"From 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, Ferraro’s will feature a three-course prix fixe holiday menu priced at $89 per person and $29 for children under 12. To start, guests can choose from Italian favorites such as mushroom risotto, butternut squash ravioli, and a pancetta and Cannellini bean pasta soup. For the main course, turkey, cranberry chutney, sausage stuffing, potato puree, and green beans will be served. Finally, a choice of cannoli, pumpkin pie, pistachio ice cream, or tiramisu will be offered for dessert. The regular dinner menu will also be available." - Emmy Kasten
"Ferraro’s is a Las Vegas special occasion classic that’s been open since 1985. You’ll always find families and groups celebrating here, whether they’re singing happy birthday in one of the private rooms or passing around plates of tender osso buco on the surprisingly-quiet patio. Don’t miss their excellent pistachio passione dessert—the layers of cream cheese custard on a walnut crust are so good, you might have to order two so no one fights over the last bite. We also like coming here for a bowl of bucatini and glass of wine before plans on the Strip, since it’s a short drive away from the main stretch." - emmy kasten, andrew ryce
"Wine and fashion enthusiasts will not want to miss an exclusive evening with Salvatore Ferragamo, president of the eponymous fashion house, and his Il Borro winery. The special wine dinner will take place on Wednesday, May 14 at 6 p.m. and will feature pairings like porcini tagliatelle with Pian di Nova 2020 and lamb filet paired with Il Borro 2020, the estate’s flagship red blend. Tickets are $175 per person and space is limited. Reservations are available by calling 702-364-5300." - Emmy Kasten
"Dine on Italian fare outdoor under the stars at Ferraro’s, especially during ora sociale (happy hour) from 5 to 7 p.m. for pizzas, cured meat plates, traditional meatballs, stuffed peppers, and more, all for less than $15. Or skip the decision-making and opt for one the excellently curated tasting menus, that include thinly sliced raw prime sirloin carpaccio, campanelle pasta with Calabrese sausage, and braised rabbit with soft polenta. Save room for tiramisu." - Janna Karel
"Ferraro’s has been a Las Vegas mainstay since 1985, serving cuisine from Southern Italy such as the pappardelle Mimmo with wide pasta mixed with scallops, lobster, asparagus, butter, sage, and truffles. Located near the Las Vegas Convention Center, the restaurant has several private dining rooms of varying sizes, just right for private groups. Ferraro’s also hosts monthly wine-pairing dinner events." - Janna Karel
