GRAND OPENING Coming For Rick Harrison's Pawn Plaza!

In anticipation of the summer 2015 grand opening, Rick Harrison, owner of Pawn Plaza, has announced his first three tenants today: Rick’s Rollin Smoke BBQ and Tavern, Poutine Vegas of Ontario’s Smoke’s Poutinerie and Rita’s Italian Ice. Poutine Vegas will serve an exclusive Poutine menu with its Signature Gravy, Fresh Hand-Cut Fries, Squeaky Cheese Curds and an unlimited combination of toppings like double-smoked bacon, flat iron steak, grilled chicken, caramelized onions, sautéed peppers and many more mouthwatering options. Rita’s Italian Ice, will feature custom Italian ices frozen custards, and Rick’s Rollin Smoke BBQ and Tavern is a Harrison family favorite. Rollin Smoke BBQ is known worldwide for their “Arkansas Style” southern hickory smoked BBQ meats and their “Hand-Rubbed” and Ole Hickory Pits smoked goodness. The restaurant will feature signature sandwiches and smoked meats, homemade sides and competition style BBQ ribs. The upstairs Tavern will overlook the Las Vegas Strip and will pour up to 16 beers on tap.

Rick’s Rollin Smoke BBQ and Tavern will be split over both levels with the Tavern being located upstairs. Vegas Poutine and Rita’s Italian Ice will be located on the first floor/lower level of the Plaza along with two to three other tenants and perhaps as many as eight to ten tenants upstairs on the second level. All three of these tenants are “first on the Strip” locations. Additionally, this marks only the second Smoke’s Poutinerie in the United States. Live entertainment on weekends in the rooftop Tavern will be a highlight of the Plaza.

Pawn Plaza is located at 725 Las Vegas Boulevard So., just south of the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, home to HISTORY’s “Pawn Stars.”  The Cubes housing each tenant are being produced by Xtreme Manufacturing with leasing by Cushman & Wakefield/Commerce.  There will be 72 Cubes combining for 36 structures and up to 16 retail spaces as well as four restrooms.  Many of the tenants will take up more than one Cube.  Pawn Plaza will be approximately 6,000 square feet of retail space and 6,000 square feet of balcony/patio space that will benefit greatly from the more than 4,000 visitors to the pawn shop each day due to the television show’s popularity.

“I couldn’t be more excited to see this development come to fruition.  It is extremely rewarding to be a part of the revitalization of downtown Las Vegas and provide locals and tourists more reasons to return to the 700 block of the Strip,” said Rick Harrison.

A summer grand opening celebration will be planned with a myriad of festivities with all four Pawn Stars in attendance. Pawn Plaza is expected to host quarterly events and partner with different non-profits to continue the philanthropic efforts originated by the Pawn Stars when they jettisoned to success just two months into their inaugural season.
