NFL Legend Emmitt Smith’s Las Vegas Restaurant Closes Abruptly

Emmitt’s Vegas, the steakhouse launched by NFL Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith at the Fashion Show mall, has abruptly closed after reportedly failing to pay over $400,000 in rent.  Landlord Brookfield Properties posted a notice on the venue’s doors stating that locks were changed and that Emmitt’s owed $407,730.88 in delinquent rent. 

The restaurant first opened in February 2024 after years of development delays. Even before opening, it faced legal disagreements including a lawsuit involving its original executive chef.  During its short tenure, Emmitt’s offered a menu featuring large steak cuts like 40-ounce tomahawks, seafood, sushi rolls, and a raw bar. 

In a brief statement, Clarkway Entertainment, the management group, confirmed the closure and said they are evaluating their next steps. “We regret to confirm that Emmitt’s Vegas is currently closed … as we carefully evaluate the best path forward for the restaurant,” the statement said.
