    We were visiting Las Vegas and a friend highly recommended The Bootlegger. So glad we ventured off the strip to try it. I had the chicken parmigiana and my husband had the Carbonara pasta. Paired with a glass of Cabernet, both dishes were excellent. The Lorraine salad that we shared was wonderful too!

    Bootleggers is by far the best Italian family owned restaurant in Las Vegas. There is over a 100 years of experience in this place alone. The servers! Spectacular! The food! UNMATCHED! The live music! SUPER CLASSY! Doug is amazing on the keys and his voice is laden in silk! Mark is the most charismatic, charming and sophisticated server you will ever meet. He is also a Veteran! He served our country and he continues to serve his community! Bootleggers is amazing w even more to offer if you ask! Close your eyes, enjoy your friends and family and say YES!!! I’m in for life!

    I have been a long time costumer of Bootlegger since 1972 when I moved to Las Vegas. From Venetian on Sahara Ave. to Bootlegger on Eastern Ave. and of course now on LV Blvd. My favorite Italian restaurant. Food is always good, so is the service and the atmosphere. Love this place.
