Where to go tonight for Dinner in Las Vegas, Vegetarian Options?
I am looking at an Italian Restaurant on Rampart called Nora's anyone been there. They seem to have good vegi options on their menu. I think Mexican, Indian, Italian, Asian are all good for vegi's. I know that's a pretty wide range, but to narrow it down we ate Mexican 3 days already, ate at Lotus of Siam last night, so Italian is looking pretty good right now. Any suggestions? Semi-Local so no problem driving. I lived in Las Vegas a while, and now come here every couple of months to work. Will be in town throughout February.Thanks in advance!

BTW, there are two Nora's now...there is the original, which I believe is on W. Flamingo, and the wine bar, which is on Rampart, in the same shopping center as the Williams-Sonoma. We went last night and spent about 140 per couple...we had the bruschetta with chicken livers (very good), the arancini (tasty), the sweet and sour meatballs (just ok), the meat platter (this is really great...it's a charcuterie platter of italian meats and it's really tasty), head on prawns with cannelini beans (tasty), pasta al forno (very comforting on a cold night) and a sicilian pork (good, not great). Next time I go there I will try the farro with ragu of wild boar. I think that you can spend a lot of money on the wine out of the enotecia dispensing machine, but it's quite fun. On the other hand, I thought their by the bottle prices seemed pretty fair to me. 2005 Conundrum at 42; I just saw it at a nice restaurant in Santa Monica for 72 (!). Definitely need a reservation, particularly on the weekends.

Went to Nora's! Loved it! We like "the scene", hate to say it but we do have to admit to being atleast medium party animals! We've been known to dance until the place closes, more than once a week! Anyway, it was perfect. We bought the "credit card" for $30.00 while waiting on our table to sample the wines in the ultra cool wine refrigerators, fun stuff. Then, at the table enjoyed the Brushettas and #1, #3, and #6 wine tastings, along with 2 other appertifs and 1 pasta, and 1 spinach pizza! I know that was a lot of food but we were really having fun and went for it. Had to bring home a little pasta and half the pizza. The waiter was 5 star, 5 diamond! Kept bringing our dishes and tastings of wines so that we never had to wait for it or ask for anything, nor was it brought too early (one of my pet peeves). We also bought glasses of the wines we liked best from the tasting. Extensive Vegi meal for 2, with wine bar ($30.00), with tip $190.00) I think well spent and couldn't have enjoyed myself more. I will definiately be returning to Nora's Wine Bar on Rampart.

The Nora's wine bar that is on rampart is pretty tasty, but a bit of a scene. You might want a res. We've enjoyed it, but it can get quite crowded. They have a very extensive wine list, plus these kind of fun refrigerator units that hold wine and that you buy a "credit card" from your server to use. That can get expensive, and generally, I think the restaurant is a bit pricy, but good. They do have a range of bruschetta, antipasti and pasta that should appeal to a vegetarian, plus the non-veg food was also tasty. The other place I'd think about is Origin India; great food, nice atmopshere, central location across from the Hard Rock
