"A Blake Shelton–owned honky-tonk on the Strip that serves as a high-profile live-music and nightlife landmark adjacent to other major venues." - Janna Karel
"The Kitchen + Bar opens the same year as the Vegas outpost of Blake Shelton’s Nashville-based, brick-laden Ole Red, which debuted on the other side of Las Vegas Boulevard in January — the two bars join the city’s budding country scene, one that for years has really only included Losers Bar, Gilley’s Saloon, Dance Hall & Bar-B-Que, and Stoneys Rockin Country." - Janna Karel
"If it’s a Broadway-honky-tonk-or-bust New Year’s Eve situation, head to Ole Red for a barrage of country performances, cocktails, and a full kitchen menu. For $75, you can opt for a fast pass that puts you in front of the line, or splurge for a $250-$500 VIP table that includes a fast pass to skip the line, access to all floors, one dedicated server for the table, and a complimentary bottle of bubbles for the midnight toast. Tickets are available here." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
"A newcomer to Broadway from Blake Shelton, the country music superstar and host of NBC’s The Voice, Ole Red places an even greater emphasis on music and food than most of its honky-tonk neighbors. As its focal point, the main level has a giant, concert-quality stage welcoming up-and-coming artists nightly, and the chic VIP rooftop patio called the Lookout hosts exclusive acoustic performances. You can sip cocktails and dine on brisket, shrimp and grits, and smoked pork chops throughout the venue. The growing chain also has a location at the Nashville International Airport (BNA)." - Kellie Walton
"Keeping on theme, country artist Blake Shelton’s Ole Red is a Broadway hotspot with live music all day." - Kellie Walton
