"There’s no rule that says you must forsake your penchant for good Italian food on Christmas. Instead, head to Buddy V’s on Christmas Day, where $75 per person will buy you a three-course menu that includes pear and gorgonzola salad, slow-braised veal osso bucco served with crispy gnocchi, and an almond cake with raspberry mousse gelee from the Cake Boss himself." - Emmy Kasten
"Race night here means an $200 watch party with an open bar, cold and hot appetizers like lobster BLT, shrimp cocktail, meatballs, and porchetta sliders, plus a carving station featuring herb-crusted filet mignon; festivities kick off at 8 p.m. on Saturday, November 22." - Ryan Slattery
"It’s natural to crave Italian food when you’re fresh off a gondola ride, even if the river is inside a mall. Buddy V’s at The Grand Canal Shoppes is the obvious choice, even if it’s more Hoboken than Bologna. This more casual spot has large windows that face the Strip, so you can watch vacationers and performers go by as you dig into huge portions of the Cake Boss star’s Jersey-Italian recipes—think chicken parm and veal Milanese. The huge beef-veal-and-pork meatballs, smothered in marinara, are big enough to share with four people, and the lasagna loaded with Italian sausage and ground beef is worth coming back for. Even if you’re full, pop over to Carlo’s Bakeshop across the hall for some crispy cannoli or cream-filled sfogliatelle to-go for your post-pasta sugar fix." - emmy kasten, brant cox, andrew ryce

"Buddy Valastro’s Buddy V’s Ristorante at the Palazzo has a view of the Strip facing out toward Treasure Island to pair with its Italian dishes. Take it in on Sunday mornings at a brunch buffet of grilled peppercorn-crusted steak, chicken parm, and breakfast pizza. Or dine after dark with bucatini carbonara and veal marsala." - Janna Karel
