Scarpetta - Paradise

My meal at Scarpetta was, without exaggeration, the best tasting meal I?ve had in my lifetime. My wife also thought hers was top 3. The service was excellent. For the quality of food and service, and the view we got, it was well worth the prices. I had the gnocchi and my wife had the spaghetti with a chicken parmigiana. We had the antipasto to start.

We went on a Monday at 7pm. We didn't need a reservation, though we sat at the booths near the bar, which I didn't care for. They were kinda isolating. The food was amazing though. Their complimentary bread is so good, some of them are almost like Italian meat sandwiches. The butter was good, and eggplant dip good too. We had two baskets of the bread. Calimari was good, according to my friends. I got a drink that sounded like a cranberry vodka with other stuff. It went down smoothly. My gnocchi was delicious. My friends' risotto and... other item were reportedly good. And my bombolini was good. I didn't want overwhelming chocolate, so I asked if I could have the amaretto gelato with it instead of the default. They obliged. I would totally go here again.

We were craving for an authentic Italian cuisine and Scarpetta didn?t disappoint. We highly recommend this place if ever you visit Las Vegas, the food is excellent, dessert is awesome. And shout out to our amazing server Luis, he was spot on on his recommendations from the menu and very entertaining too. You must try their classic spaghetti and the panacotta, these are superb ??

The views were great...service very good...scallops appetizer was delicious! Loved the salad...drinks were strong...Short Ribs could have been a little more tender...Salted Caramel Bundino was a little salty...overall a pretty good place!

We enjoyed the tasting menu so much during our last visit that we had to do it again. The food and the wine pairing is such an absolute treat. I don't particularly care for seafood but their oysters with champagne mignonette was a definite palate pleaser! My favorite dish still remains the spaghetti.
