New food hall coming to The Venetian Las Vegas

15 October 2024

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The Venetian Las Vegas announced today the newest addition to its illustrious food and beverage portfolio, Via Via, a new Food Hall, opening in mid-2025. Located right off the iconic Grand Colonnade, the collection of concepts will bring together the diverse culinary scenes of New York and Los Angeles for a truly immersive sensory experience reminiscent of the meandering streets of Venice.

Via Via will be the newest “must-try” spot in Las Vegas, and home to buzzed-about venues such as All’Antico Vinaio, Howlin’ Ray’s, Scarr’s Pizza, B.S. Taqueria, Close Company, Ivan Ramen, Molly’s Rise & Shine, and Turkey and the Wolf. Blending the historic charm of Venice and the vibrant soul of Las Vegas, Via Via invites guests to embark on a casual culinary journey; capturing the feeling of discovering amazing food in small, eclectic, and unique locations.

“We’ve carefully curated some of the most highly regarded culinary concepts from across the country to create a true sense of discovery for our guests. Imagine strolling through the streets of Italy, discovering incredible street food crafted by award-winning chefs—all in one vibrant neighborhood. That’s the experience we aim to deliver with Via Via,” said Patrick Nichols, president and CEO of The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. “Located just off the Grand Colonnade, Via Via is designed to immerse our guests in the spirit of la dolce vita—a celebration of not just exceptional food, but the joy of sharing it with great company.”

All'Antico Vinaio
All’Antico Vinaio, which translates to “ancient wine merchant,” is a celebrated Italian sandwich shop that began in Florence in 1991. Founded by the Mazzanti family, it quickly became a beloved spot for locals and tourists alike, known for its delicious and authentic Tuscan schiacciata sandwiches. The shop has since expanded to multiple locations, including Rome, Milan, Turin, Los Angeles, Vegas and several locations in New York.

Howlin’ Ray’s
Since 2015, Chef Johnny Ray Zone and wife Amanda Chapman have been bringing the heat to the people of Los Angeles, courtesy of their Nashville Hot Chicken. The culture of Hot Chicken speaks deeply to both Johnny and Amanda, and continuing to share the spirit and camaraderie of the dish is their goal. No matter how hot, Howlin’ Ray’s aspires to bring families, friends, and newcomers together to share a meal and feel the heat.

Scarr’s Pizza
Scarr’s Pizza was established in 2016 by Scarr Pimentel and is based in New York City. With a focus on organic and all natural ingredients, Scarr’s Pizza is committed to creating high-quality products for the community and beyond.

B.S. Taqueria
The Los Angeles based, ingredient-driven taqueria offers creative twists on classic tacos like Chile-rubbed al pastor made with cauliflower roasted over a wood fired grill along with time honored favorites like carnitas and house made chorizo all served on freshly pressed heirloom corn tortillas. Founded by Chef Ray Garcia, the menu is rounded out with dishes intended for sharing, all of which channel elements of long-established tradition yet are presented with modern appeal.

Close Company
From the creators of Death & Co, one of the most influential bars of the modern craft cocktail movement, Close Company brings its signature cocktail excellence to a playful and vibrant setting. With a focus on contemporary drinks and a lively atmosphere, Close Company offers an approachable, community-driven experience without sacrificing quality. This new concept will debut its first West Coast location in Las Vegas, with additional launches in Nashville and Atlanta, becoming a must-visit destination for travelers and locals alike.

Ivan Ramen
Ivan’s journey is a compelling tale of a teenager's unexpected introduction to the culinary world through a sushi bar dishwashing job, igniting his passion for Japanese culture. Defying the odds, Ivan opened a wildly successful ramen shop in Tokyo, setting the stage for his expansion into the U.S. with Ivan Ramen in NYC—and an exciting new location coming to the UK next year. But Ivan Ramen is more than just about exceptional ramen; the menu is also packed with inventive, playful izakaya-style plates that reflect the fun, adventurous spirit of Japanese dining. Now, with the highly anticipated opening at The Venetian in Las Vegas, Ivan Ramen is ready to bring this bold, flavor-packed experience to the Strip.

Turkey and the Wolf and Molly’s Rise and Shine
James Beard Award nominated and New York Times best-selling author chef Mason Hereford is bringing his two New Orleans hotspots, Turkey and the Wolf and Molly’s Rise and Shine, to Las Vegas.

Turkey and the Wolf is a counter service-only joint that Food & Wine and Esquire listed as one of the most important restaurants of the decade, and Bon Appetit named the number one Best New Restaurant in America in 2017. The menu showcases eccentric dishes like a double decker braised collard green sandwich and whimsically reinvented nostalgia, including an empanada stuffed with chicken pot pie served with tarragon buttermilk.

Molly’s Rise and Shine, a breakfast joint that Food & Wine named one of the ten Best New Restaurants in America in 2020, serves up instant classics like Roasted Carrot Yogurt and epic takes on classic biscuit sandwiches. This must-visit destination brings the eclectic charm of Magazine Street straight to the Las Vegas Strip.
