Best Italian Restaurants in The Palms Hotel & Casino

We go here once a year when we travel to Vegas & thoroughly enjoy each dining experience. The food, service and ambience are impeccable. Having been to Amalfi, Italy, this is about as close as you can get this side of the Atlantic. Go with picking your own fish and select a favorite preparation. You can't go wrong.

Our experience was excellent. We had reservations and were seated immediately upon arrival. Our waiter was awesome and the food came out within a good time and hot. Also, the portions were great enough to share. Really good experience. Will revist.

I had an awesome experience at Giada’s restaurant at The Cromwell. I am celiac and they have so many wonderful gluten free options to choose from. The server was very nice and answered all of my questions. We started with the bacon wrapped dates, which were incredible. I had the signature lemon pasta dish with gluten free pasta. Definitely the best gluten free pasta I’ve ever had. And we ended the meal by sharing the Nutella cheesecake. I don’t even have the words to describe how delicious that was. I can’t recommend Gaida’s restaurant highly enough. Will certainly be going back.

I am saddened that this restaurant cannot serve gluten-free bread or pasta. The reason given to me is everything is controlled from the parent restaurant out east and Mark Vetri. I cannot imagine a top chef who isn't mindful of people's allergies. Thus, if you are a celiac, I wouldn't recommend coming here. You won't get the full Vetri experience, albeit what you may be able eat is delicious (I do not know if they can guarantee no cross-contamination since I cannot eat gluten but am not a celiac).

We ate at the Bar and it was a wonderful experience. Lindsey and Ryan were tremendous hosts (bar tenders). We felt like we were in their home as they engaged with us on so many levels. They were advisors on both food and drink, attentive to our needs, and they provided interesting conversation. The food was outstanding, too. We really enjoyed the Cremini Mushroom Pizzette and the Shaved Brussel Sprouts Salad.
