    We have eaten at Bootlegger for years, and not once were we told the chef refuses to accommodate a request. A simple request to double the veggies instead of the pasta! NEVER until this evening! Also, the server asked us if we were ready to order our food on his first visit to the table. Coffee was not hot as well. So disappointing. This definitely will affect us returning in the near future.

    Great service and excellent food. We had another great experience and love that we can enjoy a nice meal close by our house. We are locals and try to eat here every now then.

    Always consistently a great experience here. My family has been coming here since 1965 although it was in a different location at that time. Ambiance is very welcoming and relaxing and the food is always a 10. Italian, steaks, seafood and delicious desserts. From the hosts at the front entrance to the servers, the bartenders and support staff everyone always has a good attitude and is extremely helpful. This is pretty much non existent in most restaurants especially here in Vegas. They also have entertainment that is first rate. I highly recommend The Bootlegger!

    Food was amazing and they brought out these garlic bread slices to begin with and the sauce they left for it is what they knocked out of the park with. Four guests at that table not one person complained about food service or anything. It was very busy that night and the food was a few more minutes late than usual. But then here they come with more of those garlic bread slices and that put me at ease real quick. Oh the dessert forget it, once you eat that good night and sweet dreams or shall I say in our situation a very sweet night for the ladies with us. 10 stars my friends.

    Well worth the trip-- definitely going to return. A lot of the local Italian restaurants here are just Olive Gardens wearing a Scooby Doo mask. Bootlegger is not-- live entertainment, super nice staff, good portions, and the food was great too. Skip the rest and go to Bootlegger.

    I grew-up in Vegas and lived there for 40 years. I love and appreciate the nostalgia of The Bootlegger. I grew-up going to the old location and was excited about going. The service was great. But, it’s the food. Wanted to love it. It was just subpar. The little garlic knots were like charcoal briquettes. Hard as rocks. Marinara dipping sauce was lackluster. The Italian lemon drop was so strong, all you could taste was the alcohol. Tasted cheap. At $18, it wasn’t even sippable. Veal Scallopine was tasty. Bolognese was okay. Overall, I don’t think I’ll go back, but it’s okay.

    Our server, Rhonda, recommended the chef’s special Chilean sea bass and three out of four of us ordered it. Now, we go out for dinner quite frequently and we’ve eaten at the Bootlegger many times. The sea bass tonight was the best meal I’ve EVER had at this restaurant. In fact, it was the best seafood I’ve ever eaten. All three of us ate til we were stuffed and then continued eating! The dish was served with three of the largest shrimp I’ve seen and they were also perfectly cooked and delicious. Of course you can’t go wrong with any of the pastas or entrees at the Bootlegger but I will go back WHENEVER the chef has Chilean sea bass as a special!
