The food here is consistently wonderful! I have been here several times and ordered something different each time and every time I am pleased. I highly recommend checking out the extensive wine list and the “secret menu” truffle mac and cheese.
The reason for the loss of a star is that it is very dim in there requiring a flashlight to read the menu and on my most recent visit we waited ~18 minutes before anyone came to greet us/ take our drink order (we had to find someone and ask for our waiter to be sent over). However, it was immediately rectified by their manager who apologized on behalf of the waiter.
Overall, a lovely place for Italian food and a great stop at the casino.
This place is right on point. Amazing environment. Amazing food. And amazing service. A great combination. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for the real deal in an Italian restaurant.
This place was EXQUISITE. Not only was the food perfectly cooked, the drinks were great. Our server Nick was amazing who offered us all the specials and was very attentive. This is the place to go.
Good God did we have a wonderful experience... The ambiance, food & staff were quite exquisite. I have been trying to make it here for a while and now that I finally have I cannot wait to return. Hands down the best restaurant experience I have had in a casino. Bravo!
The ambiance was lovely, however, every table had their phones out for light to see the menu. In other words, it's very dark, so bring your spectacles and flashlights. The food was very good. We started with the meatballs, which were very tender, and the truffle ricotta was a nice touch. Normally my fiance and I get different dishes so we can each try them, but we both wound up getting the Lune pasta dish. It's very sweet, with a honey crisp apple crumble, and sweet potato filling. It was like a dessert and dinner in one. It was a very creative dish, but again very sweet. As far as prices go, well, two meatballs was $12. And the cheapest by the glass wine was $11. The staff was very attentive, and well trained, and overall personable. I can't say if the food was really worth the engorged pricing, but it wasn't exactly a disappointment either. I mean, I did clear my plate in record time. Overall, a nice, intimate atmosphere, with good food, and a good place if you really want to impress your date. But not someplace I would visit regularly.
