Celebrity culinary and lifestyle guru Martha Stewart has opened her first restaurant, The Bedford by Martha Stewart, at Paris Las Vegas on 13AUG.
“The opening of The Bedford by Martha Stewart further establishes Paris Las Vegas as a must-visit culinary destination,” said Jason Gregorec, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Paris Las Vegas. “Martha Stewart and Marquee Brands are leaders in hospitality that inspire and draw fans from around the world, and we are honored to collaborate with such incredible partners.”
Developed by Martha and a team of experts, The Bedford’s menu features dishes from fresh ingredients sourced locally. Aiming to transport guests to an authentic dining experience at Martha Stewart’s country farmhouse, the restaurant boasts French-inspired cuisine and a combination of Martha’s favorite recipes.
For starters, guests can enjoy the Classic Niçoise Salad, made with olive oil-packed tuna, haricot verts, vermouth-dressed potatoes, hard-cooked egg and topped with an anchovy vinaigrette. Seafood enthusiasts can delight in the Oysters Rockefeller, baked with Pernod cream, spinach and watercress, and finished with a parsley breadcrumb topping.
For the main course, guests can enjoy tableside presentations, including a Whole Roast Herb Chicken, carved tableside and Martha’s Smashed Baked Potato, prepared tableside and served with crème fraiche, chives and bacon lardons or for those looking to indulge, Golden Osteria caviar. One of Martha’s signature desserts is the Upside-Down Lemon Meringue Pie, which consists of a crisp meringue crust, tart lemon filling and a whipped cream topping.
“I am so thrilled to open the doors to The Bedford at Paris Las Vegas, my first-ever restaurant,” said Martha Stewart. “We have worked tirelessly to bring my farmhouse in Bedford, New York to life in Las Vegas, and I think visitors will be enchanted by what we have come up with. These are the same dishes that I serve to family and friends in my own home.”
Guests can also enjoy signature cocktails, including the Martha-tini, made with Żubrówka bison grass vodka, dry vermouth and a lemon twist, and the Frozen Pomegranate Martha-rita, created with Casa Dragones Blanco tequila, Cointreau, pomegranate juice, and a salt and sugar rim. Additionally, the restaurant features Martha’s Chard, her California chardonnay from 19 Crimes.
Designed by Stewart herself, the 194-seat dining destination offers guests an "authentic glimpse" of how Martha lives and entertains in her own home. The Bedford by Martha Stewart draws inspiration from her 1925 country farmhouse, including an accurate replica of her own brown faux-bois dining room. Martha's "functional and practical" lifestyle takes center stage in her appointed décor, which embraces a neutral, subtle color palette as a backdrop to four seasons of color. Additional elements inside The Bedford include a kitchen space with white marble counters, stainless steel appliances and gray wood cabinets. Hanging copper pans in a variety of sizes from the MARTHA by Martha Stewart collection also adorn the kitchen area.
The Bedford by Martha Stewart at Paris Las Vegas will be open for dinner from 5 to 10:30 p.m. local time daily and is near Nobu at Paris Las Vegas and across from Bobby’s Burgers by Bobby Flay.
