W Scottsdale Readies for Opening with Sushi Roku Announcement
[Second Update: Opening has been pushed back to May 27, 2008. Way to go W.]
[Update: The W Hotel itself will open late Spring, according to PR reps and not on March 20th.]
More W Hotels news for you today.
Sushi Roku, a popular LA sushi chain, is opening up its fifth location in the new W Hotel & Residences Scottsdale in late April 2008. There are already Sushi Rokus in Los Angeles, Pasadena, Santa Monica and Las Vegas (in the Forum Shoppes.)
Brought to the hotel by the Innovative Dining Group, Sushi Roku will be helmed by executive chef Tim Fields (formerly of the Boulders Resort) and will feature traditional sushi/sashimi option as well as some Sushi Roku faves. It will also serve up breakfast with entrees like the Fresh Herb and Cheese Omelet ($14) and Homemade Oat and Almond Granola ($11). Gotta love those hotel prices!
The 6,000-sq-ft. restaurant like all other Rokus has been designed by the group at Dodd Mitchell's DMD & Associates. Natural materials, including large boulders, teak woods, and black slate will give the place its signature Roku look.
Fortunately hotel guests will be able to benefit from some in-room dining.
In addition, room service choices will incorporate a selection of sushi items from the Sushi Roku restaurant menu, including tantalizing options such as "Sushi in Bed."
Considering that we order Sushi Roku takeout from the Santa Monica location somewhat frequently, "Sushi in Bed" actually sounds delightful.
As for the W Hotel itself, the place will open on March 20, 2008. Expect all standard one word W services and amenities--Bliss, Wet, Sweat, etc.--to be in there.
