02 / Tonight

Why go tonight.

Arrive in the 3:00 to 5:00 PM aperitivo window for a drink and a turn at the salumi station before dinner service builds, then move into handmade pasta once the dining room opens. Best for couples and groups wanting chef-driven Italian with handmade pasta and a full bar; skip it if the group needs speed, low prices, or a casual red-sauce room.

Locals' angle

It replaced a 24-year Puck mainstay

Carama took over the space Wolfgang Puck's Lupo held for 24 years; longtime Vegas diners should know the menu and room are a full reset, not a refresh, with a more personal, mother-inspired Italian direction.
