Popular 24-hour family bakery and restaurant to open over next few months.
LAS VEGAS – Station Casinos announced today that it has expanded its partnership with Mancha Development Corporation to bring an additional four Coco’s Bakery Restaurants to Station Casinos’ properties including venues inside Palace Station, Boulder Station, Sunset Station and Texas Station. The popular 24-hour family dining restaurant made its Station Casinos debut in July with a successful opening inside Santa Fe Station and based on its immediate popularity with guests, the companies agreed to expand the relationship.
For more than 55 years, Coco’s Bakery and Restaurant has been serving up hearty breakfast, lunch and dinner specialties, but is probably best known for its bakeries that feature fresh baked pies, cakes, cookies, muffins and breads baked fresh daily at each location. Coco’s Bakery Restaurants will open at the four locations on or about: October 13 at Palace Station; October 27 at Boulder Station; November 10 at Sunset Station and December 1 at Texas Station. Coco’s will be located in the spaces formerly occupied by the Grand Café restaurants.
“When we considered bringing Coco’s into some of our casinos, we thought it would be a great fit with our existing dining offerings; but we wanted to gauge feedback from our guests at Santa Fe Station before we made a further commitment. Our guests made it clear from ‘day one’ that Coco’s was a winner,” Kevin Kelley, COO of Station Casinos said. “What’s most important to our guests is having a quality meal and a diverse menu at a great value and that’s at the core of the Coco’s brand.”
Coco’s Bakery Restaurant menu is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and features breakfast special such as the signature Mega Breakfast, the Angus Chicken-Fried Steak & Eggs and seasonal offerings, such as this summer’s strawberry-themed breakfast specials. Lunch and dinner offerings include an array of soup and salads, Angus burgers and steaks, fish and seafood, pasta, sandwiches and a “Fit and Lively” menu featuring a variety of menu items under 500 calories.
“There has been tremendous demand to expand Coco’s locations throughout Southern Nevada and by expanding our partnership with Station Casinos, it allows the community to access several convenient locations throughout the Valley to enjoy our restaurant and bakery,” said Vince Eupierre, chairman and CEO of Mancha Development Company.
Coco’s Bakery Restaurant is owned and operated by Mancha Development Company that owns 29 Denny’s locations, 44 Burger Kings and nine Coco’s locations throughout Nevada and Southern California. Mancha Development Company also owns and operates the six Denny’s locations inside Station Casinos’ Fiesta and Wildfire properties. Coco’s Bakery Restaurant has more than 100 locations throughout Arizona, California, Colorado and Nevada.

Jacktoberfest, poolside this Saturday at Sunset Station, is starting its own tradition of festive fun.
Jacktoberfest, to be held this Saturday (October 3) poolside at the beautiful Sunset Station Hotel & Casino in Henderson, Nev., has none of the history but all the festivity of the real Oktoberfest, which concludes Sunday in Germany. So while the two events may seem antithetical (that means opposites), here’s a quick light-hearted comparison that proves that ingenuity can, in some cases, makes up for a lack of tradition.
“Although it’s not quite as big as the original Oktoberfest and only one day, Jacktoberfest drew a crowd of nearly 2,000 out-of-towners and locals last year,” said Sunset Station Marketing Manager Nathan J. Sorenson, who will temporarily proclaim German heritage during the five hours, from 3pm – 8pm, of Jacktoberfest. “Being the ‘City of Entertainment,’ we felt it necessary to throw a party for what has been the largest fair in the world, Oktoberfest. We just put our spin on the festival with what we feel appeals to the people of Las Vegas.”
So, in conclusion, Oktoberfest and Jacktoberfest are both splendid events. It’s just that one is half way across the globe in some place called Bavaria while Jacktoberfest is right in your neighborhood.
Hope to see you at Jacktoberfest!

Taking your requests every Wed. & Thurs. nights at Palace Station's Jack's Pub.
A little bit Country, a little bit Rock ‘n Roll, Evenflow’s performances showcase the diverse musical influences of its band members. You can catch the band for free every Wednesday and Thursday from 7pm – 11pm at Jack’s Pub inside Palace Station. The Station Casinos blog caught up with Evenflow lead singer Scott Hartshorne for more information about the band.
What’s the band’s history?
Evenflow was built by Jason Tanzer of Dustree Productions here in Las Vegas. The band has been playing around Las Vegas for three years now.
Where are you guys from. Any band members Las Vegans?
I have been in Las Vegas for three years and I’m originally from Philadelphia. Alfonso (bassist Alfonso Bernal) IS a Las Vegan. Johnny (guitarist Johnny Douglas) is from Chicago and Device (drums) is from Colorado.
Is the band’s name from the Pearl Jam song, a philosophic statement about harmony in life, or something else?
More of a philosophic statement about harmony in life since we play just about everything from Johnny Cash to Metallica. That is what makes us so different. One minute we will be playing Neil Diamond and the next playing Whitesnake.
Who are your musical influences?
Everyone in the band has different musical influences, that is why you will hear us play, disco, country, alternative, metal, glam rock and good old rock n’ roll at our shows.
Does Evenflow have original songs or anything in the works?
We currently have no original music but it has been something we have talked about.
Finish this sentence: A night with Evenflow at Jack’s Pub is a night of…
A night with Evenflow at Jack’s Pub is a night of musical variety – in other words, you have no idea what we may play next! Come and join us every Wednesday and Thursday and let us entertain you!

LAS VEGAS –Station Casinos, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today that it and certain of its non-casino subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in Reno, Nevada.
Pursuant to an agreement with the Company’s senior secured lenders, none of the Company’s casino operating subsidiaries or affiliates were included in the Chapter 11 filings and the Company will continue normal operations at all of its properties under the direction of its existing management team. In addition to cash generated from its operating subsidiaries and affiliates, the Company has in place an agreement with its senior secured lenders that, subject to court approval, permits it to borrow, as needed, up to $150 million of cash from one of its non-operating subsidiaries.
“Station Casinos is a great company and our 18 Vegas casinos and resorts continue to generate positive cash flow, but the global recession has severely impacted our company, just as it has every other company in the gaming industry. The restructuring of our debt will provide us with the financial flexibility necessary to meet the challenges of the current economic environment. Equally important, it will provide the resources necessary for us to continue to invest in our properties, take advantage of opportunities as they arise and ultimately enable us to emerge as a stronger company,” said Frank J. Fertitta III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Station Casinos.
“All of our casinos will continue to operate as usual and we will continue to provide our guests with the same great value and entertainment choices they have always enjoyed at our properties,” said Kevin Kelley, Chief Operating Officer of Station Casinos. “From our loose slots, to honoring points earned in our Boarding Pass program to our great promotions and contests – like our upcoming Great Giveaway Football Contest, it’s business as usual at Station Casinos,” Kelley said.
“Just as importantly, our Team Members will see no difference in their jobs. We greatly value our Team Members and will do everything we can during these difficult economic times to reward them for their excellent performance,” Kelley said. “It’s no accident that Station was recognized by FORTUNE Magazine as one of the ‘100 Best Companies to Work For’ in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. We are committed to our Team Members, just as they are committed to us and to meeting the needs of our guests.”

The second Las Vegas-area Yard House restaurant will open this Spring at Red Rock Resort.
LAS VEGAS – Yard House, an award-winning Southern California-based restaurant known for its extensive menu of American fusion fare, contemporary music library and one of the world’s largest selections of draft beer, will open its second Las Vegas location this spring at Red Rock Resort. Yard House made its Las Vegas debut in early 2008 at Town Square Las Vegas, which is one of the company’s highest grossing restaurants.
Yard House, a concept that has revolutionized the restaurant industry, was built on the simple concept of great food, classic rock, and the world’s largest selection of draft beer. Guests will be treated to a menu of American fusion fare, 130 taps of beer, and a play list of music that ranges from classic rock to contemporary pop. The menu is the creation of award-winning Executive Chef and Partner Carlito Jocson, who takes American classic and adds flavors commonly used in Asian cooking, and features more than 100 items including appetizers, salads, sandwiches, rice and pasta dishes, as well as steak and seafood.
Perhaps the pulse of the operations is the glass-enclosed keg room, which houses as many as 600 kegs and some 1,000 gallons of beer at any given time. The keg room at the new Red Rock restaurant will be custom designed to allow restaurant guests to walk through the area. This restaurant will also feature the addition of exterior patio seating that will be adjacent to the existing water fountain pools located on the Charleston side of the resort property.
“We have been looking to open another location in Las Vegas, and Red Rock was at the top of our list,” says Harald Herrmann, partner and CEO of the company. “The Las Vegas market has been extremely successful for us and having two restaurants on different sides of town will better serve the community.”
Readers of the Las Vegas Review-Journal voted Yard House as the Best New Restaurant to Open in Las Vegas in 2008. Industry publications, including Nation’s Restaurant News and Cheers Magazine, have lauded Yard House as having the “Best Beer List.”
“We are thrilled to bring the extremely popular Yard House restaurant brand to our guests at Red Rock Resort,” said Kevin Kelley, chief operating officer for Station Casinos. “With the addition of Yard House, Red Rock Resort will truly have the most extensive and exciting dining choices available in the Las Vegas locals’ market.”
Yard House joins Red Rock’s award-winning restaurant selections that includes T-Bones Chophouse, Terra Rossa Italian, Hachi Modern Japanese, The Feast Buffet, the Grand Cafe, Cabo Mexican, LBS and a food court with seven additional food venues. The new Yard House restaurant will be located in the space formerly occupied by the Salt Lick BBQ restaurant.
Yard House locations cans be found throughout Southern California, greater Phoenix, south Florida, Waikiki Beach, Las Vegas, Kansas City and suburban Denver and Chicago. It will make its Texas debut this October in San Antonio followed by a location in Houston in November with Dedham, Mass., and Gulfstream, Fla. opening within the next year.
