Rivea is based on the original Rivea restaurant at St Tropez’s iconic Byblos Hotel (and a London outpost) and replaces Alain Ducasse's miX restaurant. Expect a similar offering, overseen by Rivea Executive Chef Bruno Riou; with a menu that blends French and Italian tastes but with West Coast sourced seasonal ingredients. This casually elegant re-designed 200-seat dining room (by acclaimed French-Canadian design duo Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku) provides a ‘chic, convivial and relaxed setting’ to enjoy the small 'sharing' plates incorporating the classic flavours and vivid colours of the Riviera, with a focus on vegetables and their diversity of their flavours and textures. A lighted “Wave Wall,” crafted by arranging hundreds of glass squares in a pattern mimicking the lapping motion of the Mediterranean Sea is the glistening focal point as well as the custom-designed glass chandelier composed of 15,000 hand-blown glass spheres made in Murano.
Skyfall Lounge is located adjacent to Rivea, offering 180-degree views of the city along with an evolving nightlife experience that gradually increases in tempo as the night progresses. The contemporary, theatre-style space (also designed by Jouin Manku) offers multiple levels creating optimal views of the sparkling Vegas skyline from every seat in the room, while an expansive outdoor patio offers a relaxing alfresco escape. Expect handcrafted cocktails created with artisanal liquor and spirits as well as craft beers and American wine selections with light bites from Rivea’s kitchen (think crispy Tigelle sandwiches with cured ham, tomato and basil; and Squid Fritters with spicy pink dipping sauce).
Chic & convivial dinners
Crispy Socca, a traditional cold cut board, stuffed baby vegetables, an original Niçoise salad in a chickpea wrap, Gilt-head Bream with a minestrone reduction and a lemon shortbread and Limoncello sorbet dessert.
