Giada De Laurentiis to open second restaurant with Caesars Palace

12 October 2017

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Celebrated chef, author and television personality Giada De Laurentiis is anticipated to open her second restaurant, Pronto by Giada, at Caesars Palace in early 2018. Taking a page from her highly-successful GIADA at The Cromwell, Pronto will offer guests De Laurentiis' signature Italian fare with Californian influences in a fast, casual format.

"With Pronto by Giada being my second restaurant, I wanted to do something a little different, with a more casual approach than my first restaurant," said De Laurentiis. "This will be a great introduction to my food and brand, as it's the lighter side of Italian with a fresh, California influence. It will be perfect for a fast bite, and then guests can go across the street for a finer dining experience."

"Caesars Palace prides itself on having the most impressive collection of celebrity chef restaurants — the addition of Giada De Laurentiis and Pronto by Giada brings our culinary empire to an even higher level of excellence," said Caesars Palace Regional President, Gary Selesner. "Pronto will offer something for every guest, from those looking to grab a quick bite or an artisanal coffee, to those wanting to enjoy the chic space while leisurely enjoying charcuterie and a glass of wine, all conveniently positioned steps away from our convention center and Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis."

Pronto will be located adjacent to the world-famous Bacchanal Buffet and MR CHOW and will offer breakfast, lunch and dinner options, made with the freshest ingredients and prepared in an abbreviated time — perfect for guests on the go or those looking for a leisurely bite. Once guests receive their dishes, a variety of seating will be available, from counter and bar seating to casual lounging. Not only will the food offerings be fast and refreshing, but the beverage offerings will be as well, from the coffee program to wine-on-tap to a full service bar with signature cocktails.

Breakfast offerings will include house-made pastries featuring traditional and unconventional flavors, including Italian Cornetti as well as breakfast sandwiches and made-to-order smoothies; lunch and dinner will feature fresh-pressed Paninis, salads, De Laurentiis' twist on sandwiches with her lobster roll and gooey grilled cheese, antipasti and Formaggi and Salumi platters. For those with a sweet tooth like De Laurentiis, the dessert selections will be the perfect combination of light and decadent with gelato and sorbetto in both familiar and Giada-fied flavors, her famous lemon ricotta cookies and a selection of eye-catching cakes sold by the slice. Coffee fans will delight in the artisanal selections available around the clock, featuring traditional fresh brews to nitro options and eye-catching foam art.

Pronto will be an open, light space, encouraging guests from all areas of Caesars Palace to place an order, take a seat and enjoy the scenery. As she did with her first restaurant, De Laurentiis took inspiration for the look and feel from her own home. With natural elements such as wood and marble quartz, coupled with pops of color in the Italian-inspired tile, Pronto will be warm and inviting while providing an ease from the excitement of the casino floor.
