Marc Vetri’s Fiorella Pasta Bar at Durango Casino & Resort will close after its final service on March 27, ending its run inside the resort’s Eat Your Heart Out food hall. The chef-driven counter, which opened with the property in December 2023, gained a following for its house-made pastas, and its closure reduces Vetri’s Las Vegas presence while marking another shift in the off-Strip dining scene.
Station Casinos confirmed the closure this week, calling it “part of the larger food and beverage strategy for the property and evaluating the offerings within the food hall,” as reported by the Las Vegas Review‑Journal. According to the outlet, Fiorella will shut down after service on March 27, and the company plans to reveal what will replace it in the coming weeks.
Durango Food Hall Shake Up
Eat Your Heart Out was set up to combine local operators with out of market names when Durango opened, mixing quick service stalls with chef fronted counters, as detailed by Eater Vegas. Durango’s restaurant directory lists Fiorella at 6915 S. Durango Drive, and Fiorella’s own Las Vegas site tags the outpost as “Est. 2023,” with both pages providing hours and reservation information for the Durango location.
Vetri’s Vegas Footprint
Marc Vetri’s official site traces his career back to Vetri Cucina in Philadelphia and confirms that Fiorella Las Vegas opened in December 2023 as part of his expansion into the city. Osteria Fiorella at Red Rock is still listed on the resort’s dining pages, which keeps Vetri present in Summerlin despite the Durango closure, according to the Red Rock Resort restaurant page.
What Is Next For The Space
Durango has already started work on a north side expansion that the Las Vegas Review‑Journal reports will include three new restaurants. The paper, citing Clark County records, notes a tenant improvement permit for an interior remodel converting an Italian restaurant space into a Mexican concept. That filing, paired with Station Casinos’ statement, points to the Fiorella stall being reworked for a new tenant rather than left empty, with the company saying it will announce a replacement soon…
