“We opened the first Zeppola Bakery in New York during the pandemic, so being able to open a second location in Las Vegas just two years later is a dream come true, especially at Grand Canal Shoppes, which is home to so many culinary legends,” Gianmarco Biamonte, owner of Zeppola Cafe says. “While we are known for our bakery, we’re excited to welcome guests to a full dining experience, with recipes from my grandma, Eugenia. And of course, we still have our delicious pastries to enjoy while dining in with us or to go.”
Zeppola Cafe is open daily from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. For more information or to make a reservation, visit zeppolacafe.com.
