The Italian American Club of Southern Nevada is a non-profit social club that remains the hub of Italian American community in Las Vegas for more than 64 years. Our restaurant, with three dining rooms and a bar, is open Wednesday through Sunday from 5:00 p.m.
The IAC of Southern Nevada (in Las Vegas) is a one-of-a-kind place. You never know who may join us, as many well-known celebrities call our club home. We always have something going on: LoungeMusic, Banquets, and Bocce Tournaments at our professional Bocce Ball Courts.
Host Ben Spano... In a well-run restaurant you may never know that a host ever exists. Ben is there to ensure that the connection between kitchen and dining room runs smoothly. Ben Spano is the first person you will see when you walk in the door, and often when reservations are made as well.

SAVE THE DATE! 2025 SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS CEREMONY
Saturday, June 28, 2025
PRESIDENT ANGELO MESSAGE... Read More >>>
Ciao Tuti,
I hope everyone reading this has been enjoying the summer. OK, maybe not the heat, but possibly vacationing with family or friends someplace away from the desert heat. Kids and grandkids are off from school and hopefully you get to spend more time with them. We recently were blessed to spend a week in Buffalo attending my cousins wedding. We have been gone for 46 years and have made trips back nearly every year since leaving home. This past visit gave us the best whether Buffalo has EVER had. NO SNOW and NO RAIN!
As of this writing, we are putting final touches on preparing for the Annual Scholarship Awards Luncheon. We have about 160 attendees including 22 recipients, their families and several IAC members. Governor Joe Lombardo again this year will be our guest speaker and scholarship awards presenter. This is our largest total awards amount of $69,000.00. We will have pictures and a report in next months newsletter. Congratulations to all the very deserving students.
Please note there will not be membership meetings for July or August. Additionally, please note, the club’s actual business, food and beverage will be closed a little earlier this year from Sunday August 3rd to reopen Wednesday August 13th. These very much deserved days off are for our complete team, staff members to recharge their batteries. I am sure many readers may have an idea how hard our staff works, but if you saw them behind the scenes, you would be very impressed and realize their true professional skills they show each and every day and for our special events. Thank you, Ben Spano, Jimmy Girard, Janine Pitchford, Mark West, Chef Juan Vasques, mixologists Mike Gomez and Jeff Liberman, best food servers in the business, Renee, Andrea, John, Janet, Jessica, Martin and our complete staff. Your hard work makes us proud to be considered one of the very best Italian American Clubs in the country.
VERY SPECIAL THANKS to Governor Joe Lombardo for his veto of Assembly bill 144 that would have replaced Columbus Day in Nevada with Indigenous Peoples Day. He recognized each group celebrates their own on separate days, as it should be.
Looking forward to seeing you at the club soon. Enjoy your summer. Stay well.
Angelo

Each Member Family writes and submits a brief family history with photograph(s) for one page of the book. The opposite page will contain a family recipe of your choice. Families may submit multiple pages for different family members or generations, each with a family recipe. The book will be divided by apertivi, antipasti, primi, secondi, contorni, and dolci. The book will be published and sold on Amazon and sold here at the Club. All the profits from book sales go to the scholarship fund.
If you’re interested, contact Roger Gallizzi, IAC member, at roger@charity-chef.com and give your name, phone number, and email address. That’s all you need to get started.
You’ll be contacted for family photo, story, and recipe, etc. We’ll assist with any technology issues. Recipe will be re-created, standardized, photographed and submitted for your approval, or you can make it at home and photograph it. We’ll give you some guide lines on the photos so we have a consistent look. The back cover will be a group shot of all contributors and the front cover will be a photograph of the club, and inside a little club history.
