Azzurra Cucina Italiana - Italian restaurant in Henderson - 322 S Water St, USA

I always prefer to dine in a restaurant at least 2 times or more to get an accurate feel, vibe and taste for the dining experience. We have been here 3 times now and the service is top notch. The restaurant itself is very small, clean, bright and cozy. It is traditional coastal Italian so the dishes are lighter in nature. They have an excellent happy hour between 4-6 which will allow you to try several items on the menu. This place is exactly what water street needed. It is a nice Italian restaurant to go to without having to drive all the way to the strip. A reservation is required so make sure to book online.

Walter is a true gentleman. The staff was very knowledgeable of the menu and specials. We saw" reservations only :on the door, but we still got in for the best fine dining in all of Nevada. 5 stars doesn't being to say how impressive this hidden gem is. Talk about teamwork! Top notch Now, the food was even more impressive than the service. The wine and beverage list was right on par. From starters to dessert, this place didn't hesitate to amaze your taste buds and leave you oh so full! As I am a foodie, this is the best place that deserves 100% straight across the board

This place is fantastic. The food comes out consistently excellent every time. The chef is amazing! Patio dining is perfect with this awesome weather! It has a vibe like no other!

This fabulous cozy little place is the very definition of hidden gem. Do yourself a favor and try this place out as soon as you can. Before it becomes so popular that you'll have to make reservations weeks ahead of time to get a table. We tried them out on a Thursday evening for dinner. I saw there were multiple reservations available online, so I didn't bother making one. There were plenty of tables available when we got there. The location is easy to find and there's plenty of street parking around. The restaurant itself is super cool and emits very cool Italian cafe vibes. Definitely a great place to bring a date. The service is absolutely stellar and rivals much larger and more expensive restaurants. The menu has a perfect amount of variety and price point options. There are some very expensive dishes, but there are also many very affordable ones. The halibut special and linguini with clams plates we had were molto delizioso. Ridiculously good. Honestly, stop reading this and go try them out. You won't regret it.

Restaurant is small but cozy, fun decor and great ambiance. Our bartender Shiela was attentive and friendly. We met the owner and Ricky, one of the servers there all came over and gave us great service! Food was excellent. We had the Bone-In Pork chop and the cream mashed potatoes as a side. Beet salad and mussels and clams as an appetizer. All great! We will be back to try their Chiliean Sea Bass and we have to try their Hazel Nut Panna Cotta next time we are in!

We had a fantastic time enjoying the amazing food and personable service at Azzura Cucina. It's an easy drive away into Henderson from Vegas and we'll worth the trip. Our server David was awesome and the food is immaculate. You won't regret visiting this restaurant if you find yourself in the Vegas area!

Absolutely excellent experience. Service was spot on, food was delicious. Reservation a must. Small restaurant.We had the meatballs app, calamari soup, Sea Bass, Parmesan Risotto and Chocolate mousse cake dessert. My wife is highly allergic to shellfish. We had ordered the special risotto of the day. They came back to alert us that it was prepared in a shrimp stock so we changed to another and their attention to that detail saved us from a sure trip to the hospital.
