A Hidden Gem -- Incredible Italian with Heart…read more Il Chianti is amazing! We absolutely love Chef Rudy and everything about this restaurant. The food is consistently fantastic, and it's clear that there's so much care and heart behind every dish. We've tried several things on the menu -- from the creamy Alfredo pasta to the flavorful New York steak -- and it's all been delicious. But let me tell you... their garlic bread is what dreams are made of. It comes out warm and crusty with garlic, olive oil, parmesan, and spices -- and I honestly think about it all the time. It's that good. Il Chianti is definitely on the finer dining side, so prices reflect the quality -- but it's 100% worth it. We've celebrated birthdays here, and even had our wedding luncheon hosted at the restaurant, and they were amazing to work with: so accommodating, so kind, and just a joy to plan with. This is a restaurant we love and want to see succeed. Highly, highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable Italian meal in a beautiful, welcoming space.

If you're looking to support a small business in Henderson, go support Il Chianti. Our server,…read moreRoger, was so personable and funny. The ambiance in here is moody and not over the top but very nice. Excellent wine selection and delicious food. Chef Rudy also comes by for table touches which I thought was quite awesome. I had the Linguini Alle Vongole with white sauce and it was delicious. Pasta was perfectly al dente and the fresh clams was exactly as I expected. I personally dislike when restaurants just put the meat of the clam in the pasta without the shell. Can't wait to come back and try another dish!

My first visit here, I was quite impressed by the food and the service. I craved the Prime New York…read moreTagliata for months and months. I finally visited for the second time yesterday. I just love the casual but classy vibe here. You better believe I ordered my steak! Alas, a snafu. I ordered medium rare, and received a steak completely well done. Like dry dry. However, the server continuously checked on us so it gave me every opportunity to let him know that the steak wasn't to my liking. He immediately noticed it when he sensed hesitation in my voice after he asked if things were going well. He apologized and immediately got to work into replacing it, even offering for us to keep snacking on the one we received while waiting for the new dish. (I couldn't do it though, it was beef jerky, lol) As soon as I received the replacement, wow - this is the steak I remembered from my first visit. Just delicious, beautifully medium rare. The manager (?) or someone, came to our table again, very apologetic and asked how the new dish was. She didn't make us feel guilty, and assumed all fault asap. Made me feel heard. The other dish we ordered, Spicy Rigatoni Vodka, was perfectly cooked - my son scarfed it down within minutes. The caesar salad we split between the two of us, perfect starter and good portion. Perfectly tossed in a generous amount of dressing. Come dessert time, we ordered - I can't remember the name, was recommended by our server, but my son again - completely demolished it within a minute! We were also informed that our dessert was comped for the mistake that was made with the steak dish. What could have been a terrible dinner, turned out to be one of the best dinners we've had this year. Their service, along with the delicious food will keep me wanting more North Italia. Such a memorable meal.

This was my third time visiting North Italia, and I would come again 3 more times! The vibe in here…read moreat night is amazing. It is very low light which I personally like. Make it more intimate if you are going on a date. I had the Bolognese and my fiancé had the Chicken Pesto. I would give the Bolognese a 9/10 and the Pesto a 10/10. Bolognese is good if you want something that has a red sauce taste to it. We also had the Yellowtail Crudo for our appetizer which was probably the best thing we had all night! I was shocked at how good this was. Portion size was small, so if you can afford it I would get two of these dishes. We had the pistachio ice cream for dessert which was phenomenal as well. Some ice cream flavors are not listed on the dessert menu, so be sure to ask them what they have!

We have been here 3 times now. Each time has been a 5 star experience…read more Everyone enjoyed the food. The squid ink fruition di mare, lobster and crab ravioli special, gnocchi bolognese and paresan risotto were hits. The berry pana cotta was tender and punchy with flavor. It's a cozy place without feeling crowded. Our waiter was friendly and professional

Azzurra is one of those rare places that just gets it right…read more Quaint, vibrant, and full of life--the atmosphere feels like a little slice of Italy in Henderson. The service is outstanding... personal, attentive, and genuinely warm. And the food? Fresh pasta. Fresh ingredients. Fresh, fresh, fresh. You can taste the difference in every bite. One note: it can get a bit lively (and a little loud), which honestly adds to the energy--but something to keep in mind if you have hearing concerns. There is also beautiful outside seating. You have to check this place out. Bottom line: incredible food, great people, and an experience worth coming back for.

So I came here from word of mouth that this place was a really great Italian restaurant. I was kind…read moreof worried because it was also a gaming bar like how could the food differentiate from the other gaming bars. Anyways I went and I died deep in my soul .......... The artichoke was exquisitely delicious like no other I have ever had. The soup alone was way better than the clams soup. If you like salty the clams soup would be better for you, but I guarantee you that if you have a great palette you would know the artichoke is so delicious. Moving forward I was met with one staff I guess he controlled the bar because the other side was closed. He was a very attentive staff and I believe his name was Jake. He just know the best things to get and I will post the pictures below. Everything was so perfect!!!!! This is a hidden gem if you ever come here I'm pretty sure your family would be amazed of the quality of the food. There are plenty of seats and also a private party area for birthdays or celebrations.

Always a wonderful experience at Roma Kitchen! Michelle was the best as was all the staff! We enjoy…read morethe food and experience every time we come! Thank you for your hospitality.. Jeff an

Was more than pleasantly surprised with this very cozy and quaint Italian restaurant in the Pass…read moreCasino in the Water Street District ( downtown Henderson). Well the casino itself is extremely smoky and full of very, very, very old people (watch out for the scooters, walkers and oxygen tanks), the restaurant itself was a very pleasant "casual Italian atmosphere". Real linen tablecloth. Very comfortable and intimate booths and excellent lighting in ambience for an Italian restaurant. The food was nothing short of excellent. You got absolute heaps of it and it was very authentic Italian. In fact, the meatballs on my spaghetti and meatballs with some of the best meatballs I've had in Vegas. My wife enjoyed her Chicken Angelo very much. Perhaps one of the best highlights of the night was the service. We had "Brandon" as our server and he was extremely personable, funny and engaging. He actually seemed to like his job and enjoy dealing with us. Highest marks to him. He really improved the night. Also, is one of the few authentic Italian restaurants that we found to be extremely affordable. We shared a full Caesar salad salad we had a massive entrée and even had cannolis for dessert (with a glass of wine) and the price tag was less than $65. Where do you get that type of value? Absolutely a hidden gem and will definitely be on our "go to list".

Water Street's best kept secret!…read more Inside the Pass casino sits an unassuming Italian restaurant. You walk up 3-4 stone steps to the beautiful doors and inside to a beautiful room filled with comfortable booths and lined draped tables, beautiful lighting and they even had a bar inside. They do to go orders as I heard several of those being taken as we waited for our bread which arrived quickly and included oil and vinegar. Delicious. Brandon was the waiter. He was friendly and attentive. Top notch! I ordered Minestrone soup and Bruschetta. My brother ordered a Caesar Salad. All three dishes were AMAZING. Best soup I have had anywhere and that Bruschetta was melt in your mouth amazing, the flavors lingered long after I had finished the last bite. Brother ordered Chicken Parm and I got salmon w/asparagus and potatoes as I am allergic to Mushrooms and could not do the normal risotto that it comes with. He said next time to remind him and he will ask for extra sauce and maybe another piece of chicken--He liked it though. The salmon was Juicy and delicious, the potatoes were soft. YUM. The Bruschetta pic did not come out sadly but it was amazing and I am sure the pic would not do it justice anyways. No desserts... I mean they had them but only 3 to choose from so I opted to skip it and get dessert tomorrow at the next restaurant I am heading to--stay tuned... 100% have added this to the return list--The die can bring it up but it won't have to. I also left the die on the table and Brandon saved me from leaving with out it. The dice man needs his dice. See you soon! The dice man

I always crave NYC style pizza, with the thin and slightly crispy -- yet foldable -- crust. These guys hit every note. If you've ever had a slice from NYC, you may recognize the familiar paper plates. Cannoli are made fresh and worth every cent.

We are on vacation and came across this place on the maps and decided we needed to try them out…read more Was the best pizza we have ever had. Ordered the meatball sub pizza, margarita pizza, Carmine's special pizza and Hawaiian pizza (no pizza sauce instead added Alfredo). Will definitely be back while we are here. Owner was super nice and other employees were also amazing! Definitely recommend 100%

Carmine's is a 5+++ star gem!…read more I went to lunch here just a few days ago for the first time and this is a MUST go if you haven't been. Bright, beautiful nostalgic decor with a great atmosphere. In a world where customer service seems to be a thing of the past Carmines excels. They understand how important their customers are and it showed. From the second my husband and I walked in it was all smiles, hellos and welcomes ( from everyone ) We ordered pepperoni pizza, Carmines chopped salad, side of fries w/ ranch and raspberry ice tea. The pizza is delicious and the real deal. Tasting it took me back to childhood when I remember getting really GOOD pizza hanging out at the shore. The fries are awesome, hot, crispy on the outside soft potato inside and the ranch is definitely homemade and if you're a foodie like me you know great ranch when you taste it. The chopped salad was the BEST salad I've had in a long time - fresh, crisp veggies, beautifully balanced balsamic dressing, full of flavor and so perfect for these hot summer days. The raspberry iced tea washed it all down perfectly. I was too full for a dessert but, out of nowhere the manager (Denise) walked over and gave us a free cannoli - best cannoli I've ever had! The prices are right and the lunch specials are a steal. On the way out I stopped at the front desk and asked to speak to who I thought was the manager ( turns out he was the owner (Frank) I let him know how great I felt this place was and regardless of how busy the place was he stopped and took the time to chat with me and even gave me a card for a free large cheese pizza so I can come back and bring my girls in to try the food (as I am raising 2 baby foodies). When I realized Frank was the owner it all made sense as to why this restaurant is so successful. Frank was one of the people who greeted us, he was taking orders, filling orders, taking out food to tables, cleaning tables and doing everything that his employees do. He leads by example and clearly holds high standards for himself and his staff was an absolute reflection of this kind of leadership. Bravo! to you and your staff Frank!!! This place is DYNAMITE!!! My new favorite place in Henderson and will be back again for the great food and experience. Sincerely, Singing; Sha na na na naa .. na na na naa na na na na na naa .. Sha na na naa! Lol!
