Italian Restaurant With Las Vegas Strip Chefs Is Opening in a Henderson Apartment Complex | Eater Vegas

"Opening this May inside the Ilumina on Raiders Way apartment complex near the M Resort, this Italian bistro is led by executive chef David Jones (formerly of Jean-Georges Steakhouse at ARIA and Prime Steakhouse at Bellagio) and chef de cuisine David Doyle (formerly of Prime Steakhouse and Joël Robuchon at MGM Grand). The menu mixes approachable Italian-driven dishes and classics, with highlights including a shrimp ceviche with blue corn, a pizza topped with prosciutto and soppressata, smash burgers, mushroom bolognese pasta, and braised short ribs with polenta, plus lunch items like tomato bisque, half-roasted chicken, avocado toast, and a wedge salad. The beverage program features classic wines, local beers, and cocktails made with seasonal herbs from an on-site garden. The dining room is bright and airy with large windows, neutral furnishings, and indoor trees, and a 1,900-square-foot patio overlooks the complex pool and garden; the ground-floor spot (between the parking garage and pool) will also offer a private dining room, 15 video-gaming machines, and daily service from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m." - Janna Karel
