Broadacres Marketplace Reopens After Shuttering Over Immigration Fears
The sprawling open-air market in North Las Vegas went quiet, citing safety concerns within the local immigrant community amid a wave of federal immigration raids. At the time of closing, a spokesperson for the market said the decision was made 'out of an abundance of caution and concern' for its vendors, customers, and staff, many of whom are immigrants or second-generation U.S. citizens with family members who are immigrants. The shutdown displaced more than 1,100 small businesses — including food vendors like Birria de Res Zacatecas, Pupuseria El Cordero, and Las Enchiladas de Mama, who sell everything from handmade pupusas and birria tacos to mango chamoy snacks. The abrupt halt highlighted the deep unease rippling through immigrant communities as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) steps up operations in Nevada. Since 1977, the 45-acre marketplace has served the communities of North Las Vegas — where the population is 41 percent Latino residents, according to 2024 Census data — and the larger Southern Nevada community. The doors will open at 4 p.m. on Friday and opening weekend will be marked by family-friendly activities, kids' attractions, and a food fair with restaurant and snack vendors. Broadacres announced the reopening on Instagram and several vendors and customers commented with both excitement and trepidation — calling for clearer guidance on what steps are being taken to protect the community. Representatives from Broadacres Marketplace did not respond to a request for comment. Backstreet's Back … as shrunken heads The Golden Tiki The Golden Tiki Following their larger-than-life shows at the Sphere, the Backstreet Boys made a semi-secret appearance at the Golden Tiki. The preeminent Chinatown bar presented Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, and AJ McLean with custom shrunken heads — the latest additions to a collection that includes Bryan Cranston, Randy Couture, Robin Leach, Rod Stewart, Siegfried & Roy, and more. Since opening in 2015, the Golden Tiki has debuted more than 250 heads. It celebrates its 10th anniversary in August. Nona's Lobster Shack pops up at the Fontainebleau Fontainebleau Las Vegas is going all-in on New England summer with Nona's Lobster Shack, a new pop-up launching Saturday, August 2, inside Promenade Food Hall. The takeout menu includes lobster rolls with crab chips, New England clam chowder, shrimp cocktail, and sides like potato salad and coleslaw. There are also focaccia sandwiches filled with oven-roasted turkey, Italian tuna, fried chicken, and classic Italian deli meats. The shack will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Sunday. Baja meets Vegas in one-night-only dinner Sparrow + Wolf will host a special dinner on Sunday, August 3, with guest chefs David Castro Hussong and Maribel Aldaco Silva of Fauna — currently ranked number 17 on Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants. The one-night-only collaboration will blend Fauna's modern Mexican cuisine with chef Brian Howard's signature style. The $195 prix fixe meal includes Baja oysters, California halibut, heirloom corn, a variety of salsas, and more. Chef DJ Flores of Milpa and Nocturno is contributing yellow bolita corn from Oaxaca's Central Valley, and local grower Desert Moon is supplying lion's mane mushrooms.

Some of Our Favorite Dallas Restaurants Closed This July
is an editor for Eater's Texas region. She lives in Dallas, where she's written about James Beard-celebrated and Michelin-recognized restaurants and she loves nachos. In a fast-paced city like Dallas, restaurants come and go all the time. Know of a Dallas restaurant closure that's not on this list? Drop us a line at dallas@ CBD Provisions One of the Joule hotel's restaurants will close for a rebranding. CBD Provisions is no more, and the hotel will open a new restaurant in its place in 2026, it announced in an Instagram post. CBD opened more than a decade ago. Niwa BBQ CheapSteaks Another Deep Ellum spot that fused cheap steaks and live music closed at the very end of June. One of the three owners, Jeff Beihler, has taken control of the spot and will reopen it as Dusty's, reports the Dallas Observer. The emphasis will be on DJs, and food will fall by the wayside — the menu may become only a hamburger and a hot dog. Red Stix Chef Uno Immanivong announced the closure of the University Cities location of Red Stix in an Instagram post on Sunday, July 13. No specific reason was given, but she did note that the location in Farmer's Branch remains open and that she will open a catering and test kitchen soon. This Red Stix had been in operation for six years. Staycation Coffee One of the Metroplex's most beloved coffee shops unexpectedly (to the public, anyway) announced it will close in September. The shop was plotting a move to a new location and ended up posting to Instagram that instead it would be taking what the owners hope is just a 'hiatus.' The owner cited medical and health issues, as well as the financial and mental health strains that came with them, as well as a surprise notice that its five-year lease for a converted house in Richardson was being cut a year short, to end in September 2025. In the process of moving, the owners also had a miscommunication about funding from the city that put their plans out of reach. So, after four years, Staycation will close its doors in Richardson — but with plenty of time for final visits from its customers and the possibility of a return in the future. Swank Chef Luke Rogers vacated his restaurant's spot on Beckley Avenue on Saturday, July 26. His lease with the owner and local legend chef Sharon Van Meter was up, and Rogers tells the Dallas Observer he decided not to renew and instead to look for a larger space. The new restaurant will be half a mile away, by White Rock Brewing Company, and the opening date has not yet been announced. Brix Barbecue Both the Fort Worth and Dallas locations of this barbecue joint, which is on Texas Monthly's top 50 list for 2025, will close on Sunday, August 17. Owner Trevor Sales posted on Facebook, writing, 'While we love the BBQ World, we have decided it's time to move on. As the restaurant landscape has changed, so have my passions, family life, career, and what's important to me. I still love to cook and serve others, and plan to continue to do that through my private dining concept, Tallow.' He was unwilling to commit to calling it the end of Brix forever, however. Bodacious Bare-B-Q After 34 years in business, this Arlington barbecue joint is closing early in August. CultureMap Fort Worth reports that the closure is due to its lease not being renewed. Its other locations in Tyler, Kilgore, and Sulphur Springs, which are independently owned, will remain open. The owner of the Arlington spot hopes to reopen elsewhere. OG Cellars The last glass of wine has been poured at this Grapevine spot. At the end of June, it closed its doors after only a year in business. In a Facebook post, the owners noted that 'in today's economic climate it is just not sustainable for us to keep our doors open.'
