Meatballs are the ultimate comfort food, and as it does with so many other things, Las Vegas does meatballs epic. Here are five of the best meatballs in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

1. Old Homestead Steakhouse<\/strong><\/p>\n

This steakhouse at Caesars Palace can do no wrong with us, and that includes their meatball “appetizer.” We put it in quotation marks, because the Old Homestead meatball could very well be a meal on its own. Best to share, though, because the steak that follows is some of the best on The Strip, so you’ll want to save some room.<\/p>\n

2. Pizza Rock<\/strong><\/p>\n

Downtown’s Pizza Rock is not only the best pizza in Las Vegas, it’s winning over legions of fans with its meatballs, too. Pizza Rock<\/a> is part of Downtown Third, across from the Downtown Grand (formerly the Lady Luck). For an inexpensive, filling meal, order a trio of meatballs ($6) and a side of focaccia (a couple bucks more), and you’re good to go!<\/p>\n

3. Cafe Martorano<\/strong><\/p>\n

The meatballs as Martorano’s, formerly at Rio Las Vegas but now at Paris Las Vegas, are treat you’re unlikely to forget. Martorano’s meatballs are a blend of beef, pork and veal, and have a definitely spicy kick to them.<\/p>\n

\"Martorano's<\/a>
Chef Steve Martorano insists he doesn’t serve his meatballs in sauce, he serves them in “gravy.” Given the size of his arms, we tend not to argue. Oh, and he doesn’t love when people call him a “chef,” either.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In addition to off-the-shelf bread crumbs, Martorano’s meatballs include day-old (for firmness) Italian bread. The bread keeps the meatballs moist. If you’ve got a few minutes, here’s Steve Martorano showing fans how to make his meatballs.<\/p>\n
