LAS VEGAS · THE RESTAURANT YEARS
State St.His own corner of Las Vegas.
Gianni’s Las Vegas story includes a place with his name on the menu: Gianni Russo’s State St. UNLV’s Special Collections preserves a menu from the 1980s, a tangible piece of that chapter. On the show, Gianni tells how he built the restaurant and recalls the late nights and personalities that passed through its doors.
