The Marketplace offers seven eateries: Mercato Centrale (Italian), Al Comal (Mexican/South American), Pescato (seafood), Pork & Waffles (BBQ and Southern comfort food), Sukiru (Pan-Asian), Prime Cuts (part steakhouse and part Brazilian Churrascaria) and Sweet Things (desserts). The concept is a buffet designed like a high-end food hall, where chefs greet customers who select items from a menu that will be freshly prepared at each stall. The Marketplace by Fabio Viviani will replace the former Potrero Canyon Buffet. Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa announced a partnership with cookbook author and former “Top Chef” contestant Fabio Viviani in July 2021. Ramsay’s menu at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas includes entrées such as prime dry-aged New York strip, crispy skin salmon and beef Wellington priced $32.95-$63.95, with sides at $13.95.Īccording to a news release from Harrah’s, the new restaurant will seat 332 people and includes a lounge and an elevated bar. This will be the first Hell’s Kitchen location in Southern California and the fourth in the world, following Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Dubai. It’s become common for casinos to embrace new concepts amid buffet closures due to the coronavirus pandemic. Before the space was an Italian restaurant, it was Harrah’s buffet. The new addition will replace shuttered Italian restaurant, Che Bello. In July, Harrah’s Resort Southern California announced its partnership with British chef and reality television star Gordan Ramsay to open an in-house Hell’s Kitchen restaurant.

In 2022, that progress will continue with a new entertainment center and dining options from celebrity chefs, among a few other things.

Last year, we saw everything from a new hotel tower to several restaurants added to casino properties across Southern California.

Southern California tribal casinos went from expansion booms to expansion delays with the coronavirus pandemic, but that didn’t entirely hinder progress for some projects.
