Italian dining has come a long way in Las Vegas, evolving well beyond the Italian-America classics that once defined it. Today you can find everything from red sauce comfort foods to elegant coastal cuisine, and plenty of options in between. So, while every casino will likely have some sort of Italian restaruant to serve its guests, they all offer very different fare. And that’s great for serious foodies.
Whether you’re craving house-made pasta, prime steaks with Italian flair, or seafood fresh from a market-style display, the restaurants on this list bring both traditional and modern approaches to the Strip. Expect top-tier ingredients and thoughtful wine pairings in dining rooms that range from casually energetic to effortlessly luxurious.
