Resorts World Las Vegas has opened Amici New York Pizzeria, serving both New York and Detroit-style pizza with weekend hours running until 4 a.m. The new spot replaces Mulberry Street Pizzeria and aims to feed the post-nightlife crowd.
There’s a new late-night pizza spot on the Las Vegas Strip. Amici New York Pizzeria is now open inside Resorts World Las Vegas, firing up pies until 4 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. The restaurant sits just steps from nightlife hotspots like Zouk and RedTail, and it’s built for the after-hours rush. Amici opened in the old Mulberry Street Pizzeria space on September 18, 2026. Mulberry served its last slices on September 14, as reported by Casino.org.
Resorts World created Amici as an in-house concept, moving away from outside operators. This is part of a bigger push to build its own dining brands. Josef Wagner, Senior Vice President of Operations, confirmed the shift in strategy for the resort’s food and beverage lineup. Resorts World calls Amici a proprietary concept, showing its focus on shaping its own food identity and guest experience.
What’s on the menu at Amici
Executive Chef Ricky McCormick runs the kitchen. He’s worked at Restaurant Guy Savoy at Caesars Palace and The NoMad in New York. Amici makes its dough in-house and lets it ferment for 48 hours. The menu covers both 22-inch New York-style pizzas and thick, crispy Detroit-style pies. Signature New York-style options include Pepperoni Pizza with cup-and-char pepperoni and aged Pecorino Romano, Hot Honey Meat Lovers with Italian sausage, meatballs and bacon, and Burrata & Prosciutto di Parma topped with baby arugula and olive oil. Resorts World highlights the 48-hour fermented dough as a key part of what sets Amici apart.
The Detroit-style menu features a Cheeseburger Pizza with ground beef, bacon, cheddar, caramelized onion, pickles, tomato, shredded iceberg lettuce and a secret sauce. There’s also a Buffalo Chicken Detroit-style pizza, and other toppings rotate with the seasons. Sides and desserts include garlic knots, Caesar salad, cannoli, New York cheesecake, and a Snickerdoodle cookie. Drinks range from beer and wine to non-alcoholic options and an Amalfi Lemon Sgroppino.
Hours and pricing for night owls
Amici is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday, Monday, and Thursday. It’s closed Tuesday and Wednesday. On Fridays and Saturdays, it stays open until 4 a.m., according to the official Resorts World dining page. Slices cost less than $10. A full cheese pizza is $38, and most whole pies run from $45 to $50. For groups or anyone who wants to try a bit of everything, the $65 “Sampler” lets guests mix and match slices. Casino.org reports that Amici is cash-only. The restaurant is in The District near the Plaza Entrance, and the phone number is (702) 676-8860.
These late-night hours are meant for people looking for food after concerts, club nights, or casino games. Resorts World’s move to bring Amici in-house follows a trend in Las Vegas, where more resorts are betting on their own brands and chefs to stand out. As detailed in a Vital Vegas review, Amici’s launch is part of a bigger shift toward proprietary concepts aimed at the late-night and post-nightlife crowd.
Resorts World’s dining strategy
Amici’s opening marks a change for Resorts World Las Vegas, which opened in 2021 and has tried both outside partnerships and original concepts. By building Amici from the ground up, the resort is taking more control over quality and tailoring its food to fit the Strip’s unique pace. The spot in The District, right by nightlife and entertainment, puts Amici in a good place to catch both pre-show and after-hours guests.
With its mix of New York and Detroit-style pizzas, late-night hours, and straightforward pricing, Amici New York Pizzeria is a clear play for the Strip’s hungry weekend crowd. Dropping outside operators like Mulberry Street Pizzeria shows Resorts World wants to shape its own food scene. For Las Vegas, it’s another sign that big resorts want to own the guest experience from the casino floor to the last slice served at 4 a.m.
