Editorial Review for Mimmo Ferraro's Restaurant – by John Curtas
In Short
Mimmo Ferraro's father, Gino, made a name for himself at this original location beginning in 1985; today the Ferraro influence stretches from one Vegas suburb to another. The upscale casual dining area features columns, foliage and a prominent wine cabinet. The restaurant's signature is the Milanese classic: Osso bucco--a "bone in the hole" veal shank served over thick, eggy noodles in a veal sauce. Other popular dishes include gnocchi, lamb chops and plenty of pastas.

I only write reviews when something is either really great or really horrible and this was really horrible. First off, they had a menu outside with prices that must have been a lunch menu because the prices inside were about triple those prices. But, my friends and I aren't afraid to splurge and we were ready for a great Italian meal. Well, where do I start? How about being charged twice for drinks. We were going to start with ordering several appetizers and then split them between us five guys. We started to order appetizers and after ordering the tomato and mozzarella plate, the waiter said he could do better than that. Fine, so we ordered the tomato and mozzarella along with two things that he suggested. Well, instead of bringing three plates of separate appetizers like we ordered, he brought each of us an individual plate with all the stuff on it. We thought this was great, until we realized at the end, when the bill was delivered, that they charged us for each individual instead of just for each appetizer. Just the simple tomato and mozzarella was over $50. But, wait, it gets worse. Not one of us thought our food was anywhere close to being worth what we paid for it, but I ordered lamb chops that were tougher than a Clint Eastwood cowboy character. For two, (yes, TWO) small lamb chops and some unimpressive stack of vegetables, it was $44. While I'm not opposed to spending money for a great meal, this was far, FAR from being even 'okay'. The lamb chops were horribly overdone and the last one was so tough and over-cooked and dry that I actually didn't finish it. The bill was astronomical and we felt totally taken. The food was not great and the cost was way beyond reasonable for such average food. (And in the case of my lamb chops, horrible). This is by far, BY FAR, the worst restaurant in terms of food to cost ratio that I have EVER been to. And I've been to some nice places. We felt cheated and taken.
Pros: None.
Cons: Food was average to horrible. Totally inedible lamb chops. Chew on your shoe.... it'll taste better. Prices well beyond reason for the experience.
