Upscale Italian with panoramic Strip views and handmade pastas
"Marc Vetri’s Italian restaurant, 56 stories atop the Palms, is worth visiting for the exceptional Italian fare alone. But the floor-to-ceiling windows that gaze out over a Las Vegas cityscape bring the whole affair to another level. There are no bad seats in here, with each one lending an awe-inspiring viewpoint between bites of chestnut fettuccine with boar ragu and cocoa, spinach gnocchi with ricotta and brown butter, and roasted hen with prosciutto and foie gras." - Janna Karel
"It’s hard to rival the view that looks out over the Las Vegas Strip from the main dining room of chef Marc Vetri’s Italian restaurant, but Vetri Cucina does so with freshly made pastas like a silky chestnut fettuccine with boar ragu and cocoa and entrees like supple roasted hen nestled with prosciutto and foie gras. The restaurant is small — just 75 seats — but charming and sun-filled, just right for dining on rustic Italian while live music plays. Know before you go: Apertivo hour runs daily from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and with the Strip facing east of the restaurant’s broad windows, that means enjoying discounted salumi boards and $12 Aperol spritzes while the Las Vegas Strip glitters beyond." - Janna Karel
"Vetri Cucina, one of our highest-rated restaurants in Philly, is the place to go for a fancy date night with a billion-dollar view of the Strip. Make a reservation timed to sunset when all the lights turn on for showtime, and order the $185 six-course tasting menu. It’s the best way to try a variety of the menu’s greatest hits, including a sweet onion crêpe plopped into a puddle of warm parmesan, and the almond tortellini and spinach gnocchi “split” dish. The wine pairing is worth the extra $95 to make the evening feel even more lux." - emmy kasten
"The panoramic view and chef Marc Vetri’s exceptional Italian cuisine vie for attention at Vetri’s namesake restaurant at the Palms Las Vegas. Located on the 56th floor, the 75-seat restaurant overlooks the Las Vegas Strip from a cobblestone-laden interior. Offerings include chestnut fettuccine with boar ragu and cocoa, spinach gnocchi with ricotta and brown butter, an entree of roasted hen with prosciutto and foie gras, and desserts like the pistachio cake with orange curd gelato." - Janna Karel
"It’s hard to rival the view that looks out over the Las Vegas Strip from the main dining room of chef Marc Vetri’s Italian restaurant, but Vetri Cucina does so with just-made pastas like a silky chestnut fettuccine with boar ragu and cocoa and entrees like supple roasted hen married with prosciutto and foie gras. The restaurant is small — just 75 seats — but charming and sun-filled, just right for dining on rustic Italian while live music plays." - Janna Karel
