Piero's, the old-school Italian room across from the Convention Center where Martin Scorsese filmed scenes for Casino, is serving a three-course Thanksgiving dinner for $85 on Thursday, Nov 26, from 3 to 8 p.m. You start with butternut squash soup, a shaved Brussels sprouts salad or pumpkin ravioli, then get roast turkey breast with turkey sausage stuffing, cranberry sauce and sage gravy, and finish with pumpkin cheesecake and warm caramel. The regular menu is on too, so anyone at the table who'd rather have osso buco or the veal chop parmigiana can still order it. There's live music in the Monkey Bar from 4 to 8 p.m. and a $22 Crème Brûlée Old Fashioned on special, and reservations are open on Piero's website.

Coming Soon: Five Guys at the Plaza is now aiming for Nov 12 for its hot dog cart and Dec 28 for the restaurant

Downtown's first Five Guys was supposed to start with a hot dog cart under the Plaza's dome in the spring and open the full restaurant over the summer, and the Plaza's own site now just says it's opening in late 2026. Vital Vegas reports the cart by Carousel Bar should open Nov 12 and the 60-seat burger shop in the former Pop Up Pizza space should open Dec 28, so treat those as targets rather than promises.

Closing / last chance

Closed: La Mona Rosa on Fremont East is no longer a restaurant and has turned into the Pink Monkey nightclub

La Mona Rosa, the Mexican spot at 100 S. Sixth St. that replaced La Comida in January 2023, relaunched as the Pink Monkey nightclub on Oct 1, 2026, and owner Ryan Doherty told Vital Vegas the kitchen now only cooks for special events and buyouts. The new name is a wink (la mona rosa is Spanish for the pink monkey), but if it was your dinner stop before a night out on Fremont East, you'll need a new one.
