Bootlegger Italian Bistro

Very nice Italian restaurant on Las Vegas Blvd South of the strip hotels. Huge place with large comfy bar and live entertainment. Our friends raved about the food here and it was good just not special. The caprese salad consisted of three small slices of hard unripe tomato, nice piece of fresh basil and a slice of store bought mozzarella. Not worth the price. The seafood fra diavalo was a nice size bowl of linguine with two large prawns, eight small clams and a handful of calamari. The sauce was ok but not distinctive. I choose the medium but detected no heat whatsoever. The lemon sorbet came in a large amount and was very tasty. The creme brulee was average and tasteless.Best part was the tasty little bread knottsLots of parking. Easy access. Good service.All.in all a mediocre experience in a town known for spectacular. .

Where do I start?! I have been going to Bootlegger for years now, so not sure why I haven’t left a review yet! It’s my favorite Italian restaurant & never disappoints. This is where I bring my family & friends when they are visiting and craving Italian food.The food is amazing, the ambiance is great, and the service has never disappointed. Last time I was there, we were seated by the live harp player. It was very relaxing and the enjoyable. I’ve also ordered food and dessert to go before and it’s just as good. The food & drinks:Limoncello – 4/5 a bit too tart for me personally Garlic bread – 5/5 best bread I’ve had in a while! Calamari – 5/5 perfectly crisp and delicious Minestrone – 5/5 my friend said it was amazing! Veal Parmigiana – 5/5 I’m craving it again just writing this review. Crème brûlée – 5/5 I usually get Tiramisu, but I loved this dessert as well!

Friend recommended for dinner. Best lasagna!!! Great service!!  Definitely will be back.

Shameful ! The bartender was busy , I get it . But she turns around and says ” I won’t give you bread until you order something  .. despicable ! Love this place but your server was unacceptable!!!

This is the best Italian restaurant in Vegas. Great service great food. It has a great relaxing atmosphere.

Everything  about this place was amazing!! The staff was so welcoming. They had live music playing ( harp ) that sounded so good that I didn’t even realize it was live! ( we were sitting in the back) the service was on point and the food was so flavorful! They have am expansive menu with lots of yummy options. I got the Italian margarita ( was tasty but a little sweet for me) , pork chops ( huge proportion, very tender  ) and a chocolate lava cake at the end ( perfect size to eat solo or for 2 people to share for an after dinner sweet tooth )

Thank you for letting us come inService was above Cody was was awesome the food was great a great place to come in and have good time Gracias

I come here when on Vacation at Tahiti village. I walk over through the mall and cross the street. Bread balls with marinara complimentary. Ok to change the noodle type and to add another protein. I added blackened shrimp to my clam linguini. Delicious. All dishes. Service- fast! A person stands and refills water without asking. And the hostess took us in without a reservation. We had a booth across from piano man. Excellent piano player and crooner type singer. Sets the ambience at old style charm. Plenty of parking. No valet. Take out- I’ve done this 4 times already in the last 4 years. Dishes stay warm and delicious. Odd thing- they use dry grated Parmesan cheese instead of the fresh grated type. For 28-46$ a pasta dish- I expected fresh. That’s okay- I still sopped up the sauce from the clam dish. Families but they appeared older like parents with their adult kids. My 12 y.o. Was the youngest person there on a Saturday night. I think there may be an age limit at night since there’s a lounge attached too. We stayed in the dining area. Eat here. Park here. Take out food here.

The variety of food options, the service and ambiance are top notch. We loved it, especially on Easter!

This place is probably our favorite spot in Las Vegas. Love that the bar is smoke free , you can order from the full menu, and you can watch a game or 3! Both Nicole’s are awesome. And JJ is the man. The owner could be more friendly considering we’ve been going here for 20 plus years and I don’t thinks she’s ever said hi once. But that’s just a small complaint. This place is great! Old school vibe too!
