The beverage program will showcase craft tequilas, craft mezcals and creative cocktails. Leoncito, a modern Mexican restaurant, will offer a menu that celebrates the vibrant flavors of several Mexican cities and regions, including Baja, Zihuatanejo, Mexico City, Oaxaca and Yucatán. “We want to create a dining experience that fully encompasses the touch, smell and taste of the country’s rich history.” “Leoncito is an homage to the incredible memories and experiences I’ve had in Mexico - a country I have so much love and respect for,” said Nick Mathers, owner of Wish You Were Here Group.
Hearthstone, which served rustic wood-fire American dishes, closed April 30 after nearly a decade.Ībout two weeks before the closing, the RJ broke the news that a Mexican restaurant created by Wish You Were Here Group hospitality would launch in the Hearthstone Kitchen space, but the name and details were not known until now. Leoncito - Spanish for “little lion” - is scheduled to open in October in the former Hearthstone Kitchen &Cellar at Red Rock Resort, the property shared first with the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The little lion is coming to Red Rock Resort.
