A decadent dining and lounge experience by Caesars Entertainment
and Tao Group Hospitality is opening soon at Planet Hollywood
Resort & Casino. Caramella, a new Italian restaurant with an
expansive terrace overlooking The Strip and a swanky cocktail
lounge, is now accepting reservations via OpenTable.
“We are so fortunate to partner with Tao Group Hospitality again
to create a fun and dynamic destination restaurant and lounge,”
said Ken Ostempowski, SVP and General Manager of Planet Hollywood
Resort & Casino. “Caramella is the perfect place to enjoy
dinner and drinks before a concert at PH Live or dine al fresco on
the terrace with spectacular views of the Las Vegas Strip. We look
forward to welcoming our guests very soon.”
Designed by Fettle, Caramella is part restaurant and part
lounge, drawing inspiration from 1970s Italy. Upon entry, guests
are taken through a velvet vestibule, where a Murano glass
chandelier hovers above, creating the focal points of the bar and
lounge and setting the tone for the spaces that follow. Glossy
finishes and backlit onyx walls adorn the restaurant and represent
the spirit of the era.
A candy shop stacked with Italian treats from top to bottom sits
in the center of the restaurant. Behind a secret door within the
shop is a kitsch, moody lounge dressed in ‘70s wallpaper and
centered around a mirror mosaic DJ booth. A mix of layered leopard
print fabrics and geometric rugs add an edge of whimsy to the
aesthetic of the lounge.
Tao Group Hospitality’s Chief Culinary Officer, Ralph
Scamardella, has created an incredible menu, including original
takes on regional Italian favorites, indulgent pastas and a
selection of meats served Tuscan-style with decadent sides à la
carte.
Diners can dive into a variety of appetizers to start. The
Bone Marrow Surf & Turf features rock shrimp drizzled in
garlic butter, while the Wagyu Beef Tartare is accompanied
by cornichons, Dijon mustard and a fried egg.
An Italian eatery would not be complete without a selection of
delicious pastas, such as the Blue Crab Malfadine, made with
lemon, heavy cream and topped with toasted breadcrumbs, or the
Cavatelli Bolognese, a dish of ground veal, tomato and
parmesan. Another favorite is the Baked Manicotti with
ricotta, spinach and marinara. Additionally, seafood entree options
range from Grilled Octopus to a 2-pound Lobster
Arrabiata.
Guests can also choose from a lineup of creative cocktails,
including the Midnight Oil, a bold, rich concoction
featuring Pendleton Midnight Whisky, Amaro Nonino Quintessentia,
oleo saccharum, angostura and cardamom bitters, or La
Granita, a cool and fruity option with Maestro Dobel Diamante
Tequila, orangecello, grapefruit, lemon and prosecco.
Those seeking a sweet ending to their meal can indulge in a
selection of standout desserts, including the Signature
Caramella Tart, with dark chocolate custard and salted caramel,
as well as the NY-Style Cheesecake, topped with raspberry
coulis and fresh berries.
Caramella is an expansion of Tao Group Hospitality’s partnership
with Caesars Entertainment, which includes OMNIA Nightclub and
Stanton Social Prime at Caesars Palace.
Caramella is on the Mezzanine level of Planet Hollywood next to
the Criss Angel Theater. The restaurant is open from 4 to 10 p.m.
nightly, and the lounge is open from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. Thursday
through Sunday. For more information, guests can visit
