. They sat us right away. They brought us water and took our order. If we needed anything or had a question poof they were on it. The service snd the workers made the night. They have it right!! If this place just new how to season the food it would be worth it. We will not go back. To many other places in this works that do know how to season food and do not sell $25 dollar a glass wine.

We had no reservation and there was a convention at the Venetian Hotel with thousands of people rushing to restaurants. We were sitted promptly and friendly. We took some Italian wine. We shared a grilled calamari dish which was excellent and then my wife had sauteed white schrimps with artichokes and I had the risotto with aged rice and truffles which was the best dish I had in Vegas during the trip. Excellent. Fast service and friendly atmosphere

Wow, just wow is all I have to say on this restaurant. We walked around the whole casino and saw multiple Italian Restaurants. They were truly special or had anything that marked them as different until this one! They literally make their own pasta by hand. We were quickly seated and given water. The bread basket was so good, and the olive oil just divine. We couldn't make up our minds on mind so we opted for cocktails, which we both chose the Pere Ubu, OMG I attempted not to down it too fast, it was just that delicious. We opted for pasta for dinner, I had the Modenesi, and my BF had the Calamarata allo scoglio. Both divine and cooked to perfection - Al Dente (the way all pasta should be). We ended the night with another cocktail and had the cannoli for dessert. Normally cannoli are very dense, these were literally light and airy! So good! I see past reviews stating small portions, but the portions were just right!

This place is a bit pricy but quality was very good…service was also on point…maybe a bigger menu would make the experience even better.

Overpriced for what you get. Food is good. Not outstanding; not bad. Service was adequate. Was expecting more based on price. Skip this and head somewhere else.

What we hoped would be a nice relaxed date-night dinner was instead an over priced, chaotic experience. Despite requesting a quiet table when we made our reservations, we were seated next to the entrance and the bar. It was so noisy we couldn’t carry on a conversation. The waiter forgot our drink order. The margherita pizza ($33) was paper thin with hardly any flavor. With so many restaurant options, don’t waste your money at Matteo’s

There are so many better options not only in Vegas, but right there in the Pallazo. There was just nothing memorable about this experience. My wife had some kind of vegetarian pasta and I opted for the chicken breast with green beans and both dishes were just OK, but definitely not worth a bill of $100+ without wine, desert or any alcoholic drinks. What a ripoff!

Excellent customer service. Food was delicious. We ate pasta with pesto and another one with lamb, delicious!

The braised rib was all membrane and fat... basically, inedible. We asked for a simple Alfredo dish which they upcharged and added seasonless boiled chicken with the skin on it and the wing!!! So so so bad and pretty expensive. Huge waste. Horrible manager, fake staff always trying to upcharge. If you do go, don’t forget to check your bill!!! I am 100% positive you will find up charges and mistakes. All the dishes we ordered were sub-par and not at all tasty!

Dined here last evening. I had the stuffed peppers with arugula and the short ribs on a bed of parmesan risotto. Plate licking good! Wife had salad and roasted potatoes. Service very good.

It’s an Italian and Mediterranean restaurant Fusion meals with a very unique test If you are keto diet this is a good option where to eat It’s a noisy restaurant very crowded Service is pretty good I ordered the branzino (sea bass) and rib eye (soft and very tasty) This is a gourmet food so don’t expect big dishes

This restaurant is at The Venetian resort and it is very nice, we liked the food and we good service.

My wife and I stopped by to have dinner at Matteo's. We were looking to experience something from each hotel while we were in Las Vegas. There was a wait to be seated of approximately 20 mins. No big deal, we went to the bar to wait and have a predinner drink. I order an old fashion, something pretty standard and not overly complex. Or so I thought. I get a drink that looked like a brownish mojito served in a short glass. No idea what the bartender thought he was serving me. It was just awful. Dinner thankfully was the saving grace. The ribeye was brought out and at first looked to be well done (I requested medium). I cut into it and took a bite. Surprisingly it was tasty and cooked to my order request. My wife had a pasta dish which she really enjoyed. The place was packed, and the noise level was pretty good, but not overbearing. Definitely recommend it for the decent food, but maybe avoid the bar. Be prepared for the sticker shock. The ribeye (14 oz) was $85. The horrible Old Fashion was $18. I don't mind paying for good quality and an enjoyable experience, but this was overpriced for what you get.

The place had very attentive staff and a vwry calm ambiance. We ate the Cremella, the Gnocchi, Mandilli de seta, and the Panna cotta. The Cremella was suggested by our server Juan. The creamy mozarella and pears were so good. I really think that the Mandilli di seta is an acquired taste, but to me, it was delightful. The seemingly simple pesto and pasta combination makes you enjoy both of them a lot more. My wife enjoyed the Gnocchi and the panna cotta as well. It was such a nice lunch.

Enjoyed great service with appetizers and drinks at a reception first night then cocktails next two nights. Fun place to gather.

Another Italian-American restaurant in Las Vegas. This one is neither better nor worse than others, but it is expensive considering the very standard atmosphere and food quality.

Had pasta with lamb ragout (with a fancy name, of course). Meat was good. Pasta i can‘t judge. Sauce very flat with no remarkable flavors. Waiters very attentive, but also too aggressive. When my peer had finished his dish and I had one or two spoons left, the waiter picked up my peers dish and offered with a gesture that he could wait for me to finish my dish. Had pistachio for dessert. A little too sweet, but with very fresh strawberries. Espresso mediocre.

In our ten day Las Vegas vacation, Matteo’s delivered our absolute favorite meal. The short rib agnolotti was outstanding. Who knew those little pillows of pasta could pack so much flavor! Service was friendly and attentive. Their pistachio cake was really enjoyable, although I would describe it as more of a dense mousse, topped with a white chocolate whipped cream and the largest strawberry I have ever seen. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

When we came in it had been a travel day for us, so we were a little bit tired and a little out of sorts. However once we walked through the door everything was pure excellence from the moment we met the hostess who was extremely friendly and kind until it was time to leave. Everyone and everything was perfect. I would return ~

Food was good but portions were tiny. We had heard that and expected it but it was still disappointing. Ambience nice and service good.

The food was a bit of a disappointment. Neither my husband or myself were happy with our dishes. Dessert was good and the service was excellent.

Wonderful pasta. I had the short rib filled ravioli type pasta. It was excellent. I will say that the portion for me was small, so for someone who is used to a big plate, it wouldn’t be enough for a main course.

We came to Matteo's to celebrate my best friend's 45th Anniversary. They honeymooned in Las Vegas and had not been back to Sin City in 45 years! Our service and meals were outstanding, from the first course to dessert. My husband loved his tomato fennel zuppa, short ribs, and Budino Di Pane (chocolate-raisin bread pudding with caramel gelato and whipped cream. I also enjoyed my sauteed Branzino sea bass with cauliflower purée and roasted Brussel sprouts, followed by a glass of limoncello. Delizioso!

Hoped to get their stuffed squash blossoms but they had just gone off menu due to change of seasons. Oh well. Tried the tempura fried veggies for an appetizer which I thought was odd for an Italian restaurant and they were ok. They snuck in a roll of polenta, which was the best part. Ricotta gnocci were ok, though not as light as I expected. The veal shank for 2 salvaged the dinner - best we've had in a long time. Even the nice $8 wine costing $21 a glass could not spoil it. Desert of pistachio cake was also outstanding. I wish they would get rid of the mall-like musak which did not add a thing to the experience. Service was outstanding so even though not a great value for the dollar, an all in all pleasant dinner.

We stumbled upon this place after a long travel day. I had the duck and veal ravioli and a blood orange martini. DELICIOUS! Texture and taste of the pasta was incredible. Husband has the gnocchi. He’s still talking about how good it was and he’s stingy with compliments lol. Waitstaff are so nice too! So glad we stopped in!

my first night in Vegas we were looking for a place to eat and the first one thankfully wasn't seating people anymore and so we found our way to Matteo's Ristorante Italiano in the Venetian, where we were staying. I was torn between the pesce bianco (baked chilean sea bass) and the agnello (seared lamb chops). I ended up getting the sea bass and it tasted really good but it was a small piece, and left me wanting more. Another person in our party did get the lamb chops and it was a nice pull plate. Very delicious. We ordered the peperu (sweet and spicy peppers filled with soft cheese, grana padano, arugula oil. These little appetizers were soooo good that we ordered several plates of them. I finished up my meal with the cannoli siciliani, and it was absolutely fantastic. The meal was delicious and the service was first class.

We dined at Matteo's on April 4, 2021. Our server, Gregory, was so knowledgeable and gave us great advice for our dining choices. We started with the mussels -- so fresh and in a beautiful sauce. We then shared the Mandilli di Seta, beautiful handkerchief egg pasta served with almond basil pesto. After that, we had the Casonzei, which we both decided was the best ravioli we'd ever had (pork and veal filled ravioli, pancetta, sage brown butter, and Parmigiano reggiano). We finished with sorbet. We were blown away by how great the food was and we are especially thankful to our server, Gregory, who was such a great help with information on the restaurant and menu. We definitely will return and tell all of our friends and family traveling to Las Vegas to go to Matteo's!

Amazing food. Great service. My tomato mozzarella salad was amazing. The pizzas are great too. Drinks are so good as well.

Had a really lovely meal here on Saturday evening before the Xtina concert with family. We were celebrating our 20th, and they even surprised us with a decadent dessert at the end which was such a wonderful touch. Our table ordered a variety of items, I had the Handkerchief Pasta (pesto) which was very good along with the cauliflower which was also pretty tasty. My husband and niece had the calamarata which they enjoyed, and my other niece had the Chilean Sea Bass which she said was divine. They checked in on us often, ensured we had filled water glasses and were taken care of. Food was very good.

The manager, Carlos, the owner, Matteo, and wait staff are excellent. The food is very good and traditional. The first day I had the minestrone soup and it had bountiful vegetables and a delicious broth. The second day I ordered it, I was a bit disappointed as it was the same as the day before with fewer vegetables and a bit watered down. I am a soup maker and lover of soup. It should be made daily. Also, the portion is half of the bowl, which shouldn't be given the cost. The margarita pizza has a delicious crust and sauce. The salad dressing was the same. The first day it was incredible and the second day it was not the same. I love the restaurant and want to give a 5 star, but the inconsistency prohibits me from doing so.

Party of 4 we had dinner booked. went on time. Were seated in 10 minutes. The waiter who served us was not at all attnetive. Only thing he did was gave menu, rushed for orders, and before we finished the dinner, cleaned up table for three of 4 as forth person was still eating. Failed to bring salt and red pepper despite three times asking. ONLY INTERESTED TO TURN TABLE . Portions are really small for the price.Food is average. there was convention in time, but they can still have better service or servers.

Had lunch there yesterday w/ family. Started out promisingly- ordered our drinks, starters came, we scarfed them down( yummy prosciutto, cheese, salmon etc.) after a really awkward period of nothingness our servers repeatedly started coming over asking if everything was ok… no- we have NO food! After some more time went by our server came over to apologize for the detail. Now a full 25 min. have past then finally I saw a line of plates coming toward us -being led by I guessed the manage himself ( he sat a huge plate of food in front of me) profusely apologizing for the delay. That being said: the food they sat in front of us was: Hot & tasty, cooked to perfection. Everything was good. I would have personally have like if he( the manager) would’ve have either comp’d one of the meals, or starters - something- offered dessert on them. We were glad that they acknowledged the wait though. Their food spoke for itself - it was good. They got that4 stars by the skin of their teeth lol.

Went here for the first time with my wife and totally happy with the experience. Alexis was an excellent server with great recommendations. The casonzel, branzo, porchetta and ortola were excellent. Topped off with a delicious pitachio mousse for desert. We will return.

The food was delicious. The starter (filled, spicy peppers) and the main course (homemade pasta) were both very tasty, as were the Brussels sprouts. The white wine (pino grigio) was very nice, too. The service was outstanding. The servant Alexis was super friendly, very attentive, and never forgot that I'm vegetarian. It was an expensive dinner for my standards (close to 100$), but fully worth it.

From the first greeting to the last bite of dessert, everything was excellent! We got dinner to go. The manager and bartender were so welcoming. Our order included prime beef tartar and grilled calamari as appetizers. Both were spot on -- flavor and presentation. All three entrees, two pastas and one branzino were all delicious. The desserts -- tiramisu and pistachio cake -- were beautiful and tasty. Hot dishes were hot. Cold dishes were cold. Even in take out containers, they took the care to make things look nice. All around wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

Simply put, this is among the best Italian joints I have ever been to. The dishes are divine and even the vegetarian options are fantastic. Don't forget to try their innovative desserts

Was really looking forward to eating here but was quickly disappointed upon arrival. Our party of 5 was seated at the time of our reservation however we were seated at a four top with a chair shoved on the end leaving one of our guests literally seated in the aisle. Our request to be moved was accommodated after it was obvious that the servers couldn’t get through. The service was okay. The food was mediocre. It was loud.

We had a wonderful experience at Matteo’s last night. The food was unique and flavorful. Service was top shelf all the way. Each table had a waiter, asst. waiter and server. The meal was expensive but we knew that going in. And….this is Vegas. Highly recommended

This place was a little crowded for us. We were sat in the corner by the kitchen so every time the wait staff would walk by they would bump into my husband who was trying to eat. Other then that the wait staff was nice and very helpful. Dinner we ordered just plan pastas mostly since the menu seem kinda small. However they did have beef Tatar and is was different but pleasantly surprising. The deserts were the best part of the meal. The waitress came to cut open the soufflé with a very large steak knife. That was interesting to say the least. If we could have a different table I think we would’ve had a better time.

I had dinner here with a few colleagues. It was very crowded — I know, it is Vegas — and I wished the menu offered more options. That may be because I compared this menu to that of Trevi, another Italian restaurant, where I dined the night before. That being said, my meal, the branzino, was very good. The wine list is strong, but there are few moderately priced choices per bottle, for reds, under $100.00.

yes, the food is delicious, and the drinks are great but the service is was made this place standout for us. Never a dirty dish left on our table, full settings for each course (appetizers to desserts). The manger greeted us with great hospitality and invited us to the bar for a few minutes before our table was ready. I sooo appreciate it when servers come with drinks or plates of food and do NOT need to ask 'who had ..." but they know. They placed the ordered item in front of the right person without having to ask. Everything is expensive in Vegas, this place is too but I would definitely go back. Worth every penny.

We had an excellent experience at Matteo's. The staff were super attentive and helpful. I followed the Norma G youtube recommendation! We had the handkerchief pasta as an appetizer, amazing and truly unique. Followed by the agnolotti as a main. Two completely different sauces made the perfect meal. The price was not bad, certainly reasonable for Las Vegas.

Nothing special, we went with family but the price wasn't up to par. The most curious thing was water €30 3 bottles. The service however was very attentive

We had a great meal before walking across the bridge to see U2 at the Sphere. We mistimed our walk from our hotel and arrived 15 minutes after our reservation. But we were still seated almost immediately and staff was friendly and fast. Our waiter recommended several dishes that we selected and enjoyed. The sweet peppers are an excellent appetizer. The branzino is well done, swimming in a rich tomato sauce. The handkerchief pasta is luxurious, almost too rich for one person to eat. Overall, a great meal in a convenient location for anyone going to the Sphere

Booked a table at this restaurant for 5pm and when we arrived were told there were 5 parties in front of us. Totally disorganized booking system and chaotic queue of people outside waiting to be called for their tables. Once seated we were given the wrong menu (lunch menu instead of dinner) and ordered pasta dishes which have the same name on both menus but incredibly are completely different dishes. This was explained to us without any apologies but eventually changed. Food was tasty and nicely presented but they clearly have organizational issues that they need to sort out. Plenty of other restaurants in LV to choose from.

Ate here on our way to seeing Dead and Co at the Sphere. The food was good, but not over the top fancy. I ordered spaghetti and meatballs off menu and it was outstanding. The service really shined as well, as the place was packed, but Javier and Mike took great care of us and made sure we had everything we needed.

We enjoyed a wonderful lunch here. The attention to the quality of their ingredients and preparation of the food is on par with the food we enjoyed in Italy last year! We had the kale salad as well as the burrata salad, both were delicious. For our main course we had the salmon and the pancetta - both well prepared. For dessert we had both cannelloni and the panna cotta, again well prepared and very tasty! Highly recommend. My only complaint would be that they are hidden in the lower level of the Venetian. We were lucky to stumble across it.

We were in Las Vegas with 15 family members. We were greeted as old friends at Matteos. Due to restrictions we were not able to sit at one table but they moved tables near each other to accommodate us.

The food at Matteo’s was absolutely delicious, the perfect spot for your first night in Las Vegas. Agnolotti was amazing, and the roasted chicken was 10/10! You must get the Brussels sprouts on the side too, they were incredible!

This place exceeded our executions - excellent quality and service. The pasta is made in-house with flour from Italy - this is essential for my wife who has a gluten sensitivity with most pastas and baked goods from the US, but the higher quality flours from Europe don't bother her in the same way. She was able to thoroughly enjoy both pastas we tried! The branzino was also one of the best preparations I've had - perfectly crispy skin with a delicious sauce. The staff also sent out a delicious chocolate mousse dessert for our anniversary. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Vegas.

We had decided on Italian food for dinner on Tuesday, August 4th, our last night in Vegas, but hadn’t specifically chosen Matteo’s. It was almost by accident that we ended up here (it is a long non-relevant story). Anyway, what a great accident, as we loved our experience here. The main thing we loved was our server, Robert. What a fun, attentive, and amazing person Robert is. He checked on us several times, joked around with us all evening, and had a great attitude and personality. If he isn’t Matteo’s highest paid employee, he should be. What an asset to the business. If we lived in the area, we’d definitely go here often, but only on nights Robert was working. That evening’s chef’s tasting menu had things that looked good to both my husband and I, so that’s what we ordered. I got the Caesar salad, the shrimp scampi, and the tiramisu. My husband got the calamari, the chicken fettuccine, and the zeppoli. We don’t drink, so didn't take advantage of the included wine, but instead we were given complimentary soft drinks. All of this for $34 each. We couldn’t quite eat everything and were sad to leave some of our dinner behind, as it all tasted so wonderful. This was our favorite meal on our 2-week road trip, both for the delicious food and the atmosphere, but mostly because Robert was so amazing.

We had several dishes all which were outstanding. Insalata and calamari were truly great starters plenty flavorful and fresh. The porchetta was really good and the spaghetti probably the best ever baring no other. The cannoli and Panna Cotta were really good and equally outstanding as well. The chocolate soufflé is world class. This restaurant deserves excellent credit for the great food and even value. To put in perspective much better than Lago at Bellagio, whose food was ok and much more expensive. For hungry guests the fixed price menu is a good deal. Otherwise a la carta is a good choice as well. Wine pairings were great with the Valdadige and Via 19. The Broadbent Porto was a nice finding and surprise. Will definitely come back.

We were seated promptly at our reservation time. The restaurant got quite busy and the noise level is fairly loud, but not too loud to carry on a conversation. The tables for 2 can be quite close to each other if you want to have a private conversation. The atmosphere is nice -- nothing special - but comfortable. We did not have an appetizer even though there are plenty to choose from. We did have a bread basket which had some hard wafers and bread with tomato based butter and olive oil. Nothing too special -- bread was just white bread. My husband had the lobster and pasta dish which was quite good (a bit fishy tasting for me) and I had the pork and veal filled ravioli which was very good. Was served with a light white sauce and some type of "foam" on top -- an interesting presentation. The entrees overall were very good and had a nice taste - but not too heavy. We had the raisin bread pudding for desert. Tasty - but nothing that was like WOW. For us the menu was quite limited for entrees. They did have steaks and seafood - but I go to an Italian place for paste. I have to say that the service was EXCELLENT. Our server Juan was very cordial and there was always someone there to clear our plates or fill our water glasses. Would we go again?? Probably not -- it was good, but not something that I would say you MUST go.

Don't get me wrong , this was a pleasant place to have dinner and everything we had was good . But some of the reviews beaming over the food seem exaggerated . Being from the NYC region , we have great Italian food and this does not compare . What we did really like though was the pace of the service , we weren't rushed through our meal and we shared all of our courses , which they split into two servings . Would return if staying at the Venetian bit wouldn't go out of the way just to dine here .

We were seated to a cozy booth by Jasmine, the hostess and when Robert our server came over I asked if he had any "Anniversary specials" today? He said no, but proceeded to bring us a complimentary glass of sparkling wine...how thoughtful & delicious! I ordered the salmon that was "out of this world" and my husband had the spaghetti w/meat sauce. I sampled his and man, that is when I knew I had to come back another day to try that for myself...it was sooo good! The atmosphere, the food, the service made a lasting impression that we knew we had to return one more time! OUR DINNER VISIT: This was even better than the first being that we felt like family and experienced another delicious Italian meal where we ordered beer, a blood orange martini, the Ortolana salad, bread & oils, and the amazing spaghetti! It was a personal pleasure to meet & talk with Jana, the Special Events Director, Ricardo & Jasmine. Be sure and also read my review of their sister restaurant, Brera Osteria, inside The Venetian Resort because it was special & outstanding as well. I deeply apologize for my delay in posting this awesome review but some how after our visit there were lots of family surgeries plus Covid....and life got in the way! Thanks to all of you for an outstanding anniversary treat that we are still talking about to this day!

Have eaten at Matteo’s twice. The first time I had the casonzei, the second time was the fettuccine with lamb sugo. Both were delicious and the service was great. I prefer more intimate, quiet dining and that was not available at Matteo’s. The tables are close together and some obnoxious patrons failed to use their “inside voice”, as well as failed to refrain from vulgar conversation.

The service was outstanding that said, it was billed as a quiet intimate place for dinner…. It was anything but! The whole place was so noisy it was difficult to have a conversation. The tables are so close it’s easier to have a conversation with the person next to you instead of the person across from you. One dinner was beautifully presented with foam and hot, the other was warm and the oil was separating in the bottom ( short ribs pasta). So many places to try, we will not be back.

My hope for the Italian lunch was a charming and intimate table for my boo and me. Randomly from the Venetian’s site I chose Maettos’s. Right off the bat the restaurant provided a welcoming space. The place was close to packed with couple families and several two/four tops. I was happy that Prestige Club’s concierge Rose handled the lunch reservations though we gave up the reserved table for stools at the bar. The basketball game was on and with great quick and friendly service from our bartender Jada. The vibe was like being back home at my favorite casual restaurants. I throughly enjoyed the bowl of zuppa for starters and scampi style white shrimp. Next time I will order fettuccini or linguine with the shrimp. I really loved surprise chocolate mousse for dessert served on a birthday plate. The atmosphere was intimate not in a romantic way but just like familiar home style. I am glad to have tried Meatto’s.

Refreshing dishes made with fresh ingredients and vegetables. The creamy mozzarella in the cremella is perfect. The linguine is filling, but light. The side of patate is a nice complement to the main entrees.

Our party of 7 was just off the plane and ready to eat. We went to the Venetian and after finding nothing but lines we found Matteo’s and they were able to seat us right away. While it’s not traditional Italian food (think spaghetti and meatballs) the food is fresh and delicious - everyone found something they liked and they were able to do plain pasta for the picky eaters. Skyler our waiter was awesome. The gnocchi was amazing!

We made a last minute reservation at this spot while visiting Vegas. We were staying across the street at the Wynn. Let me tell you,....Matteo's BLEW US AWAY. The food was incredible. The service was impeccable. You could see them making the fresh pasta from the dining room. You could taste the quality as well. You can order anything on this menu and I'm sure it will blow you away. I had a pasta and sausage dish, not on the dinner menu, but made on request. INCREDIBLE. The next time you're in Vegas, definitly check this place out.

The food was very fresh and lite. The chicken dish was cooked well and tasty. The focaccia was lite and crispy and prepared fresh. Staff was professional and friendly

Extensive dinner menu with lots of great choices of Italian dishes. We came back several times to try different items. Everything was very special and very tasty. Our compliments to the chef.

Had yummy pre-show dinner for 6 of us. Service was stellar and portions more than adequate. They have an extensive wine list with appropriately priced bottles. Our entrees ranged from pasta to fish to beef. Everything was flavorful and came out hot. My favorite treat was the homemade gelato. Our only complaint was that seating was a bit tight - like a NY restaurant.

We were disappointed in this place. The atmosphere is not great. The tables are tiny and packed in together very tightly. The decor is average at best. We needn't have bothered to dress for dinner, people were in shorts and t-shirts and flip flops. Service was fast and professional, although not terribly friendly. I had a prosecco and my husband had a beer. The food was fine -- we had salads which were good, the foccacina tradizionale which was delicious, and I had the branzino which was fine and the veggies that came with it were really good, and my husband had the ravioli de pesce, which he deemed "ok." I definitely wouldn't recommend this place -- too many better options at The Venetian. The Greek place across the hall looked much nicer -- bigger tables that weren't packed together, candles on the tables, etc.

It was our anniversary and they took very good care of us. Staff was great and food was excellent. Portions were big and great options.

The appetizers and the main courses were unique, well presented and cooked to perfection. Everything was delicious and the service was great! Can't wait to go back!

Great Food! I will definitely come back to this restaurant for more food. It was a very nice presentation and just tasted great. I enjoyed the salad with the watermelon radish. I ordered the filet mignon with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Nice presentation. My wife had the ravioli that was filled with veal and pork. Was so delicious. I also liked The atmosphere of this restaurant and the seating was very comfortable.

I really don't like giving average reviews. But I have to. There was nothing special about being here. There are so many options of places to go eat in this town, even in this casino. I would pass on this. My pasta wasn't so bad, just wasn't crazy good, especially for the price. The ambiance and staff were good.

This place was fantastic! We ate a late dinner and were able to get in immediately. The linguini was absolutely delicious and the tiramisu was some of the best we’ve ever eaten. Definitely recommend this restaurant. Also-our server’s assistant was extremely attentive and helpful. He put our dining experience over the top. We hope to go back.

We had just arrived at the resort and wandered into this restaurant for a decent lunch. We had been traveling most of the day and did not have time between flights for a proper meal. The food seemed to be prepared on site and served with incredible efficiency. The calamari was tasty.

I was excited for my anniversary dinner celebration and had a horrible experience. For my stater they brought the wrong salad and my first course meal it was a disappointment. I’ve order the gnocchi and tasted like flour dough, a cement brick. Could not finish my meal.

On our first night in Vegas we were excited to eat here and opted for the set menu plus wine pairing. We were extremely disappointed. Despite the overly complex Italian descriptions of food on the menu, the dishes were very simple and lacked flavour. Having traveled extensively in Italy, the food here is a poor imitation. Our two wine pairings were very bland and tasted cheap. The servers weren’t able to even describe the names of the wines put in front of us, so we had no idea what we were drinking. A lovely ambience and dining room, but if the food and drink is bland, what’s the point?

Excellent food drinks and service. Easy to get to as its on restaurant row in the Venetian. Small bar area but inviting and energetic

If I could give 0 stars I would. I can't speak to the food, just the customer service since I never got to eat there. I made reservations about a month in advance for 9:30 pm on Sunday, 6/13, for my husband and I after our elopement. We were staying at the Venetian and excited for a special dinner. I noted that the dinner was to celebrate our nuptials. We were running late, our driver brought us back to the Palazzo by mistake so I called to inform them we'd be about 10-15 min late. The hostess or whoever it was that answered the phone said that if we did not arrive by 9:45 that we would lose the reservation. We were on our way to the restaurant and at 9:39 she called me back and told me that they were closing. What restaurant cancels a reservation 9 min past the reservation time for customers celebrating a special occasion? I'm sorry but that is not the Vegas hospitality I expected, especially on my wedding night.

We stopped at Matteo's in the Venetian on a recent visit to Las Vegas. The dinner service was exceptional. The food was very good and tasty, and service was excellent. The restaurant was quite crowded, so it's a good idea to have a reservation. We didn't have one so we ended up sitting in the bar area, which worked out just fine. We started with a burrata salad, which was very tasty and had a nice, freshly-made burrata cheese. It was just big enough to split between two people and get a nice taste. I had a chicken dish. The chicken was very moist and had a nice, unique flavor. My wife had a shrimp dish, which she thoroughly enjoyed as well. Service was very good. Food was brought out quickly, and our drinks were quickly refilled as needed. One possible complaint is that portion sizes were generally small and prices were a little on the high side. You expect this at a high-end restaurant, so it was unsurprising. However, if you're particularly hungry, this may not be the best restaurant choice for you. Overall, we had an excellent dinner experience at Matteo's, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in fine Italian dining at the Venetian.

On restaurant row, right off the Venetian Casino. Non pretentious restaurant with amazing food and excellent service. The Handkerchief pasta, with pesto, is one of the best dishes i have ever tried Fresh salads, and other pastas, like garganelli, ravioli, etc. Highly recommend it.

Great service and great food. Appetizers, escargot and French Onion soup. Perfect. Veal chop and Chilean Sea Bass grilled perfectly. Cannoli perfect and wife is a perfectionist. Rudy Kim Mgr and Jr the server were perfect. His helper was even better. Our favorite meal in Vegas in years.Desert Expresso Martinis finished off a perfect. Evening.Thanks

After reading the reviews I’m not sure we dined at the same restaurant. On the positive side the salad we shared was very good as was the service….BUT the tables were crammed together and the pasta dishes were completely bland. As if they were not seasoned at all. Even after adding pepper/salt and red pepper flakes. I’ve used TA reviews for years but I’m becoming suspicious of their authenticity recently. I wouldn’t trust them at this establishment. Just my 2 cents

Went here late on May 5 after leaving a bad restaurant nearby and they were kind enough to let us dine without a res. The food was quite good-we had a zucchini appetizer, wine, then shared both a seafood dish and short rib type pasta. Our server was quite attentive making good suggestions (sorry we forgot his name). No booths were available, but the lighting was nice, and we were glad it was not crowded as tables are close together. Overall a nice dining expereince on short notice. Would definitely come back again.

Great atmosphere and service was great! But for a $30 pasta dish I left very hungry! Portions of pasta are not big at all! Food was good just not worth the price for the amount you get!

My waiter, Mike, was terrific and friendly. The restaurant was fairly empty. Unfortunately, from top to bottom, I thought the food was quite poor. The pasta dish was overcooked and for me close to inedible. The fried brussell sprouts, a fairly typical dish, were mediocre. Finally, the salmon entree was just not particularly good -- it tasted fishy rather than super fresh, and the glaze added almost nothing. Although medium rare would probably standard, the fish was a little undercooked, definitely closer to rare and not warm in the center. No hard feelings towards this place but I would certainly not recommend.

We went because one of us was a vegetarian, and had very high hopes from the beautiful decor. The bread plate was small but interesting (esp the tomato butter), charcuterie sharing plate delicious, and the wait staff is legit amazing. Cocktails are creative and tasty. The pasta, however, was legit terrible. We got the handkerchief pasta (the best of all of it, very fresh), but the saffron pasta was gross, the linguine was so fishy it smelled across the table, and the pork/veal filled pasta was dry to the point of crunchy on the outside (AND inside). We didn't complain, but we ordered the margherita pizza instead. It was 4/5 decent, but nothing special. Ultimately, even the superb waitstaff wouldn't entice us back. One and done, and we are Venetian regulars.

The mussels on the lunch menu were way over the top good. Service was excellent and as it was our anniversary we were treated with desert by the restaurant. Good place to take the kids for an upscale lunch

Would recommend this Italian restaurant. The Calamari was the best we’ve ever had. Pasta dishes are very good. We had two, both delicious. Our server Gregory was very attentive and knowledgeable. All of the staff was great.

Very easy going atmosphere. We were greeted with a very warm welcome and were seated immediately. The food was more than ample and delicious.

Another overpriced restaurant with mediocre pasta. We did not have reservations and were at the Venetian/Palazzo for the Kenny Chesney experience. We realized we needed dinner and saw a lot of people near all the restaurants including this one. My husband went up and they said they could seat us. They were very nice, hostess, manager and server Steve. We ordered cocktails, $20.00 for a choc. martini and $18.00 for a 12 yr. old scotch. We order their bread, not great and skimpy for $8.00. It was a couple of pieces of bread, lavash and what appeared to be a piece of focaccia cut in half. served with 2 uninspiring butters. We both ordered pasta, Spaghetti and meatballs for my husband, fettuccini for me. Both our pasta dishes were overcooked and the meatballs were fair at best. No offer of grated cheese for either of our dishes. The have an area in the back where they make the fresh pasta. No one was working the night we were there, so we thought maybe it was just for show. We did see them making pasta when we were over there a day or so later. The problem was with the cooking of the pasta, probably not the making of it. I cannot recommend this restaurant. We spent over $133.00 for 2 drinks, the bread and 2 pastas and tip. We will not return even though we will be at the Venetian in October. The restaurant does not have restrooms. I had to walk out and find one around the corner several steps away. Not convenient at all. Another reviewer said upscale dining, there is nothing upscale about this restaurant

Spouse and were I in Las Vegas to take in NFR, and decided to focus on lunches rather than dinner (which would compromise rodeo time and evening activities). We began with the Fall Sangria, and sharing the Peperu appetizer, which was tasty, but neither heavy nor filling. Entrees were the "Vegana" and "Fettuccini" pasta dishes, both of which were creative in their composition of both sauce and pasta. Flavors were subtle, and pasta oh so yummy. Desserts were kept simple, with sorbet and gelato, which were enjoyed along with the Braulio and Vecchio variety of amaro. Server Joseph was pleasant, timely, helpful, and a pleasure with which to converse. Prices are significant, which is what they are for that fare on the Las Vegas Strip. We would return without hesitation.

This is a classy Italian restaurant with a pleasant and comfortable atmosphere. Prior to arriving in Las Vegas last year, my husband and I had done a lot of research on the various restaurants and had picked Matteo’s as one of the places we’d have dinner, but when the time came it was closed for a private function. So, without doing any research, we decided to try it this year. And since we hadn’t even looked at the menu in advance, we didn’t really know what anything was. We stumbled through the unfamiliar Italian words and phrases (and checked Google reviews for pictures) to pick main dishes that sounded like they might be things we liked. I went with Casonezi, which is a veal and pork ravioli cooked with brown butter and parmesan cheese (I think). It was very good and just enough to be filling, but not overstuffed (it’s rare that I can finish a meal at a restaurant, so I’d say the serving sizes are a little on the small size). My husband chose Piemontese, which is a braised short rib in a tortellini or ravioli with some kind of sauce reduction (it looked like a fettuccine sauce with froth on top). He liked his more than he liked mine, but wasn’t overly impressed with either. His had a very mild flavor and everything was very tender - almost too tender. I thought his was too plain; mine was much more flavorful. We also shared a side of Patate (roasted potatoes cooked in duck fat). They were fine, but nothing spectacular. Our waiter was polite and friendly, but seemed a little as though he was going through the motions. I’m assuming he had had a long day and was ready to be done. Overall, while the food was decent, we weren’t really impressed with Matteo’s. We probably won’t be back.

My husband and I went here for dinner. We ordered the crab pasta and braised beef. We waited around 40 minutes for our food to come out. The braised beef had nothing but fat on it. We were told that this doesn’t usually look like this, but if this is not up to quality, why even serve it? At first bite my crab pasta tasted okay (don’t remember the name on the menu but it was pasta with crab), but then had a bad aftertaste. Not worth the money or the calories 🤷🏻‍♀️

Matteo's is a hopping, lively, bustling spot. We were glad we had reservations. All six of us enjoyed our experience there. Our only complaint was the noise level, but that's part of the ambience. I could only hear the person directly beside me or directly in front of me. We all enjoyed our food and wine and we had very attentive service. We shared some salads and the cured meat, cheese, reggiano platter. Our mains were all amazingly delicious. Some of us had the ravioli with shrimp, sea bass, scallops, and cream sauce and all declared it outstanding. Matteo's has perfected the art of making pasta. Two at our table shared a steak dish and they enjoyed it. The portions are very generous. The restaurant is noisy and crowded but operates like a well-oiled machine.

Best gnocchi I've ever had outside Little Italy - 'the simple things are the hardest', true indeed. #ENDOFREVIEW

Great restaurant inside the Palazzo, authentic italian, something you have a hard time finding on the strip

Service was absolutely horrible - they are very understaffed (as are most places) but this was beyond terrible. Food was mediocre & definitely overpriced. There are much better restaurants in the Venetian!

We went in here for drinks before dinner. The bar tender was great. Several nice beers on tap, but also a wide range of cocktails. Great glassware and ice! Place was relatively quiet, which is a good thing.

Located in the Venetian hotel and casino, the restaurant serves tasty Italian classics - ravioli, pasta, lobster. Bit pricey, but special mention for the excellent dessert - warm chocolate soufflé served with vanilla sauce and ice cream. Friendly staff.

We learned about this restaurant from a best of Vegas you tube video. My husband and I ordered mandilli di seta and the tortellini. They were both very good and the service was also good.

The service here is outstanding, and the food is really good. Not your typical Italian fare. I had the prosciutto filled pasta and it was wonderful. The kale salad was so delicious, both my wife and I ate every morsel. I wanted to lick the bowl. So only four stars because my wife didn't love it as much as I did. She ordered the braised beef and felt like she was talked into it by the waiter. She didn't like it as much as she felt the waiter thought she would. I had a taste of it and thought it was delicious. But in a town filled with over-priced restaurants I felt like we got our money's worth here. Great service and good food.

This restaurant is awesome from the atmosphere , serves to the food. If you want delicious Italian food , this is a must. From cocktails, appetizers, main course to dessert. All server recommendations were on point.

Celebrating our 26th wedding anniversary in Las Vegas, we decided on Matteo's as one of two dinner spots during our trip. First, the cocktails were great! My martini was solid, and my husband ordered the pere ubu, a creative and refreshing concoction. The food was good, but the value wasn't there. We felt every item was about $5-$8 overpriced for what we got. The bread basket was really quite bad. An Italian restaurant should have excellent bread and herbed olive oil; it was all very bland, and even unpleasant. We both started with the fois gras, which was quite nice with the pistachio and huckleberry flavor combination. Mine was not perfectly clean, but my husband's was vein-free. It was the best dish we had - more great than good. For our mains: I had the handkerchief pasta, which was perfectly cooked but not as soft and silky as I expected - it was slightly pasty like it had been sitting for several minutes. My husband had the pork belly with the brussels sprouts side. He loved the richness of the pork belly and the brussels sprouts were just good, but nothing special. The service was attentive, but I wouldn't call it happy or upbeat. Everyone seemed a bit melancholy. We had indicated we were celebrating our anniversary on the reservation, but no one acknowledged it. Overall, we left satisfied, but not feeling like we had a special anniversary dinner. I would give it another try if there weren't so many other options in Restaurant Row.

we were there for lunch. Food was average and not worth the price we paid. Small portions. Server was attentive

Great place to eat. Had a meal before the U2 concert and it was excellent. Service was exceptional and they looked after us very well. Highly recommend it.

We had Lionel Richie tickets at the Wynn, but I couldn't get a reservation for dinner anywhere there. So I started looking nearby and happened on this place. Good reviews, but it did not prepare us for the absolutely incredible dinner we had! We had the veal chop and the linguine porcini. Seriously guys, we've eaten at some of the finest places around the world, and this meal was right up there with the best! To top it off, our service was beyond impeccable, Alexia our waiter and Juan her right hand man were spot on. Everyone seated around us were happy too. And Lionel Richie was the cherry on top lol! While the prices are mid-range, it was truly fine dining.

Celebrating a retirement with a trip to Vegas. Wonderful service by several of the staff. All meals were top notch. Some of the best gnocchi I've ever had. Hubby's veal parmigiana was wonderful. Ordered dessert but they also brought a special dessert treat with "Congratulations" written in chocolate on the plate. Highly recommend.

I will say that Matteo wasn't our first choice for dinner in Vegas, but our other options were booked solid, and this one had pretty good reviews. Our experience was underwhelming. Our cocktails were weak and expensive (I had a far superior vodka gimlet at the Vdara bar). The restaurant was packed, and the tables are VERY close together. Service was perfunctory, and our food was just average. I had the invernale salad and the vegana pasta. The portion sizes were ok, but my pasta was tasteless and slightly overcooked. My husband also thought his food was bland. Although the servers didn't really rush us, you could tell they just wanted to turn the table.

My husband and I found Matteo's on our first of a 3 night stay at the Venetian. We usually sit at the bar to enjoy chatting with the bartender and other patrons. Matteo's was perfect for this compared to larger, noisier bars or night clubs. Our thanks and compliments to the bartender, James, who was friendly to all while working a full bar of drinkers and diners. We did also eat here, our dinners were delicious- and that's coming from NY Italians!

No sooner than I got seated the whole place, filled up very quickly. Service was spot on. Started off with a bowl of the minestrone soup it's very yummy. Four main course had a wonderful pasta dish called Casonzel. It was fabulous. It paired very well with a nice Barbera.

We seated promptly before our reservation time. Everything we ordered came to us quickly. Our dining time was midday and not so busy. We very much enjoyed our Spaghetti and Meatballs, Handkerchief pasta with pesto, and Gnocchi. We cleaned our plates because they were delicious. We even had room for ice cream gelato dessert. Ou waiter, Juan, was very attentive and kept our glasses filled and took away our plates as soon as we finished. Friendly, polite, and professional server. Will definitely return to Matteo’s on our next LV visit.

Matteo’s has some fabulous Northern Italian dishes. We liked it so much we ate there two nights in a row, even though our hotel was almost a mile away. The roasted pork was great, as were the Brussel sprouts. Pasta was also very good.

Came to LV to relax with my family. We love to eat out at nice restaurants. Searched and found Matteo's. Reviews were good so we went. The staff is very nice, however the food was average to poor and flavorless. I would not go there again.

Avoid this restaurant. Overrated, overpriced and very mediocre service. Yet they included a 20% service charge. Service charge is something you should earn not be entitled to, and the patron has a say in what is reasonable. For an upscale Italian restaurant the choices are limited, they rushed us and I certainly have had much better food in the same hotel

We ate here on our second evening in Las Vegas. It was fun to go into the Venetian where we stayed on our last visit to Las Vegas. The food and drinks were good and enjoyed by all in our party.

We were in the Venetian in Las Vegas and discovered this new Italian restaurant. It was early, which was good, since it got quite crowded later. The decor is not fancy, but we came for the food; we were not disappointed. Matteo's makes its pasta fresh daily. They have a glass room where you can see the chefs actually making the pasta; not many restaurants do that. Having lived in Italy, I know good pasta, and the pasta at Matteo's was outstanding. The calamari was good as well. Good food is nothing without comparable service, and our service was good. They did switch waiters on us, but that was not a big deal. It is not what I consider a "fine dining" restaurant because of the decor, but foodwise, it is. As with every restaurant in a Vegas strip hotel, it was not cheap, but it was worth the money.

We were at a conference at the Venetian and did not like the look of the conference lunch, so we needed a restaurant on site that we could be in and out of in an hour so we could get back to the conference. This was excellent Italian food located right outside of the convention area, and we would eat here again. I had the short rib agnolotti, which was a bit creamier than I typically like, but it was quite good. My husband had the bolognese and said it was outstanding. Both were large portions for lunch. Our service was good, and the atmosphere is very nice. I would like to try the pizza next time as we saw several tables enjoying that as well.

Delicious food and fairly price. Not the largest selection but everything was delicious! Definitely will go back.

In addition to the food being delicious, the biggest asset to this restaurant is the AMAZING staff. Carlos, Roberto and Nikos went above and beyond to find us a table when we didn't plan very well with reservations. Roberto's service was impeccable from start to finish. Then Nikos swooped in when there was a seating issue (because they were so kind to squeeze us in) and helped solve the problem seamlessly. The food was unique and delicious. This restaurant was top notch. Great job, Gentlemen! We really appreciated the experience!

Food was different but very tasty and Italian. Wine was great tons of great Italian wine. Service was highest rating. It is pricey but worth every cent. If you come to Las Vegas and do not go there it is your loss.

We were there for a business dinner. Our waiter was top notch and the food was different but excellent! The portions were not small and it was hard to finish my main course. I would recommend this restaurant for sure!

One of our favorite meals in Las Vegas. Started with the staff and servers on top of everything. Service was great. The food was so flavorful and fresh. Everything made in house and the pasta was superb. The different scallop dishes were top notch. Steak was fantastic as well. Prices were very good as well. This restaurant is way under-rated in my opinion.

Wood was sooo good and our waitress was the best. Giving advice and couldn’t do enough. She loves what “piggies” we are lol.

First the complimentary tap water tasted like pond water. Second the food lacked flavor. Italian food is simple…don’t over complicate it. They took Ravioli which is normally flavorful and turned it into a bland, flavorless mess. Won’t be returning here.

Delicious food, with different tastes! Service was over the top! We didn’t need to wait to get in, which was nice as Vegas is busy! Calamari was grilled which was new to us and it was heavenly! Tomato soup with an egg is on the weekend brunch menu and worth every penny- delicious!

We visited in November 2020 and it was very quiet with proper social distancing. We tried their handkerchief egg pasta and port&veal filled ravioli. Both dishes were so flavorful and we will definitely go back and want to try other menus! It was our lunch and didn't want to order a bottle...but wine by glass has nice options. Our server was excellent, manager came over and check on us. Highly recommended if you are fan of homemade pasta!

Contemporary setting in the Venetian "Restaurant Row" hotel in Vegas. Extensive Italian menu that has creativity and variety in it's many selections of freshly made bronze-extruded pasta, sauces, fish and meat dishes. When I received the table bread, I instantly knew that this was not authentic Italian cuisine. The bread was good but lacking crustiness and flavor. My meat-sauce linguine was more "puttanesca" style with a pork-based sauce that was sweet and freshly made, not one that had been simmering for some time to blend the spices and tomatoes. My Mediterranean fish was served skin-side up with the San Marzano tomato-based sauce on top -I never could figure out why restaurants do this as most people remove the skin of the fish which completely removes the sauce...?? Anyhow, the tomato and root-vegetable-based sauce was tasty but simply made. And the entire stacked ensemble was on flattened greens which were unappealing. Overall, edible but was disappointed given the very creative selection and use of unusual spices, sauces and condiments in the descriptions of a very extensive menu.
