What People Say

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the homemade pasta, friendly service, and excellent value. Many mention how much they appreciate the charming mom-and-pop feel and the fact that it’s consistently tasty without being overpriced. The garlic bread and house wine get frequent shout-outs, and guests love the “hidden gem” vibe away from the Strip’s crowds.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the decor is a bit dated and the ambiance more casual than trendy. It’s not the place for a flashy Vegas night out—but that’s part of its charm. Also, while it’s close to several venues, it’s best to drive or rideshare, as walking may not be ideal depending on the time of day.
