I lived in Italy for a few years abs my wife is from Vegas, so one if my favorite things to do when we're out here I'd try different Italian places. I do feel that the staff was pretty snooby and not at all welcoming. The server was American and didn't speak any Italian. (I think nice Italian places should have Italian staff that can pronounce the menu if they write it in Italian)\n\nThe food was good and authentic, but way over priced. I have ate at many places that have better and more authentic food in Vegas. You do pay for the \""wine bar\""atmosphere. Very nice place, elegant, but a little too snooty for my liking. Italians are some if the most welcoming people and I like to get an Italian atmosphere when I pay as much as I did. The food you can get better for less elsewhere! If it were not for the high bill it would have got a better review, but when you charge me much higher prices, I expect better taste and better service... neither was found here.
