Ellis Island Casino Tears Into Phase 2 Of $35 Million Off Strip Overhaul
Summary
Ellis Island Casino & Hotel is continuing a $35 million renovation, entering Phase 2 which focuses on updating its restaurants – Ellis Island BBQ, Village Pub & Café – and the karaoke lounge. This follows a Phase 1 that doubled the casino floor size, added a new bar with a large LED screen, and a Boomer’s Sportsbook. The current phase aims to refresh these spaces while maintaining the casino’s “Old Vegas” character and value-focused atmosphere, with completion expected by the end of the year. Designers are using brighter materials and wider sightlines to create a more social environment. Casino leadership assures patrons that the renovations will not impact the property’s affordable pricing and promotions, which are key to its appeal for locals and Strip workers.
