Our Inspector's Highlights
- A see-and-be-seen atmosphere, the buzz of a crowd and the classic songs of Frank Sinatra playing in the background add to this Las Vegas restaurant’s charm.
- Unlike other celebrity namesake restaurants, where you can sit virtually ignored, Sinatra has a top-notch waitstaff that is extremely attentive and as good as you’ll find on the Strip. Any and all needs are taken care of quickly, as if you’re actually a member of Frank’s Rat Pack.
- The menu at Four-Star Sinatra is pleasing for those who expect an Italian dining experience, but also includes enough choices for those wanting to go in a different dining direction.
- There are several tables at Sinatra that overlook a self-contained garden outside. The garden offers low, manicured bushes, hundreds of deep red flowers and a gigantic fireplace.
- The wine list is a reflection of Frank Sinatra himself, featuring both Italian and American wine. Sinatra offers many special and rare bottles, but one standout is the five-liter bottle of 2008 Sinatra Family Estate “Nothing But the Best” cabernet sauvignon — a limited edition offering with a glass-etched label signed by Nancy Sinatra.
