WOLFGANG PUCK FINE DINING GROUP ANNOUNCES LEAD TEAM FOR NEW SUMMERLIN RESTAURANT
Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill coming to Downtown Summerlin this October
The Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group is proud to announce the executive team for its new Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill opening at Downtown Summerlin this fall.
Chef Mark Andelbradt will serve as the restaurant’s Executive Chef and Cheryl Mahar as the General Manager. Slated to open in October, the restaurant will mark the company’s seventh Las Vegas restaurant and Puck’s first off-Strip location.
Mark Andelbradt is currently part of the Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group family where he oversees Wolfgang Puck’s Postrio at The Venetian’s Grand Canal Shoppes as executive chef. A native of Chicago, Andelbradt has held high positions in prestigious kitchens including Daniel in New York with Daniel Boulud; Morimoto in both Philadelphia and New York with “Iron Chef” Masaharu Morimoto and Brasserie T and Tru in Chicago with Rick Tramonto and Gale Gand.
“It’s exciting to be a part of Wolfgang’s first off-Strip restaurant in Las Vegas,” said Mark Andelbradt. “Las Vegas is now home for my family, and I’m really looking forward to becoming even further rooted in the community with this great neighborhood restaurant.”
Colorado native Cheryl Mahar is no stranger to the Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group. Mahar began her managerial experience at Spago Las Vegas inside The Forum Shops at Caesars where she worked for six years. While at Spago, Mahar helped cultivate staff incentive and training programs as well as developed wine and beverage programs. From there, Mahar held various managerial and sales positions with Roy’s Hawaiian Fusion, Cili Restaurant and Bali Hai Golf Course and Wirtz Beverage, providing her with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the food and beverage industry.
“I’m looking so forward to re-joining the Wolfgang Puck family,” said Cheryl Mahar. “It was tremendously rewarding to be a part of Wolfgang’s first Las Vegas venture when I was with Spago in the early 90s. Now I have the opportunity to become a part of Wolfgang’s history again with the opening of our first Las Vegas neighborhood restaurant.”
