    The Mayfair Supper Club reopened at Bellagio on New Year’s Eve with a fully reworked production and expanded menu, marking the venue’s first major creative overhaul since opening in 2019. The relaunch introduced a new nightly show produced by Outside The Box Amusements, the entertainment company known for staging Usher’s Las Vegas productions at Caesars Palace and Park MGM.

    The new Mayfair production is built as a continuous, dinner‑integrated performance featuring a cast of 16 aerialists, dancers, musicians, and specialty artists. The show unfolds in segments throughout the evening, blending live music, choreography, and acrobatics around the dining room’s existing layout and its view of the Bellagio fountains. This production replaces a previous show staged by No Ceilings Entertainment, which ran for six years.

    Alongside the entertainment overhaul, Mayfair’s culinary team has introduced more than a dozen new dishes. The updated menu keeps long‑running staples such as Prime Rib and Roasted Half Chicken but adds a series of visually driven, high‑end plates.

    New items include Wagyu Wonton Soup, Caviar Frites, a King Crab California Roll, a Surf & Turf Roll, and General K’s Hot & Sour Lobster, a large‑format dish served family‑style.

    Chinatown Update

    Pho So 1 at 4745 Spring Mountain Road, which actually predated Las Vegas’ Chinatown, has officially closed after 31 years. As Chinatownvegas.com reported, the beloved Vietnamese eatery — known for its beef noodle soup — shut its doors for “intense repairs” back in November. But that temporary closure turned permanent, as relayed by a statement from the owners on January 2. However, the restaurant’s farewell included a promise that “we will be back.”

    The Cheongdam Food Hall is not Las Vegas’ first Asian food hall — that was the one Lucky Dragon Hotel & Casino ran while it briefly operated from December 2016 to January 2018 — but it’s definitely the first Las Vegas restaurant to take over a former drugstore. The food hall opened last month at 8610 Spring Mountain Road in Chinatown, in one of the 1,000 stores closed by Rite Aid in 2025. It features Korean cuisine from Star Kisa House, Namsan Tonkatsu and the sandwich shop Downtowner; all-you-can-eat sushi by Smile Shota; poke from GT Poke; and spicier Japanese fare from Curry-Ya.

    Dining Ins & Outs

    Hash House A Go Go, the breakfast chain famous for truck wheel-sized pancakes, has closed at the Rio, where it opened in 2007. The casino has filled the space with a breakfast and lunch spot called The Kitchen Table, which opened December 29. (See Vital Vegas’ story here.) Hash House locations are still open at the Linq, the Plaza Hotel downtown and at 6800 W. Sahara Ave.

    Also opening at the Rio will be “@Pizza” this spring. Unlike most pizzerias, this one will exclusively serve up oval-shaped stuffed-crust pies. And, unlike most businesses introduced by East Coast-based Latitude Food Group, the location will be owned and operated directly by the casino.

    Seoul Bird has flown the Aria coup. It was replaced at the Proper Eats Food Hall earlier this month with Lucky Bird, another chicken tender food station from Clique Hospitality that only had to change half its former sign.

    Finney’s Crafthouse, a gastropub based in Southern California, is opening in both Downtown Summerlin and Town Square, according to Clark County permit records.

    A new all-you-can-eat sushi spot is coming soon to Charlotte.

    Shinjuku Station revolving sushi bar will set up shop in the Grande Promenade shopping center in University City, per the restaurant’s website, though an official opening date wasn’t announced.

    It marks the restaurant’s second North Carolina location, joining an existing spot in High Point that opened in January 2025. Shinjuku Station will also open locations in Raleigh and Winston-Salem, its website says.

    A wide shot shows a two-story outdoor shopping center with several businesses, including Thai House, Staffmark, and OneMain Financial. Various cars and a silver pickup truck are parked in the asphalt lot in the foreground under a clear blue sky.

    Sushi lovers can look forward to premium sushi, nigiri and more than a dozen specialty rolls, according to an online menu. Appetizers include classics like crab rangoon, shrimp skewers and fried calamari, just to name a few.

    As far as entrees, guests can pick from chicken teryaki, tonkatsu ramen and steak hibachi.

    “We’re creating a space where flavors pop, where every roll and dish is a moment to savor,” the restaurant’s website says. “Our brand embodies the energy and joy of a bustling Shinjuku night, with bold, playful visuals and tech-driven dining designed to make each visit feel fresh, exciting, and new.”

    CharlotteFive reached out to Shinjuku Station for more information Jan. 5 and was awaiting a response.

  • New all-you-can-eat sushi spot opening soon in Pineville. Here’s what to expect

    Yiding Hot Pot has closed, and a new restaurant is in the works for the location: OG Asian Eatery + KTV.

    Hot pot and sushi lovers, rejoice. There’s a new Asian restaurant opening soon in Pineville.

    The OG Asian Eatery + KTV will set up shop in The Centrum shopping center, taking over the suite once occupied by Yiding Hot Pot, Sushi + More, according to the restaurant’s website.

    The latter quietly closed its doors in early October after just two years in business, CharlotteFive previously reported. There, customers were invited to fill piping hot bowls of broth with noodles, seafood, vegetables and more — all delivered via a pair of robot servers.

    Guests will find similar fare at The OG, though an official opening date hasn’t been announced. Beyond hot pot, customers can fill up on all-you-can-eat sushi, dim sum and barbecue skewers, according to the restaurant’s website.

    Cheese wontons and bang bang shrimp are on the menu, as are tonkotsu ramen, fried dumplings and miso udon.

    “Don’t forget to pair your meal with our selection of Asian beer, Sake, or Soju, and finish off with refreshing bubble tea,” the restaurant’s website says.

    Plus, private KTV (karaoke television) rooms with “immersive sound systems and a massive song selection” are available for groups looking to belt out off-key versions of their favorite songs.

    CharlotteFive has reached out to OG Asian Eatery for more information.
