text: This was our first time trying this place and it certainly won't be the last!  We don't reside in Southern Highlands, but in SW Vegas, but I would certainly drive across town for a meal here.  The restaurant is small and casual, but the food was honestly some of the best we've had anywhere, especially in Vegas where Italian isn't on par with what my fiance and I grew up eating back home.  Every part of the meal was outstanding.  I had one of the daily specials, gnocchi with marinara, mozzarella, and basil, and he had the fettuccine alfredo with chicken.  Both meals came with garlic bread, which was also divine. I ordered a dinner salad as well and it was perfect.  The whole meal with a bottle of wine was $52 before tip.  I would pay double for the quality of the meal.  If you are looking for a sit-down restaurant, this isn't really it, but if you want quality recipes for a reasonable price, you've found what you're looking for!
