    The restaurant is lovely. We were very disappointed though as when booking we didn’t realise the restaurant closed at 10pm. Not sure why they would take a reservation for a party at 9. We felt very rushed. We had about 60 seconds between starter and mains and then the bill as we had finished our mains. Was such a shame. The portions are very big so would have been good to have a break between courses. We struggled to eat the mains so quickly after the starters. We had booked it as our evening out and spent more time getting ready than we were in there. Such a shame as it could have potentially been a great night. Had we spent more time there it would have been worth the money but at nearly $90 a head it wasn’t worth the little time we had.

    This was a gift from our friends. When we arrived 10 minutes early for our reservation, we were told that they were booked? After waiting for 18 minutes, we almost left as many walk-ins were being seated? Very disappointing and most likely we won’t be back.

    Your prices really went up and web site is not accurate. No salad with pasta is not right especially given the price. Then charge 11.00 for shrimp and it was way overdone tough and the taste was not right.server said I'll tell the kitchen but no adjustment to the bill we've been there 5 times before and we have some friends coming in on Monday and I had reservations for all of us for Tuesday and I canceled it.

    We had spaghetti & meatball and chicken parm. Both were excellent. Absolutely love the sauce. The lighting is dim, which is terrific for the ambience, however, it made reading the menu a little challenging.

    What a surprise to come back to Las Vegas and discover something NEW! Capo’s was referred to us by someone we met at the airport as a “must do.” The experience began the moment we arrived. We knocked on the entry door, and were surprised when a hidden panel sprang open and a loud voice barked “what do you want?” Once inside, the darkened restaurant, we were escorted to a large table near the stage. The decor is very reminiscent of every mafia movie you’ve ever seen, and the crooner belting out, Frank Sinatra, Tony, Bennett, and Dean Martin songs completed the ambience. Our waitress, “Vixen,” was attentive, funny and made us feel like real VIPs. And the food, AMAZING. Whatever you do, don’t forget to order the meatballs. Overall, I have to agree. Capos is a “Must Do” dining experience when in Las Vegas.

    This is a very busy restaurant and hard to get reservations. But we finally got a reservation set and when we arrived, we sat at the bar to wait for our table. We were then notified that there was a plumbing issue that could take over three hours to fix. We did have a drink at the bar and the bartender was nice enough to comp our drinks I will say the staff was very nice and polite but unfortunately we never got to try the food. we will be back.

    This place is a really cool throwback with a ratpack meets the mafia vibe that serves great food! Service is prompt and friendly and the entertainment fits perfectly with the theme. Definitely worth it to get off the strip and experience something that the locals enjoy.

    I loved the aesthetic while saying that I was extremely disappointed in some of the aspects the first one not stating the cost of the daily special, it would have been great if the guests were advised of that part and not surprised when the check is dropped off at the table, the food was okay at most, the lobster tail was overcooked and I could not get my servers attention long enough to let them know ALSO my card was charged more than the original amount of the ticket.

    Lesson learned. Never take a restaurant recommendation from someone under 30. We regularly visit Las Vegas, primarily for shows and the best dining within a short plane ride from Los Angeles. We have had so many great restaurant experiences, however this was not one of them. We were told the "speakeasy" experience would be entertaining; pushing a buzzer was followed by a sliding door with a request for the password to get in. Cute and campy. But that was it as we were lead to the worst possible table, in front for the noisy bar and kitchen, so dark that it was near impossible to read the menu - even more difficult because our table light and candle went out twice. We looked forward to the crooner, but were so far removed we couldn't hear a sound. Our waiter was overly attentive as he rushed us into menu choices as if he was in a hurry for us to leave. My wife sensed the bad vibe and wanted to leave before ordering but I insisted on giving the evening a try, much to my regret. The dinner, lasagna, though an ample serving, came cold. To their credit, instead of just warming the meal, it was replaced and this time warm. The food was adequate but nothing much beyond a typical Italian family restaurant - think Spaghetti Factory with a dark, campy mobster theme. With so many great dining choices in Las Vegas, many on strip malls like Capo, we had to try it, especially after the rave reviews by our 30 something relative. But what is novel and fun to a novice diner is simply campy and disappointing to an older, experienced diner. Needless to say, we will never return. If you are looking for fine dining with a cool theme off the strip, try the Golden Steer, where you can feel an age of early Las Vegas and the great crooners of the era as well as be served by professional waiters bringing great food. The reservation was made on Open Table. I believed that to be available on this site the restaurant had to have a level of excellence. Obviously, not so.

    It was another amazing experience. Cannot wait to go back. Service can be hit or miss…the first time it was spectacular the second time eh it was okay, but the food made up for where service was slightly lacking. Can’t wait to go back to get more calamari that is delectable and lasagna equally as good.
