Cuningham is also working on the renovation and 24,000-square-foot expansion of the Tachi Palace Casino Resort in Lemoore, California to modernize features, including the conversion of the buffet into an expanded food market and a high-limit room. When complete, Tachi Palace will feature a more open plan and a symmetrical space with a sense of entry. It will include an expansive sports bar with indoor and outdoor dining and feature improvements necessitated by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Another exciting project is in Funner, California, at the Rincon Band of Luiseño Indians’ Harrah’s Southern California Resort. There, Cuningham is replacing the existing buffet with the largest version of multi-Michelin-starred chef Gordon Ramsay’s concept restaurant, Hell’s Kitchen. Construction began this fall, with the restaurant planned to open in 2022.
