As the 5-stars indicate up top, this really is \"Woohoo! As good as it gets!\" This, my friends, ain't no Olive Garden. Let me break it down for ya:\n\nBartolotta is a beautiful restaurant in the most beautiful hotel in The Vegas! Waiting for your reserved table isn't too bad when there is a de la Renta store down the hall and jewelry stores galore to \"just walk through\" with your date. We had an 8:15 Tuesday night reservation, but requested an outdoor cabana, so we were prepared to wait a while. We waited a little longer than was comfortable (girls dressed to kill in sky high heels cannot wait longer than 30 minutes!!), but soon enough the reason for our wait came walking up the Bartolotta marble staircase-- Oh excuse me but Lisa Kudrow is here! Not that she would take a picture with us but that is a different story...\n\nWe were finally seated at our BFF Lisa's cabana table, gawked at the baller \"sculptural poolscape\" view, and soaked up the info that the last butt impressions in our seats were made by multi-millionaires and prayed for some good kind of wealth by osmosis. A supermodel I didn't recognize sat two cabanas away, as well. ANYWAYS. Our waiter Steve was very New York-y, obviously had given the same spiel a zillion times before, but was very knowledgeable about the menu and wine so that made up for the passe delivery. Wine, pasta appetizers, tap water, all fabulous.\n\nThen came the fishies. Bream and sea bass, amazing. Skillfully filleted and plated, wonderful wonderful taste. The \"side\" of random potatoes is lame but I guess you aren't paying for that, huh? Dessert was a shared trio of delicious and wonderful gelatos. Out of my wallet came about $400 (for 4 people).\n\nI am one of those people who is always happy to pay for excellent food, and this was certainly that. So much fun and definitely a night to remember. BEST PART: It was Cinco de Mayo week and some high rollers in a private room had hired a mariachi band to come play. Not part of the normal restaurant experience, granted, but it was so ridiculous to be AWESOME!
