Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Sam's Town Hotel & Gambling Hall

It’s always a good idea to enjoy a meal at Battista’s on a Vegas trip. We’ve been on each of our last 4 trips to Vegas. The food and service are consistently great. We love going for an early dinner around 5pm when it’s a little less crowded. Make a reservation for smooth sailing.

Loved the bottomless mimosas!! Definitely worth every penny and they don’t skimp on the alcohol at all. Servers were easy going and accommodating to our requests - great experience overall. I got the short rib hash and while the beef was absolutely delicious, I wish they had separated it from the hash. The potatoes ended up being soggy after absorbing all that delicious beef sauce but I KNOW they were crispy before they plated them that way so tips: ask for the hash on the side if u like your potatoes crispy. Def would go again to try other things as everything was yummy!

HIGHLIGHTS: Arancini, squash blossoms, white mushroom truffle pizza. LOWLIGHT: celery root. On our latest trip to Vegas, we visited Crossroads twice. The first night we were all in to taste as many new items as possible. We started with ricotta-stuffed squash blossoms which were a real treat. Three to an order but our server added a fourth to prevent a fight (even split that way). Could not resist the broccoli arancini which were, forgive me, orgasmic. Crispy, creamy, heaven-on-a-plate. We couldn’t pass on the mushroom-truffle (oil) white pizza. It had a prefect crust and was imbued truffle flavor. They offered a shaved truffle option, but it was black truffles and if I’m going to splurge they’ve got to be white so we passed but it would’ve been overkill anyway. I wanted to try the celery root bc it sounded interesting. It was like repurposing trash. Sounded fancy, topped with apple, caviar, sour cream. I like celery. This was too much celery flavor and the caviar was completely lost. It was just confusing. Paired it with a white Sicilian wine which was perfect. Night two: we just wanted a snack, so we ordered wedge salads, the pizza again, and celebrated with a glass of Prosecco each. The actual blue cheese is a real treat. We eat here every trip without fail, at least once, usually two times a three times, which is why we passed on the pastas, at which they excel. If it’s your first visit, try one of those, too. You’re gonna love it.

Absolutely wonderful food and service. Great ambience. The only drawback is the lettering for the name of the restaurant lol 😂 not one of us could identify it because it was a weird squiggly cursive looking sign that we passed by twice and had to finally ask somebody if that was it. Otherwise that might be considered a pro so that other people don’t find it and go into it so we can have it all to ourselves next time. 😃

The food was fantastic. The place was Beautiful and everyone was fantastic. Will go back again.
