The Front Yard at Ellis Island Hotel, Casino & Brewery, next month is transforming its restaurant’s second floor into a “delightfully kitschy, tiki bar escape,” called The Island at Ellis, according to a press Thursday.
The summer soiree is around for a limited time only, operating from June 3 until July 4, 2021.
“We can’t wait for the launch of The Island at Ellis,” Christina Ellis, said director of marketing, said. “We have really enjoyed decorating and transforming the restaurant, and we knew now was the perfect time to take it to the next level.”
Stepping into this all-day oasis, sponsored by Bacardi, guests will be greeted by a 15-foot swordfish, staff decked out in Hawaiian-themed attire, and tiki-style vignettes throughout the space.
But no tiki bar is complete without tropical favorites, and The Front Yard’s Tiki Bar will be serving up dishes such as a Teriyaki Chicken Burger, Tiki Quesadilla, and Coconut Shrimp, only available on the second level of the restaurant.
Ten boozy island-themed specialty drinks will also be available, with beer cocktails and Ellis Island spins on Tiki classics, multiple served as individual cocktails or in punch bowls for a crowd.
In addition to the specialty Island at Ellis offerings, The Front Yard’s brunch and dinner menus will be available, with fan favorites like Stuffed Crunch Toast, Salmon and Lox Flatbread, Bacon Mac & Cheese, a Giant Pretzel, and more. All of Ellis Island’s beers will also be on the menu, served in glassware made specifically for the pop-up.
And it would not be Vegas without a little gambling! Two blackjack tables will add some Sin City flare and a variety of slots will be available to play in a lounge area located by the Terrace Bar.
Starting June 3, the Tiki Bar will be open Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. to midnight, Mondays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and 4 to 10 p.m., and Tuesdays through Thursdays from 4 to 10 p.m.
