Nobody Talks About This Italian Celebrity Chef On The Strip, So We Will
A Friend of Frankly Vegas foodandwine77 recommended Scarpetta to us several years back. Smack dab in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, we wondered how this seemingly low-key haven of Italian tastiness evaded our attention.
Maybe it's because the Cosmopolitan has offered so many food choices, ranging from the tasty Momofuku headed by a controversial celebrity chef, to their Vegas buffet version of tastiness, Wicked Spoon.
Our experiences in this video were captured during a time when, up until recently, nearly all marketing for Scarpetta avoided using the words "upscale" or any semblance or pretension of "fine dining."

    My family is Cantonese and I’ve lived in Hong Kong / Guangzhou / SF Bay Area most of my life. Certainly understand that food tastes are subjective, but I’d highly recommend returning to this place. The service has improved significantly since opening. Also while expensive, the dim sum and other dishes I’ve tried here far exceed other options such as Tim Ho Wan and Ping Pang Pong. The preparation at Palette is much more contemporary compared to those restaurants and may not be for all. However, from my experience eating here on several occasions, the food quality is on par with the Dim Sum you will find in Richmond and the SF Bay Area - likely the best you will find in Chinatown Las Vegas.

    Nice review! Appreciated your critical comments and things to watch out for. Prices seem reasonable, given average cut of beef at the grocery now is ~$14/lb here in Vegas. And you get all the fresh seafood and other items included with excellent service. Anything on the strip would be 2-3x the price for less. 888 Japanese (~$40) or most AYCE sushi places like Neko ($30) give you good value as well for those more cost conscious.

    In this video he talks about this place palette tea lounge and Dim-Sum,and when I go to a Asian place I won't pay for hot tea,and although the food looks appealing, and the presentation, the flavors don't tell me the whole story, and although the menu is not long, I don't like ordering Dim Sum off a menu, rather I am used to the waitress walking around with there carts,but this place doesn't look appealing, other than the decor, and they don't have traditional Chinese foods, rather more like CHINESE/AMERICAN STYLE, as I like traditional styles, simple and simplicity but looks can be deceiving, but that's OK, because I don't plan on flying to Vegas just for the food, and I don't gamble

    • @franklyvegas
      @franklyvegas 2 месяца назад

      Dimsum places which still serve on carts are few and far between to find nowadays. I recently found one in an area of Southern California not usually associated with dimsum, that was surprisingly good. But that was a rare find.

    25:35 I went to the one in Chicago and it was disappointing. First of all the wait is super long, it took us 30 min to get on the waiting list and it said it would be an additional 15-30 min but we ended up waiting another 2 hours. If I knew the real wait time we would have gone to another restaurant. When ordering on the ipad, some of our orders didn't make it to the kitchen and we would have to reorder it, wasted so much time because you only get 90 minutes. The food was okay, Korean bbq is way better for the price. We were going to get the membership but after everything we went through the family said that they didn't need to ever go back. Charging full price for little kids is not worth it. Next time I'll buy A5 Wagu at Costco and have some time left in the day.
