There really is no wrong day or wrong way to enjoy good pasta.

Lucky for Las Vegas locals, there are countless dining options around the valley to enjoy. But there also is a big difference between good pasta and “OMG this is GREAT!” pasta. We’re hoping to share a few of the latter.

Below are five pasta dishes that we think are simply irresistible and must-try. If you’ve had any of them, we want to hear from you! Share your dining experience with us on Twitter or Instagram @stationcasinos.

Okay, enjoy chatter. Let’s get to the pasta!

Pasta Carbonara at Pasta Cucina inside Sunset Station

Pasta Cucina is the best of both worlds – the room itself has a unique feel of an outdoor patio in an Italian city but it’s open to the casino floor which means you’re never too far away from the action.

One of the most popular dishes at Pasta Cucina is the Pasta Carbonara. The combination of egg, cheese, cured pork, and black pepper make for yet another comforting pasta dish done to perfection. The next time you’re in Henderson, stop by. You won’t regret it.
