Las Vegas has added another restaurant outside the Strip, this time on East Sunset Road, across from Harry Reid International Airport.
Significant Other Kitchen & Cocktails has opened with a 7,100-square-foot dining space, a modern American menu and seating for approximately 290 customers.
The $5.2 million project combines a restaurant, cocktail bar, private dining areas and an outdoor terrace.
Its location also makes it accessible to visitors staying outside the Strip or looking for a place to eat near the airport.
$5.2 Million Project Secures 7,100 Square Feet at 1725 E. Sunset
Significant Other Kitchen & Cocktails opened at 1725 E. Sunset Road, Suite 150, in Las Vegas.
The restaurant was developed by Mike and Kristi Austin, restaurateur Matthew Silverman and chef Matthew Piekarski.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the project cost $5.2 million and took 10 weeks to construct after approximately a year of design work.
“It took a year to design but 10 weeks to build,” Mike Austin said. “This was dirt 10 weeks ago. That’s why I’m older and fatter and grayer.”
The 7,100-square-foot property accommodates about 290 people across its dining rooms, bar and terrace. It also incorporates the new headquarters of Austin General Contracting, the company owned by Mike Austin.
The interior uses stone, marble, walnut, mahogany, leather and velvet, alongside artwork inspired by Japanese pop art and pieces depicting Audrey Hepburn and cherry blossoms.
One feature is a fireplace that uses water vapor to create the appearance of flames.
