Freddie and Evan Glusman

What's Being Said About Pieroʼs Italian Cuisine?

The food is fresh and good, the service is outstanding and the host, Freddie Glusman, loyal, accommodating and discreet. The atmosphere Freddie creates in his restaurant is perfect for quiet business dinners, family celebrations and confidential encounters.

Most of his employees, including the chef, office manager, events coordinator, maitre d', beverage manager, captains and others, have been with Freddie's restaurant for more than a decade, some closer to three.

History

In 1982 Freddie Glusman opened Piero's Italian Cuisine on Karen Avenue. It quickly became a hangout for Las Vegas locals and celebrities like the Rat Pack, politicians, and some of those businessmen in the casino industry with Italian surnames, the "local color" guys.

Five years later, Piero's moved to its current location at 355 Convention Center Drive. The restaurant is walking distance from the Las Vegas Convention Center, The Strip, and a short hop from major hotels. The venue is licensed for 345 seats and has six separate dining rooms.

About Piero's

The list of notables who have visited Piero's is long and impressive. Former Presidents George Bush and Bill Clinton are customers, along with Keith Richards, Mick Jagger, Justin Timberlake, Michael Jordan and Larry Bird.  Las Vegas regulars include Jerry Lewis, Mike Tyson, Phyllis McGuire, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme.

"No one gets bothered in our restaurant," he said. "I don't care who the celebrity is or what they have done, they come here to enjoy the food, and I see to it they are allowed to dine in peace... No exceptions!"

A portion of the movie "Casino," starring Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci, and Sharon Stone, was shot in Piero's.

Piero's is open seven days a week for dinner; however, for special events we open for business breakfasts & luncheon meetings.

The menu is the same as it was when the restaurant opened with many nightly specials. The decor includes Aldo Luongo lithographs, original oils by José Bellver, and huge fresh floral displays on antique pine tables. Piero's is known for its fabulous cuisine, unique atmosphere, and its five star service.
