Salvatore's - Summerlin

This is the second time I've come to Salvatore's intending to order their seafood ravioli and both times ending up with something chosen from the specials menu. Specials here are not something that occur the same way each week. For a week, sometimes less, the chef has 3 dishes on the specials menu included in each regular menu. They don't repeat for perhaps 6 months or a year so that's why it deserves special attention. After looking at the specials, I ordered the following: Italian wedding soup, Maiale matura (pork loin on a bed on diced apple, currants, fennel, caramelized onion, and topped with a cider sauce. For dessert, I got the chef's pineapple cheesecake. After being seated, I was brought iced tea and their standard bread basket. I'd had the wedding soup before and liked to so much so I went with that again. It is very good. The pork loin was really special. The chopped apple and currants made this a delightful dish for winter. The pork was very tender. I was going to get a tartuffo for dessert but they were out so I went with the cheesecake. The thing I liked about this was that it was not standard cheesecake topped with pineapple. Rather, it was cheesecake that had pineapple flavoring infused in the soft filling. There was the slightest amount of crumb crust so it was very enjoyable pineapple flavored cheesecake. This is almost a five star review except for an odd service happening. When a runner brought my main course, instead of picking up the soup dish, he waited until I picked it up and held it until he placed the main course in its place and then took the soup dish from my hands. Very odd and there were several seconds that went by where he just stood there holding my main course plate. Salvatore's is definitely my favorite restaurant at the Suncoast and I'll return.

Oh, my goodness! This was only my second visit in a year but service at this restaurant is still some of the worst! Went with a pre-reserved group of 24, sat at two lovely long tables. The server arrived and took drink orders...they were delivered a few minutes later and then everything went downhill! Dinner was ordered (each table had a different person taking the orders , our table ordered first and it took around 30 minutes for food to be delivered. Our other table...they hadn't been served by the time we all finished and cleared away! Server NEVER offered Parmasan cheese for the dinners (the other table had a bowl of shredded parm on their table, which nice upscale Italian restaurant doesn't shred the cheese on your dishes? Server NEVER came back for more drinks, where we all waiting and waiting. After dinner the server NEVER came to see if we wanted coffee/dessert. And when we asked him about it he said he asked, not one at our table were ever asked or offered! And still, our other table wasn't served! There was also another group table behind us...when we all left the restaurant they were still waiting (and had ordered around when we got served! And when we went to talk to the manager, we were told he was cooking in the kitchen! For a restaurant of this caliber this service is totally unacceptable, they should've comped EVERYONE for a drink/dessert/something! We will NEVER go to this restaurant again...there are hundreds of great Italian restaurants in Vegas...why give our business to one that doesn't seem to care?

3 words to describe our experience last night. SHAME ON YOU! Terribly disappointed with EVERY aspect of the service for our group! Food was very good, however if you do not make your patrons feel welcome and appreciated for being there, you are contradicting the price of your food! I will NOT be coming back.... 0 rating at best!

First time for 2 of us 2nd for other person in party. We tried the mixed steamed clams/mussels. The broth was so good we brought it home and used it for a 2nd pasta meal! The clams were excellent the mussels were extra large, so rather tough but not as bad as some we have had elsewhere. We also shared a mixed bean vegetable, which was also excellent. Their tomato/caprese salad was just ok the malt vinegar was too mild for our taste the cheese did not have much flavor. The other person in our part had risotto, which she said was excellent enough for a 2nd meal from leftovers. Their bread is also very good. Although their website says they are open until 10pm, they closed at 9pm the night we were there.

This is my to-go order. $20 for six tiny meatballs and one cup of soup maybe for the two bowls. Y'all need to Serve the same food to/go as you do in the restaurant because I'm paying the same price. Ugh I'm so disappointed everything we had was short.
