MGM RESORTS UNVEILS EXPANDED PLANS, PROGRAMMING FOR
“THE PARK”
IN LAS VEGAS

<<Go Back

Dining Under the Sun and Stars:

Not unlike the small cafes and bistros that spill onto iconic promenades, clusters of casual restaurants and bars with outdoor seating will open each resort to The Park creating a colorful patio ambiance. Ranging from fast–casual to mid–level, each offering will be a unique–to–market, up–and–coming brand. Below is a first peek,with additional partners to be announced in the coming months:

Shake Shack – Boasting patios overlooking The Park and New York–New York’s Brooklyn Bridge, the much–beloved Shake Shack will introduce its first West Coast location when it opens in December 2014. Established in 2004 in NYC’s Madison Square Park, Shake Shack is a modern day “roadside” burger stand known for its all–natural burgers, flat–top dogs, frozen custard, beer, wine and more. With its fresh, simple, high–quality food at a great value, Shake Shack is a fun and lively community gathering place with widespread appeal.

Bruxie – The fast–casual, gourmet waffle restaurant born out of Orange County will serve up its signature takes on The Sandwich. Bruxie’s next–generation sandwiches use a light, airy authentic Brussels Waffle as the "Bold Fold".The Waffle is crisp, lightly yeasty and not sweet – reminiscent of freshly baked bread. Bruxie Waffles are paired with quality seasonal ingredients, offering both savory choices like Buttermilk Fried Chicken with Chili Honey and Cider Slaw as well as a variety of sweet options such as Strawberry Crème Brûlée.

Sake Rok – This theatrical hot spot open for lunch, dinner and a late–night bar/lounge, will thrill guests with more than just its array of delicious sushi, Japanese cuisine and private sake label. By night, Sake Rok will transform into a high–profile social dining extravaganza, immersing guests in an experience part culinary, part performance and completely unexpected. Inspired by Japan’s vibrant pop culture and fashion movements, interactive servers will invite guests to partake in restaurant–wide sake bombs while doubling as entertainers, spontaneously breaking into dance and lip–sync serenades. The emcee – a six–foot man dressed in traditional Geisha attire – will keep the energy and the sake flowing late into the night as Sake Rok transitions into a chic bar and lounge.

Beer Garden – This fun and approachable beer garden will be highlighted by its outdoor spaces and vantage points of all The Park’s activity. Guests will be able to indulge in sustainably raised farm–to–table meats, an impressive craft beer list, live music and, of course, games to get any social gathering started – bocce ball, darts and outdoor ping pong. Central to the design will be the restaurant’s signature open roasting area.
A Robert Mondavi Jr. Wine Experience – Robert Mondavi Jr.’s restaurant, lounge and wine bar concept will transport guests to Napa Valley, infusing each element of the experience with the signature warmth and inviting essence of the famous sun–soaked rolling vineyards where Mondavi Family wine production originated. Anchored by an extensive wine program, the venue will boast 100+ wines by the glass and a variety of formats including flights, quartinos, carafes, large formats and more, accompanied by gourmet wine country cuisine. Inside, guests will savor the sights and sounds from the partially open–format kitchen, while an open–air patio will evoke the feeling of a festive outdoor dinner party.

Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row – Country star Dierks Bentley will introduce his contemporary country bar and restaurant concept offering American gastropub fare, plenty of brews on tap, a specialty menu of “Boilermakers” –a shot of whiskey (from a menu featuring more than 40 options) dropped into a glass of beer – and live music by night. The cuisine will feature organic meats, locally farmed produce and a dessert menu to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar –Two–time James Beard Award–winning Chef Guillermo Pernot will heat up Las Vegas with his East Coast sensation Cuba Libre and its Havana–style restaurant, bar and high–energy Latin night spot. The restaurant’s atmosphere will offer a unique combination of Latin flavor, warmth and splendor.Specializing in rum, Cuba Libre will offer more than 100 premium and flavored varieties and specialty cocktails crafted from the freshest ingredients
