text: This restaurant is located in the casino of the New York New York Hotel Casino on the strip with options of dining inside or outside in the casinonnMy partner and I thought we would give it a try mid week with no need to make reservationsnnThe food was quite good for the price paid Slightly classy Italian with decent selection of appetisers and breads The serving sizes were perfect and we did not require ice cream or coffee afterwardnnHOWEVER there were a few issues we had with our dining experience The primary issue was with service The restaurant was almost empty when we arrived and we were both told to wait outside and you will be seated immediately What they did not mention was that we had to wait for the floor staff to finish laughing amongst themselves before nothing to seat usnnOnce finally seated we looked through the menu chose our meals and twiddled our thumbs and yawned a few times before the waiter came back minutes later with water and the free bread we were meant to receive on arrival He had forgotten to get the oil and vinegar for the breads so we ordered our food and waited for our oilnn minutes later a lady who could not understand much english came along with the oil and poured it all over the place yes this was a language barrier issue the oil was everywhere like a crime scene and we spent a few moments giving the place a good wipe down in preparation for the mealnnThe mains were actually quite timely once we disregard the other delays Although I did spend a further minutes figuring out where the restroom was in the casino why the fck there was not one in the restaurant I will never knownnAs stated above the meals were finennOnce we were finished we spent about minutes staring into space yawning before we walked to the bar to ask for our bill The bill eventually came along it was not too badnnWould I go there again No Was the food great Yes Do they need to sort out their staff Yes Did we tip them HELL NO
