I liked it so much the first time that I had to return again. I am craving the flavours and sauce so much that I can't wait to return. I loved the meatballs. The seafood appetizer was great. I had to finish the plate. I enjoyed my lemon chicken but by husband had a taste and it wasn't his favourite.... more

Went two times for dinner during our three day stay in Vegas. We are Italian from New York and this cooking is what we grew up eating but just a bit finer in terms of the care that is taken. Our son loved it so much he would not hear of going anywhere else, hence the second trip back in... more

We had an excellent experience at Rao's. 5 of us went to dinner before we went to see Cher at Caesar's Palace. We were confused as to what to order because everything on the menu looked so good. The waiter suggested that we do it fammily style. We oreder 3 appetisers, shrimp, the meatballs and antipasto. Wonderful. we ordered 3... more

We spent our 12th anniversary in Vegas, and chose Rao's in Caesar's Palace. We were a bit hesitant to try it, based on past reviews, but we are glad we went. The decor and atmosphere was nice. We sat by the windows that overlook the pools in the back. The restaurant is also wheelchair accessible. The portions are large...keep this... more

We chose Rao's for a special meal for our last night in Vegas. What a mistake!! The food was okay, but nothing special - especially not for the price. The main problem was that the waiter ignored us. After taking the order, we didn't see him again until he brought the check. We usually tip generously- but not that night!... more

We went to Rao's in February when we went to Las Vegas to celebrate our anniversary. We had a fantastic dinner. We had a fantastic appetizer with calamari and zucchini. I had shrimp for dinner and they were the size of the palm of my hand. They were wonderful. My husband had rigatoni and meatballs. I thought the meatballs were... more

The food, that is, although I give them high marks for atmosphere and service. My girlfriend and I visited Rao’s on a recent Monday evening. Since I don’t expect I’ll ever get to (or into) their legendary restaurant in NYC, I was anxiously awaiting this evening. We had an early reservation, and arrived even earlier, so were seated immediately. Asked... more

Wow, I'm surprised to read some of the negative reviews. We had a great time. We ate there this past Sunday and liked it so much that we booked again for Monday night. We did find the music too loud on the Monday night but the service and food were excellent. more
