    Spaghetti Carbonara
    Saphace A.

    There's a lot of pricey places on the strip, but this one was one of my favorites. Everything tasted good and service was exceptional! We started off with drinks: Cafe Paradiso (their version of an espresso martini. Not overly sweet and perfect espresso flavor.), instant crush, and La granita. For apps, we got: half dozen oysters (tiny but fresh), veal meatballs (so tender), and the pull apart garlic bread. The meatballs and bread were highly recommended by our server. Excellent! Would definitely order both again. For entrees, I wanted to go lighter since I was going to be on a flight in a few hours. I got the bone marrow as my meal. Delicious, tender, flavorful. I loved it! My friends got pastas: rigatoni, bolognese, spaghetti carbonara. We also shared steak fries and roasted broccoli. Yummmm!! They had dessert too, so we shared the tart. Honestly, one of the best experiences I had from beginning to end. Can't wait to come back here! It was a hot day but the patio would be beautiful on a cooler day. Service is also great. Our server was really nice. Gave us a rundown of the menu. They made sure we had refills on water, checked on us a lot if we liked the food or needed more drinks. Had a really great time here!

    We were craving Italian food and this place has great reviews. It's on the 2nd floor of Planet Hollywood with a very cool and spunky vibe. However, everything fell pretty short especially at the price point it was at. The veal meatballs were the best with a great crunch on the outside with a gooey cheese. The fries were recommended by the server but was extremely average. The chicken parm was very dry. The carbonara was good but a little too thick and dense in flavor to the point you get sick of it. Unfortunately, I do not plan on coming back.

    Meh. My husband and I are locals and came here before the concert we saw at PH live. It was right up the stairs from the concert venue which was very convenient. We sat on the terrace a sunset and it was so beautiful! However, I heard online that they offer a discount to locals but was informed by our server Manuel at the end of dinner, they don't do that anymore. Not the end of the world, but the food was just mediocre. We got the tuna tartar appetizer, chicken parm, salmon, fries and broccoli. It came out to a $200 dinner and most items were ok at best. I did think the appetizer was unique and worth it and fries were also good. But everything else felt extremely overpriced. The $18 broccoli was luke warm and tastes like they had just boiled it with no spices. The mains were fine, but again not really anything special to justify the price tag. To be honest, the only reason I picked this spot for us was because of the local discount and since the food we had wasn't anything special I probably wouldn't come back.

    Social Hour: Garden Salad
    Diana R.

    Love the new happy hour here! It runs Sundays through Wednesdays from 4-7pm in the cute bar & lounge area. Their "Social Hour" menu has a good variety of delicious sounding food items, select cocktails, beer, wine, and prosecco, all for $10 each (see menu attached). We didn't have a reservation but there was plenty of seating still available in the lounge when the two of us arrived around 5:45 on a Tuesday. We were promptly greeted by bartenders and a server. Ordered a glass of wine each, plus three food items to share. All came out very efficiently, and were DELICIOUS! My faves were the Spicy Tomato Penne and the Meatballs. The Garden Salad was nice and light -- and huge -- and balanced the other items well. It was the perfect amount of food for 2 adults wanting a light dinner (by Vegas standards). Service was friendly and attentive throughout the night. They didn't feel "judgy" at all about us only ordering off the Social Hour menu, which has happened at other places! Overall great experience and we'll be back for sure.

    Came here for the AUCE brunch on Sunday morning (4/19) we were seated quickly, and had a great seat on the patio overlooking the strip. Our servers Brian and Reese were great from the start, offering to take some photos of us. We started off with the bottomless mimosas and the cheesy garlic bread which was amazing!! I'm sure they try to fill you up on bread so you might eat less of other things but it was delish. Some other favorites were the oysters, tuna arancini, spicy pasta, chicken and waffles, and the tiramisu French toast. Overall a really great experience and great food, worth a visit!

    Amazing Garlic Bread
    Jason S.

    What a great meal! We had heard about their famous garlic bread, so we were sold. Celebrating 10 years and wife's 40th for our trip to Vegas, Caramella's did not disappoint! Started with some Red wine and THE BEST GARLIC BREAD! So cheesy, and crispy, but soft. I preferred the pesto, my wife the red sauce, but both were delicious. We also did the veal meatballs, which were good, but by the time we were done, we regretted 2 apps lol I had the Carbonara, she got the spicy penne vodka, with no spice. Ended with Tiramisu and a complimentary scoop of coffee Gelato. The tiramisu left a litte to be desired, BUT paired with the Gelato was very good. Armando, our server, was excellent. The girl working with him, missed her name, was great as well. Overall, everything was excellent. We liked it so much that we came back for drinks at the speakeasy, which was awesome! The DJ chick was Rockin! Playing some 90s/00s bangers! We would definitely come back again next time in Vegas. Check them out!

    This Dirty Caramella was so good!

    The food was all so good. The drinks have all been so delicious. Victor has been so kind and fun for our group.

    We pulled up for an early dinner at 4pm like the organized queen that I am and basically "bought out" the place with our presence. Four tables total? I love a private dining experience without the private dining bill. Instant royal treatment. After a full day of... Vegas decisions, I needed recovery, not regret. Enter hot jasmine tea, which quite literally brought me back to life. 10/10, highly recommend making one good choice after several questionable ones. My ex (don't ask, I clearly make some poor decisions) and I shared a salad with a rosemary honey mustard vinaigrette that was fresh, light, and doing emotional repair work. Then came the main event: filet mignon, lamb chops, and asparagus. Everything was great, but the lamb chops? Tender, flavorful, and easily my favorite. Honestly... better than most of my Hinge dates. But let's talk about the real highlight. Armando. The server. Not the ex. Armando made the entire experience. You ever sit across from your date and think... wow, I chose the wrong person at this table? Yeah. That was me. The personality, the service, the charm... my ex could learn a few things from Armando. 10/10 would come back. Next time I'm upgrading my reservation to "table for one... and Armando."

    Yummy garlic cheese bread.

    As a Las Vegas local, I've done Caramella's weekend brunch in Las Vegas twice in the last 4 months, and it went from being one of the best in town to a cheapened up disappointment in less than 12 weeks. Since my last visit, several items have been removed or are now an upcharge (like the chicken parmesan). It's no longer the exceptional value it once was, and it's evident the kitchen is trying to cheapen the ingredients in an effort to charge more, give less, and save money. When restaurants do that, they never survive. Considering the price point and the hype around the venue, I'm sad that I can no longer recommend Caramella's weekend brunch. The space is undeniably stylish, but that's where most of the positives end. If you go, make sure you ask in advance to secure one of the coveted tables outside that overlook the Strip. It's great in nice weather, but the interior tables are fun too. The brunch itself feels more focused on atmosphere than actual food quality. Across the board, dishes were underwhelming, poorly executed, and nowhere near worth the cost. Portions were small, flavors were flat, and several items arrived lukewarm, which is pretty unforgivable for brunch classics. For what they charge, you expect something memorable, and this was forgettable at best. Sad boxed pasta with bland sauces? Stale bread topped with plain avocado? Oily spaghetti? I mean, come on. Do better! I was at least expecting homemade pasta at a swanky Italian joint. There are plenty of vegetarian options however, but I do wish more dishes were included. The brunch doesn't include dessert, for example. What? The saving grace is the absolutely delicious garlic cheese bread, and it is the star of the brunch. The problem is, you're paying a ton of money for bread. BREAD. Let that sink in. The last visit we opted for the all-you-can drink champagne (two hour limit). It was excellent quality and our server kept it flowing until we hit the two hour mark. Instead of just being honest and saying we hit our limit, he told us they had "run out of champagne." Dude, seriously? The four of us had only consumed 3.5 bottles, so that just felt super tacky for him to say that. Service didn't help the situation. It was slow and disorganized, with long waits between ordering, drinks, and getting our food. Staff seemed overwhelmed or uninterested, and simple requests took far too long to be addressed. The whole experience dragged on in a way that made it hard to enjoy even the parts that were supposed to be fun. Overall, Caramella weekend brunch feels like a place designed for photos but not for actually eating or getting a decent value. With so many better brunch options in Las Vegas that deliver both atmosphere and quality, this one is easy to skip. Save your time, your money, and your appetite for somewhere that lives up to its price tag.

    Lobster Alfredo
    Eliza O.

    Beautiful restaurant with absolutely delicious food and impeccable service! We were fortunate enough to be treated here by the GM and several others as my husband was one of the winners in a tournament. Everything was superb - garlic toast, lobster Alfredo, spaghetti bolognese - and the desserts were excellent. The cheesecake was HUGE - almost as long as a ruler with plenty of fresh berries on top. The servers were top notch, and they were like that the entire night, even when the GMs had to go. We were able to stay and just enjoy. It's located at Planet Hollywood on the second floor (mezzanine?) and is a great place for a special night, whether a cozy evening for two or a group of friends. There's even a speakeasy off to the side! I'm so glad I know about this place now and will return for everything, especially the food and the wonderful restaurant staff.

    We were looking for a more quiet place for dinner and noticed this from the Planet Hollywood Casino. On a Sunday night at 7 we were seated quickly and a server took our drink order. My glass of Pinot was a decent pour. The menu has a nice variety of choices and I settled on the cavatelli bolognese. My husband ordered the stuffed chicken parmigiana and learned that it came with no sides. If he wanted a side of pasta, he had to order a pasta entree at $39. WHAT? I told him he could have some of my cavatelli. While waiting for our meal we asked the server if there was bread. No, but we could order the cheesy garlic bread for $25. Oh my goodness, I am flabbergasted at these crazy prices. Our meals arrived timely and mine was nice and hot. The meal was very good, but also very salty. Service was pretty much non-existent even though it was a slow night.

    Spaghetti carbonara- yesss! So good
    Alma S.

    Excellent option for a special occasion brunch. Pricey but great ambience, service, and quality of food. Do the brunch with reservations ahead of time.

    Oysters on the Half Shell, Caprese Avocado Toast , pastry , Frittata Al Forno , Bone Marrow Surf & Turf , omelette
    Freshta S.

    You will get a bang for your buck HERE!!!! $55 Per person all you can eat brunch!! They encourage you to order the whole menu even if you just want to try something! Everything is made fresh to order!! We got the oysters 2 we added caviar, shrimp cocktail, Caesar salad, avocado toast, garlic cheese bread, grilled broccoli, pesto and sundried omelette, frittata al forno, tiramisu. Everything was DELICIOUS. I cannot stop thinking about this place, I am consistently looking for flights just because I cannot wait to come here again! Our waiter was incredibly nice and encouraged us to order any and everything we wanted. The food was out fast and everything was exceptionally delicious. The restaurant also has a candy shop (speakeasy) we did not make our way in there unfortunately but definitely will make a stop next time. The restaurant itself was gorgeous, the views from outside were beautiful and we would have sat out there if it wasn't over 100° maybe next time! The interior had different styles of tables and beautiful decor.

    Is this family friendly (with toddlers)?

    Do they offer free parking if you eat here?

    We do not offer free parking

    Where in planet Hollywood is Caramella located exactly and is there a better place to park than the miracle Miles parking?

    It's right above the gaming floor, near the conference center area and theatre. I utilized the hotel valet and took the escalators up to the correct floor.

They specialize in fresh, handmade pastas and house-made sauces, including unique varieties you won't find in stores. We picked up Campanelle, Honey Squash Agnolotti, and Scarpinnocc (cheese-filled) -- all outstanding. Ailey suggested perfect sauce pairings and even labeled the bags with heating instructions, which was such a thoughtful touch. Beyond pasta, they also offer artisanal olive oils, balsamic and specialty vinegars, wonderful cheese selections, and a curated wine lineup -- making it easy to build a gourmet meal in one stop. The pasta selection is impressive, from squid ink spaghetti and chestnut tortellini to spinach pasta and rich cheese ravioli. They also offer pasta-making classes, which I'm already planning to sign up for. Small, quaint, and full of heart, A&M Pasta Lab delivers big on quality and hospitality. You can truly feel the love behind the craft. A hidden Lake Las Vegas gem that's absolutely Elite-worthy.
