Ah, October. The leaves are changing colors. The air is crisp and cool. Pumpkin spice is everywhere you look. And best of all, it’s National Pasta Month!

Whether you’re a fan of tender spaghetti, chewy fettuccine, or hearty ravioli, there’s a pasta dish out there with your name on it. Or maybe you’re like me, and every pasta dish has your name on it. Even as a kid, I was never a picky eater whatsoever (my mother hit the jackpot). That said, to this day, I’ve never come face-to-face with a pasta I didn’t like. I take that back. I’ve never come face-to-face with a pasta I didn’t LOVE. Overall, it’s totally a comfort food of mine. It’s hard not to love all things carb-y and delicious, and pasta has certainly earned the top spot in my book for the best carb-loaded creation to ever grace this planet. YUM.

According to National Today, pasta has been enjoyed for centuries upon centuries, dating as far back as 5000 BC. Apparently, the Chinese were the first civilization to eat pasta. And here we are, in the 21st century, enjoying similar dishes all of these years later. Heck. Even our pets are enjoying it! Pasta is actually safe for your dog or cat to consume, so long as it is in small amounts and your pet isn’t allergic to wheat. Make sure your per isn’t allergic to wheat… Big yikes.

National Pasta Month deserves massive celebration. And what better place to enjoy a good plate of noodles than Sin City? Las Vegas is home to countless restaurants offering exquisite cuisine, and the pasta situation here, in my opinion, reigns supreme. With so many delicious options to choose from, where will you celebrate National Pasta Month? Bon Appetit!

Here are 5 of the best places to get your pasta fix in Las Vegas:

  • 5) Maggiano's Little Italy - Downtown Summerlin & Fashion Show Mall

    It doesn’t matter which side of the Las Vegas Valley you live on. Maggiano’s has two locations in town – one in Downtown Summerlin, and one on the Las Vegas Strip inside Fashion Show Mall. My personal favorite dishes are their “Famous Rigatoni ‘D'” and “Mom’s Lasagna.” They even offer several dishes “family style!”

  • 4) A•Mano Pizza & Italian Cuisine - Centennial Hills

    This gem has gone viral on social media for a reason and is located on the edge of Centennial Hills and North Las Vegas. I highly recommend you try their famous “Fat Baby!” There are several different pasta dishes to choose from for the creation, making it a fun and delicious experience for all. Amano is one of the most perfectly unique options for celebrating National Pasta Month in Las Vegas!

  • 3) Bella Vita - Henderson & Blue Diamond

    There are currently two locations in Las Vegas – one in Henderson and one on Blue Diamond Road, but a third Bella Vita location is coming soon to Boca Park in Summerlin. This upscale Italian restaurant has some of the best vibes and best pasta dishes in town. Whether you decide to go with their delicious Linguini Pesto, their flavorful Frutti Di Mare, or one of their other pasta offerings, you’re sure to have a wonderful, tasteful experience. They also offer pickup and delivery!

  • 2) Carbone - Aria Resort & Casino

    If you’re looking for 20th century elegance, I’ve got your spot right here. Carbone inside Aria Resort & Casino is a high-end Italian eatery that serves up classic dishes with a modern twist. I recommend trying the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka – it’s like spicy comfort food for your soul.

  • 1) Tao Asian Bistro - The Venetian Resort Las Vegas

    I’ve only had the pleasure of dining here a couple of times in my life, but it certainly impressed and earned the top spot. This stylish bistro offers a more upscale take on Asian cuisine (think Wagyu beef and Maine lobster), but its noodle dishes are definitely not to be missed. Tao has several unique takes on classic favorites like Lo Mein and Pad Thai, so go ahead and slurp away! Seriously, some of the best dishes I’ve ever had.
