A First Look Inside David Chang’s Majordomo Meat & Fish

Chef and Ugly Delicious host David Chang’s Majordomo Meat & Fish at the Palazzo brings an 11,000-square-foot restaurant designed by DesignAgency based in Toronto. The restaurant features a bar and lounge to the right of the entrance, a raw bar that leads to the main dining room to the left, a wine room, a second dining room in the back, and a private dining room.

Textured gray tile with black steel windows, walnut trim, and halo-lit brass and neon signs greets diners at the entrance. Punched windows open to a view of the casino floor, and pedestrians entering the resort from the corner entrance can look inside the restaurant. The entrance even features 20-foot high illuminated butcher cases with a dry-aged meat display.

The main dining room features hand-glazed wall tiles, walnut trim, and dark stained wood panels. Custom oversized pendants, a nod to the original Majordōmo in Los Angeles, illuminate the booths and banquettes.

In the bar and lounge, a ship deck floor, black-and-white grid ceiling, and fishhook shaped bar await. Glazed green terra cotta tiles topped by a dark gray concrete line the bar with a terrazzo countertop and a crown of blackened steel, brass, and fluted glass boxes for displaying liquor bottles. Black leather Token Catenary stools line the bar while seafoam-colored upholstered leather booths line the back wall.

The bar also features a curvilinear raw bar with 11 wraparound barstools. Majordomo uses the raw bar as a connection to the dining room and as a way to introduce diners to the kitchen. Table-side trolley service enhances that connection.

A second dining room doubles as the wine cellar with walnut wood wall paneling and bluish-green and black checkered floor tiles from Concrete Collaborative. The low coffered ceiling features inset lighting and illuminated wine displays that give this space a warmer ambiance.

The second dining room at Majordomo

The back dining room is a bit more intimate with deep blue rib tufted wall paneling and a custom designed table for 12 made from a live edge walnut slab with concrete inlay. Globe pendant lighting by Rich Brilliant Willing, a custom art piece by artist Alabaster Pizzo, and onggi (Korean fermenting jars) by Eunbi Cho round out the room.
