Chef Robert Wiedmaier is proud to announce the first extension of his popular gastro-pub, Mussel Bar, outside of the Washington metro area. Opening this spring at Revel, a 6.3-million-square-foot beachfront resort in Atlantic City, Mussel Bar will blend the comfort of a pub, live rock and roll, the energy of a sports bar, and commitment to culinary excellence to raise “eating at the bar” to a whole new level.
The restaurant will include a stage for live performances and a dramatic, open kitchen to showcase the creative process inside. Paying homage to Wiedmaier’s roots, Mussel Bar calls upon inspiration from an old-world Belgian roadhouse serving biére, moules and frites and will serve traditional Flemish fare. Chef Wiedmaier will present a menu that pairs his fine dining talent with a respect for his featured ingredient, mussels, in serving up sophisticated comfort food. A selection of over 150 Belgian and domestic beers will be perfect accompaniment.
Revel will be a complete entertainment destination encompassing more than a dozen restaurants, three nightclubs, private beach club, more than 1,800 guest rooms, retail shops, a 31,000-square foot spa, two theaters, and a 150,000- square foot-casino. Revel will bring a true resort option to the Northeast, enhanced by entertainment and lifestyle offerings designed by top performers in daylife, nightlife, theatrical, spa and experiential programming.
