The Opera House Casino opened in 1979 on 2542 Las Vegas Boulevard North. Proprietor Olind Jenni bought the building, which formerly housed Don Laughlin's 101 Club, and turned it into a casino with a restaurant and bar. Jenni sold the casino in 1986. It was later purchased by Silver Nugget Gaming in 2007. The casino closed in 2014 and was later demolished.
