Sgrizzi Ristorante & Bar by Chef Marc

My wife and I dined here as our Valentine’s dinner but not on Valentine’s Day. As we were waiting on our table to be set up, Chef Marc greeted us and gave us a mini-tour of the restaurant. Very friendly!! We were seated and our servers Michael and Wayne introduced themselves. We saw they had a 6 course tasting menu and decided to go for it along with the wine pairings. We are so happy we did! First course was Steak Tartare. Simply awesome! Second course was actually 2 courses. An octopus dish and a fried calamari! So good! Third course again was 2 courses: lobster risotto and a potato leek soup. Creamy and delicious! Chef Marc came out a apologized that the soup should have come out later since it was a heavier soup. He suggested we taste it and then he’ll have it packed up to take home. No problem! Tasted good! The fourth course was grilled swordfish. I never had swordfish before and what a great intro to that dish. The fifth course was a grilled ribeye! Very flavorful and cooked a perfect medium rare. The final course was dessert consisting of 2 cherry and pistachio bites, 2 other cheesecake bites, and a larger chocolate mousse type cake. Fantastic to the end! I could not say enough about what tremendous service we received from Chef Marc and the staff and this is now our favorite restaurant.

Wow! This place blew me away. The environment is fresh and fun and is a modern twist to the traditional Italian restaurant. The staff is amazing and you are greeted from the moment you walk in and everyone is super helpful and friendly. I wanna say thank you to the servers Jon and Josef for being so attentive. And Chef Marc who cooked the best shrimp risotto and chicken Parmesan I’ve ever had. And David the host who invited me to his restaurant and took the best care of us ever 😁

My recent visit to Sgrizzi was nothing short of spectacular, highlighted by an array of dishes that truly captured the essence of Italian cuisine with a twist. I started with the Chopped Salad, a vibrant and fresh prelude to the feast that was to follow. The star of the show, however, was the 16oz Aged Butter and Herb Crusted Ribeye, cooked to perfection with an aromatic crust that added depth to every bite. A delightful surprise was the Buttery Parmesan Polenta, which came with a side of Mashed Carrots and Sweet Pickled Cabbage. Out of these three, the mashed carrots were my absolute favorite; their smooth texture and sweet, yet earthy flavor were a highlight of the meal, showcasing Chef Marc's ability to elevate simple ingredients into something extraordinary. The Chicken Riggies added a spicy kick that was not only delicious but also memorable. Their heat was balanced just right, making them a unique and addictive component of the meal. Sgrizzi stands out as potentially the best Italian restaurant in town. The combination of quality ingredients, innovative dishes, and the evident passion in every plate makes it a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic and exquisite dining experience in Las Vegas.

This place was great! The Caesar Salad is a definite must have, and the Rigatoni pasta pair perfectly with the meatballs that you can order from the appetizer side. The only thing that I would not recommend getting is the mozzarella bread, just stick with the bread that they give you and you'll be good to go.

CHEF MARC HAS DONE IT AGAIN! A Las Vegas Culinary LEGEND, his craft has aged like a fine wine or has dry aged like his steaks! This just might be his finest work ever! From the quality and preparation of the food to the ambiance and the service, this place checks all boxes. If you want true gourmet off the strip, with off the strip prices, look no further!

AN ABSOLUTE TRIUMPH! Four of us dined for brunch today and I wish we had more room in our bellies for what was placed before us. Our children both opted for the Brioche French Toast with Nutella (one made the very wise choice of the additional berry compote on top). Unbelievably tender, but sufficiently dense brioche that was perfectly cooked and then drizzled with a very appropriate amount of Nutella (some places go overboard). The compote was mixed berry, but raspberry was the star and the tartness was perfect against the sweet, chocolate Nutella and dollops of whipped cream. My wife chose the meatball sandwich, that seemed strange for an upscale dining establishment, but they elevated the experience. The bread was a STAR! Crispy (not hard or unyielding) and tender inside. The dough was perfectly springy and absorbed the tomato sauce just enough, but not soggy. The meatballs were tender and flavorful and seemed to be a blend of pork and beef. Excellent. I had the star of the show! A special on the menu which was Short Ribs on toast with a delicious red wine hollandaise sauce. Oh the Flavors! Layered and complex with a lot of thought given to how the flavor lingered too! No heavy or overwhelming garlic or herbs. The short rib was tender and a healthy portion on thick cut crusty bread (the crust stood up more than the meatball sub/hoagy style roll). The jus from the short ribs was rich and paired well with the hollandaise. PERFECTION. Hoping they add this to the menu full time.

Rarely would I place 5 stars in all areas but this one deserves it. Chef Marc is passionate about what he creates; from the menu, to the fresh ingredients, to the personalized service. We had the calamari salad to start with - full of flavor and hint of spice which was perfect. Our server, Kevin brought us complimentary champagne to celebrate as we had shared during our conversation that we are getting married in less than 2 months. We ordered the Jidori Chicken Riggies and Vodka Arrabiata as our entrees; both had different flavors but also so delicious. The food here has the capability of capturing comfort and authenticity all at the same time. The atmosphere and ambiance truly sets the tone of a 5-star dining experience in which the food embodies that as well. Thank you Chef Marc for putting love into your food! This was truly *Chefs Kiss* for us. We will keep coming back.

When Billy Joel said “I’ll meet you anytime you want at our Italian restaurant”, this was the type of place he was talking about. It has quickly become our favorite restaurant in Las Vegas. Everything about this place is outstanding: fantastic attention to detail; warm, knowledgeable and personable service; excellent and well rounded wine list; thoughtful music; chic decor; and a chef that makes you feel like you’ve come home and you’re the most important people in the room. And that’s not even mentioning the star of the show: the food. EVERYTHING we’ve tried has been just perfect. You can tell the quality of the ingredients are top notch. Even the bread service is simple and flawless. Flawless bread is not easy and they nailed it. The caprese was a savory playful spin on the classic perfect for the winter, the prosciutto is cut to order and could not be fresher, the octopus was tender with a beautiful char, and you can’t miss the beef tartar! The bucatini Cacio e Pepe took me right back to Italy… speaking of authentic, finally an Italian gnocchi that is made the way Italian gnocchi should be made! It took me back to my grandmother’s kitchen! I wanted to cry it was so good. And the desserts are just to die for! The pistachio gelato was one of the best I’ve ever tasted and the Oro Dolce is a chocolate lovers dream. Thank you ,chef Marc, for bringing such a special place to this city!

This is our favorite restaurant Chef Marc is fantastic he's from NY and knows his stuff high quality only ...service was fantastic by bill the ambience was wonderful got our table right away on a packed night ... the homemade pastries and bread and croissants are over the top by his nephew roman we also had homemade Gelato see u soon ‍ Chef

Have been to Chef Marc's restaurants for a number of years His food keeps bringing us back The new spot is great

Our recent visit to Sgrizzi was more than amazing. place was so packed in that weekend, but Chef Marc came over to us lead to chef table . Chop salad was the most delicious , Salmon dish was the BEST!!!! We are not the desert people but we ordered one Tiramisu for 4 of us, also best ever. Chef Marc's cooking skill is elevating all the dishes to fantastic. This place is the Number ONE Italian restaurant in Las vegas

My husband and I can't count the number of times we've had dinner at Sgrizzi. We love Italian food and typically the food is phenomenal! However, when we came for date night this last Thursday we were severely let down. The service was and always is phenomenal... but when I ordered my favorite pasta dish ( the chicken riggies ) I barely recognized it. Maybe someone new was in the kitchen but the dish was extremely watery and the noodles were tough and undercooked. I was pretty surprised since I've had it quite a few times and loved it but Thursday was a major let down.

We had been to Sgrizzi for brunch and had tried the bakery, which is excellent. But finally we got to go for dinner, which is more of an experience. And that "experience" aspect is the strongest attribute of this place - from when we first walked in and began waiting for a table, the chef came over and entertained us with information about different instruments and techniques, to when we were seated and deciding and the chef again came over to discuss what was the freshest and most interesting options for us to order. That direct line of communication with the chef, along with plenty of great service from the rest of the staff, really made this experience the peak experience it could be. The table side risotto was an amazing recommendation that our table really savored. The calamari we had was probably the best I've ever had, it was amazingly light and fresh. My only reason for giving less than 5 stars is just that the price is high, and some dishes really warrant it, while other dishes we had were less remarkable. The service and experience overall were great though. I would definitely recommend Sgrizzi for an amazing night out!

Weekend Brunch Review We love Chef Marc - having experienced a couple of his past restaurants and having such a great experience with him. One of our fondest memories was at his pizza place on Eastern in Henderson - Novecento. We had ordered a pizza and Chef Marc happened to be walking by and saw it. He was not happy with how it came out and offered to make us a new one. He invited us behind the counter to help him make it and the Husband had the best time doing it. (I was watching the Little Guy, so my hands were full.) He was so personable and just a lovely person in this casual encounter. On another occasion, we were dining with a large party at Parma by Chef Marc and the 7-course menu had been pre-organized. Chef Marc came out to talk to our large table and to go over each item. It was such an engaging evening with wonderful food. When word got out that Chef Marc was opening up a restaurant in the southwest area of town, we couldn't wait! It was a bit confusing intially with the opening of Florentine Cafe also. From what I gather, Florentine Cafe is a pastry shop with mostly sweet items and desserts. They are a few savory options though. It's mostly a take out place as there really isn't any seating and I'm not sure if you can sit in the Sgrizzi Restaurant side. Meanwhile, Sgrizzi Restaurant and Bar by Chef Marc is mostly open for dinner. However, they do offer a weekend brunch option and that's how we found ourselves dining there. With a limited menu, our party of four went with four dishes to share. They offer four savory options, two sweet ones, and three pasta dishes. I've seen a few Instagram reels and their affogato looks amazing. However, I didn't want to order this decadent drink until after our brunch came out. * Giambotta $18 - This was surprisingly quite a large size, but a bit one note. The Husband mentioned that if you got a bite of the hot cherry pepper, it helped a lot. Unfortunately, my few bites didn't include that. It also came with an arugula salad and focaccia bread. 3/5 * Polenta, Egg & Mushroom $16 - Their polenta was very good, mushrooms well cooked, and came with 2 sunny side up eggs. It also came with an arugula salad and focaccia bread. 4/5 * Bucatini Carbonara $20 - This pasta was heavy from the moment you looked at it. It was good, but definitely puts you out for the day if you eat the whole dish to yourself. 4/5 * Bucatini Basil Pesto $18 - Their version is more on the creamier side, so again, it was quite heavy. Good, but can put you to sleep if you consume the whole thing. It's considered a "summertime classic", but I think a lighter version would be nice too. 4/5 The manager came by our table earlier to drop off a couple of hot sauces, which I believe is made by one of the partners. This is definitely something you need to add to the omelette dishes. When it came down to it, this was a heavy meal for a weekend brunch and we had leftovers as well. As a result, I never made it to the affogato as it was just too much. Their dinner menu is quite extensive though and would love to return to check that out.

We had brunch here on Saturday. We were early, so not a lot of people were inside. There is a limited menu for brunch items. I had the Brioche French Toast with berries on top. My friend had the meatball sub. The single slice of French Toast filled me up, but if you are a hearty eater, you would want more than that. It was veI wish it would have came with a slice or two of bacon. I don't remember seeing that as a side order. The meatballs on the sub were delicious. The sub was smothered with some serious cheese! The brunch menu is really limited in choices. The prices were very reasonable. When you first walk in, there is a little pastry & coffee/cappucino counter. Everything looks decadent! I have to come back to get a cannoli and a cappuccino! Off & running today!

I've been here a few times for dinner, and I really enjoy the atmosphere in the evening. The dinner menu and flavors are excellent. However, my first experience with their brunch was a bit disappointing. Everything was overly salty, especially their pasta. The croissant with egg and ham was the best thing I ordered--it wasn't salty and was cooked perfectly. The cheese dish was okay, but it was still too salty for my taste. I've had their meatballs for dinner before and thought they were great, but for some reason, during brunch, they were tough and overly salty. I'll definitely continue coming back for dinner, but I hope they make some improvements to their brunch menu. I think it would really help their business!

Drive by this place every day and wondered what it was all about. This might be our new date night spot. I'd come here just to fulfill my sweet tooth cravings. There was not a single dish that let us down. Everything was really good. Even the house bread was good. It was so soft and delicious. Dipped it in our pasta sauce. Excellent. Branzino was tender. Sauce was light and flavorful. Balanced out the heartiness of the short ribs which was also superb. My bf doesn't normally like sweets but he said it was the best Chocolate Gelato and Pistachio Affogato he's ever had. The gelato was so silky and smooth. Last but not least, the service was spot on. They were constantly checking if everything was okay. Cleaned our tables during every course. Our waters were always full. Even gave us the Chocolate Gelato on the house since we were celebrating our anniversary. I'd wanna keep this place a secret just so I don't want to be on a waiting list but I want this place to stay open so give it a shot!

Went back for dinner and it was incredible! This restaurant never skips a beat! The service was also fast and friendly. This was my second time sitting at the bar and enjoyed it very much! We ordered: Arrabiata (pasta) 8.5/10 Mashed Potatoes 8.5/10 Don's Chicken Marsala 10/10 Pasta e Fagioli (soup) 10/10 I highly recommend checking out this restaurant! They get busy so I recommend reservations!

I just graduated from UNLV and I had a low-key celebration with my boyfriend at Sgrizzi following the commencement (a bigger celebration is to be held later). After seeing all the hype about Sgrizzi, a new Italian restaurant here in town, I thought this would be a great place to go to after achieving a major milestone in my life, as I have become the first person in my family to hold a bachelor's degree. When we walked in, we were greeted by a bakery with a different name. Initially, we believed that we walked into the wrong establishment, but the hostess asked us if we were dining in. We said yes, and she directed us to the door on the left to get to the dining area. So heads up to those planning to go to Sgrizzi in the future, you will be met with a nice little bakery when you enter. I made a reservation for 7:00pm on 12/18/24. We got a table near the back of the restaurant facing the kitchen, with Kevin being our waiter for the night. Once we were seated, we got started with a complimentary bread basket that had raisins in it, I believe. I'm not 100% sure if it was raisins, but it definitely looked like the texture of raisins. The bread also came with a small bowl of vinegar, which I felt to be a little strong for my taste. I enjoyed a glass of Chardonnay while we waited for our food to come out. If it wasn't on a Wednesday night and if I didn't drive here, I would've had more than one glass of this. We shared a plate of cheesy garlic bread as our appetizer. This was indeed cheesy and really good. Our entrees were the Bucatini Cacio e Pepe pasta for me and the Chicken Riggies pasta for my boyfriend. Unfortunately, it did take a long time for our food to come out...I think we waited between 20-30 minutes, if I remember correctly. It was busy at the time when we got there, but it was slowly filing out as we finished our cheesy garlic bread and as I finished my Chardonnay. The Bucatini was good and it had an exceptional quantity, but at the same time, I feel that they overdid it on the black pepper a bit, which made it spicier the more I finished it. And no, I did not ask for extra pepper. My boyfriend's Chicken Riggies, which also had an exceptional quantity, looked absolutely delicious with all that cheese and sauce mixed in. He said it was also spicy but that's because there were jalapeños mixed in. Anniversaries, date nights, get together with friends, or any other special occasion, Sgrizzi is the place to go. Come check them out!

Good to see Chef Marc opening up off-strip again. Great spacious spot past Blue Diamond Road on the Southwest side of town. We popped in for brunch on a Sunday and ordered the meatball sandwich($16.99) and Bucatini Carbonara($20) to share. Slightly disappointing as parts of the bread were burnt BLACK and inedible, meatballs were okay. The pasta for the Carbonara was good, however, the portion size and the skimpy amount of guanciale in my opinion didn't justify the $20 price point ( looking at the menu pictures just 4 months ago, it was $16!?) Hopefully in the future there will be dishes from Chef Marc's Parma and Novecento days that kept people coming back. Only time will tell. Wanted to like the food, but for now, it's so-so.

Just had dinner for our anniversary, the day before Valentines. Thankfully, we had a reservation. The place was packed but that did not stop Alex and Wayne from being absolute superstars. Each course came out quickly, Chef Marc stopped by to chat to every table, it was a delightful experience. We finished the meal with table side Tiramisu- WOW. Despite also having a very large party booked, it wasn't too loud, the service never suffered, and everyone appeared to enjoy their evening. Highly recommend checking this place out.

Phenomenal!!! The food and service were outstanding! The decor and overall feel in the restaurant is upscale, cozy, and warm. Love all the decor and layout of the restaurant! We had a late night Saturday reservation. The servers were friendly and on top of everything. The food was incredible!! We had the butternut squash soup and burrata to start. Both were delicious. For dinner we had the bolognese and chicken parmesan. We devoured both. We got the bundino and chocolate cake for dessert to go. The bakery here is unbeatable! The wine and smoked old fashion were delicious and not one drop was left. We enjoyed everything so much!! We will be back with the whole family!

One of the newest neighborhood Italian restaurants recently opened up so we definitely had to give it a try. We made reservations for a Saturday night and it was a good idea as the tables were very spaced out to give each table privacy. It has a modern, cool ambiance with low lighting to provide a more intimidate feeling. We got seated quickly after checking in. They don't have a huge menu so it made choosing our entree easy. We went with the Utica greens as an appetizer, and the butternut squash ravioli and wild boar ragu for entrees. We also did the table side tiramisu to round out our selections. The food came in the order they were ordered, and they were great! The Utica greens was a pleasant surprise as we've never tried crusted vegetables that had cured meat and cheese. Pasta was very fresh and house made. The wild boar was definitely not for everyone as it was gamy, but overall everything was great. The best thing was definitely the tiramisu, and we had to customize it as we didn't want alcohol during the preparation, and they were very accommodating and it did not alter the flavor at all. Well done! Service was excellent as well , as our server was constantly checking in to make sure we were ok and offered suggestions that he thought would work well for us. We'll definitely be back to try out some of their other items on the menu in the future.

After being told how delicious this place by my friend when she took her parents here for father's day, I had took this chance to take my mother here for her birthday this year. Chef Marc is renowned for his restaurants over the years in the Las Vegas valley and its exciting to hear that he has another one. Since this was a birthday, I had made reservations on their website (goes to opentable) for 6pm on a Wednesday evening. Had arrived a few minutes late due to nearby construction but there were plenty of tables and was seated immediately upon arrival. Dark ambiance but each table has a mini lamp for lighting. Fairly quiet. My mom and I love food so I went all out and ordered a ton of food for the 2 of us. Some fresh warm crusty bread was given after ordering with a dish of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. As delicious as this already was, we were trying to limit ourselves from indulging in all the bread since I ordered so much (bread disappeared anyway) SPANISH OCTOPUS (Chargrilled tender over olive, sharp provolone, hot cherry peppers, celery, pear tomatoes, olive oil, lemon) I love a good grilled octopus and this one did not disappoint at all. Chef Marc even came out introducing the dish and the inspiration. I'm not much of a fan of olives (except the ones i had IN italy, but these were doable). The combination suggested was to have octopus, olives,, provolone, peppers, tomatoes all in 1 bite. WOW was it a burst of flavors ! YUM ! CAPRESE SALAD (Summer ripe tomatoes cut thick with fresh mozzarella, balsamic reduction, extra virgin olive oil) Summer tomatoes were still in season when I had went so it was delicious. Now the menu seemed to have changed to fire roasted red peppers instead. We love a good caprese. Tomatoes were full of sweetness and umami with the fresh thick mozzarella. The balsamic reduction was perfectly tart and sweet at the same time. HOT SEAFOOD ANTIPASTI (Oishii shrimp, baked clams, eggplant, mussels, mushrooms, bell peppers, artichoke hearts, and pan made sauce) I didn't realize how LARGE this was (maybe i should've read the details more in-depth when it says "for 2-4 people". BIG plate of fresh seafood on a bed of eggplant/artichoke hearts topped with bread crumbs and baked. Definitely not small for 4 people but was just right for 2 piggies (if you know what i mean) (SPECIAL) WILD BOAR RAGU (Casarecce pasta in a hearty Tuscan sauce) A very heart unique type of pasta with a nice flavorful ragu, topped with a dollop of what id assume maybe stracciatella? Pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. Pasta took up the ragu and carried it quite well. Probably the "most flavorful" of the 3 pasta's i ordered. PASTA GENOVESE (Neapolitan origins, slow cooked beef cheeks, onions until creamy w rigatoni pasta) Slow cooked beef cheeks seemingly deep fried on top of a tomato-ey creamy rigatoni pasta. The beef cheeks had a "crust" on the outside but was nice and soft on the inside. Pretty good ! SHRIMP SCAMPI (Oishii shrimp with linguini) "Plainest" of the 3 pasta's but the shrimp was delicious and large. A lot of scampi's are mildly overpowering with the amount of lemon juice put in the sauce but this was nice and mild. Yes, it was the "plainest" but it was still delicious ! Had an amazing dinner. Definitely love Chef Marc's creations. Its nice to see he tries to visit every table to introduce his dishes and inspirations personally. Its nice to know and hear his ideas. This place is now one of my highly recommended italian places to anybody.

Chef Marc has done it again ! I'm so glad his new restaurant is near my house ! I had the 8 course tasting menu. I don't know what I'm getting every time but it's a pleasant and delicioussurprise! Yvette our waitress and all the staff was so friendly. Restaurant is beautiful! Food is delicious but surprisingly my bill is very reasonable less than expected.. service and good was off the charts .

Upon entering, you are greeted with a small, welcoming bakery. Here you can order some pastries or coffee to go. But when you take a left through the doors, you enter Sgrizzi, the main restaurant! They're open Tuesdays through Sundays for dinner, and every Saturday and Sunday for brunch. The dining room is a well lit and spacious room, a beautiful place to celebrate an occasion. My friend and I came here on a Saturday morning to try their brunch menu. We were excited to try the house made pastas as we knew Chef Marc is known for it. We ordered the Pesto Pasta and the Bucatini Carbonara. The Pesto Pasta was delicious! We asked the chef and he confirmed that there are no nuts in the pesto (our nut allergy friends, rejoice!), though it still had a slight nutty flavor to it. The sauce was creamy and flavorful; our only complaint was that the pasta for this was overcooked. As you bit into the pasta, it was slightly mushy, but still delicious. Now the Carbonara looked delicious, but it was overly salty for our liking. The pasta was cooked well for this pasta, having a nice bite and bounce to it, and it was creamy and peppery, but the saltiness overpowered all the other flavors in the dish. The bread the dishes came with were soft and fluffy, melting in your mouth and they were perfect to wipe up the sauces on the pastas. Overall we enjoyed our experience and I would love to come back and try their dinner menu!

Easy one of the best experiences i have had at an Italian restaurant. All 3 of my dishes had so much flavor. The head chef was super nice chatting with us. I am looking forward to trying the pesto pasta one day soon.

Chef Marc has returned and it did not disappoint! Hidden in the mountains edge area. It's now my favorite local Italian restaurant. I'm always a big fan of Chef Marc, from Parma to Trattoria. I love how Chef Marc incorporated spice into Italian pastas that you don't find it that often. Service: decent services inside of the restaurant. The waiter did forgot about our order though or the machine issue. The cashier or the manager at the bakery side was not friendly at all. It was throwing me off for the night. Ambiance: great low key casual for daily dinners or upscale dates. Dress up or down. Nice bar area to watch some games. Food: our cocktail luacato was delicious. I enjoyed the beef tartare, loved the pasta. Shrimp fra diavolo pasta is delicious. Love the texture of the pasta. Chicken riggies was excellent too. Love the pink tomato sauce and rigatoni was cooked to perfection. We got the comp pistachio gelato that was so good so I went to order one to go at the bakery side. I can't wait to go back and try other dishes. Highly recommended for local to check it out.

I came in for brunch and had an amazing experience! The server was incredibly knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations. When you first walk in, there's a charming little bistro/to-go area where you can grab croissants, cannolis, other pastries, and coffee. There's also a small seating area there, but the main dining room, complete with a lovely bar, offers a more full dining experience. Our table for five had a Lazy Susan in the center--a thoughtful and convenient touch! For food, we shared the brioche French toast, which was absolutely divine--highly recommend it! We also tried the pesto pasta, meatball sandwich, mushroom polenta, and an egg entrée. Everything was cooked perfectly, and everyone at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The highlight of the meal was, without a doubt, the Affogato. If you need one reason to visit, let it be for this Affogato --it's unforgettable!

My wife and I came in for dinner the other night and it was an odd experience. For reference this was a Thursday and it was about 50% full. We sat for about 10 minutes before anyone came to our table. A guy stopped by, said he was the wine expert and if we had any questions let him know and he walked away. He didn't return anytime soon. Waiter 1 stops by and asks us if we want anything to drink, we ordered 2 glasses of wine. A few minutes later, waiter 2 stops by and asks the same thing. Finally another young lady stops by and gives us water. We ordered the meatballs and pasta e fagioli. They arrived a bit later and there was no spoon provided. The same young lady came by and we asked for a spoon. The meatballs and sauce lacked any flavor and the "soup" was disappointing. Neither waiter stopped by to ask how they were. Before our starters arrived, we were asked if we wanted to put our main order I , which we did. The mains arrived, mine was chicken parm and hers was shrimp scampi. My chicken was piping hot, but the pasta was like warm. Her pasta was great. It was at least 5 or so minutes later when the same young lady g lady came by and asked if we wanted fresh Parmesan cheese. Neither of the waiters stopped by to make sure everything was ok. Near the end of the meal, waiter 1 finally stopped by and I shared our thoughts. "I will let the chef know, thanks." Nothing came of that conversation. The wine guy stopped by again to ask if we were getting dessert. I told him we hadn't seen any dessert menus. He had the hostess bring them over. The chef did stop by before we had any food to say hi and again after we are. He only asked if we had enough to eat and left. We ended up passing on dessert and waited quite awhile to finally get the bill. The young Asian girl was amazing, the waiters so so. We say 2 of the 5 items were good, the others were not. Not the best experience, certainly had better service and food. The pasta was fresh and mine would had been better actually hot. Really this is about a 2.5 experience.

We came here on Friday night by accident: we thought we made a reservation at a different Italian restaurant on Blue Diamond via Open Table but somehow we navigated here. Despite it being Friday night, we were able to get a table within 12 minutes, which was great. I ordered the bone marrow as an appetizer: woah, there was a bit too much oil on the toasts that accompanied and the flat leaf parsley was mysteriously served in large chunks, it would have been nicer to have this finely chopped and on the side. For main course I got lobster spaghetti, which comes with a delicious cream sauce. Unexpectedly, Chef Marc came out to chat with us. I asked him if he'd consider doing a lobster spaghetti with tomato sauce and he said "You just have to ask because I might say yes!" Drinks: Aperol spritz was done well and Montepulciano by the glass: very good Overall I'd come again and try to choose some seafood or steak, as I bet that'd be good too!

We had Sunday brunches there. We were party of 3 and greeted by a service staff to seat us in a spacious booth. All food was delicious and well presented. Our server is very friendly and efficient. Left my phone in the car and no photos were taken. But the restaurant is very spacious with contemporary design. Highly recommend! I regret that I have no photos to share.

I think I said "so good" like 50 times for dinner Really enjoyed it and I made reservations for a Sunday night at 7pm which helped because they were busy. Entrance was a little tricky because it's appears to be their cafe side but pop on in and you will see the restaurant entrance. Open format with TVs for sporting events. We started with the Caesars Salad which is classic. The garlic bread with mozzarella which we loved but must love garlic. (They do offer free bread also so double bread) Lastly...beef tartare which 1000% would recommend. I didn't need the bread for the tartare I liked it in the lettuce. So so good. All 3 solid but still loved that tartare. For entrees we had the Cacio e pepe which was as I expected and peppery. The shrimp scampi had huge shrimp and I loved the delicious linguine. The chicken Marsala flavors were on point and if you order a side of mashed potatoes then make sure to sop the sauce. Comes with a simple marinara pasta side. In this course the scampi was the one for me. For dessert and for the coffee lovers. The tiramisu was delicious! The espresso was nice and strong and the mascarpone was so delightful. I just loved it and would end with that. Chef checked on us multiple times and the staff was so attentive. Would highly recommend!!

My family and I went during brunch. The food was so good! Especially the pesto pasta. The service was really good as well and they were so patient with us and my family. Unfortunately, when we tried the cafe the girls upfront were not as welcoming as the staff within the restaurant. However, the affogato was so good! I'll try the bakery again in the morning when they are probably a little nicer.

Atmosphere is great. Caesar salad is fantastic, linguine Nero had a nice spice to it. Chicken parmigiana and ribeye were the best.

My first experience was somewhat questionable due to a few service mistakes and some miscommunication. It feels like they're trying a bit too hard to make everything perfect. However, the food is fantastic--absolutely delicious. Since it's an Italian restaurant, I recommend sticking with the Italian dishes; you won't regret it. The desserts are to die for! The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a very enjoyable atmosphere. The décor is great, and the space is open and inviting. I'll be back, and I'll update my review after giving them another chance!

I've been in an Italian food high for the last few weeks. Blame that on my Italian boyfriend LOL! This restaurant popped up on my Instagram feed, and also was recommended by Chef Rob from 702 meal prep. IR was Friday- So, we decided to drive ALLLLLL the way from Utah to California. Aka Henderson to Las Vegas LOL! I will always travel FAR for food!! I made reservations on open table one week prior, and they had a decent amount of availability then. I always prefer to make reservations, but observed that a couple of people walked in without reservations. We arrived early for our reservations, and we were greeted immediately upon arrival. Senses - When we opened the door, there was a lovely aroma of pastries and desserts in addition to coffee! (You already had me at pastries) *Inserts drooling emoji* This is definitely a unique concept. ( At least for me) Because of this, you have the option of dining there with the goodies or inside the actual restaurant. Now for the food! We ordered the chicken marsala and my boyfriend ordered the chicken parmesan. For our appetizer we ordered " His Father's balls" aka his "Father's meatballs" LOL Both entrees came with a side order of homemade pasta and sauce aka gravy for the Italians LOL! And for dessert we shared the tiramisu as we were both completely stuffed! PS the tiramisu came in a cup that was made out of chocolate! Everything tasted great and we both were content with the overall experience! PS- Our waitress told us that the menu changes every three days, which is impressive and again unique. So, we'll definitely be back to see what's new on the menu! As always, I'll be back in my Arnold Schwarzenegger voice!

Chef Marc delivers a 5-Star dining experience for the three of us. We booked this dinner for my Mother-In-Law's birthday and we're so pleased we couldn't stop raving about it to friends and family. The food was timed and portioned appropriately for 8 courses leaving us completely satisfied. Our server, Kevin, guided us through our tasting with a lovely wine suggestion. We had a bottle of Orin Swift 8 Years in the Desert 2018. Chef Marc was delightful conversation explaining each dish, giving us a bit of back ground or history of how he came about the recipe. I would highly recommend doing a 6, 8, or 10 course Chef's Table experience for a special occasion or something different. Chef Marc said he changes the tasting menu frequently so we are looking forward to booking our next one in a few months! The table side service was outstanding, the young man who made the tiramisu explained everything and even left out the alcohol for me since I am currently pregnant. Chef Marc has a great thing going, I hope they continue to grow and expand, maybe he'll open one in our part of town in Green Valley. The only suggestions I would mention is a little bread with the pasta dish to sop up some of the delicious sauce, but not too much bread because then we'd be too full for the other courses. Lastly, when we arrived the hostess, who was very nice and probably instructed to do this, asked us which of the 6, 8, or 10 course we'd like to do and said the price of the tasting in front of our birthday guest. We were aware of the pricing and would have preferred to have that discussed at our table, not at the hostess stand. Other than that, the entire evening was perfect.

Tried the brunch here and I'm not going to lie, the pasta was the best I've tried in my entire life (I'm still thinking about it right now). The pasta and plate came out piping hot which I loved. The pasta was served with an in-house made bread which was soft and soaked up the sauce perfectly. All of the ingredients were high quality. Service was great, the waiter came by multiple times to check on us and refill water without asking and was extremely friendly. Interior was clean, lighting was perfect, solid ambience, and the owner checked on all of the guests to make sure they had a good experience. I've also tried the bakery that is connected to the restaurant (both pastries and a couple different coffee drinks, everything was super high quality and delicious). Can't recommend this place enough and can't wait to come back and try this spot for dinner!

Food, service and ambiance are all a 10/10. Highly recommend this establishment. Homemade pasta and overall great quality food. Do not sleep in this brunch and the pastries up front. We needed a really special spot like this on the Southwest and Sgrizzi does not disappoint!

Have always wanted to try this spot but it wasn't until my birthday rolled around that my girlfriends suggested we go for lunch. We had heard great things and we were really looking forward to it. You enter through the bakery and then find your way into the restaurant. They only had two other tables. I would've loved to give to more stars but what really hurt our experience was the service. No smiles. No sense of urgency. No customer "service". The food, however, was absolutely amazing!!!! We look forward to trying it again as I hope to rave about our experience! Chef-your food tastes fabulous

My husband and I came here for the first time and were immediately impressed with the ambiance at Sgrizzi. The music is great, and the decor is beautiful and relaxing. The owner introduced us to the butcher counter, and we were seated pretty quickly. Service was great, but the food was phenomenal. We shared the chopped salad, bolognese, ribeye, red cabbage and mashed potatoes. Everything was delicious. We will be back and you should run here for your next evening out.

When Billy Joel said "I'll meet you anytime you want at our Italian restaurant", this was the type of place he was talking about. It has quickly become our favorite restaurant in Las Vegas. Everything about this place is outstanding: fantastic attention to detail; warm, knowledgeable and personable service; excellent and well rounded wine list; thoughtful music; chic decor; and a chef that makes you feel like you've come home and you're the most important people in the room. And that's not even mentioning the star of the show: the food. EVERYTHING we've tried has been just perfect. You can tell the quality of the ingredients are top notch. Even the bread service is simple and flawless. Flawless bread is not easy and they nailed it. The caprese was a savory playful spin on the classic perfect for the winter, the prosciutto is cut to order and could not be fresher, the octopus was tender with a beautiful char, and you can't miss the beef tartar! The bucatini Cacio e Pepe took me right back to Italy... speaking of authentic, finally an Italian gnocchi that is made the way Italian gnocchi should be made! It took me back to my grandmother's kitchen! I wanted to cry it was so good. And the desserts are just to die for! The pistachio gelato was one of the best I've ever tasted and the Oro Dolce is a chocolate lovers dream. Thank you ,chef Marc, for bringing such a special place to this city!

Chef Marc has created the best Italian restaurant around. This place has that old school Italian feel. High end, inviting and great food. We've come here many times mostly for dinner and everything we've ordered has been delicious. From the parms to Utica greens to the meatballs we haven't had one thing that we didn't enjoy. The ambiance makes this great, the homemade food is real Italian and often if you're lucky you'll get Chef coming over to your table to ask how your meal is. This place also offers brunch and we felt it was one of the best in town but one on the heavier side food wise. This place has gotten busy quick which is also well deserved, I would say to make a reservation to guarantee your table since we've walked in on weekends and it's been too busy!

I went to Florentine Cafe first (the pastry shop inside the restaurant) and the iced coffee was delicious. The staff gives the best recommendations, so if you are not sure what to get - simply ask someone! At Sgrizzi, I had an amazing authentic Italian pasta made by Raul, and I would 100% come here to order it again. Staff is very attentive, willing, and kind. The place itself was super clean and extremely well kept! 10/10

I'm restoring my review after some consideration. Chef Marc messaged me and essentially attacked me, first telling me that I knew nothing about food and calling me trash, but then begging me to remove my 1 star review because it hurt his ego. Well, I did so, and after that he went gently into that goodnight - so to speak. Noticing a recent trend of negative reviews for this establishment, and deservedly so, I'm bringing my thoughts back here again. I have had several wonderful Italian meals lately in Las Vegas - Gjelina, Scarpetta, etc. Marc thinks he is operating on that level, but the level he is operating on, both from a culinary standpoint and on a level of professional decorum is more on par with Macaroni Grille. I encourage him to take a hard look in the mirror and learn and grow from criticism, rather than thinking he is above everyone else.

New spot in the southwest!!! Went to the opening and everything was delicious! Seasoned to perfection and nice portions. The staff is amazing and were spot on despite it being super packed!! It's a great vibe and the set up is great, looking forward to returning for dinner!

Oops! I was sincerely enthusiastic to come here for dinner, but my experience was disappointing. The positives: 1) Chef Marc stopped by to say hello and ask if I had any questions about the menu 2) The ambience is chic, dim lights, good mood and nice sleek decor The not-so-good, needs improvement : 1) Prices are very steep, $32 for Vodka Arrabbiata pasta (should come with a protein or veggies for the cost) 2) Huge rigatoni pasta pieces but NOT spicy - which the menu states is spicy, and I was hoping it would be - instead flavor was bland and pink sauce was watery 3) Was not offered a drink refill or water 4) Service was slow and waiter was abrupt 5) Dessert menu was not offered at end of meal For amazing Italian food and service, try: Azzurra Cucina Italiana and Prosecco Ciao!

Great meal at Sgrizzi, off Blue Diamond/Rainbow. Steak tartar was excellent. They fresh grind the meat to order. Caesar salad was tasty. My wife had the octopus app for her entire, added a side of broccolini. It was 2 large tender pieces of octopus. My chicken parm was great. Huge piece of chicken. We will definitely be back. Chef Marc was there to welcome us at the door. This was our first visit. Service was great (bill was our server, Kevin helped him). We had a nice large booth for the 2 of us. Can't wait to try their cafe for coffee/dessert.

Very good food, service was wonderful, felt like I was at a high end restaurant on the strip. Would definitely recommend!

Finally made it to the spot that's been practically taunting me from next door since it opened. Walked in, and the ambiance was pretty slick--cozy, but classy enough that you feel like you should at least be wearing pants without holes. Started with Father's meatballs, and I gotta say, I think Father might need to call in some reinforcements. They weren't terrible, just felt like they might benefit from a good pep talk from father. The boar gnocchi and the beef tartar were up next, and they were both solid. The gnocchi were soft little potato clouds, and the boar had that "outdoor adventure" vibe, while the beef tartar was like a fancy beef sushi, all fresh and seasoned up nicely. Tasty for sure, but nothing that'll have you writing poetry about your dinner later. They're like that friend who's reliable, always fun, but you wouldn't exactly trust them with a secret or your Netflix password. And then, we arrived at the lobster spaghetti. Pure luxury on a plate, buttery and delicious, the kind of dish that makes you think, "Wow, I must be doing something right." But when you get the bill, you also wonder, "Am I sure I can afford to keep doing this right?" Worth every penny, though. It's like that expensive date you know you'll be bragging about for months.

I've eaten here several times, and Chef Marc never disappoints. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, the food is always incredible, and the service is top-notch every time. We eat out a couple of times a week, exploring everything from Las Vegas Strip spots to neighborhood gems. So, having a local favorite like Sgrizzi nearby is a real win. Though I'm not a professional chef, I love to cook and often host large dinner parties. Reading some of these negative reviews is surprising--they seem more like complaints for the sake of complaining, often from self-proclaimed "Yelp Elite." Chef Marc's commitment to quality speaks for itself, and I'm thrilled to have his restaurant close to home.

I have been into the neighborhood gem twice now. The staff is so kind and goes out of their way to make sure everyone is happy. The food is amazing ingredients are fresh! Drinks are delicious too! Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area.

This new spot on the southwest is surprisingly... an actual hole in the wall restaurant? We entered through the attached bakery into a cool restaurant area. The dining room is a bit small and while I liked the decor- it was kind of all over the place! Our servers were really nice, but I definitely didn't get a high end vibe even though that's what it felt like the ambiance was trying to achieve. Our pastas were good, but a bit bland honestly. The best part of my dinner was the mocktail which tasted great! Overall, I was whelmed. Nothing bad, nothing great.

Anyone familiar with dining in Las Vegas will know the name Marc Sgrizzi, his original location giving way to Pizzerias followed by a Trattoria and even a hotel venture prior to a new eponymous venture located on South Rainbow. Self-taught, with over four decades of experience, Sgrizzi Ristorante & Bar promotes itself as a traditional Italian eatery while an attached market offers everything from import specialty goods to handmade Pasta and Desserts from Pastry Chef Roman Ritz. Open for Dinner Tuesday through Sunday, the recent addition of Sunday Brunch from 9am to 2pm perfect for NFL football at the bar, it was on a Thursday prior to noon that a collection of Pastries were enjoyed and whether one selects better-than-average Cornetti or impressive Pan Suisse the real star are Sfogliatelle with faultless layers and lemony filling nearly as good as those in Naples. Will need to return for Dinner.
