The Venetian Becomes the Latest Las Vegas Casino to Get in on the Food Hall Trend
All’Antico Vinaio. | All’Antico Vinaio All’Antico Vinaio will open its second Las Vegas location Las Vegas really can’t stop opening food halls. The Venetian Resort is the latest Strip casino to get in on the action — opening a new food hall with big names next year. The Via Via food hall will open in the former quick-service dining section near the Grand Colonnade area of the resort’s casino floor in mid-2025. Its biggest get is the second Las Vegas location of All’Antico Vinaio, the sandwich shop based in Florence, Italy — and known for its round-the-block lines, square slices of schiacciata bread, and sandwiches piled with cured meats and cheeses. The sandwich shop also has a location at Uncommons. James Beard Award-nominated chef Mason Hereford will open two of his New Orleans restaurants in the food hall. Turkey and the Wolf will debut at Via Via with oversized braised collard green sandwiches and empanadas stuffed with chicken pot pie while Molly’s Rise and Shine will offer quick-service breakfast options. Other restaurants joining the food hall include Los Angeles hot chicken restaurant Howlin’ Ray’s, New York’s Scarr’s Pizza, izakaya and noodle shop Ivan Ramen, and cocktail bar Close Company — a spin-off of LA’s Death & Co. Chef Ray Garcia is revitalizing his B.S. Taqueria, which used to serve chile-rubbed al pastor and chorizo tacos at the Sundry food hall at Uncommons. That food hall closed just one year after opening. Via Via is hardly the only food hall to anticipate in the coming months. Miracle Mile Shops at the Planet Hollywood casino plans to open Miracle Eats this winter. The food hall will have locations of Fat Sal’s, Tacotarian, Carnegie Pizza, Dave’s Hot Chicken, Lobster Me, and Fat Tuesday. And Caesars Palace is in the midst of converting its generic food court into a celebrity chef-studded food hall with Esther Choi’s Mokbar, Buddy V’s Pizzeria by Buddy Valastro, and Tortazo by Rick Bayless all opening later this year. And Via Via joins other new additions coming to the Venetian as part of the resort’s $1.5 billion reinvestment project. Next year, chef José Andrés will move his Bazaar Meat steakhouse from the Sahara Las Vegas to the Palazzo at the Venetian Resort and both California-based Gjelina and the Michelin-starred Cote Steakhouse are planned to open. It looks like the Las Vegas food hall trend may be here to stay.
