WHAT:
Ferraro’s Ristorante recently commemorated its 40th anniversary with a reception-style celebration honoring its legacy in Las Vegas. Guests gathered for an evening of passed hors d’oeuvres, fine beverages and heartfelt tributes from elected officials recognizing the restaurant’s extraordinary journey from a humble six-table deli to a world-renowned dining destination.
The event began with welcome remarks from founder Gino Ferraro, who reflected on the restaurant’s growth over four decades and the hard work, commitment, dedication—and above all, the family values—that have shaped Ferraro’s since 1985. During the ceremony, Ferraro’s was honored with three official proclamations: a lieutenant gubernatorial proclamation presented by Chief of Staff Rudy Pamintuan, a City of Las Vegas mayoral proclamation presented by Mayor Shelley Berkley and a Clark County commission proclamation presented by Commissioner Tick Segerblom. Each proclamation celebrated Ferraro’s enduring impact on the Las Vegas culinary landscape and its continued commitment to excellence.
Throughout its 40-year history, Ferraro’s has achieved national and international acclaim for its dedication to authentic Italian cuisine and hospitality. In 2023, Ferraro’s received the Tre Bottiglie (Three Bottles) award from Italy’s esteemed Gambero Rosso organization for its world-class wine list, followed in 2024 by the coveted Tre Forchette (Three Forks)—an honor shared by only eight U.S. restaurants. This year, Gambero Rosso once again named Ferraro’s among its honorees in its prestigious Top Italian Restaurants Guide.
Today, Ferraro’s boasts more than 1,800 wine labels and 22,000 bottles, employs 110 team members and donates more than $30,000 annually to local schools and charities. The restaurant remains a symbol of culinary artistry, family heritage and community pride.
