Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Circus Circus Hotel & Casino

Loved our experience here. The atmosphere was A-1, the service was excellent, attentive but not too pushy. And the amount of food you get for the price was shocking in the best way. Would recommend this spot to anyone.

We had a fantastic non-traditional Thanksgiving meal at Carmine’s, and we loved it! From the food, to the service, to the extra attention we received from Jessica, our server, the runners, and the manager, “T”, we absolutely loved it. We had the mixed salad (enough for 8, seriously), Eggplant Parmesan (our favorite thing!), a side of meatballs, and rotini with Giardiniera sauce. For dessert, we shared the Chocolate Bread Pudding with a side of vanilla ice cream. Oh…my…gosh. This was phenomenal! Jessica was attentive without being overbearing, our water was kept full (always appreciated), dishes were cleared quickly, the noise level was good, the holiday decorations were beautiful, and we even got to meet the GM. What a great experience!

Food was excellent along with service. Mushrooms paired with ribeye was absolutely delicious.

Simply lovely experience from beginning to end. I ordered the four course Anniversary menu plus the wine pairing and every bite was outstanding. The crab arrancini was delicious, but the crab wasn't pronounced. The lemon spaghetti was divine. This has been one of Giada's signature dishes and it shows. Bronzino was also exceptional with the roasted fennel and tomato's playing nicely with a perfectly cooked fish. Tiramisu was equally great! The service was impeccable from beginning to end. With great attention to detail, appropriate suggestions, and a good sense of humor. Watch out for the pepper grinder! It is a weapon. Value and atmosphere also quite good for what you expect in Vegas. The location is amazing -- it can be a little loud with the honking of street traffic (exacerbated by Formula One tear down).

Fantastic experiences and delicious food. We ordered the shrimp appetizer special- 6 large fresh prawns grilled then served on steaming hot rocks with salsa verde and melted butter sauces. A bottle of wine-wide selection from myriad Italian regions. Chicken cacciatore and pasta dishes. Did the Amaro tasting with the delightful sommelier. Pricey but then everywhere in Vegas worth its weight is. Recommend!
