According to The Street , Nothing lasts forever, especially on the Las Vegas Strip, where change is a constant. Aside from perennial figures like Donny Osmond, Carrot Top, and Wayne Newton, the Strip regularly experiences overhauls, restaurant closures, and complete rebrandings.
Over the past year alone, the Strip has witnessed the departure of the Tropicana, which marked the end of the second-oldest resort casino on the iconic street. Soon, the Mirage will close its doors, and plans are underway to replace the small Casino Royale with a sprawling megaresort. Additionally, smaller venues have also shut down, including the well-known Old Homestead Steakhouse at Caesars Palace and Chef Julian Serrano’s Picasso, once considered one of the Strip’s top dining experiences.
The reasons behind these closures are varied. Changing tastes, the desire for novelty among tourists, and the high cost of operating on the Strip when business wanes all play a role. In Las Vegas, new attractions are always around the corner, and even a decade-long run for a restaurant is impressive. However, the city also holds on to its past, with Caesars recently reviving the Horseshoe name and honoring Las Vegas history with its Jack Binion’s steakhouse.
Yet, Las Vegas can be a tough city, as evidenced by the way Siegfried and Roy’s legacy has been overshadowed during the Mirage’s transformation into a Hard Rock International property.

Another long-standing restaurant on the Strip is also set to close. Holsteins Shakes and Buns, a modern twist on classic comfort food, opened at MGM Resorts’ Cosmopolitan in 2010. Known for its quirky take on burgers, milkshakes, and “moo-shine” drinks, Holsteins will shut down for good on July 9. The restaurant’s operator, Gen3 Hospitality, plans to introduce a new concept at the same location.
Meanwhile, Caesars Paris Las Vegas is welcoming celebrity chef Dominique Ansel, who will open his second Las Vegas location later this year. Following the success of Dominique Ansel Las Vegas at Caesars Palace, the new eatery, Dominique Ansel Marché, will debut in the fall. Inspired by French sidewalk markets, it will feature freshly baked croissants, made-to-order crêpes, seasonal tarts, and savory items like rotisserie chicken and potatoes. Ansel’s signature pastries, including the famous Cronut and Chocolate Chip Cookie Shots, will also be available at the new location, offering a taste of Parisian street food with a Las Vegas twist.
