Best Italian Restaurants in The STRAT Hotel & Casino

Old school Italian restaurant with too many great choices. Our server (Rob) was attentive and a lot of fun. We ordered a salad, 2 main entrees and dessert for 6, plus 1 bottle of wine (Chianti) and that was enough food without any leftovers. Tried 2 new items - the Rigatoni country style and the Italian cheesecake - and they did not disappoint. Veal Parmigiana and Ceasar Salad (including anchovies on the side) were also very good.

We sat at the bar and had an amazing time. She was the only lady bartender. She was very knowledgeable, friendly and took care of all guests professionally. Food was great and came out quickly. My only criticism are the hostesses that seat you need to engage and smile more.

This was my first trip to Vegas in over 30 years. We came specifically to check out the restaurant scene. Esther's Kitchen was the only restaurant we selected that was off the strip, and boy was it worth the (very short) trip. We came for lunch, were greeted by friendly staff and seated immediately. The vibe is hip, casual, and super comfortable. I ordered the roasted mushroom pizza and the pear and radicchio salad. The pizza may have been the best I have ever tasted (and I've eaten A LOT of NYC pizza). The crust was heavenly and the combination of mushroom, cheese and garlic was perfection. But wait, that salad; I'm still dreaming about it!! It had the most incredible sherry vinaigrette and roasted hazelnuts with blue cheese. Hubby ordered the charcuterie board and the kale salad. The board had an abundance of delicious salty meats, fine cheeses, picked vegetables and grilled sourdough bread with butter and strawberries in saba. Just delicious!!! We ordered way too much food for the two of us, but managed to finish most of it. You could EASILY split a pizza and a salad and be completely satisfied. Next time we're in Vegas, we will DEFINITELY come back to Esther's.

Went late afternoon. Numerous happy hour items available (happy hour 2-7). Split a Margherita Pizza and salad with my wife. Service was great and food was excellent and very reasonable! Highly reccomend!

Went for the magic show and drinks before dinner. The magic show was fun and the magicians were very entertaining. Not much of a wine selection but I would come back, service was great but the bartender had no idea about wine.
