Chef Miguel Rivera has been working in the restaurant industry for over 40 years. Subsequently, around 20 of those years have been spent cooking in the well known Italian restaurant IL Mulino NY, previously located inside of Caesars Palace in the forums shop.

Some amazing opportunities I've experienced include being a part of the Vegas UNCORK'D by Bon Appetit for five consecutive years. Previously, IL Mulino NY has been nominated for the titles of Top Ten Italian Restaurants in the country and Best Italian Restaurant in Las Vegas. Also, the American Academy has graciously awarded my cooking with the "Golden Plate Award". My goal for Gondola is to incorporate new flavors of Italian cuisine from the Las Vegas Strip to your local neighborhood. I look forward to honing my skills in the kitchen and expanding the restaurant to provide the community with more Italian novelties.

We dined here a lot and it never disappoints! My husband loves the chicken parm. I love the clams casino. They have a separate munu of specials— appetizers, pasta and entrees, everything made from scratch. I love the eggplant rolatini, which is an appetizer. That and a side of pasta is perfect. Plus the people are just so nice. Beautiful restaurant and it’s like dining with family

I am ecstatic to have found this amazing restaurant. I tell everyone I know about it -- it is a true hidden gem in Las Vegas. I have now tried over 6 entrees, each one better than the next. The pollo piccata is AMAZING. Everything is made from scratch, except the gelato. Even the bread rolls are out of this world. And my friends who have gone there based upon recommendations also agree this is one of the best restaurants in all of Las Vegas. You won't be disappointed regardless of what you order. Service is also exceptional. You wouldn't think such a nice restaurant is in this location, but the ambiance is very nice and the background music very nice and quiet enough to enjoy a conversation while dining. I can't say enough about Gondola. Try it and I promise you won't be disappointed!

The location is not great, but once you get inside, the ambiance is wonderful, very friendly staff, & very good cuisine. Chef Miguel will prepare any way you like. Nadiah is a wonderful host(ess). Everything is homemade by Chef (except the Gelato) and quite wonderful. Try the lasagna, but everything is quite good. We go often even though it is more than 15 minutes away (LOL)!!

This is an amazing family owned Italian restaurant. The owner is also the chef and every dish is beautiful and incredibly delicious. The dining room is elegant and romantic. Gondola is located in a strip mall that gets no walk in traffic. Looks like nothing from the outside, but is a feast for the eyes and appetite inside
