Caramella has established itself as one of the premier Las Vegas Strip Italian dining experiences in a very short amount of time. From the dishes themselves to the atmosphere, service and amazing views from the patio, Caramella has not only fit right in with the Vegas vibe, it’s creating one all of its own.

While enjoying the playful yet elegant decor, highlighted by sconces that look like monkeys reading newspapers, start with one of the sterling signature libations here, from the Dirty Caramella, made with Tito’s vodka, Dolin dry vermouth, pickle brine, cipollini onions and basil, to the Hustle, made with The Botanist gin, melon, lime, chamomile honey and Fever-Tree elderflower tonic.

Can’t-be-beat appetizers include veal Parmigiano meatballs in marinara sauce, beef tartare with cornichons, Dijon and egg yolk, and marinated tomato caprese, perfect for vegetarians.

Then move onto great mains like chicken alla diavola, served with cherry peppers, olives and Calabrian chili, center-cut lamb chops, served with roasted garlic and tomato, or 14-ounce New York strip, perfect with jumbo lump crab and Calabrian hollandaise. Sides include Caramella fries, mascarpone creamed spinach, and cannellini beans and escarole. Yum!

For dessert, highlights include the citrus-custard budino with pirouette cookies, tiramisu with ladyfinger sponge, mascarpone and espresso, and New York-style cheesecake.
