Las Vegas has changed (at least temporarily) because of COVID-19. Casinos are operating at reduced capacity, numerous health and safety measures are in place, and strip resorts are offering affordable hotel rates as the pandemic has significantly reduced visitor numbers.
Many locals were quick to share the view that those venturing to Southern Nevada now have more peaceful demographics. The fact that Darden Restaurants, Olive Garden's parent company, plans to spend millions to integrate the Italian restaurant chain into the strip proved that idea to some people.
Those who eat at OG while on vacation will probably return to their hotel rooms by 9pm and complain because Bellagio is not serving free continental breakfasts," one local responded to a Las Vegas Local tweet about Olive Garden.
Eater Las Vegas reported that Olive Garden plans to spend $3.75 million to renovate the third floor of 3767 Las Vegas Boulevard S. Recently, a new target opened on the second floor. The site is where the former Smith & Walensky steakhouse stood. The restaurant closed in 2017 and reopened inside The Grand Canal Shops in May 2019.
Las Vegas is home to 26 restaurants designated as Four Diamonds or Five Diamonds by AAA. Located just off the MGM Grand Casino floor, Joe ̈ Robuchon is consistently ranked as the best restaurant.

But we live in Las Vegas. We have options. So the next time you want to take your family for a big night or take the special person somewhere more personal, don't be afraid to pass on the OG for a 'Only Vegas meal,'" the outlet added.
Scott Roeben, who runs a popular Vital Vegas Twitter account, recently selected some of his favorite Italian restaurants. These include Esther's Kitchen, Nora, Pizza Rock, Carmine at the Caesars Palace Forum Shops, Buddy V's at The Venetic, and Mercato della Pescheria.
OG Defended
In my 10 years of living in New York City/North Jersey, I have become quite spoiled for authentic Italian food. Now back in south-central Pennsylvania, I admit it's hard to find legitimate Italian food. (The short trek to Little Italy in Baltimore is worth it).
But Olive Garden has a purpose, and in 2016 I won one of those "Never-Ending Pasta Pass" cards that offers nine weeks of all-you-can-eat pasta, soup, salad, and bread.
And while Las Vegas casinos offer some of the best restaurants in the world, there are locals who believe OG really has the time and place, including Streep. 카지노사이트 모음
"We have Giordano, Denny, Outback, and Chili on the strip. While it's incredibly amazing that these places can stay open, that may be proof that a large percentage of strip visitors have much less adventurous taste than we assumed," commented a Las Vegas local reader.
