Exciting new construction images for the soon-to-be world’s largest In-N-Out Burger surfaced on social media this week, causing burger enthusiasts to react as if a second secret menu has been revealed.
While an official launch date hasn’t been announced, construction is progressing swiftly, making a summer opening highly probable.
This location will offer an expansive 8,000 square feet of indoor dining as well as an additional 2,500 square feet on a terrace with sweeping views of the Strip. However, it won’t include the usual drive-thru, as accessing the third-floor roof deck of the BLVD retail complex poses a challenge for vehicles.
Additionally, a dedicated merchandise store will be on-site, simply because it’s Las Vegas.
Heart Troubles
The infamous Heart Attack Grill has closed its doors after 14 sensational years at the downtrodden Neonopolis mall. As noted by Vital Vegas, this homage to unhealthy eating was on financial life support for a solid year before ultimately closing on May 18.
Striking a balance between satire and reality, the Heart Attack Grill was infamous for its patrons wearing hospital gowns while enjoying “Quadruple Bypass” burgers, servers dressed as nurses, and offering free meals for anyone over 350 pounds, provided they weighed in publicly.
After a customer suffered a genuine heart attack mid-bite in 2012, owner Jon Basso turned what many would see as a tragedy into a marketing moment.
Before announcing its closure, Basso — who adopted the title “Dr. John” at the restaurant — unleashed a vigorous social media tirade criticizing Las Vegas for its increasing costs that exclude everyday people, replacing the city’s classic indulgences with corporate blandness.
“The genuine and substantial calories that have built our brand are now seen as distasteful by a city that has priced out the middle class and lost its charm in the process,” his statement proclaimed.
The situation was further exacerbated by the many deaths of Basso’s regular patrons.
New Food Ventures
This year, three new dining establishments are set to open in the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. Among them are Te’Amo Boba & Dessert, a teahouse and dessert shop expecting to launch this summer, and Pizza Rodizio, an all-you-can-eat concept debuting this fall.
A new food venue, Sourdough & Co., specializing in soups, salads, and sandwiches, will join the lineup in the Miracle Eats food court. It will be alongside SoulBelly BBQ, which was added to the food collective last month, taking over part of the space that once housed the beloved, budget-friendly Ocean One.

Meanwhile, Beard Papa’s, the Japanese cream puff chain, is set to close its only Las Vegas location on South Rainbow. After seven years of delicious shells and sweet fillings, the bakery took to Instagram to bid farewell to patrons before its closure on May 21. The brand will continue to operate across the nation.
