In
honor of National Shrimp Day, Golden Gate Hotel & Casino is rolling back
the price of its famous shrimp cocktail to just 50 cents – the price it was in
1959 when the property introduced the “Original Shrimp Cocktail” to Las Vegas.
From 2 – 5 p.m. on Friday, May 10, guests are invited to stop by Du-par’s
Restaurant to enjoy the seafood snack at the special celebratory price.*
Golden
Gate founding partner Italo Ghelfi was inspired to bring the San Francisco
staple to Sin City in the late 50s, starting a tradition spanning several
decades and 40 million shrimp cocktails (that’s more than a billion individual
shrimp!)
Golden
Gate’s shrimp cocktail boasts a heap of ocean shrimp served in a classic
“tulip” sundae glass, topped with a secret spicy cocktail sauce and garnished
with a fresh lemon wedge. Staying true to tradition, the recently remodeled
downtown property continues to serve it the same way and is proud to offer the
“best tail in town!” A favorite among both locals and tourists, it is voted
“Best Shrimp Cocktail” year after year.
*One
shrimp cocktail per person. While supplies last.
About
Golden Gate Hotel & Casino
The
Golden Gate is Las Vegas’ most historic hotel and casino, opening in 1906 at
One Fremont Street. Its legacy spans the
birth of Las Vegas, the Roaring 20s and the Rat Pack era. The Golden Gate
recently completed its first major expansion in 50 years, adding a
35,000-square-foot luxury tower with 16 suites, an expanded gaming floor with a
high-limit pit featuring its signature dancing dealers, and a new lobby

The result is an intimate, boutique hotel/casino that is energetic and

the Fremont Street Experience with the biggest video screen on the planet – 10

when it introduced its world famous shrimp cocktail in 1959. What happens in Vegas … started here!
