 The centerpiece of Caesars Forum Shops’ first phase and named for Rome’s Trevi Fountain, this eatery’s spacious patio is enhanced by the sight and sounds of Caesars’ glorious fountains and statuary that are photo ops for visitors and locals alike. Featured in the dining room are a flashy bright orange cylindrical chandelier, a massive wine rack built into one wall, a 27-seat bar and an open kitchen. Among signature dishes are the calamari fritti appetizer served with a tomato-caper sauce, and the chicken penne salad---field greens tossed with grilled chicken, artichoke hearts, kalamata olives and penne pasta in a rosemary and Dijon dressing. We like the signature Romano chicken---flash-fried Romano-crusted breast of chicken with a Gorgonzola cream sauce, wilted spinach and mushrooms. Vegetarians will like the pizza topped with Gorgonzola, Fontina and Parmesan cheeses and oven-roasted tomatoes. Among specialty pastas is lasagna layered with zesty meat and ricotta and mozzarella cheeses. Beef tenderloin with red wine mushroom sauce and veal piccata come with garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. The patio’s display case of gelati (tiramisu and pistachio among the many flavors) and fruity sorbets is a winner---save room for a scoop or two of the refreshing treats. Dinner reservations are accepted for parties of five or more.
