Buddy V's Ristorante

Giving a meal five stars might seem generous, but this one was truly exceptional. We kicked off with the tomato basil soup, which was incredibly rich and creamy; easily among the finest I’ve tasted. Next came the garlic cheese bread, perfectly baked with a generous cheesy crust. The lasagna followed, which we shared, yet still had enough leftovers to enjoy later—both filling and delicious well past dinnertime, possibly the best I've encountered at a restaurant. The staff offered attentive and friendly service. Considering it's Vegas, the pricing was reasonable. I can't recommend this spot enough!

The team at Buddy V's Ristorante always exudes friendliness and joy! Our waiter was wonderfully attentive, making the entire experience delightful. The food is exceptional, with the pasta dishes being the best I've enjoyed in years! Some areas offer views of the strip that add an extra touch of magic. The service is impressively swift, especially given the quality of the food. I wholeheartedly recommend stopping by if you're visiting the Venetian. Also, don't miss Buddy V's Cake Shop across from the restaurant for a perfect dessert to take home!

First off, a big shout out to our server, Ariss, who was phenomenal—personable, funny, knowledgeable about the menu, and attentive. For a “celebrity chef” Vegas restaurant, this is definitely one of the top choices for casual dining. The food was excellent, and the atmosphere was fun. The bread service with the focaccia was perfect. The tableside service of the smoked ricotta was impressive, and the chicken dishes were spot on. I highly recommend this place for Italian cuisine on the strip that isn't pretentious. It's a fun restaurant!

A year ago in Vegas, we discovered Buddy V's Ristorante on our last day and were blown away by the exceptional service and delicious food. We just had to visit again this year with the kids, and once again, it did not disappoint. Our waiter was incredibly attentive and quick. The gentleman bussing our table was humorous and friendly, keeping our drinks topped off and the table spotless without us even needing to ask. We highly recommend this restaurant and definitely plan to return next year!

I first visited Buddy V’s Ristorante five years ago and absolutely loved it, so a return visit was well overdue. This latest experience did not disappoint; if anything, it was even better than before. The food was delicious, from the appetizers to the entrees, and the portion sizes were generous. I found the pricing to be very reasonable, given the quality and quantity of the dishes. Our waitress was extremely friendly and provided excellent advice when we were making our selections. Additionally, they serve delicious focaccia to start, and my water glass was never empty. I highly recommend Buddy V’s Ristorante to everyone and can't wait to come back again soon.

I can't praise Buddy V's Ristorante enough. Even without reservations, they were able to seat our party of two. The service started off a bit slow, but our server Jesus was fantastic - attentive, funny, and helpful. The food was incredible, with plenty of flavor and generous portions. We split the shrimp scampi, which was just the right size. The manager even stopped by to check on us and we had nothing but positive things to say. I would definitely go back and recommend this place to others.
