This old-school Italian eatery offers live entertainment nightly from 6 p.m., with a rotating lineup of talented local performers performing "Rat Pack"-era standards and popular hits. The menu features a gluten-free pizza option and gluten-free pasta, for those with intolerance issues, plus vegetarian items including "meatless" meatballs. Complimentary limo service is provided from/to hotels on the Strip (remember to tip your driver!) and Mondays feature 50% off all bottles of wine, while all pizzas are 50% off after 11 p.m. (dine-in only). Video poker is available at the bar. Note that this restaurant is closed on Tuesdays.
This restaurant was reviewed in the August 2005 LVA; some of the information contained in this review may no longer be accurate. We’ve written about several local Italian “joints” in Las Vegas, including Nora’s, Capozzoli’s, and the Bootlegger. Casa Di Amore is another joint, but it has some unique extras going for it. For one, this is a bona fide 24-hour dining spot. Although special menus appear late-night and at lunch and there’re bound to be times when something’s not available, just about everything on the menu can usually be ordered day and night. That includes pizzas ($12-$18) that rate with the city’s best. Least impressive in our audits have been the basic pastas. You might want to try one of the meat or fish dishes, including an outstanding osso buco for $28 or what we hear is an equally impressive cioppino for $30. Evenings feature live entertainment beginning at 7 (good jazz groups and the like). The music extends past midnight, when an after-shift late-night crowd shows up. The decor is old Vegas. The patrons are old New York, Chicago, and Detroit. There’s even a decent slot club with daily hot-card promotions and potential free-play vouchers via the mail. The video poker schedules are in the 97% ranne gets you a comp from a good player’s menu, plus your drinks.
