Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Excalibur

My wife and I reserved a table at Ferraro’s for Valentine’s Day. It was a busy night, but from the valet escorting my wife to the lobby, to our wait service, amd food, it was a perfect dining experience. The lighting was calming, the atmosphere was energetic but we also never felt ignored from the staff. Whether it was refilling our drink, to replacing our plates and utensils for our next course, it all flowed nicely. The quality of the food was evident from the appetizer course, where our Arancini balls were cheesy and flavored with truffle oil. Our salad, the Mimmo was light and flavorful with bits of mozzarella and tomato in a light dressing. We enjoyed the gnocchi pasta which was tender and almost melted on our mouths with a nice pistachio pesto sauce. We opted for the salmon, which had a great texture and sauce that was accompanied by grilled asparagus. Our second meat entree was the airline chicken with a delicious broth and sautéed spinach. The meat was tender and juicy and the skin was nicely charred. Lastly, we finished the meal with a tiramisu dessert that was light and the perfect way to end the night.

We had a great night celebrating my birthday and anniversary at Il Fornaio! The food recommended by the serve, Linguini and seafood grill were so delicious! We were given free dessert due to the celebrations we were having! The price is very affordable! I highly recommend Il Fornaio! ❤️

An excellent experience from beginning to end. The service was outstanding, and the food was delicious. The house-made sourdough bread was the best bread service any of our party could recall having at any restaurant (definitely indulge in the accompaniments), and the fresh made pasta was perfect. It's no wonder reservations fill up fast!

My colleague and I had breakfast here on our last day in town before going home. He had heard lovely things from other attendees at the conference we were at, and since we already had dinner plans on Wednesday night, we decided to eat here for breakfast. I’m glad we made a reservation, because by the time we left the place was packed. Our waitress was fantastic, she even brought me a glass of ice so I could drink my Diet Coke. (Only Pepsi at this resort). I had one of the crêpes of the day, bananas, foster, drizzled with Nutella. And my colleague also had crêpes of the day, but he selected raspberry and lemon curd.  it is a sizable plate of food, I was amazed that my colleague finished his, I could only get halfway. We also both had a coffee drink, I requested a vanilla latte and he had regular coffee, both were outstanding. And our waitress was the absolute best! If you are in Las Vegas and need a breakfast place, this is absolutely five stars.

This was our first time at the Golden Steer. There were six in our party and we all had a great time. From the greeting from the hostess to our wait staff, we were greeted with smile and a no problem attitude. The table side Caesar salad was absolutely delicous and my filet mignon was cooked to perfection. And I cannot rave enough on how delicous the special mac and cheese was and I am not a fan of mac and cheese but this changed my mind. The kahlua creme brulee was the best way to end our meal. I highly recommend the Golden Steer for food and service. April
