While Boyd Gaming hasn't officially announced the new food court concepts coming to its Suncoast casino, signage has revealed that the off-Strip property will be adding Steak 'n Shake and Huey Magoo's to its dining options. These two concepts are already successful at Boyd's Fremont Casino & Hotel food court, and the company is bringing them to Suncoast as part of a broader renovation and upgrade to the property.

Why it matters

The addition of popular fast-casual chains like Steak 'n Shake and Huey Magoo's to Suncoast's food court is part of a broader strategy by Boyd Gaming to modernize and upgrade its off-Strip properties to better compete with larger resorts like Red Rock Casino. As casino buffets have declined, food courts have become an increasingly important dining option for locals and visitors.

The details

Suncoast's new food court will feature Steak 'n Shake, known for its burgers and shakes, and Huey Magoo's, which specializes in handcrafted chicken tenders. These concepts are replacing the casino's previous buffet. Boyd Gaming has had success with both Steak 'n Shake and Huey Magoo's at its Fremont Casino & Hotel food court, which opened in 2023 and has seen little turnover in its vendor lineup.

  • Suncoast's food court renovations are part of a broader $650 million investment by Boyd Gaming across its Las Vegas casinos.
  • The Fremont Casino & Hotel food court opened in January 2023.
