Place Categories: Bars, Cocktail Bars, and NightlifePlace Tags: Clique Hospitality, Durango Casino & Resort, and Wax Rabbit
Industry trendsetter Clique Hospitality has welcomed the arrival of a new concept at the eagerly awaited Durango Casino & Resort, Wax Rabbit, a seductive speakeasy hidden inside Mijo Modern Mexican Restaurant.
Wax Rabbit, an immersive, 1,000-square-foot speakeasy hidden behind the walls of Mijo, pairs the rich flavors of classic libations with Mexico’s finest spirits, highlighting the flavors of expertly curated mezcals and tequilas. Cocktails, which include the Nopales, made with Patron reposado tequila, Ancho Reyes chile liqueur, cactus and mint, honor Mexico’s rich spirits heritage, while extravagant cocktails tantalize guests’ taste buds, such as the Cloudkicker, featuring Tres Generaciones tequila, solera sherry and rock lemon, garnished with cotton candy resembling a cloud hovering over the glass.
Every night, DJs will spin music that spans genres on ‘wax,’ as vinyl records were dubbed during the rise of the underground bar scene in the ‘80s, evoking a sense of nostalgia. Those in the know will discover a hidden entrance, where one must “find the right rabbit to pull” to enter this world of music and libations. Wax Rabbit is open from 6 p.m. to close Tuesday through Saturday.
The new Durango Casino & Resort by Station Casinos is poised to become the ultimate destination for luxury hospitality off the Strip, anchored by the arrival of these new, immersive concepts. Clique Hospitality will also introduce a stylish poolside retreat to the resort, Bel-Aire Backyard, in late spring 2024.
