Slater's 50/50 - Lake Mead Blvd

"You may want to wait until you get home to dive into these burgers with both hands and plenty of napkins. With a mix of 50 percent ground bacon and 50 percent ground beef, these burgers are piled high with toppings. Also available are loaded fries, hot chicken sandwiches, flatbreads, desserts, and growlers." - Janna Karel

"Three years after opening its first location in Silverado Ranch, Slater’s 50/50 eyes a second, debuting on the edge of Summerlin as soon as early 2022. The combination of half ground beef and half ground bacon burger patties takes over the former Osaka space at Lake Mead Boulevard and Buffalo Drive. Co-owner Andy Kao says he was slowly looking from a second location when the space became available. “It’s one of those opportunities for a fantastic location that doesn’t come around very often,” he says." - Susan Stapleton

"The restaurant offers a Wake N’Bacon brunch every Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. with bottomless mimosas and items like pork belly Benedict, breakfast flatbread, and fried chicken and bacon pancakes." - Susan Stapleton

"First announced to be expanding to Las Vegas back in September, California-based “meat candy” experts Slater’s 50/50 will be spreading the word of “Burgers, Bacon & Beer” in the southeast later this year. The upscale casual chain achieved fame for its half ground beef and half ground bacon burger patties and will be taking over the distinctive, round cornered site of the New Day Café, close to the intersection of Silverado Ranch Boulevard and Bermuda Road. The breakfast and lunch spot that opened in 2012, a sequel to the cafe in Henderson, remains open for business. Created by Scott Slater, the “Baron of Bacon,” the menu at Slater’s 50/50 includes a wide collection of burger choices, including unconventional ingredient combinations, such as the “Peanut Butter and Jealousy,” made with “100% Black Canyon Angus beef, thick-cut bacon, peanut butter and strawberry jelly.” The restaurant also serves twists on a regular hot dog, shared dishes such as crispy Brussels sprouts, chicken sandwiches, wings, salads, and ”panko-breaded pickles with honey mustard” dubbed “frickles.” Las Vegas will add local and regional craft beer on tap and the menus will note recommended beer pairings for each entree. An estimated opening date for Slater’s 50/50 has not been announced." - Bradley Martin
