text: A couple random thoughts regarding CarnevinonnIts a nice restaurant and on it is own it is a great restaurants however I have been to better I had the bone in ribeye and it was good However I prefer boneless steaks and I accidentally ordered the bone in so that might shroud my opinion of this place nnHowever let us step back a minute I ordered a steak though I was not in the mood for a steak I was however in the mood for some type of Italianpasta dish and considering this is an Italian restaurant I was in good hands The prices of the pasta dishes however seemed too low so I asked whether these were entree size dishes or appetizers and it turns out the latter disappointment Why not offer an entree size dish I suppose in hindsight I could have ordered two of the little dishes nnBack to the steak I ordered the steak medium which I clarified was to be just to the right of red just turning pink What I got was the other end of pink on its way to gray I did not return the steak since I was in a large group and did not want to slow down the pace of the meal nnThe sides looked good I tasted the Cauliflower Au gratin and the Mashed Potatoes Both sides looked tastier than they actually tasted The mashed potatoes even had a poached egg on top which you could burst the yolk to mix in the potatoes However this was more for presentation as I did not really taste the richness I had expected Either that or the potatoes lacked any richcreamy element that the yolk brought up to ground level nnThe service was on the better side I would give the service stars Loss of star for empty glasses and slow delivery of bread and check a bunch of small things like that nnI would not go back Though this would be the best steakhouse in many midsize cities there are too many other options in Vegas
