Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen restaurant is finally making its debut in California. Harrah’s Resort Southern California initially announced its partnership with the British chef in July 2021. Hell’s Kitchen officially opens on Friday at the Valley Center property, but if you’re planning on dining, reservations must be made in advance and they’re going fast.

We got to preview the new celebrity kitchen concept, which features decorative elements and menu items inspired by the hit reality TV cooking competition, “Hell’s Kitchen,” earlier this week.

We’ve got the details on the all-new space, which includes an elevated bar with Ramsay’s signature cocktails, an entire room dedicated to red wine and menu items that were standouts on the series.
