House bread
Priya K.

This is a nice little Italian restaurant in Sun city summerlin. They have happy hour daily from 3-5 pm. We tried some dishes from happy hour and some from the main menu. Pollo gorgonzola and meatballs are the best! Our server was great!

Pistachio Ricotta

Brunello LV is a nice neighborhood Italian Restaurant located in the Sun City part of Summerlin. At the time of my visit they serve wine but are waiting for a full liquor license. Inside is nice with fancy modern tables and chairs and LOTS of Sofia Loren Photos everywhere. All the food and service was good. (meatballs, salads, salmon, desserts) Portions were generous and pricing was reasonable. My only real issue is Table 21 is a pain to be seated at because it's squished too close to bigger tables and people can't get by to use the restrooms. Also the music guy asks you to get up out of your seat because he can't get by either. Parking is close and easy.

Tapendade for dipping your bread.

I came here thinking I would order from the Restaurant Week menu. Instead, I was taken by their menu and decided to do my own thing. Brunello was recommended by a friend and it was one of my bookmarks for a long time. The restaurant is fairly small and attractive. I was served water immediately. The hostess had given me several menus for wine, regular items, and the RW menu. In short order, a server came and I had a few questions. He affirmed that the calamari was a starter for sharing. (Why don't restaurants do half orders for solo diners?) Instead, I ordered the Gamberi al Scoglio for a starter-- 5 large shrimp in as pomodoro sauce with onion, white wine, and olive oil. For the main course, I ordered the mushroom ravioli. Later, I finished with pistachio ricotta cheesecake. I was brought some bread and a dish with tomato tapenade for dipping the bread. In a short while, my shrimp dish arrived. The pomodoro was very hot. The tomatoes, especially the skin, was blistering, but it was OK. One just had to use care when eating the tasty dish. The shrimp were large and the whole dish was very good. Then I was taken aback as I saw my server walking toward me with a dinner plate. Since I had two more shrimp to eat, I was guessing I was getting my ravioli and that's what it was. This is something that I dislike. There should be some break in bewteen courses. Instead, the ravioli sat on the other side of the table while i finished the shrimp. The ravioli was excellent. Mushroom filling in the ravioli and also a lot of mushrooms on top in a sauce. I really enjoyed it. After the dishes were cleared, and a short wait, my server returned and I asked to see the dessert menu. The pistachio ricotta cheesecake caught my eye and that's what I ordered. He brought it and it was very good. It was sot and creamy and there were a lot of pistachio pieces around the cheesecake. A good ending to the meal. When the bill was brought, it had a QR code on it so you can pay on your phone at the table. I like this so much as it's convenient and the server is free to do other tasks. I paid using the Toast scan and I left. I'm not sure about a return visit. Bringing the main course before it should be is a major problem for me. I like to have a short time between courses. If you're with friends, it gives you some time to talk. I automatically deduct a star for this serving failure when it happens--which is rare! If not for the serving misstep, it would be a solid 4 stars.

Fennel and orange salad
Hanna S.

We visited for the Restaurant Week menu, which was both more varied and better priced than much of the competition. Fennel-orange and pear salads: good, if not exciting. Gnocchi con cipolla with Brie and sausage: ultra rich and delightful. It offered all the comfort of mac'n cheese with European flavors. It reminded me a lot of the national dish I enjoyed in Bratislava, which is potato dumplings with creamy sheep's cheese and bits of bacon. The portion was plenty for two meals. Chicken Milanese: a huge portion of chicken and arugula salad. I loved the perfectly crisp crust and juicy interior, but it was a bit bland. A good shake of salt helped. Chocolate temptation and pistachio ricotta cheesecake: both desserts were meltingly delicate, with layers of sponge cake and mousse. I wouldn't have used the term "cheesecake" -- it's more special than that. I'd call it a torte or mousse cake. Surprisingly, the chocolate one was the sweeter of the two. Don't miss the pistachio option. The waitstaff was obviously working hard, but overstretched. We waited for water refills that never came, etc. The room was comfortable, but could be a lot nicer. Think white tile floors and plastic chairs. That said, I do love the wall art celebrating Sophia Loren eating pasta! Now that's a lifestyle aspiration I can get behind. My husband and I had a table, but the bar seemed quite convivial at 5:30 on a Tuesday. If I were looking for a place to dine solo, this would be high on the list.

Had an amazing early dinner / happy hour. The service (Oscar) was exceptional and the food was delicious. We will definitely back to try more items.

Cioppino
Shannon L.

My friend taught me about this place that recently opened last year. Everything is handmade from scratch. Fyi because service and food can be a tad slow, but the kitchen is an ooen kitchen so you can see the chef preparing everything. Warm bread, pasta, and the star of the show is the Cioppino. I've never had it with the thin layer of bread across the top. It's perfect to dip into the sauce. The seafood components are all perfectly cooked. Tender and juicy clams, mussels, scallops, squid, shrimp. The pasta specialties are very flavorful and the perfect al dente chew on the pasta. Don't forget to try a dessert. Tiramisu is what we got and we don't regret it.

Tessa R.

The food was delicious!! The manger Oscar was amazing! The best service! He was so personal and helped pair my drinks to my dinner. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes and come to happy hour! The place is so cute with beautiful mirrors for decor.

Therese A.

Nice evening at Brunello. Food was good. Service a bit slow but good. Overall nice night! I think this is a fairly new restaurant - the $45 summer special was tempting & im sure good but we opted to order from the regular menu! Everything was delicious! Looks like they have a nice patio as well so will check that out next time!

Was looking for dinner in Summerlin and decided to try out Brunello LV. We made reservations on a Friday night via OpenTable. Upon arriving to the restaurant, we were shocked at how empty it was, with only a couple of tables occupied. This honestly made us a little weary, as we expected the restaurant to be more bustling on a Friday. In terms of aesthetics, Brunello overall lacks the elegance I would've expected from an expensive Italian restaurant. To start our dinner, we were given bread to dip in olive oil and balsamic or a sun-dried tomato tapenade. The bread was fresh, crunchy, and had a great flavor. For my appetizer, I ordered a Pear Heaven salad. The salad was a big portion for the price and tasted fresh. My one complaint about the salad is the one note salad dressing. For dinner, I ordered the pollo Marsala, which came with sautéed veggies and roast potatoes. The chicken was a tiny bit tough, and I'm not sure it entirely reminded me of chicken Marsala, but it was good. The veggies and potatoes on the other hand were an absolute no. They were drenched in oil and completely lacked any flavor. Additionally, the portion size of the chicken Marsala was definitely on the smaller side for the price. Our waitress was very friendly and answered all of our questions. However, the service needs work. For the restaurant being almost empty, it took 20 minutes to receive our salads and an additional 20 minutes to get our entrees. Overall, not a great experience at Brunello. The prices are pretty expensive for a rather casual Italian restaurant. While the food is decent, I unfortunately don't think I'll be returning.

Pistachio and Ricotta Cheesecake!
Natasha I.

5 STARS! Brunello is a great place for dinner! All of the food is very delicious! Especially, the Brunello signature with homemade pasta! The chicken piccata and chicken Parm are also very good. They have yummy desserts such as chocolate temptation, crème brûlée, tiramisu, and pistachio cheesecake! The service is always wonderful here! The owner, Inga, is always very friendly and makes sure that everyone is happy! Our waiter Oscar had a great personality and was very funny. Last but not least, there is a buslady by the name of Loretta, who is a total sweetheart! I highly recommend this fantastic gem of a restaurant!

Linguini Al Gorgonzola E Pistachio
Robert S.

We visited on Thursday for lunch with a party of two and it was a very nice experience. We were seated right away in a very clean dining area and drink orders were taken. Their house white wine is refreshing. We started with the Pear Heaven Salad and Meatballs. The salad was very large and fresh and the meatballs were quite tasty. From there we went with Frutti di Mare and Linguini Al Gorgonzola E Pistachio as entrees. Both were well prepared and delicious. The only slight down vote was that the linguini portion could have been larger. The service was very good, the waitress was polite, prompt and professional. The military discount was appreciated. Overall, a great place for Italian fare.

Pollo Parmesan.
Steven M.

I was back in Las Vegas for a night to celebrate my mother in laws birthday, so we decided to give Brunello LV a shot. We came here on a Saturday night where it was semi busy when we arrived, although the place emptied out at a decent speed. The staff was friendly throughout the night although the kitchen seemed a bit understaffed for a Saturday night. On the inside, this place looks like a pretty standard Italian restaurant with nothing new presentation wise to really make it standout, not there's anything wrong with that. The menu is pretty much what you would expect, with appetizers, entrees, and desserts, all of which I sampled a bit of. For an appetizer I sampled both the Fried Calamari and the meatballs, for an entree I ordered the chicken parmigiana, and for desert I split a slice of the "chocolate temptation". My thoughts? Fried Calamari- It was fine, but nothing more. Nothing to really make this stand out at all. Meatballs- I ate one meatball and similar to the fried calamari, it was simply okay. The price you pay for the size you get definitely doesn't work out here. Chicken Parmesan- The pasta here was solid enough, and the chicken itself was decent. The size of the chicken, the breading, and the sauce all get a decent thumbs up from me, definitely the highlight of the meal. Chocolate Temptation- Honestly, this tasted like a slice of cake you would get from a grocery store. It was fine. Overall, Brunello LV is new to Las Vegas and I'm hoping things improve over time. I don't think this is a bad restaurant by any means, but this place is way too forgettable in a city full of incredible places with incredible experiences.

Fantastic, locally owned Italian restaurant. Haven't had pasta like this since our meal in Italy. Home made pasta and pink sauce excellent sausage makes this a truly "special" special. The pizza was made of gluten free crust and couldn't tell the difference between non gluten-free crust. We enjoyed the Chianti as well. Service was very friendly and informative explaining entrees and homemade deserts. We ended with the Tiramisu - made in house and like ours in Italy! These folks have a great ambiance, friendly service and excellent food - don't miss out. Be warned - this isn't Ragu and Barillo. It's real home made pasta and sauce.

And now I know why. Hubby and I tried this restaurant this week and are already anxious to return. It is a small site with nine tables located in a strip mall. The decor is lovely and you feel very welcome and cozy. It is easy to find and has plenty of parking. We ordered chicken paprikash and beef bourguignon for our entrees. Both were fantastic. Hubby said his bourguignon is better and for the sake of my marriage, I'll agree. For you Yelpers, there is not much difference between his and theirs, especially since you'll never taste his. Both were outstanding. And who would think that a couple slices of sour dough bread with herbed butter can be that delicious? I've NEVER had better sour dough bread. This went so well with a nice Bordeaux that we ordered along with the potato pancakes with smoked salmon. I am so anxious to go back and try other entrees. Debora was our server and she was on top of her game, even as busy as the restaurant was. She was so personable and sincerely smiled throughout our lunch. To Bites of Europe management and staff . . . thank you for a most lovely lunch and best wishes for your continued success. Please consider opening at 11:00 am AND expanding your restaurant. Everything was absolutely outstanding.

We'd requested a booth when making the reservation and were ushered to a very nice corner location with subdued but adequate overhead lighting. Although there were two large groups in the middle of the restaurant and background music was playing, noise levels were not disruptive, probably due to dampening by to the open ceiling. Overall, the vibe was lively and warm. Started with shopska and melitzano salads and purlenka, all of which were excellent. My companion had a half liter of the house red which, while costing less than one glass of wine at most decent restaurants, was quite drinkable and well complimented the food -- wish more restaurants would offer house wines in carafes. I enjoyed sipping the more traditional rakia throughout the meal. My partner had the beef filet kabobs which were a perfect medium as ordered, tender, well seasoned, with good beef flavor. She also enjoyed the accompanying salad which was extremely fresh. I had the mixed grill with which they graciously substituted a lamb chop for the standard pork chop. All the sausage components were very tasty, especially when complimented with dabs of the included lutenitza. Only negative was that the lamb chop was tough, gristly, and fatty -- I should have stuck with the pork chop. Servings were large, we both were unable to finish our entrees, and departed with leftover boxes. Always room for desert, however, and we devoured the delicious biscuit cake. Final impressions; great place with a lively atmosphere, excellent food and drink at very affordable prices with outstanding service. Already looking forward to our next visit.
