Italian dining with Bellinis, carpaccio, and vanilla meringue cake

























"The prix fixe daily menu at this Italian restaurant is a modest $29. Start with a choice of appetizer like the fennel soup, a main course of either Cipriani tagliardi with veal ragú, chicken spezzatino “alla pizzaiola” with rice pilaf, or the pan-seared filet of branzino with broccoli rabe. Plus, it comes with dessert. An a la carte menu is also available." - Janna Karel

"Stepping into Cipriani Las Vegas feels like stepping onto a beautiful yacht. A little nautical and a lot jetsetter-y, with glossy walnut and chrome and terrazzo flooring, the space resembles other Michele Bonan–designed Cipriani restaurants in Miami, Ibiza, and Mexico City. But its own color palette—royal blue and orange—are exclusive to the Vegas location. The size, too, feels a bit ship-like, with more than 7,000 square feet over two levels. The main dining room is around 3,000 square feet, and a private dining room seats up to 50. It's all the Cipriani classics here, and don't expect shortcuts: Other restaurants might import their mozzarella, but Cipriani produces its own in Italy and flies it in." - Andrea Bennett


"I’ve eaten at restaurants a handful of times now. One specific time was at Cipriani at the Wynn in Las Vegas to celebrate my PGA Championship win." - Madeleine Davies

"I read that the Cipriani restaurant group will run the new market and also open a standalone, full-service restaurant there; its restaurants serve Italian fare ranging from pastas to deli items like prosciutto sandwiches. The brand recently came under scrutiny after several women alleged they were sexually assaulted by Harvey Weinstein at different Cipriani restaurants around the city—one woman called the restaurants Weinstein’s “hunting ground”—and owner Giuseppe Cipriani has been questioned over his close relationship with the alleged predator. The group was also caught in a 2007 tax evasion scandal, when its owners were forced to pay $10 million in restitution to avoid jail time." - Carla Vianna
