Jason Aldean. | TC Restaurant Group The “Try That in a Small Town” singer returns to Vegas with a honky-tonk of his own The Nashvillification of Las Vegas is in full swing, as another country music superstar hits the Strip with a multi-story honky-tonk bar and restaurant. On the heels of Blake Shelton’s debut of his four-story Ole Red, Jason Aldean is moving in across the street later this year with Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Bar, a live music venue with multiple bars, a restaurant serving Southern comfort food, skyline-facing patios, and a celebrity-ready recording studio. Aldean’s bar is moving into 63 City Center, the new building at the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Harmon Avenue, facing the Planet Hollywood casino. The $20 million Ocean Prime steakhouse became the building’s first tenant last year. The bar’s fourth location will occupy 22,500 square feet across two stories and include two music stages for live performances, seven bars, and a wraparound patio, according to a news release. The main dining area will accommodate more than 250 customers. Upstairs, a second floor is embellished with velvet-tufted booths, resident DJs, an additional live music stage, and a VIP bottle service section. Jason Aldean’s Kitchen + Bar is operated by TC Restaurant Group, the company behind country music-themed bars like Luke Bryan’s 32 Bridge, Miranda Lambert’s Casa Rosa, Morgan Wallen’s This Bar, and Lainey Wilson’s Bell Bottoms Up.

Southern-style dishes hitting the combined dance floor and dining room space will include macaroni and cheese, grandma’s pot roast — so named for its origin in the Aldean family recipe book, a peach cobbler, and a 32-ounce tomahawk rib-eye. The restaurant will also carve out space for a live on-air iHeartRadio studio for producing daily interviews with musicians and celebrities. The Kitchen and Bar is slated to open this fall. In addition to Shelton’s popular brick-enclosed honky-tonk across the street, Aldean’s bar will join the Strip’s budding country music scene, with the likes of Losers Bar, Gilley’s Saloon, Dance Hall & Bar-B-Que, and Stoneys Rockin Country. The “Try That in a Small Town” singer has a tragic history with Las Vegas. He was performing on stage at the Route 91 Harvest country music festival on October 1, 2017, when a gunman began firing into the crowd, resulting in 60 deaths and hundreds wounded. Aldean expressed his condolences on Instagram following the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history. The venue is expected to open to the public in early fall.
