Miracle Mile Shops Shares Concepts for Upcoming Food Court
We’ve been sharing copious updates about the ongoing construction of Miracle Mile Shops’ new food court on the Twitters, and now the Strip mall has announced its first batch of concepts for the space.
Yes, it’s a food court, but it’s a slow news day, so suck it up, Lili Von Shtupp. Yes, we used that reference in another story yesterday, we are hoping it becomes a thing.
Miracle Mile Shops isn’t calling Miracle Eats a food court, of course, or even a “food hall.” It’s a “food collective,” mostly because we’re all doomed. The new food amalgam opens winter 2024.

The first six restaurants announced for the Miracle Mile Shops new food assemblage are: Fat Sal’s, Tacotarian, Carnegie Pizza, Dave’s Hot Chicken, Lobster ME and Fat Tuesday.
Of course there’s a Fat Tuesday slushy stand, it’s the law.
Two of the concepts in the Miracle Mile’s food agglomeration, Fat Sal’s and Tacotarian, are the first locations of these restaurants on the Las Vegas Strip. This is also the first Carnegie Pizza in Las Vegas.
Dave’s Hot Chicken and Lobster ME (the “ME” is capitalized because it’s the postal service abbreviation for Maine) are well-known Vegas favorites.

Here’s the short-attention-span version of each offering at the Miracle Mile’s new food compendium. Yes, we’re going to keep doing that. We are very bored.
Carnegie Pizza comes from Times Square, and this will be the brand’s first location to open since its debut in 2020. It’s pizza, which makes it the first option we’ll try when Miracle Eats opens.

Fat Sal’s has several locations in L.A., but we will try to not hold that against them.
It’s sandwiches and sides.

Tacotarian originated in Las Vegas and is a plant-based taco shop, thus making it the last concept we’re likely to try at Miracle Eats, if ever.

Dave’s Hot Chicken got its start as a pop-up in East Hollywood. Which is a common occurrence in East Hollywood, if you get our drift. Dave’s Hot Chicken has more than 200 locations and features chicken tenders and sliders, along with other popular sides. Spice levels range from “No Spice” for infants and the elderly to “Reaper,” which requires guests to sign a waiver before trying it. No, really.
Lobster ME was an existing restaurant at Miracle Mile Shops. The lobster-centric menu is getting a refresh.
If you don’t know Fat Tuesday, you may not be Vegas enough. This will be the mall’s second location. Fat Tuesday has delivered innumerable brain freezes and hangovers to Las Vegas visitors since 1951, a fun fact we just made up.
There just seems to be a lot of “fat” going on at Miracle Eats. Maybe it should be “Supersized Tuesday” or “Thickish Tuesday”? While we’re at it, how about “Playfully Plump Sal’s”? Would anyone be cool with “Thunder Thighs Tuesday” or “Lardass Sal’s”? This a complex issue, and as such we will not be addressing it here. It’s a blog. Hello.

The ultimate number of concepts in the new food aggregation hasn’t been determined yet, apparently. The news release says it could be “as many as 10 delectable food and beverage options.”
The new food court took out a couple of existing spots, including Cereal Killerz.
Appears Cereal Killerz Kitchen at Miracle Mile Shops has closed. Got some buzz when it opened, and the owners appeared on “Shark Tank.” (h/t @JamesInLasVegas) pic.twitter.com/ESWuq6sKRP

Food courts, sorry, “collectives,” are the new buffets in Las Vegas. Call them what you like, food amassments, food medleys, food conglomerations, food clusters or food aggregations, they provide reliable food at reasonable prices and get you back into the action as quickly as possible.
The new Miracle Eats is part of a major overhaul of Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. The mall originally opened in 2000 as Desert Passage.
The mall has gotten a serious refresh, inside and out.
Yes, it’s still a mall, but bless their hearts, they’re trying.
More Miracle Eats concepts will be announced at a later date.
We didn’t see anything about sushi or burgers. Again, it’s the law.
