I love Giada. I come whenever I am in Vegas, it is the perfect spot to escape the madness, enjoy delicious food in a beautiful space! Very much enjoyed Giada's Sangria, Arugal salad with prosciutto and candied lemon, and the Branzino was perfectly cooked.

My wife and I shared octopus and short ribs, which were both incredible. My brother-in-law and niece shared clams, which were a little bit too salty and pasta bolognese, which was great. The wines by the glass were a little bit pricey, but refreshing. Service was timely and friendly in the ambience was lively and uncrowded a very satisfying experience.
