The ambiance outside was great. We came on a Fri night with a reservation on a holiday weekend and we were still seated within 5 min of our arrival. \n\nOur waitress was not only knowledgeable about the food, but very kind and on top of it, she didn't hover over the table which makes me nuts. \n\nI ordered the risotto (vegetarian) and it was so delicious. My mom ordered the Pennoni Al Ragu and also loved it. The serving was quite large for both of our dishes which was nice because when you pay a lot for a meal, I feel like you are always served small portions. \n\nNext time I go to Vegas, I'm going back to Canaletto
