Fodor's Review:

In this intimate space with red leather chairs, white napery, an open kitchen, and a long, swanky bar, fans of Italian cooking encounter a menu that mixes the traditional with the innovative. It's one of the few Wynn restaurants that, while still upscale, won't cost you a king's ransom, yet a dinner here rivals just about any fine Italian restaurant on the Strip. There's a long list of chilled and hot appetizers, from red snapper carpaccio to fried artichokes with lemon-caper sauce. Specialties include seared roasted monkfish in parchment with artichokes, fingerling potatoes, and tomato-lemon confit; braised rabbit with sweet English peas and handmade pappardelle pasta; and goat's-milk-ricotta ravioli with brown butter, walnuts, sage, and balsamic syrup.

What is it about The Wynn? Almost all the food here tastes too good to be true! And yes, the same can be said of Stratta. (Alex Stratta took the reins of what used to be Corsa Cucina, so it's now named after the new chef in charge.)

I finally had a chance to try it earlier this month. If you ever crave a taste of your all-time favorite red-checkered tablecloth neighborhood Italian hole-in-the-wall, order the eggplant parmigiana! It's so hearty, yet so tasty. It almost felt like home, except that this upscale bistro took the flavors to an even higher level.

Oh, and don't forget dessert! Order a tiramisu and take a ride to heaven, if only for a few minutes. After a few bites of that and a few more sips of wine, I finished dinner VERY happy and very ready for my long and crazy night at The Strip.
