Not only is the food fantastic but the service is even better!! Michael and Laura have a hidden gem here and I highly recommend you try it out.
Great service and quality of food, I especially like the seafood pasta dish. Forget what its called but it has clams, muscles, crab meat, shrimp and its just awesome and delicious and can be shared with your group and you may still have to take some home cause the plate is huge. Chef Mike and Laura are very hospitable and they make you truly feel like you are at their house.
What a secret gem this is! Chef Mike made the night an experience. The food was amazing!! Big food portions, plenty of leftovers, staff were great and the garlic bread....so yum! You have to go.
Great place, I have been in Las Vegas for almost 40 years and this is one of the best Italian Restaurants I have been to. We were party of 6 and it was my mothers 95th birthday, they really treated her great. All of us loved our food, Chef Mike was great and the entertainment was fantastic. We will go back again and again. Thank you for a really memorable evening.

Top notch!! The best true Italian restaurant we have ever been to. Friendly owner greeted us at the door. Introduced himself and we felt like we were very welcomed. We were invited by friends that live in Vegas we were pleasantly surprised we will be back again. Thanks for making us feel welcomed Chef Michael. And Thanks for singing for us we enjoyed it and the piano player was awesome!! �
What a great place! Took my family of 9 there last night. If we did not order dessert the bill would have been $100 before tax and tip. We went a bit crazy on dessert because I felt like the food was half price. For $50 we got Frutta Di Mare - for 5. Eggplant Parm for $30 and another dish for $19. There was so much food and it was all AMAZING. The ambience is great. Owner is awesome. The place is a GRAND SLAM. We will be back OFTEN.

Would recommend this place to everyone who likes great food, fun atmosphere & supurb service!!!
What a great place for a great dinner. Food is excellent, wait staff is attentive. Owners Michael and Laura are the best�
Mike and his beautiful wife run an awesome place. Granddaughter Brittini took care of us during father’s day weekend. Lalo the head chef went all out with the food and came to our table to say hello. We Ordered an a family style Aunt Carmela the size of my car with everything in it. Linguini with clams very subtle and fresh taste. The chicken piccata was so juicy that I would recommend a bib. Desserts tiramisu cannoli and Anthony’s chocolate chalet like no other. To top it off Mike being the character he is made my 14 month old cry after serenading after serenading her with a wonderful song “baby face” but what a joy. Her first serenata didn’t go so well but we found a great family atmosphere looking forward to coming back for seconds ... thanks again; but Mike I wouldn’t sell my Dog for 525k hahah inside joke ... Torres/Faretta fam.
The food was excellent. The company was great . Music was to die for & the proprietor s Michael & Laura Leonetti was so great.
This place reminds me of many classic Italian restaurants in the Chicago area from my childhood.
Old school Italian is definitely the theme here!
Family style food and atmosphere.
Chef Mike did a bit of singing, of course, and he is great!
We will definitely be back. Highly recommended for a cool night out and some good old Italian food.
We also had the pleasure of hearing another amazing singer perform there the night we were there, Renee Hale.
It was the funnest atmosphere! We loved the entertainment - the singers and band were so fun! The lasagna and crab cakes were awesome! Plus, we left our debit card there and the immediately called me and told me. Thank you!
I had an absolutely amazing experience at this place! The food was outstanding, leaving me speechless. Every dish was a culinary masterpiece that I couldn't resist savoring. The entertainment provided was top-notch, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. The atmosphere of the restaurant was so warm and inviting, it made me feel right at home, as if I were in the comfort of my own mother's house.
UPDATE: My wife and I visited this restaurant for a second time on 8 Sep 2023 (5 years after our first visit) to see if the quality and service still matched up to the first visit, or if we just got lucky. Needless to say, the result was pretty identical, if not even better. The food was a little slower this time around, but our server, "Aunt Cheryl" did everything she could to keep us entertained and fed while we waited. Definitely one of the best servers we've had in a while in Las Vegas - truly remarkable. We ended up ordering the Frutti di Mare and Chicken Piccata which both entrees were wonderful. I thought I could finish the Frutti di Mare all by myself, and although I came close, I was indeed defeated. The live entertainment was great; Chef Mike surely knows how to keep people smiling and have a good time. His better half (Chef Laura), is phenomenal - from the time you walk in to the time you leave the restaurant, she makes you feel like you're part of their family. My review of this restaurant is the same; I highly recommend this place to everyone. Note: I added pictures to this review from this visit.
My family and I tried this place out for the first time in Sep 2018 timeframe and I realized today that I forgot to rate/comment on their business via Google - I did however, manage to rate/comment on Yelp. When we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and with the sounds of a live band. Apparently the band only plays 2 nights per week; we just got lucky that we arrived on one of those nights because the music was excellent. Now the food...it was outstanding. Our table had a mixture of seafood, polenta, and pasta - it was all very good. Also, did I mention that their bread and sauce were good? Well, it was outstanding too!!! They had an excellent wine selection and the service was beyond expectations. I recommend this place to all local residents to include anyone visiting Las Vegas. The food is great and if you can plan it, try to visit them on one of the live music nights. Recommend making reservations too because everyone knows this place rocks! Thanks for the wonderful experience.

WOW! What a blast. Great place to go to eat and be entertained! The food portions are super sized. This is a warning…..Go there with an empty stomach!! If you’re looking for that east coast Italian Mom and Pop dinner place…THIS IS IT!
Great LIVE entertainment every night that they are open.
What place these day does the owner himself (Michael) come over to you and greet you! That’s that old school flavor that is long forgotten about. But My Mothers House offers that!
If you live in vegas or just visiting. We highly recommend this place. This will be the highlight of your trip or hard day at work! Be ready to be entertained!
We've been here three times and every time it's been absolutely amazing.
Authentic Italian restaurant with family style meals and family-like atmosphere.
There's always been a live band playing when we are here but not sure if that's a regular thing.
Usually we make last minute reservations and have eaten in the outdoor patio area but this was our first time eating inside. INCREDIBLE.
The meals are great from the very first dish they put on your plate. You can taste the effort in every ingredient.
The people who come here are all about the atmosphere and will happily talk to you across and between tables. Chefs Mike and Laura walk around all night long and talk to guests.
You are never rushed and can stay as long as you like enjoying great food and great company.
This trip was especially amazing, cause Chef Mike took us out front to show us his Rolls Royce and gave us complimentary dessert! 😍 So sweet 🧁
Awesome, awesome, awesome!!!! The entertainment here is awesome! They play a full show, they get the audience involved, and the they tell some authentic stories. The food here is very good.
Heads up for preparation. You have to make a reservation. The place gets full pretty quick. It’s a little tight inside. If there was more room, I would have been dancing most of my time there. It does take a while to get your food because they make it to order and fresh. It took our food about 35 minutes before it was ready. They will do separate checks. I was with a party of 6. They charge a $7 entertainment fee, which is nothing for the awesome show they provide. I will visit again!!!!
We had crab cakes, lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, lobster ravioli, chicken piccata, shrimp scampi, and linguine with clams. They also served us salad and garlic bread. They gave us a small slice of pizza while we waited for our food. The presentation was beautiful!!!!
This place is more of a supper club than a simple restaurant. Fun memorabilia of the Rat Pack Days with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis jr and on and on. Even a Huge picture of Marilyn Monroe visible in the kitchen. Tables are set up in long rows so you get a chance to know your table neighbors. Owner Mike is the perfect host making the rounds checking on all the diners. He never stops and his interaction with guests seems very genuine. Loves to entertain the kids which certainly makes the adults happy. There was a singer belting oldies and a band on weekends. Only downside was the entrees were under seasoned, but the garlic bread was delicious and the cheesecake and tiramisu tasted like old world recipes . More than the food you really come for the entertaining atmosphere and experience.
Came across this place by accident, what a delightful surprise! The ambiance was so cute and fun. The owners were warm and inviting. The live music was on point and entertaining. I love jazz and the band played perfectly! The garlic bread and linguine alfredo was delicious. The salad was not amazing, but the cappuccino was great! Definitely recommend this place for a fun dinner night with loved ones. We had a blast and left with happy bellies.
What a wonderful experience. We had 12 in our group. Entertainment was fun and lively, engaged the audience, made us laugh and dance. Food was wonderful, and the sangria was delicious.
