This week’s 5 best bets for dining in Las Vegas

Anniversary menu

Ferarro’s Italian Restaurant and Wine Bar is 31 years old — practically ancient by Las Vegas standards. To celebrate, it’s offering a $31.31 three-course prix-fixe menu of some of the most popular dishes. Appetizer choices include fried baby squid with spicy tomato sauce and seared beef tenderloin with light tuna mousse and micro-lettuces; entrees include Lasagna alla Gino and tripe in a spicy tomato sauce; a sweet sampler will be served for dessert. This menu is available from Saturday through Nov. 13 at the restaurant at 4480 Paradise Road. Call 702-364-5300.

International Sherry Week

Jaleo at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is celebrating International Sherry Week from Monday through Nov. 13 with a dozen new sherry cocktails. And at the five-course Sherry vs. Wine dinner Nov. 10, each course will be paired with both a sherry and a wine. That’s $100; email natalic@jaleo.com.

Sons of Norway dinner

The Sons of Norway Desert Troll Lodge will host its annual lutefisk and meatballs dinner from 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday at the Elks Lodge at 1217 Nevada Highway in Boulder City.
