Giada was absolutely heavenly. I went a few weeks back on a Saturday night. We had a reservation (made several months in advance by my friend, I believe). Normally, with a super early reservation, comes a lot of expectation which can't be matched. Not so the case here. Read on, friends....\n\nThe decor here is very modern, comfortable and chic, all without being pretentious. The view is outstanding and we were lucky to have what felt like the best table in the house. We were sat in a half moon table which had us all looking out over the strip - incredible views of the bellagio fountains and the \"eiffel tower\". We were treated like royalty by our server, who was exactly the right level of friendly vs giving us enough space to enjoy our meal. \n\nI am English, so I'd never heard of this Giada lady who is some kind of TV/social media celeb, right? I still don't know, and I still don't really care. But what I do know is her food is to die for. And it's worth every penny. We went for a mix of antipasti, kind of tapas style. Of particular note - I loved: lobster arancini, the clams, the truffle pecorini cheese, the dates/bacon thing (forgot the name) and then the gorgonzola salad. We had other things to sample, but those were the ones that really stood out for me (although they were truly all absolutely delicious). \n\nThis is hands down some of the best food I've eaten in the USA. Maybe in the world. As you can tell from this madwoman review, I really loved it. Ok, enough crazy. Review over. You should go, if you're headed to Vegas and looking for a special or celebratory meal. When you make your reservation, be sure to ask for a table with a view.
