US.- Ojos Locos Sports Cantina y Casino at Hotel Jefe will open on Monday, February 6. The venue is a collaboration between Las Vegas-based Fifth Street Gaming and Dallas-based Ojos Locos Sports Cantina. It replaces the Lucky Club Hotel & Casino at 3227 Civic Center Drive in North Las Vegas.

According to the press release, the reimagined resort boasts a 10,000-square-foot casino and the Ojos Locos Sports Cantina. The restaurant can accommodate 300 guests while the new interior offers a “rustic welcoming vibe, with décor dominated by whitewashed, reclaimed wood and corrugated tin roofs reminiscent of the beachside bars typically seen at Mexico’s coastal resorts.”
