Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Paradise

My family and I were running late due to rush hour traffic here in Las Vegas. I called the Hostess and she was very helpful, I explained we were running late and she mentioned they can hold the reservation for 15 mins, but she also made a notation on our reservation as well. Once we arrive, we were greeted and our table was ready. The food, ambiance and staff were all pretty amazing. The food entrees are family style dining, so be prepared to share. We ordered the porter house steak, eggplant parmigiana, shrimp cocktail and garlic butter penne with shrimps. The total bill was pretty pricey but well worth the money! I will definitely visit again.

This was my third or fourth visit to Battista's, and once again, it exceeded expectations! This iconic Vegas restaurant is rich with history, offering not just a meal but a truly memorable experience. OpenTable was a game-changer—when we arrived, we bypassed a long line of guests without reservations, and the Battista's team promptly escorted us to our table. Outstanding service and atmosphere! We’ll definitely be back!

Great experience. Food was good and very reasonable portion. For once I did not overeat and went for a desert, which was awesome!!!

Our bartender/server Molly was amazing! The best service that we have had in a long time. She was so sweet and help and even gave us a champagne toast for my birthday. Just that small touch made our night. We loved her. We shared the famous lemon pasta (that we get every time we come) and the half servings were perfect. Yeah, that pasta is fantastic. Thanks again to Molly…what a gem. The wine prices are a little too high for a glass of wine…I would have ordered one, but couldn’t justify it. Thanks though…a great night at the bar.

We love this place. First off the food is top notch. I went old school with lasagna and it was very good. It's a huge portion and it has both beef and pork in it with plenty of cheese and flavor. Highly recommend. My wife had the butternut squash ravioli and said it was good too. Drinks were good as well. I had the limoncello flight which was the only change I would have made. I thought I liked limoncello better than I actually do. But my wife's drink was great and I've had good drinks in the past. The service is always first rate too. And lastly, if you can snag a seat facing the casino floor there's plenty to see while you're dining. It's a 10/10 experience.
