Located near the Flamingo's main showroom, the food court has five eateries, including Johnny Rockets, all managed by Fifth Avenue Restaurant Group. The Nevada-based multi-unit franchise company also owns Johnny Rockets in the Venetian Hotel & Casino, Fashion Show Mall and Meadows Mall.

"Our company has been successful in developing restaurants in the Las Vegas market since 1993," said Franchise Partner and Fifth Avenue Restaurant Group President Frank Bonanno.

"Casinos have proven to be very profitable for Johnny Rockets franchise partners," added Johnny Rockets' Vice President of Brand Marketing Cozette Phifer Koerber. "Another location on the Las Vegas strip is a great addition to our portfolio, and we look forward to opening more restaurants in casinos over the coming years."
