Laughlin, Nevada

** New Updates are posted at the end of this article  

Earlier in the month we shared news that Guy Fieri and Caesars Entertainment planned to create several new restaurants including one in Laughlin.   Today, in a press release, it said plans are to open 3 new restaurants by the end of the year (2014) at:

Bally's Atlantic City, Horseshoe Baltimore and Harrah's Laughlin. 




 Press Release:


LAS VEGAS, May 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Caesars Entertainment today announced the company is expanding its relationship with chef, restaurateur, New York Times best-selling author and Emmy award-winning television host, Guy Fieri. On the heels of the opening of Guy Fieri's Vegas Kitchen & Bar at The Quad Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Fieri is now set to launch three new concepts with the gaming-hospitality company in Atlantic City, Baltimore and Laughlin, Nevada.
"Guy's restaurants and menus are innovative, fun and his guests enjoy exceptional service combined with an entertaining experience. His style of hospitality could not be a better fit for the desires of our guests," said Tom Jenkin, Caesars Entertainment Global President of Destination Markets. "Guy's restaurant with us in Las Vegas has received rave reviews and we're thrilled to extend our partnership with him so that our guests across the country can enjoy his cuisine."
The three new restaurants, all slated to open later this year, will be located at Bally's Atlantic City, Horseshoe Baltimore and Harrah's Laughlin. Each concept will be unique and the menu adapted to highlight a regional focus. Fieri's Bally's Atlantic City location will offer a new unique twist on the classic steakhouse while Horseshoe Baltimore and Harrah's Laughlin will feature some of Guy's most popular dishes along with regional favorites.
"It is an honor to play with a championship team," said Fieri. "Getting the opportunity to open one restaurant with Caesars was great, but opening three more, in the same year, is amazing!"

We are looking forward to hearing the location within Harrah's Laughlin and what the menu (regional focus) will be.  Either way it is good news to hear of a new, higher profile dining spot coming to the area.

About Guy Fieri

Guy Fieri Restaurant coming to Laughlin?

Laughlin, NV

In April at the opening of his recent Las Vegas restaurant, Guy Fieri's Vegas Kitchen & Bar, Fieri told the Las Vegas Sun that he has "four restaurants getting ready to open up," including locations in Baltimore, Atlantic City, and Laughlin, Nevada.  





Fieri said, "some" concepts will be similar to Fieri's Vegas Kitchen, while "some will have a different concept. One's a steakhouse, one's a Mexican theme."  

Given that his new Vegas restaurant is at the Quad (operated by Caesars), it would be a natural conclusion that the location in Laughlin would be at Harrah's, which is also owned by Caesars Entertainment.  

Already there is the Range steakhouse and a Mexican spot, Baja Blue and Harrah's Laughlin.  There was also a Range Steakhouse at Harrah's in Las Vegas until it was changed to a Ruth Chris Steakhouse.  Is it probable or possible that the new Fieri Steakhouse in Laughlin will replace the Range?    

*Update May 28, 2014 - Press Release confirms new restaurant coming to Harrah's Laughlin



Guy Fieri is an Emmy Award-winning TV host, chef and restaurateur, and UNLV graduate. Most recently he hosts the Food Network’s top-rated show, “Diners, Drives-Ins and Dives.”
