Crack Shack at Park MGM almost ready to open

The construction walls remain in place, but it looks like they are wrapping up construction on The Crack Shack at Park MGM.  It is located in the front of the resort, on the Las Vegas Strip.

From MGM Resorts International: Park MGM will welcome The Crack Shack, a gourmet fried chicken eatery known for one-of-a-kind menu items, to the resort’s food and beverage portfolio in fall 2019. Created by The Crack Shack’s CEO Michael Rosen and celebrity chef Richard Blais, the three-meal casual dining venue will offer guests fried chicken, decadent sandwiches and unique menu offerings such as chicken oysters, mini biscuits, deviled eggs, Mexican poutine and more. A full bar and bar games also will be available.

Mama Rabbit & Tequila Bar at Park MGM Update

Mama Rabbit & Tequila Bar at Park MGM on the Las Vegas Strip will open on Wednesday, August 28th and it looks great.  Sneak peak photos posted below.

From MGM Resorts International: Curated by mezcalera Bricia Lopez, Mama Rabbit is an ode to mezcals and tequilas from across Mexico. Mama Rabbit takes its name from Mayahuel, the goddess of agave and fertility. Mayahuel was the mother of 400 rabbits that she nourished with mezcal and tequila, and thus Mama Rabbit was born. The brightly decorated 4,400 square foot space features a large double-sided bar, multiple rooms, live entertainment, roaming margarita carts and Las Vegas’ largest agave-based spirits selection hand-selected by Lopez, coined the “Oaxacan Princess” by the late Jonathan Gold of The Los Angeles Times. Serving a menu of tequilas, mezcals, signature craft cocktails and light bites, Mama Rabbit invites you to wander into the world of Oaxaca.
