Has anybody eaten there recently? I have been to the Rao's in East Harlem and thought it was fabulous.

We have a reservation this Tuesday and just want to make sure we should keep it.

Thanks.

People say that the food is the same so if you enjoyed the original, you will like this too.

Is it as hard to get into the one in NY as they say or is that just a lot of hype?

I just saw their sauce in my supermarket yesterday for the first time! Boy, was it expensive.

Get the spicy jar sauce. It's excellent. The waiter we had at Rao's in Vegas relocated from the NYC restaurant. He was at Rao's NYC for like 20 years.

Why is everyone so scared to eat in Vegas? It's not your last meal (God willing).

Hey Snidley,

Who's scared about eating in Vegas? We love Vegas.

I just wanted to know if Rao's is worth my time.

Eat at Rao's. Don't eat at Battista's. You can thank me later.

Raos is great - try and get a table on the patio overlooking Caesars pools.

I was disappointed. I thought it would be outstanding but I only thought it was okay. Their chicken dish was pretty good but I thought B&B was noticeably better overall. Even for meatballs I like Marotano's better at the Rio. I hope you will have a better experience.
