Editorial Review for Il Fornaio at the New York New York Hotel – by Ryan Slattery
In Short
People sit at a booth, table or stool and enjoy an eye-opening European-blend coffee with a fresh, plump muffin that mushrooms out of its wrapper. Gigantic cinnamon rolls are swirled generously in frosting; scones bulge with blueberries or raisins. A slice of the amaretto pound cake is sure to satisfy. For a quick lunch, stop by and order one of the hearty sandwiches and add a Caesar or pasta salad.

During our recent vacation to Las Vegas, my wife and I tried Il Fornaio, based on favorable reviews we read on the Internet. What a disappointment! This place is the Olive Garden at twice the price. The bread was not even close to the quality we can get at dozens of Italian bakeries in Philadelphia. My lasagne was tasteless, meager and the sauce tasted like it was from a jar. My wife had penne in a blush or vodka sauce which had congealed into a state of sticky, unappetizingness. Our Maragaritas (at $11.00 each) were a blend of amaretto and normal margarita ingredients. I'll give points for originality but not for taste. I understand this chain is from the West Coast. I can only hope that Californians have better Italian restaurants than Il Fornaio.
Pros: Ambience (restaurant is in the casino) is nice.
Cons: The food was less than mediocre.

My wife and I stay at NYNY quite often and the first time we had brunch (breakfast) I ordered UOVA ALLA BENEDETTINA ie eggs benedict and I have to say this was quite possible the best eggs benedict I have ever had. Super service with outstanding coffee...what more could you ask for? After experiencing this we decided on diner the next day at Il Fornaio. I ordered the authentic pizza, which reminded me of my time in Sicily and the wife ordered the linguine dish with all the seafood, both were very very good for the reasonable price we paid. Why pay top dollar at the chic Italian places when Il Fornaio is just as good. The seating is best on the patio as it gets a little crowded inside. The wine was reasonable and the service let us enjoy our meal. We are going back in October
