Scarpetta Las Vegas

We recently had a celebratory dinner at Scarpetta Las Vegas, and it was truly a memorable experience. It was my second time dining there, and everything was just as amazing as I remembered. The service, food, and ambiance exceeded expectations. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a classy meal with an incredible view of the Strip.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Scarpetta Las Vegas before now! It is, without doubt, my favorite restaurant in Las Vegas. I make it a point to visit every time I'm in town and have introduced countless friends to this gem. Scarpetta never fails to impress! Their iconic spaghetti with tomato and basil remains unparalleled, consistently setting the gold standard. This visit, we ventured out and tried different pastas, including one with short ribs that was absolutely divine. It might even become my new favorite! And let's not forget the delightful breadbasket. Dining at Scarpetta is always an exceptional experience!

Scarpetta Las Vegas offers a wonderful dining experience with memorable dishes. The Caesar salad was delicious, and the duck foie gras ravioli stood out as the highlight of the meal. The veal, however, would have benefitted from an additional sauce as it was quite dry. Similarly, while the sautéed mushrooms were delicious, they could have used some added moisture. The flourless chocolate cake paired perfectly with the remaining wine. Service was professional but somewhat perfunctory, with Somm Diego being particularly commendable. The only drawback regarding ambiance was the sun shining directly into the eyes for about 15-20 minutes without any available shade. Additionally, it was disappointing that the view of the Bellagio water show was obstructed by a large bar across the window. Despite these minor inconveniences, a return visit is certainly in order. However, opting for a window seat might not be necessary given the obstructed view and potential for direct sunlight.

Scarpetta Las Vegas was a fantastic choice for a pre-show dinner. The restaurant's emphasis on bold flavors using seasonal ingredients was evident in every dish we tried. The in-house made pasta was a highlight, paired with high-quality, locally sourced ingredients. The service at Scarpetta was truly impeccable, from our table server to the Sommelier. Everyone was friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Despite initially thinking the portions might be too large, we decided to share our plates and were pleasantly surprised. The kitchen split our first two courses onto individual plates, which turned out to be the perfect amount for us. Our chosen dishes included the Duck & foie gras ravioli with marsala reduction, Veal chop Milanese with arugula salad and cherry tomatoes, and a Cherry and pistachio mousse cake with cherry ice cream. Each dish was delicious, with the ravioli being rich and decadent, the veal chop cooked perfectly, and the dessert a sweet ending to our meal. We paired our meal with a superb Valpolicella red wine, followed by excellent Grappa and Vin Santo to finish off the night. Thank you, Scarpetta Las Vegas, for a truly exceptional dining experience.

My experience at Scarpetta Las Vegas was fantastic! The tasting menu was delicious and every dish was amazing. If you find yourself in Vegas, I highly recommend dining at Scarpetta.

The service at Scarpetta Las Vegas is truly exceptional, especially with server LUIS. He always goes above and beyond to provide excellent service. The food is great as well, particularly the Caesar salad which is one of the best I've ever had with a unique and tasty flavor. The octopus appetizer also stood out with its delicious and unique flavor. The calamari was good but not as amazing as some reviews suggest. The spaghetti was a bit too al dente for my liking, requiring extra effort to chew, but the sauce was very flavorful. Highly recommend trying the Branzino for a main course, as it is full of flavor and cooked perfectly. And be sure to save room for dessert, especially the amazingly delicious chocolate cake which is incredibly yummy.
