Lupo Gets Gussied Up Just in Time for Christmas

Wolfgang Puck's Trattoria del Lupo joins the makeover fray over at Mandalay Bay. The restaurant shut down on Monday for about two weeks to undergo a quickie renovation.

The restaurant plans to redo the bar with new back bar and reface of the bar itself, which will be lined with new bar stools. New wine shelves and lighting go into the existing attached wine room. Local art will line the walls, while the lighting throughout the restaurant gets an update. An oil-rubbed finish will show up on the original brass accents in the restaurant.

Even the private dining room gets an update with mirrored-finish walls, new light fixtures and the enclosure of an existing double-door entry into the kitchen.

Also new, a pizza, sandwich and light appetizer counter will be created across from the exhibition kitchen for additional dinner seating and late-night dining.

Look for Lupo to reopen by Dec. 23.
