The Best New Restaurants In Las Vegas - Las Vegas - The Infatuation

"The first Vegas location of this Venice Beach staple opened in The Venetian’s Restaurant Row, and it’s just as good as the original—despite what protective Californians might want you to believe. This place hits you over the head with fresh produce, and a menu that promises everything local, seasonal, and organic “whenever possible.” Sure, that concept isn’t as revolutionary as it was in 2008, but grilled oyster mushrooms brushed with tarragon butter, and the famous sourdough pizzas, are timeless (and the server will happily guide you through the lengthy menu if it’s your first time). The low-lit, rustic room makes for a great date night, but to avoid the crowds—and the higher noise levels—go for brunch or lunch and ask for a table by the windows so you can watch the conventioneers and tourists pass by." - emmy kasten

Las Vegas’s Most Anticipated Restaurant Openings, Summer 2024 | Eater Vegas

"As part of the Venetian’s major renovation, I note that Venice Beach favorite Gjelina is set to bring its California-cool, vegetable-forward approach to Restaurant Row later in 2024, known for wood-fired California-Neapolitan pizzas, pastas like a saffron spaghetti with bottarga and confit tomato, and salads such as escarole with smoked almonds, parmesan, and lemon vinaigrette, along with earth-toned, beachy decor." - Janna Karel

Wanted a great meal while watching the end of a 14 inning Mariners playoff game. We were not disappointed! The front desk greeters and servers were so wonderful to quickly setup a just vacated table so we could see the game. The food was delicious and very flavorful. We had the Pomador with Burrata pizza, Green Market Lettuce with Tarragon, Parsley, Dill, Meyer Lemon Vinaigrette salad and Japanese Sweet Potato, Jalapeno Yogurt and Scallion. Everything was so yummy! Our server Christian was so awesome, kind, and attentive. Very knowledgeable on menu questions and such a nice guy! The atmosphere was casual and delightful.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch here and had excellent service at the bar from Richard. JIm G. and I enjoyed a cocktail first. For him, the Italian Paloma ($18) and for me the Mezcal Negroni ($19). They had a reasonably priced bottle of Aglianico ($76) that we started to enjoy while waiting for our pizza. THe Cured Chorizo Pizza ($28) was amazingly good! Cooked perfectly, the mixing of the mozzarella, flavorful sauce with Calabrian chili, red onion, and the chorizo was so very satisfying and delicious! It'll be hard to convince me to order anything else when we return! It was nice to watch some Sunday football and plug our phones in, too.

The good news: their ribeye was one of the best I've had in recent memory. The rest of our food was also pretty good. The bad news: disorganized, lack of staff training, lack of finesse. Slip-up #1: we ordered the cacio e pepe to share as a first course, then the ribeye with the mushrooms as a side as a second course. They brought everything at the same time. We sent back the steak and mushrooms because we didn't want them to get cold at the table. Slip-up #2: the cacio e pepe didn't have either the "cacio" (cheese) or the "pepe" (pepper)! Clearly it was sent out without it being reviewed by the expediter because it didn't have either the grated cheese nor the cracker pepper on top. We told our server, and he understood. A female employee then showed up at our table to find out what was going on -- we assumed she was a manager but she never introduced herself, but she was also at the host stand when we arrived so she could've been a host (who knows?) -- and after we explained, she made a comment about how weird that was since most people complain that there is usually too much pepper, and she left. Finally the pasta came out correctly, then the second course soon after. Slip-up #3: we were still enjoying our food, with portions still on the platters and on our plates, when someone came around, asked if we were done, and started to reach for the dishes before we could even answer! It seemed like noone was trained properly -- at least not for working at a decent place like this. Our server was the only person who seemed like he knew what he was doing and We chose this restaurant thinking it would be a nice experience to try someplace new, but it turned out to be disappointing. It would've been less painful had the prices been more reasonable, but that wasn't the case, either.

Ambiance: I liked the ambiance here. The inside is modern and dim. It's a newer restaurant so I expected this type of environment & style. Service: service was really good! our server was really nice & gave us recommendation since we haven't been. he was also accommodating to our one off requests. Food: I thought the cocktails were okay here - nothing special but still good. We ordered a few things off the menu but the ones I wanted to highlight was the japanese potato (yam) with a jalepeno sauce. It was unique and absolutely delicious! I could eat 5 plates of that. I also really enjoyed the beet salad & sea bass! The hamachi was also really tasty & slightly different from other restaurants. Their pasta was good but nothing super exciting - I would try other pastas next time. One item I didn't enjoy at all was their beef tartare. It was pretty tart for my liking - definitely can be skipped if you're contemplating it. Overall, enjoyed this restaurant & would come back!

This restaurant is located inside the Venetian in restaurant row. We came here on a Saturday at 8:30 for breakfast. We were seated right away by the window. Our server came right away and took our drink order. We ordered the pancakes, the polenta, and the cheese omelette. All were very fresh and tasty. The service was attentive and professional. Our coffee and water were never empty and the establishment was very clean.

I have been to the original Gjelina in Venice once, so was eager to try this new Vegas location and even booked a stay at The Palazzo for convenience. It's located on Restaurant Row; my goodness, how the restaurants on the Row have changed over the years! I think Delmonico's is the oldest remaining eatery here. Note some of these restaurants have their own restrooms, others use the ones in the corridor going to the convention center. Gjelina is a pretty large space, I would say about 5 times larger than the Venice spot. It has 2 private rooms, a bar and a semi-open kitchen. Gjelina has always been about farm-to-table produce-forward dishes; apparently the seasonal ingredients sourced for Venice are also sourced for Vegas. Although Gjelina offers some interesting plates of protein, I ended up going with more veggie-forward dishes. I love corn, and there were 2 corn dishes available. The braised shaved corn was an ode to creamed corn, made creamy with mascarpone cheese plus pecorino and parmesan, with an acidic pinch of lime. The other corn dish was a pasta--ricotta gnocchi with creamed corn sauce and pecorino. Rich and delish. I also got a beet salad with frisee, sourdough panzanella, burrata, toasted seeds and Fuji apple. Also delish. The housemade lemonade was fine. I was also offered a complimentary cocktail because the bartender happened to be training someone and trying new things. My server, who replaced my original server that clocked out, was very enthusiastic and attentive. The name Chaz is on my check, I'm not sure if that's him. He made sure to note that 20% gratuity is already added. There was no "charge for ice" that some prior reviews mentioned. Overall a fine meal, a nice alternative to steakhouse fare or the many Italian menus that dominate this "Italian" resort.

With so many other great Italian options available in Las Vegas, I would not go back to Gjelina. The sauces being the main missed opportunity. Pastas, including a gnocchi, were ok and tasted homemade, but the sauces were bland and gloopy. The Cacio e Pepe had no pepper and was too thick like a bad Alfredo. Overall a disappointing dining experience. No dish was worth taking a photo.

This is a newer addition to the Venetian restaurants. They are between Delmonico and Yardbird along restaurant row. The ambiance is romantic with subdued lighting with a task light and candles on each table. Sustainably is key with a farm to table ethos. We came on a quiet Monday night about an hour before closing and we were seated immediately (ten minutes before our reservation). Our server Christian was very helpful and made sure we had water to drink and answered all our questions about the menu. We started with a small Cesar Salad that was larger enough for us to share with large fresh romaine lettuce leaves. For our entrees we had the Lamb Chops, the Pork Chops and the Japanese Sweet Potatoes: All the food was excellent. The lamb and pork was flavorful and the sweet potatoes were amazing. Definitely a five star restaurant that we I'll be returning to on our next Vegas trip.

We had a quick lunch stop here. The pizza selection is interesting. I picked a chorizo pizza, my wife an anchovy pizza. We liked the thin crust and toppings a lot. Unfortunately, the pizzas were already not hot when they arrived and rather cold toward the end of the meal. That was disappointing. The service was very friendly and quick. We had a little problem (not the cold pizza) which is not worth mentioning. The waitress handled the situation very professionally! The perfect reaction to make customers feel comfortable. The ambiance is nice and open, not too loud.

Gjelina. It had been 11 years since I last ate at the Abbot Kinney location in Venice Beach. I remember how I really engjoyed the meal. Alas, a lot of time has passed and while I moved on to try many different and fantastic restaurants, Gjelina was stuck in the past. Some things should stay buried in the past, like a fond memory. Unfortunately, Gjelina decided to open up in my new back yard. The wife and I made a reservation and headed to The Venetian. Speaking of The Venetian, I remember when parking was free. It still is free for locals but only for 3 hours and only if there are no special events. Meh. Strike One: From the get go I was annoyed. I explained to the hostess with the tablet that we had a reservation. She said okay and then we were seated at a communal table. Sorry, but that is some bs and so I explained that no, I wanted a table. They moved us to a table but her body language was anything but friendly. Strike Two: Gjelina adds an automatic 20% gratuity. This includes parties of one or two. This could explain why the service was poor. They already get 20% guaranteed. My server was not cordial, did not explain any specials, and was gjust mediocre. Strike Three: The food was not impressive. You can write all the cookbooks you want. The food gjust doesn't get the gjob done. We ordered the pork chop and all I could think of was the pork chop at Farmstead in St Helena. The orecchiette was a brown mess with a glob of whipped ricotta that looked more like a TV dinner. Should've gjust gone to Esther's Kitchen in the Art's District. Also, they charge for the bread which isn't that great either. Strike out. Gjelina, no wonder you are rated 3.5 stars for your Venice location. Sorry but you only get two for the Venetian location. What an utter disappointment.

My friends and I decided to dine here and it did not disappoint. Reservations are highly recommend. Thank you David for arranging the reservation for us. Our server, Oliver, was very nice and attentive. Our drinks were perfectly made and I was very pleased with my Okd Fashioned. Food: Pickled Vegetables Hamachi with Black Garlic, Sesame, Lemon Truffle Pizza Orcchiette Beef Cheek Bolognese Cacio e Pepe Wow!!! What a wonderful and delicious dinner. The pickled vegetables was an added touch to cleanse our palate. The Hamachi was so tasty. Actually, all the dishes were yummy. If anything which I usually enjoy, the cacio e pepe was my least favorite. Still good. Overall, a memorable night spent with lovely friends, strong drinks and delicious and flavorful dishes.

We ate here and it was fantastic! With an appetizer, two salads, and an entree. Their menu changes all the time as everything is locally sourced. It was so delicious and so creative! When I come back I'm definitely going here.

Absolutely delicious food! We arrived too early in Vegas and our room at the Venetian was not ready, so we walked through their food court. Gjelina had seats and I feel lucky they did. We were in the mood for brunch, so I ordered the salmon toast and my friend ordered the mushroom omelette. They were both delicious! The salmon for the salmon toast melted in my mouth it was so amazing! The bread was perfectly toasted. Portions were great. Mimosas were fantastic. Our server was a delight (I am so sorry I forgot her name), have us awesome recommendations and seemed very happy at work. Highly recommend it if you find yourself in Vegas

I came with a bachelorette party as a last minute pivot since Lavo screwed up our reservation, and I'm glad we pivoted! The food was delicious and service was really great. I had the duck hash, crispy egg with prosciutto, and the escarole salad. All the other girls really loved their items as well.

Great restaurant, the food is very good. Salads are BIG and fluffy (like the Radicchio salad), especially like the Ricotta Gnocchi entree. Great oysters. The Seabass MAY be a bit fishy, have had it twice now. Service is generally fast but one time when seated at the bar on a Friday early evening it took an hour and a half to get my entrees after relatively fast service on the appetizer and salad. I complained directly to the manager who did not apologize and said he would "look into it" - after another half hour finally my entrees were served (Ricotta Gnocchi and Seabass). After that experience I was not going to return ever, but I did - and the next time, at lunch, the service was fine. They will not do take out, but if you sit down, order and package yourself, that functions the same.

We made a reservation here because we saw that the restaurant served farm-to-table meals. We checked in and were seated promptly near the large windows, which was great for observing and people watching. We ordered the white pizza with sauce on the side, the sea bass, and the root vegetables with mole sauce. I think our most favorite thing was the pizza, which had delicious cheese and also the sauce on the side was great. Our least favorite thing was the vegetables in mole sauce because the mole tasted more like a spicy curry that was too overpowering and should be described that way on the menu since I think of mole as being more subtle. The vegetables also could have been cooked a little longer. My partner enjoyed the sea bass but he thought that the plate was a little on the smaller end with only as small salad as the carbs. I think there was a mixup with our servers since we were told that we would get one server but then Christian ended up taking over but he was great at getting us in and out and helping us with our orders. It was just a little confusing though since we didn't know who to flag down for the check. But the staff is super helpful and checked in on us, grabbing our plates and making sure we were okay. I like that the automatic 20% gratuity is split among all staff because it is true they all contribute. Happy that these sorts of restaurants serving fresh food exist.

This is exactly what Vegas needs more of - farm-to-table, intentional dining. If you are a fan of large, heavy, bulky meals then this place is not for you. As an LA native, I am ashamed I haven't been to their Venice location! The restaurant itself is beautifully designed, contemporary but chic. The dining tables near the windows give it an indoor/outdoor vibe with plenty of people watching. Service was great although we went around rush hour so it took some time between orders to catch our server. The menu is designed to be family-style. We ordered the kampachi, a beet burrata salad, Brussels sprouts, and pork chops. I have to preface this by saying I do not eat pork chops but this was so decadent and hearty. The flavors of the greens, garlic, and sweet potato went so well with the perfectly cooked meat. 10/10 dining experience for me. I can't wait to be back!

Gjelina, coming from the heart of Venice bringing clean produce forward meals to Las Vegas. Gjelina has a no modification policy to make sure you get the true experience of the dish & I can appreciate that and love the integrity behind that. The cocktails were amazing and didn't leave a headache, pricing is nice for the Las Vegas strip!

Ever since Gjelina's Venice flagship, I've been obsessed, and the new Las Vegas outpost channels those laid‑back L.A. vibes perfectly. The dining room is low‑lit and rustic but still lively; the produce‑driven menu is just as imaginative as the original. We started with the Little Gem Caesar with a creamy preserved‑lemon vinaigrette, then moved on to a gorgeously pan‑seared salmon with a crisp exterior and buttery interior and charred brussels sprouts glazed in miso. The mushroom pizza with taleggio and mozzarella (and lots of wild mushrooms) was easily one of the best pizzas I've had in Vegas. We finished with the sticky toffee pudding -- warm and gooey with house‑made ice cream. Our server Juliette was professional and incredibly warm, pacing the meal like a pro and making our anniversary feel special. It's rare for a spin‑off to live up to the original, but Gjelina Las Vegas does exactly that. Perfect for date night or a leisurely lunch with friends.

If you're looking for simple crowd friendly food with a great environment this is a good place to come to with friends or a work gathering. Ordered the roasted brussel sprouts with walnuts & a chili lime dressing to start with. The brussel sprouts were good had a tangy bite to it with a nice crunch from the walnuts. The sunchokes came late after the entrees but once they finally got there they were interesting. Deep fried with a herb green goddess dressing. Never had a sunchoke before but they had the texture of a potato cauliflower hybrid Next we had the lamb burger, the Gruyère pizza with caramelized onions, white cheese and arugula topping and the gnocchi with mushrooms (off menu special) 2 of the 3 were good, the side vegetables with the burger were pickled peppers with a spicy kick that balanced nicely with the lamb burger but I wish I got the fries instead. The gnocchi was the worst of the three bland boring and under seasoned the portion was tiny. All in all I would go back with friends for pizza with cocktails . Everything else was ok, with seemingly healthy farm to table ingredients I didn't feel guilty eating the dishes, but everything seemed to lack the wow factor.

Stopped in for lunch and it was fine overall -- not bad, but not memorable either. The burrata salad was the standout -- super fresh and flavorful. The meatballs were just okay, and the fries were surprisingly bland, easily the least seasoned I've ever had. Service was fine, and the space is nice, but overall it didn't quite live up to the hype.

Extremely fresh ingredients. The food was excellent however it was nothing extra extraordinary. The service was also excellent. We got the sautéed mushrooms, which were a bit salty, the creamed corn, which was average, although it was fresh and an amazing pizza with Barata cheese and prosciutto .

Gjelina is a great addition to Venetian. It's more like a farm to table concept with many vegetable dishes. Their vegetable dishes really shine. There are too many interesting choices to choose from and the dishes are more like family style size, not tapas. The menu online isn't exactly what's on the printed menu so be aware. The pastas on the other hand were just ok. The ricotta gnocchi with sunchokes is great if you love rich, creamy dish but we found the gnocchi to be heavy with the creamy béchamel sauce and all that ricotta. The saffron spaghetti with bottarga was a miss. The pasta was perfectly al dente but all I could taste was the superfluous amount of acidic oven dried tomato sauce. You couldn't even see the shavings of bottarga nor taste it. The lamb chops were tender and well cooked but wish it came with at least some side dish other than a half grilled lemon. Service was excellent and our server Caleb made sure we left happy. The spaghetti didn't come out too hot so I asked if it could be microwaved for a minute or so but he insisted that another one be made. Definitely an experienced server. Empty plates were quickly cleared and our cups always refilled with water. I would definitely try again but next time I would like to stick with more vegetable dishes and try their pizza as they have some interesting options.

The food was not good. Everything is subpar and lacking. The best the we had was the side order of mushrooms . The service was also lacking. Wouldn't go back even for a second chance as there are so many other

I was walking at the Venetian last week and stumbled on this restaurant. I was able to speak with the manager, David Reynolds, and he gave me a tour of this restaurant. I was loving the ambience and that they have 2 private rooms. Definitely aesthetically pleasing and told him I would be back. I'm back with a few of my girlfriends and Gjelina did not disappoint at all. Although he was not working, David was kind enough to make sure we felt welcome. We were offered our first drink on the house. Oliver was a great waiter. He took care of us and gave us lots of attention during the dinner. We ordered 5 dishes to share and each were fantastic. All of us raved on the service and the food all night long. Pricing was not bad at all. Truffle Mushroom pizza is a must though. We ended the dinner with a comped dessert as well. We were definitely spoiled last night. And I will definitely come back and will recommended this restaurant.

We usually love all the restaurants at the Restaurant Row in the Venetian. The menu looked great and we were excited to try it. Hugh disappointed! We should have know better by the lack of patrons. After we were seated and ready to order, we were informed they had a waterline issue earlier and hadn't been signed off to serve water. No coffee, tea, soft drinks, water. Alcohol and juices were offered and bottled water. You would think they would offer bottle water for free. In hindsight we should have gotten up and walked out ( our bad). We ordered the Blueberry lemon buckwheat pancakes and crispy fried eggs with prosciutto. The pancakes were drowning in blueberry compote, way too much. The eggs dish was ok. Mediocre food. Since it was so slow our serve made friends with a table near us and spent her time conversing with them. She didn't have to fill water glasses( haha ) .

The services was good Oliver took care of us and was very nice. The place was clean. The waiter would come by and refilled your water. We ordered several dishes to share. We got the hamachi, pickle veggies, mushroom truffle pizza, orecchiette pasta, cacio e Pepe, a few drinks and the bread pudding dessert. I like how everything is from farm to table. My two favorite are the mushroom pizza and the orecchiette pasta. I will be back. Thank you Oliver and Davis for a wonderful dinner.

Although Travis Lett hasn't been involved since before the pandemic Gjelina continues to do "farm-to-table" California fare in an honest way, the recent opening of Gjelina Las Vegas filling the space of a prior bar at The Venetian with seasonable Vegetables, Pizzas and Proteins from local farms. Described as "New American," a footprint easily twice the size of that in Venice sporting light woods and a central Bar, guests are seated at spotlit tables where charming servers are happy to make suggestions from a menu divided into four sections. Quite unlike the usual "Strip Restaurant," a well-priced wine and cocktail list focused on small producers complimenting plates focused on Produce, a natural Orange from Hungary proved well-suited to light starters such as organic Bok Choy grilled and seasoned as well as springy Oyster Mushrooms in Tarragon Butter. Yet another Venetian/Palazzo spot offering Pizza and Pasta, though all Gjelina's Pies come from a lengthy-fermented Sourdough starter, cured Chorizo shines as housemade Pepperoni while Orecchiette with Beef Cheek Bolognese outpaces "Chitarra" that looks not hand-cut, but extruded. Definitely a grown-up Restaurants, a Sweet Potato with Charred Scallion Yogurt sloppy but tasty, look to the thick-cut Pork Chop dressed seasonally for a rare deal and don't forget Dessert, though telling staff it was a guest's birthday saw no celebration of any form both the Sticky Toffee Pudding and Pistachio Chocolate Tart were very good.

In Sin City where it's all about glitz and excess - Gjelina is an oasis of simplicity and good food. After a whole week in Vegas, I was vibing with allll the vegetable options and that their bar program reflects their the philosophy - lots of small batch, interesting brands that aren't your usual! We stopped here for a lite lunch and our server was great with recommendations. We ended up having: *Beet, Sourdough Panzanella, Burrata, Toasted Seeds, Frisée, Fuji, Apple Cider Vinegar - this salad was so so good! super flavorful with golden beets and all the textures! *Frites, Harissa Aioli - look, I'm a Heinz girly and usually am not into ANY other catsup, but damn - Gjelina's is good! I was worried that the fries were a bit pale looking (aka under fried), but I enjoyed them! *Cappelletti Spritz - our server joked that it was like an aperol but without the Red40. I laughed BUT I mean it was really good - so good that I ordered for pick up at my local liquor store upon my return. It's less sweet than Aperol. It's kind of like Aperol and Campari had a wine-based baby. *Because I liked the Cappelleti so much, I had the bar tender make me an Americano - usually made with campari but the Cappelleti was perfect in it! All in all a great meal - you will pay Vegas prices here at Gjelina in the Venetian though!

Dinner at Gjelina at The Venetian was a whole vibe. Clean, sophisticated aesthetic? Check. Impeccable service? Double check. It felt elevated without trying too hard, like that effortlessly chic friend who just gets it. Great food, good energy, and a menu that really lets the ingredients shine. We started with the Mixed Market Greens, crisp and herbaceous with a bright Meyer lemon vinaigrette that practically screamed, "I'm fresh!" Paired with the Roasted Oyster Mushrooms, soaked in tarragon butter and kissed with lemon, it was an earthy-meets-bright combo that (as the kids say) absolutely slapped. The Beet vegetable mix was another standout: creamy burrata, sweet Fuji apples, crunchy seeds, and toasted sourdough all playing beautifully together like a flavor symphony. For mains, the Orecchiette with Beef Cheek Bolognese was hearty and comforting, while the Cacio e Pepe kept things simple and peppery with just the right bite. The Guanciale pizza isn't for the faint of palate: it's bold, quite a bit salty, and spicy thanks to the olives and chiles. Meanwhile, the Beef Tartare was fresh with just the right pop of citrus to tie it together. The wine selection? A+, with a balanced and diverse lineup that paired beautifully with everything we ordered. We finished with the Pistachio Chocolate Tart: rich, nutty, and sweet without being clingy. Fresh ingredients, killer flavors, a beautiful setting, and warm, attentive service. Already planning my next visit.

Absolutely divine. I was a solo diner and well taken care of. I'm glade I got there the time I did because I ordered the last red cabbage and duck which was absolutely divine. The ambience and atmosphere was dim and relaxing. The sorbet flavor the the month of June was apricot and pineapple which had the taste of banana Gerber's baby food, but I'm not mad at it because I think they taste pretty good.

This place is a vibe. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with an effortlessly chic ambiance--modern yet warm, with a design-forward aesthetic that makes you feel like you've stepped into a culinary sanctuary right off the streets of Venice (California or Italy, take your pick). Now let's talk food: absolutely phenomenal. Every dish we ordered was a standout. The wood-fired pizzas are next level--crispy, slightly charred crust with toppings that taste like they were handpicked from a local farm that morning. We had the mushroom pizza and the lamb sausage one, and both were mind-blowing. We also shared the roasted cauliflower and the charred broccolini--simple, yet packed with flavor in that Gjelina way that somehow elevates vegetables to main-event status. Don't skip the ricotta toast or the butterscotch pot de crème--seriously, life-changing. Service was attentive but never overbearing. Our server had great recommendations and knew the menu inside and out. Every team member we interacted with was friendly and made us feel like we were in good hands. Gjelina is officially one of my new favorite spots in Vegas. Perfect for a date night, dinner with friends, or just treating yourself to an unforgettable meal. Pro tip: make a reservation--this place fills up fast, and it's easy to see why.

Gjelina is such a great choice at any time of day or night, that we came here twice in one day. An early breakfast to beat any crowds, & then a 3pm lunch when they are on their in between (3-5pm) menu. Breakfast: Banana bread - warmed & lightly toasted, served w/a pear butter & butter butter. Perfect sweetness, great toasted texture. Duck Hash - a runny fried egg topped a generous portion of potatoes, bell pepper & duck chunks. A decent dish but blown into last place by the other things we tried. Soft scrambled eggs - w/chives, & served w/a great slice of thick fresh sourdough, this was very good Maple bacon - THE star of breakfast. 4 thick slices of maple-shiny, smokey bacon that made us eye roll with each bite bc it was that good. Lunch: Market Salad - a large, lightly lemony vinaigrette-dressed assortment of beautiful greens, with a side of crispy-skinned chicken breast/wing section added for protein. Loved this! Pomodoro pizza - add burrata? Yes please! Served w/a dish of dried herbs, parm, & red pepper piles to add as we wanted. Topped with melty burrata & a simple tomato sauce, this thin crust pizza had a nice char & a good balance of crisp & chewy textures. The 3-5pm menu has a nice selection of oysters, crudo, charcuterie, salads & pizzas. They were apologetic about the small menu, but imo these choices represent some of must trys here. So you miss the lunch AND the dinner crowd, & you get to try their great wood fired pizzas. Win-win! Gjelina is always yummy, & the service gracious & top notch. They deserve the automatic gratuity added to all the bills. Highly recommend.

Service wasn't that great, it was just mediocre but I've eaten at a lot of Vegas spots and the service is usually top notch. The server didn't really check on us and I ordered a pizza as it was but later noticed they charged me for cheese I never even asked for. Also didn't appreciate the already included gratuity that was just for a party of two. If it was for a larger party I totally would understand. There's definitely better spots to try in the palazzo/Venetian properties. The vibe was dark and moody and the restaurant itself was really pretty but I just don't think I'd come back.

Just "ok".... The food quality: B Service: C Food portion size / pricing: C- I paid $25 for a sea bass sandwich without a side. The taste was decent, but the value was low. Bartender was hustling but the bar was too big for one person to manage so ordering anything required flagging him down. My buddy's steak sandwich was way too rare and had to be sent back. All in all, I wouldn't go back as there are better choices.

Outstanding place to eat no matter what time of the day! Great location that has easy access to the Sphere or the Palazzo parking garage. The food is phenomenal with an extremely reasonable price for the top notch quality. The atmosphere is casual but with fine dining vibes. Manager Eric and Waitress Dinela provided exquisite service. Truly a spot to visit when in the area over and over again.

The food here was phenomenally good! Heard this place newly open in Vegas after other locations in LA and New York! The beet salad here was absolutely amazing, unlike anything I've ever had before! The service was also amazing. Our waiter was so attentive, and the food came so fast and he also made great recommendations. The ambiance is nice. We had lunch here on a Monday and there weren't too many people. I am for sure coming back again for the beets salad!

The cheese pizza was very salty , we had to change it to pepperoni which tastes good. Gnocchi was also salty. Pistachio cake was great. The servers are very kind though. I would have scored this a 1 star but service was very good hence the 2 stars . It's not the same quality on what we have had at the one near Venice beach CA

This was one of the best meals of my life. I'm a Vegas native and have eaten many a meals, but this little place was a game changer. Don't over look its small size or the lack of flash. The service was excellent, Christian made the evening amazing. Every one of the staff was top notch. I will be back for many meals in the future!

Love that there's a new addition to the Venetian/Palazzo restaurant row. Great price point. This is one of the few restaurants where the service exceeded the food. This is a produce forward, sustainable foods concept restaurant. However, something about the way the food is seasoned and/or cooked doesn't leave you the "taste" of freshness and brightness I was expecting -- salad was overdressed, soup was oily, mushrooms very smoky. The best dish we had was the dry-aged ribeye. I need to come back and try a few more dishes to see if I can give this restaurant 5*.

Incredibly rude and pretentious staff. Unwilling to make basic modifications to the fold including changing the type of pasta on that comes with a particular sauce. Management blames corporate and literally says they are puppets with no say on anything. Strongly recommend you skip this place.

Food was delicious and healthier than your typical Vegas meal. Restaurant was quiet - a nice escape from the typical Vegas ambiance!

The cured chorizo pizza was good (not great). But was a bit disappointed that some of the plates I wanted to try were only on the lunch menu (which I had just missed by minutes). Going to give the original location in Venice, CA a chance since I live close by.

Had cheese pizza and mushroom Pizza 100% delicious. Also had their ceasar and beet salad again 100% delicious. They made very good drinks too. For 4 people we each had our own pizza and salad, pizza was great for leftovers after the sphere show. Bill was close to $350 for 4 with 5 drinks

In town for a conference, I came across. Gjelina while strolling for a dinner spot. I was a party of one, so I opted for the bar rather than a table. It was busy, so I didn't mind the wait as the bartended filled drink orders. I wanted a glass of wine. My first choice was no longer available. The bartender let me know a second on the list was also, no longer available. I asked for a Sauvignon Blanc. There was one on the menu, so I assumed that was what the bartender provided. I also ordered the Gruyère, caramelized onion and arugula pizza. Pizza arrived moments after the wine. The onions were sweet, a little light on the cheese, and the arugula a nice complement to mildness of the Gruyère. The wine was solid - not great, but good. Normally, this would be a winner given it was a work trip and a choice by seat opening, not recommendation. The down side was surprise pricing. When I got the bill, the wine was more than the pizza. It definitely wasn't the Sauvignon Blanc listed on the menu, which was $8 cheaper. What could have been a good experience, left a sour taste. I hate being overcharged, more so, in a bait and switch type of move. Buyer beware.

I had a large group in the private dining room on a busy weekend in Vegas. The staff starting with Kirstyn leading up to the event, Caleb who was our attentive server, and Eric the GM who immediately followed up to check in on the experience. With a group of that size (using over 15 wine glasses a person) timing of food and wine service can be tough. The flow was perfect. The food was exemplary. I'd highly recommend the pork chop, any of the pizzas, the tomahawk, - which was as good if not better than any of the "steakhouses" in Vegas, and any of the vegetable dishes. With a group that size we tried just about everything. Having traveled to Vegas often for work, it is great to finally have a restaurant that can cater to dietary needs of everyone without feeling like you're sacrificing quality of execution. This is a must try/stop for every trip.
