In the Kitchen with Mark LoRusso
"I grew up in a typical Italian-American family that enjoyed traditional Sunday dinners," says Mark LoRusso, executive chef at SW Steakhouse. "I always loved those Sundays, because from an early age I saw that connection between dinnertime and family, and how food calmed everything and made people happy. For that reason, I never wanted to do anything else than be a chef."
LoRusso has helmed several kitchens at Wynn and Encore Las Vegas, but since joining SW in 2021, he's now overseeing the undisputed power-dining spot in the city. "This is where everybody wants to eat, no question," he notes. "Almost every night you spot someone famous: actors, athletes, and people who just really love food. We have to be top of our game every night."
At SW, guests enjoy a balance of exceptional beef with LoRusso's latest additions. "We get beautiful steaks from Snake River Farms and certified Kobe cuts, but I added a fresh ravioli with crab meat and artichokes in a Meyer lemon sauce that also does really well," he says. "When I see someone take that first bite and smile, it reminds me why I became a chef."
