Steve Wynn’s Las Vegas restaurant to be named “Sinatra”

From NJ.com:

The legendary Frank Sinatra mystique will thrive once again on the Las Vegas strip.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that casino mogul Steve Wynn will open a new Italian restaurant called Sinatra in his new resort Encore.

Wynn says the the Sinatra clan has loaned him such priceless memorabilia as the singer’s 1953 Oscar and several Grammy awards which will be peppered throughout the eatery. What’s more, Paul Anka has also promised the gold record he won for writing the English lyrics for “My Way.”

Considering that the Sinatra family fiercely protects the singer’s image, permission to use the Chairman’s moniker may be considered a coup. Still, Wynn and the singer have Sin City history together. The hotelier revitalized the Golden Nugget when he snagged ‘Ol Blue Eyes to appear exclusively at the hotel during the ’80s.
