Overnight, the Las Vegas Strip restaurant shut down the kitchen and cleared out the furniture
Anyone who has ever stepped foot in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace should be familiar with the Trevi Italian Restaurant. It was not acclaimed for its pasta nor for its gelato — but made popular by its central location and ancient Roman theming. On Monday, March 25, it abruptly closed.
