The Light Group Introduces Hearthstone Kitchen & Cellar At Red Rock Resort

LAS VEGAS, May 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Set to open in the fall of 2014 at Red Rock Resort, The Light Group Executive Chef and Partner Brian Massie introduces Hearthstone Kitchen & Cellar, a new Rustic American dining experience utilizing simple, seasonal and sustainable ingredients paired with masterfully hand-crafted cocktails and an extensive wine list.

Hearthstone's menu is designed using fresh and seasonal ingredients showcasing Rustic American dishes destined to be favorites among the locals and visitors alike. The restaurant's exhibition style wood-burning oven maximizes the flavors of Chef Massie's creations while igniting a full sensory experience. Whether visiting Hearthstone as an evening dining destination or for a bottle of wine with friends in the private enoteca, Hearthstone's offerings are thoughtfully fashioned with something for everyone.

Hearthstone's food concepts are crafted with sharing in mind, allowing everyone at the table to experience the natural-ingredient driven menu. Hearthstone offers a consistently changing menu of seasonal dishes with produce sourced from organic farmers and purveyors who practice sustainable agriculture. Executive Chef and Partner Brian Massie, known for his successful menus at FIX Restaurant & Bar at Bellagio, STACK Restaurant & Bar at The Mirage, Diablo's Cantina, Citizens Kitchen and Bar & Red Square at Mandalay Bay shares his vision of seasonality, simplicity, and quality to Hearthstone, resulting in a great neighborhood dining experience.

"I'm excited to introduce a great Rustic American concept with a consistently evolving menu. I'll be working hand in hand with organic farmers, ranchers, and fisherman who practice sustainable agriculture and share my passion for the craft," says Brian Massie, Executive Chef and Partner.

Whether looking to dine on the expansive outdoor patio, at the counter in front of the wood-burning oven, or at the chef's table in the private enoteca, Hearthstone offers every guest an oasis from the norm. A mixture of reclaimed wood, brick and raw materials fuse with a bohemian flare to create an eclectic vibe in the indoor and outdoor eatery.  

Hearthstone Kitchen & Cellar is part of Red Rock Resort's $35 million investment that includes the addition of new restaurants as well as a variety of renovations and enhancements taking place throughout the resort in 2014.
