We went to Raos on Christmas Day evening because we had tickets to Absinthe, outside of Caesars Palace and this place was close by.  During our entire dining experience I was thinking how we'd made a mistake by not going to the new and improved Bacchanal buffet for the same price.  Service was so-so with the waiter paying us minimal attention when we decided not to order drinks (we were offered no wine menu).  \n\nUpside was the Fritto Misto appetizer bigger than most main courses with the gigantic shrimp and calamari fried perfectly.  We ordered the lamb chops, spaghetti bolognese, lemon chicken and the eggplant Parmesan.  The eggplant was hands down awful, small poker chip sized slices breaded and deep fried to a tasteless and dry consistency.  The small amount of tomato sauce couldn't help these things.  The spaghetti was only slightly better.  Thank god the portions were small.  The best dish was the lamb chops, perfectly cooked.  The chicken was only OK.  $200 for four adults with no drinks, Olive Garden could have done better.
