I just came back from Vegas today (4/21/08). I?m picky when it comes to food, especially Italian cuisine (I also consider myself an amateur chef). I lived in Italy for awhile, and I am somewhat snobbish when it comes to quality. This place is excellent! My father and I both had the fillet stuffed with foie gras (big enough for two), and the tomato & mozzarella salad for an appetizer. My fiancee had the linguini with lobster and shrimp, and my aunt had the sausage ravioli.
For all who unfortunately rated this restaurant as poor, you have no idea what good food tastes like (maybe the seafood buffet at the Rio would be a better choice?which is amazing by the way). I was in heaven at Zeffirino?s. My father and I both said that it was the best fillet we ever had?no joke. The buffalo mozzarella and tomatoes were unlike anything I ever tasted. The olive oil they used was simply the finest quality available. The linguini with lobster was fresh (huge pieces of fresh lobster?and I?m from Boston, so I know my seafood), and the sauce was amazing. Their ravioli may have been the best I?ve ever tasted as well.
For all who unfortunately received bad service/food: maybe it was how you dressed? This place is business casual, not shorts or jeans (I saw some people wander in from the strip?how rude of them to wear a swimsuit and sunglasses in the restaurant). The bill for the four of us (including 7 alcoholic drinks, no dessert?we were stuffed) was $236.00. Not bad for an amazing meal.
I?ve never written anything like this (generally I couldn?t be bothered). But after seeing a few disgruntled gamblers take a stab at this fine establishment, I just had to say something. Hats off to Zeffirino?s for their ambiance, service, and great food!
Pros: ambiance, service, food
Cons: a bit expensive

Well...all good things must come to an end?? We hope not. Our first experience with Zeffirinos was about 2 years ago and the experience was amazing. Service, quality and atmosphere had us saying wow. We went back for a celebration about 2 years later and the economy has taken another victim. The restaurant was dead and the quality went down as well. The waiter was telling us they can't stay alive much longer and maintain the expectations with the lack of revenue...its a bad cycle to be in...fingers crossed that it gets back to the once fabulous place...excelled sea bass excellent soups excellent seafood and northern Italian everything...home made limoncello mmmmm
Pros: atmosphere
Cons: price and stiff waiters

Lots of stuff to choose from on the menu and the portions were huge. I don't think I finished an entire meal (ate here multiple times during our stay). The french toast with fresh fruit is delicious (and served on a platter - you better be hungry!). My husband raved about the eggs benedict and reubens. Our drinks were never empty and the staff was friendly. Had to wait for a table one morning (CONEXPO was in full swing) and but it was a quick wait. Do need better ventilation for the stupid cigarette smoke.
Pros: friendly staff
Cons: breakfast pricey, somewhat smokey

Ok, so underneatha ll the glitz and glamour, this is a diner/coffee shop/ It is open 24 hours and the portions are very good sizes. I am tellign you to ge tthe hot dogs because they get their weiners from Pink's. This is important to know because in Los Angeles, people will stand in line for over an hour at 2 in the morning for one of them. So if you are here, know that you can do no wrong with the hot dog.

I went to Zaba's yesterday because I wanted to try a new Mexican restaurant. For that reason, I was very disappointed. Everything about the place made me feel like I was in a Chipotle. The menu is similar, and the menu items are nearly the same. The sort of "factory line" way the food is prepared is the same. The tables are situated the same. Even the metal decorations hanging from the ceiling are the same. I would only go there again if I'm in the mood for Chipotle but Zaba's is closer.
Pros: Food is decent
Cons: Nothing unique, feels like a Chipotle clone

This is the freshest food I have had in vegas! The staff is friendly and the food is made in front of me, I'm telling them the way I want it. I also like the fact that Zaba's is a local company and not a big chain. The other Burrito joints in town don't compare to Zaba's!
Pros: fast, fresh, friendly

On Sundays and Thursdays they have a fajita special that is out of this world. The food is great, decor is very nice and the service was outstanding. I would recomend this restaurant based on quality, service, and price.
PROS: Good price, food, service and margaritas.
CONS:
