Augusto s is a 1 minute walk from the strip and well worth those extra few steps. The food is spot on and the place has a great feel to it. The owner and staff are all really gracious and look after you as though they actually value you being there, which isn t something you can say for most of the other places on the strip. It s quieter, more relaxed, no big stag / hen dos walking past, no bright neon signs and banging music. If you are in a big group on a hen/stag do however, it s an ideal place to start the night off especially if you are all feeling a bit rough from the night before and just want some goods chats without all the deafening music. But I would mainly recommend it to families and couples looking for somewhere a bit less Britain Abroad .

The owner runs the restaurant so you are welcomed and looked after, and not treat like just another customer trying to get rushed through the doors by touts. He would make conversation, get our beers in every night, call us a taxi (to Old Town) etc etc. Augusto gives you the kind of extra touches you don t get on the strip, a charismatic and friendly character with very good English but you still feel as though you are abroad due to the nice surroundings, staff and menu. Well worth giving Augustos a go, I highly recommend it. With it being slightly off the strip you will find the bill to be a bit smaller too which is always good.
