Lots of buzz about this restaurant in the Wynn Las Vegas, headed by James Beard Foundation Award-winning chef Paul Bartolotta. DailyCandy remarks about Bartolotta Ristorante di Mare, "An outrageously impressive and delicious just-off-the-plane-from-Italy seafood. Don’t ask what that weird looking lobster is called. Just order it." In the attached, April 2010 FT travel review on Las Vegas, Peter Aspden provides similar accolades, "At the Wynn, Paul Bartolotta’s eponymous restaurant imports fish from Italy three to four times a week, and handles it with flair and care: its fritto misto is as good as it gets, and that includes the mother country’s snootiest establishments." [Financial Times]
