FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TERRA ROSSA INSIDE RED ROCK RESORT AND TERRA VERDE INSIDE GREEN VALLEY RANCH ARE NOW OPEN FOR LUNCH

Terra Rossa and Terra Verde open to create two new local “power lunch” locations

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (September 24, 2009) – Station Casinos is proud to announce that two of its signature Italian Restaurants, Terra Rossa at Red Rock Resort and Terra Verde at Green Valley Ranch) are now open for lunch. Both restaurants will open daily for lunch, with Terra Rossa opening at 11am and staying open through dinner service; and Terra Verde opening from 11:30am and staying open through dinner service. Each restaurant will be serving a lunch menu that is similar to its dinner menu in style, though with a focus on lighter cuisine and value-driven prices served in portions more suited to lunch.

“This decision was driven by our guests who have created a demand for great Italian food for lunch,” said Bryan Dillon, Director of Luxury Culinary Operations for Station Casinos. “We listened to their feedback and are very excited to offer our guests the opportunity for a delicious, affordable and approachable Italian lunch on both sides of town.”

The menus, created by Chef Nicola Nieddu from Terra Rossa and Chef Elisabeth McGee from Terra Verde will both showcase a variety of soups, salads, pastas, pizza, Panini and entrées that are perfectly portioned for lunch, with prices to match. Examples include (items/prices subject to change):
