Maggiano's Little Italy Sets Summerlin Opening Date

Maggiano's Little Italy is ready to make the leap from The Strip to Downtown Summerlin, bringing another familiar dining option to the shopping center’s stuffed dining scene.

Serving "Italian cuisine classics with an American twist," the 9,732-square-foot restaurant, bar and patio will debut on Monday, Oct. 24 at 4 p.m.

Opening hours will be Monday to Thursday from 4 to 10 p.m., closing at 11 p.m. on Friday. For now, lunch will only be served on the weekend, open on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. and 11 a.m until 9 p.m. on Sundays. A carryout menu option is available and for large group orders, the restaurant will even provide delivery.

Maggiano's debuted its 325-seat, upper-level Fashion Show mall location in 2004, offering generous portions and a large menu that includes pastas, salads, steaks, fish and one of their most famous items, beef tenderloin medallions.

In Summerlin, the restaurant sits close to the Dining Arroyo district and its neighbors California Pizza Kitchen and Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill. Created with an early, estimated construction budget of $2.8 million, the interior features red and white check tablecloths, booth seating and a patio offering views of the nearby fountains.
