Cathédrale Las Vegas honors the legacy and DNA of the original Cathédrale, located in Moxy East Village. The New York City restaurant was particularly inspired by the Fillmore East, a now-shuttered but legendary Lower East Side rock ‘n roll concert hall, with its soaring ceiling and underground spirit. The Las Vegas location extends the spirit of that layered, urban decadence and grit, while celebrating the architectural drama, grandeur, and decorative flourish inherent to the restaurant’s brand.

The new restaurant and lounge is located within ARIA Las Vegas and adjacent to CATCH (also designed by Rockwell Group) in the main lobby. Guests enter the restaurant through blue velour swag drapery cascading from behind a brushed bronze marquee frame. A small reveal in the curtain facade invites them to continue along a dramatically lit tunnel that leads to the lounge.

The arched tunnel features metal frame modules containing metal mesh panels, interspersed with textured metallic plaster walls. Niches hold flickering candles. Gold metal pieces in the mosaic tile floor increase as the tunnel terminates at a custom art piece by Portuguese artist VHILS.
