Mijo Modern Mexican Restaurant: Tastebuds travel south of the border at Mijo Modern Mexican Restaurant, where guests will embark on a journey to experience the diverse flavors of coastal Mexican cuisine and spirits within an immersive setting. Mijo will offer a progressive menu where prime meats, fresh whole fish, decadent desserts, and elevated street food favorites are presented with an unconventional twist. Guests can explore Mexico’s most beloved spirits with Mijo’s one-of-a-kind tequila and mezcal program guided by “catadores,” also known as tequila experts, in addition to tequila lockers that hold hidden gems. Inspired by the storied history and natural beauty found throughout Mexico, multiple rooms and an outdoor patio surrounded by lush greenery set the backdrop for Mijo’s alluring atmosphere, transporting guests to different parts of the country.
Bel-Aire Lounge: As the stunning centerpiece of Durango Casino & Resort’s main floor, Bel-Aire Lounge will seamlessly blend sophistication with high energy. Bel-Aire Lounge will bring together old-school glamour with contemporary flair; the chic cocktail bar will boast modern furnishings adorned with opulent gold and brass finishes, all complemented by the electrifying sounds of vinyl records spun by talented DJs and live music across various genres such as rock, hip-hop, pop, and indie. Alongside its captivating sounds, bartenders will be masters at crafting specialty cocktails that tantalize the palate. At the same time, a selection of sweet and savory small plates and desserts will complete the gastronomic experience.
