Bistecca

This restaurant is popular. We reserved a table for 615p but wasn't seated until close to 8p. There were four reservations ahead of us that were waiting for tables.The ambiance is nice and the staff was friendly and attentive. However, the service was slow. We started with sliced bread, that was similar to a croissant in texture, served with butter and honey. I had a cup of the soup of the day - minestrone - which was chunky, fresh, and warm.We ordered the chicken piccata and the beef bolognese. I paired my bolognese with pinot noir. The portions were large and all ingredients were fresh and rich.We received a free birthday creme brulee for the honoree which was wonderful. The caramel crackling was nice and caramelized and the cream was light & yummy. We, also, received two dice-sized squares of an olive oil cake. It was simple, dense, and subtly sweet.

We stayed at the Tuscany and decided to try the steakhouse. It was a solid "good", not great. We enjoyed our dinner. Very nice ambiance. They have an $80 special which is a benefit for a local charity. I got the ribeye which was an extra $10. I asked for medium rare, and it came out slightly above that. It was a good steak, however. Asparagus was cooked lightly so they were crunchy. Not my favorite way to eat them but they were healthy for me, right? The sweet chutney sauce on the asparagus really didn't enhance it. My wife had a house salad and she liked it. Good basket of bread and crackers. The Nona's cake was very good. It was not busy, but service was a little slow at times. Josef is a very nice waiter with a gift of gab. The busboy came and packed everything really nice and put them in bags. Nice young man.

As a full blooded Italian foodie from the heart of Boston's North End this place offered the best meal during my stay in Vegas! I was pleasantly surprised given it's a little off the beaten path which is a nice relief! The restaurant decor is tastefully done. The service was amazing. We weren't rushed out and they couldn't have done enough for us! I will definitely return the next time I am in town. Don't walk there...RUN!!

Surprisingly nice restaurant. We sat at the bar for appetizers and the service was excellent. The Ricotta dip and Caesar salad- amazing. The meatball appitizer is huge, more like a main course. The flavor is very good but they were a little too salty- and I like salt. The stuffed mushrooms are great! Be sure to make reservations if you want a table. I'll definitely go back again.

This is definitely an under-the-radar spot. My UNLV advisor took me here tonight to celebrate my recent promotion. She is retired but is still hanging around Vegas, and I am in town for spring break. She told me we are going to Bistecca, but I could not find it on Yelp! Turns out Tuscany Gardens changed its name to Bistecca last week. I walked here from the Bellagio (ironic, since I just visited Italy a few weeks ago and then walked from Bellagio to Tuscany here, ha)! Our server Kevin was a hoot. We started with glasses of prosecco and "Lake Mead Cocktail" (AKA tap water).We were given a bread basket with dipping oil and seasoning. Our starter was the shrimp cocktail, but it was served on a long platter with herbs and butter, with lemon and cocktail sauce on the side. It was nice. We both ordered the 8 oz filet, so I was able to work on my protein intake! We also split the broccolini and Tuscan potatoes side dishes. Everything was great: cooked perfectly, seasoned well, juicy and tender. She got another glass of prosecco, and I ordered the yuzu palmer mocktail. I love yuzu and iced tea so it was quite perfect for me! We were too stuffed for dessert but the bananas foster sounded enticing!I would definitely come back and try other dishes. Though the steak was awesome, there are many interesting Italian dishes to try. Buon appetito!

Over 15 years ago, we stayed at this hotel and ate at this restaurant. I have wanted to come back here for so long just to get the ossobuco again. They have attire guidelines (including no hats) so check with them in advance.5/5 - Bananas Foster Flambe: Bananas are flambéd tableside with banana liqueur and served with vanilla gelato. Amazing!5/5 - Spaghetti Bolognese: No bells and whistles, but exactly what my husband wanted! Just a wonderful plate of spaghetti5/5 - 24oz Veal Osso Buco: Braised bone-in veal shank served with saffron risotto. The first ossobuco I ever had was from here. It was AMAZING! This is a different recipe and a different risotto. It wasn't as good as the first one, but it was still incredible. So tender. If you are not a fan of saffron, you can also get this with fettucine.4/5 - Rigatoni: Rigatoni with guanciale, prosciutto, spicy vodka sauce, topped with mozzarella marinated in basil oil and prosciutto bread crumbs.4/5 - Arancini: Carnaroli rice, beef bolognese, stuffed with taleggio cheese, vodka sauce. This was really tasty!4/5 - 8oz Filet Mignon: Topped with a cipollini onion4/5 - Calamari Fritti: Crispy Calamari, hot cherry peppers, pepperoncini with marinara and lemon garlic aioli3/5 - Chocolate Tart: chocolate tart, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, candied hazelnut. Pretty good.3/5 - Crispy Squash Blossoms: Almond/ricotta filling, roasted almonds, parmesan cheese and purple cauliflower puree.2/5 - Blackberry Old Fashioned: Buffalo Trace, blackberry thyme syrup, bitters. Meh.1/5 - Lobster Mac 'n' Cheese: Orecchiette, mornay sauce, lobster and breadcrumbs. Not a good mac and cheese and definitely a let-down after the amazing version from CHICA the night before.Food came out to 3.6 stars. The server was great and the tableside presentation was awesome, so I will bump it up to 4 stars.

This place was amazing! Wonderful ambiance the food was so yummy. We did the rat pack is back show it came with a soup or salad an entree and a dessert.

April 9th, 2024 at 6:40pmI was treating my friend out for dinner- he has terminal cancer so I wanted it to be nice.We sat for about 8 minutes before an older blonde / grey waitress acknowledged us. I think her name may be Linda.We finally ordered everything at once - it seemed the service would likely be average or worse. The bread came with a bowl of balsamic vinegar and pepper flakes. No olive oil, salt, pepper or butter. Not good - See picture. The lukewarm asparagus was covered in a sweet chutney sauce - not good. Two very small baked potatoes arrived cold....the steaks were properly prepared. Hard to give this steakhouse 3 stars. It's located in the Tuscan Casino and Hotel. I paid $230 + for a cold substandard dinner with average (no personality) service...she likes to hand out her business cards.

I've been here a few times, and I'm a little on the fence. One of my visits, I took my managers here for dinner, and unfortunately, they were not impressed with the food. Service is always good, and HH is available at the bar. The fried calamari and mushrooms are always hits. The rest (see photos) are okay. Since the Tuscany Hotel is close to 3 of my offices, I tend to come here after work to treat out of town visitors from my Corporate Office.

6 of us went to Bistecca on a Saturday night before our show at the Bellagio. Our group was visiting from the East and West coasts. We wanted something nice but not outlandish and Bistecca was perfect. First due to some issues with some of our party arriving in town later than we thought we had to adjust the reservation and they were totally cool with it. The ambiance was great, it was actually quite quiet which we really liked. Very elegant but not pretentious. The wait staff was great, as others have mentioned they didn't rush us at all. Some of us are slow eaters and it was fine. One glass of wine we got was a bit sharp so we got a different wine, no issuesThe food was excellent. Most of us had steaks (filets or New York). Be aware the steaks are a'la carte but other meals come with sides. My wife and I were saying we wished something like this was near us at home, we'd go there for special occasions or... just because!
