"A 24-hour comfort-food destination and conventioneer favorite for casino coffee-shop staples since its debut in early 2013 at Mandalay Bay, this restaurant was preparing to adapt its serving practices once Gov. Steve Sisolak lifts the statewide directive closing dine-in restaurants and casinos to curb the spread of COVID-19. Ahead of the resort’s eventual return, initial paperwork allocated an estimated $45,000 to remodel the contact-free walk-up quick-service counter that previously featured wraps, salads, sandwiches, and desserts before Mandalay Bay closed in March; parent company SBE has confirmed the changes and said the final budget will be substantially higher at $200,000, with work scheduled to begin in May. Despite citywide hour reductions by MGM Resorts, the spot had remained open 24 hours as of March 14." - Bradley Martin
