Popular Asian Restaurant Closing Its Las Vegas Strip Location
Famous international Chinese restaurant chain Mr. Chow has shut down its Las Vegas location. Founded in the 1960s by British-Chinese restauranteur and artist Michael Chow, Mr. Chow has locations in London, Beverly Hills, New York City, Miami and Riyadh. 'Mr. Chow features elegant white, modern decor with one-of-a-kind design elements including a kinetic 'moon' sculpture that hangs over the main dining room," said the chain's official website. "Touches like the sculpture add a bit of a show element to your meal and that's exactly what Mr. Chow likes to do. Not only is it a culinary experience, you'll also be entertained during your evening. The sculpture is suspended from a domed ceiling in the center of the room and it comes to life every 20 minutes slowly morphing into different shapes.' The Las Vegas iteration was the seventh Mr. Chow outpost to open. Located inside Caesars Palace, the establishment opened its doors in 2016 and quickly became a celebrity hotspot. However, after nearly a decade in business, the Las Vegas Mr. Chow shut down following its final day of service on May 17. "Business levels are the culprit, as well as the terrible location with low visibility in the sprawling resort. There are no current plans for what will replace Mr. Chow on the second floor of Caesars Palace in the Forum Tower," reported Vital Vegas. In its nine years in business, Mr. Chow served high-end Beijing-style cuisine to Caesars Palace patrons under the famous "Moon" sculpture, designed by Chow himself. Popular menu items included Beijing duck, Mr. Chow noodles, salt and pepper prawns, Dungeness crab and other traditional dishes.

Iconic Chinese Restaurant Closes on the Las Vegas Strip
With its Champagne lounge, tableside-prepared Mr. Chow noodles, and 3,800-pound kinetic sculpture based on the moon, Mr. Chow at Caesars Palace was the kind of dining experience one could only find in Las Vegas. After a nine-year run as one of the best Chinese restaurants in Las Vegas, Mr. Chow closed permanently on Saturday, May 17, as Caesars Entertainment confirmed to Eater Vegas. Mr. Chow Las Vegas debuted in 2016, bringing high-end Beijing-style cuisine to a dramatic two-story space above the casino floor. Guests arrived via private elevators to a sleek white dining room overlooking the Garden of the Gods pool, anchored by The Moon — a massive kinetic sculpture designed by Michael Chow himself. Michael Chow, the restaurateur, designer, and artist behind Mr. Chow has personally overseen the design of every restaurant location since launching the original in London in 1968, including outposts in New York, Beverly Hills, Miami, and Saudi Arabia. 'Each space tells me what to do, and the Las Vegas one offered me a 60-foot-diameter, 35-foot-high dome,' Chow told Architectural Digest of the Caesars Palace outpost in 2016. He designed a giant 3,800-pound, 26-foot-diameter kinetic sculpture that loomed over the dining room and sprang to life every 35 minutes. 'It's basically this romantic idea of dining under the moon, but with a Close Encounters of the Third Kind twist,' Chow told AD . Dishes in the glossy white restaurant were served family-style, with the Beijing duck as the signature offering — its dramatic tableside carving verging on performance art, even without the lunar theatrics overhead. The hand-pulled Mr. Chow noodles provided a similar spectacle, with chefs expertly stretching and spinning dough into long, delicate ribbons before diners' eyes. Other standouts included glazed prawns with walnuts, delicately seasoned green prawns, and a house-specialty Dungeness crab — rich crabmeat folded into pillowy egg whites and served in the shell. Caesars Entertainment did not offer a reason for the closure or comment on future plans for the space. Meanwhile, another celebrity chef has made a recent debut at the resort: José Andrés opened a Las Vegas outpost of Zaytinya in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace on May 13. Sign up for our newsletter.
