Good Pie is a multi award wining pizzeria with two locations. One is in Henderson and the one we tried is in Downtown in the Arts District of Las Vegas Nevada. Good Pie offers a variety of pizzas. They are known for their Grandma Pie (square crispy bottoms). They also offer Brooklyn Style Pizzas (thin crusts), Detroit (crispy squares), and Sicilian (thick and fluffy). It’s not on the menu but you can also get a variety of pizzas by the slice. You just have to walk up front and see what the offerings are.

On one side is a large bar and on the other side are booths and lots of photos of many grandmothers. In the back is the main kitchen.

We tried a few slices, a salad, and a fried pizza.

Grandma Slice – Mushrooms, Caramelized Onions, Cheese

Grandma – Upside Down Grandma – Extra Cheese, Double Sauce, Oregano, Pecorino

Greek Salad

My favorite was the Fried Pizza with Burrata Cheese – It’s fried and baked. Topped with a rich tomato sauce, fresh basil, parmesan, and extra virgin olive oil. I liked the delicate what seemed like light and not a heavy crust, the richer tomato sauce, the tastier cheese, and the fresh basil. It’s very different from most pizzas that I’ve tried. I heard that some people don’t like this pizza because it does cool off faster from the cold burrata cheese that is applied at the end.

Good Pie is Good and is Worth a Try!

Komex Fusion is a casual restaurant here in Vegas. They offer their spin on Mexican Foods with a Korean Touch. They’ve been featured in various publications and various television shows.

On this visit they offered various specials.

Whatever you order they start you off with a complimentary basket of chips and some tasty salsa.

Maybe you want to start out with an order of fried wontons.

You HAVE to get the bulgogi tostada because it’s FORKING delicious!

Here’s the Bulgogi tostada.

Or maybe try a few tacos –

Above is a chicken and fish taco.

Below is a pork belly taco.

My husband loves the bulgogi grilled cheese.

On anther visit he enjoyed the Bulstrami Burrito with fries inside.

This was FORKING enormous! But he enjoyed it.

Komex Fusion is Worth a Fork!

The George Sportsman’s Lounge is a 24/7 Elevated American Restaurant, Bar, and Gaming Type of place located in the Durango Hotel/Casino. It’s very large with a very large patio. (Below is part of the patio)

Inside is a large bar, a smaller bar and lots of GIANT BIG screen TVs and a variety of other seating.

We started out by sharing the Brussels Sprouts (balsamic glaze, shaved parmesan, and pecans).

The sprouts look good but are a little under today so they are hard. The glaze taste a bit strong today and all the cheese today is hard and sticking together……..Oh well

But both our mains were very good.

Salmon Salad (Nicely grilled to medium salmon, romaine, arugula, radish, asparagus, cucumber, tomatoes, orange, citrus vinaigrette, and feta cheese.)

The Hot Honey Chicken Macaroni and Cheese was also very good. (3 cheese cavatappu, fried buttermilk chicken, hot honey, crispy onions, and chives).

The George Sportsman’s Lounge is Worth a Try!

Lemongrass & Lime is an award wining Thai Restaurant with two locations in Las Vegas Nevada (Summerlin and the one I go to in Centennial Hills). They are a little different here and offer seasonal specials in addition to their regular menu.

We tried two of the specials.

Short Rib Dumpling are amazing and sit in a well made beef stock.

The Potato Scaled Cod in Green Curry Sauce is also wonderful. It’s all great and maybe the best green curry that you can find in Vegas.

My husband got his usual

Spicy Basil Combo

Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano is an award wining Northern Style Italian Restaurant located in Restaurant Row in the Venetian Hotel/Casino on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada.

The lunch and dinner menus are seasonal so they always change slightly.

Surprisingly we’ve tried the most impressive salmon dishes in Las Vegas here at Matteo’s.

It’s shaved and so fresh and served up with the just right embellishments.

Even more impressive are the salmon entrees.

This is what impressive salmon is – Cooked Medium -Medium-Rare with CRISPY and Seasoned skin. (above is a lunch salmon entree) (Below is a dinner entree Salmon) As of yet I have not found another restaurant that prepares salmon this masterful in Las Vegas.

Another impressive dish that is only occasionally on the dinner menu is the Ligurian Focaccia.

This was to die for –

The bread is really light as air and is a balloon sort of bread. It’s stuffed with creamy light Crescenza cheese and this one was topped with squash blossoms, asparagus, Italian parsley, and mushrooms.

And of course the hand made pastas and sausage are amazing.

Below is what we tried so –

Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano is Impressive and is Worth a Fork!

ai Pazzi Pizza by Chef Fabio Viviani recently opened in the food hall in Rampart Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas Nevada. At the time of my visit last Friday I was told that this is just a take out restaurant without seating on the day we went. (That might be changing because I saw them adding tables the next day?) We sat at the bar seats by ai Pazzi Pizza and were told to leave because they were bar seats for the restaurant. (but the next day I saw they let ai Pazzi Pizza there so I don’t know if they changed things or maybe it depends on who is working? anyways They offer a limited menu of 6 twelve inch pizzas, two salads, soft beverages, and take out beer.

I noticed that chef Fabio was seated next door at the Pearls Oyster Bar.

We came at an off time and we sat ourselves at one of the few tables across from ai Pazzi Pizza but you can’t count (at this time) on getting a seat anywhere.

We tried a Pesto Pomodoro Pizza (mozzarella, pesto, tomatoes, raw onion, parmesan)

and a OG Salica (pomodoro, fontina, provolone, sausage, peppers, olives, red onions, roasted garlic, and oregano)

Of course both pizzas were delicious and both were thin and crisp.

At the time of my visit it wasn’t clear on the website that this was a take out only restaurant. Perhaps that will change in the near future?
