As the project nears completion and the owner starts to add the finishing touches of tables, art work, signage, and other items for their opening, Breslin Builders is completing our last items to complete the project. Final inspections have been received and now the owner is working on getting things ready for their opening, anticipated for later this month.
The design-build restaurant remodel project, Lo-Lo’s Chicken & Waffles, located at Rainbow and Lake Mead at the Best In The West shopping center is nearing completion with an anticipated January 2016 opening.
This project is a remodel of an existing Tony Roma’s restaurant and conversion to a new Lo-Lo’s location, the first in Nevada. In addition to new finishes and decor to match the Lo-Lo’s style and the remodel to incorporate an outdoor dining area, we also provided full kitchen upgrades, upgrades to the electrical, plumbing, and mechanical systems, as well as ADA upgrades for the restaurant.
The Lo-Lo’s Chicken & Waffles restaurant remodel project in northwest Las Vegas is progressing with the interior finishes starting to take shape. The new bar canopy is being installed. The exterior storefront and glazing is being installed. The kitchen upgrades and remodel is also being finalized.
This project is currently anticipated to open the first of 2016.
Breslin Builders has started the earthwork and underground utility portion for a new project being constructed on Cactus Avenue in the southwest part of the valley, 3600 West Cactus, just east of Valley View.
The project will consist of two retail building spaces totaling over 20,000 square feet. In addition to the shell retail/restaurant spaces, Breslin Builders will be providing full on-site improvements, as well as half street improvements for Cactus Avenue.
What was once part of the dining area has been removed and preparations are making way for the future outdoor patio area at the new Lo-Lo’s Chicken & Waffles restaurant at 2040 N. Rainbow Blvd., in the northwest part of the Las Vegas valley. The restaurant, a former Tony Roma’s, is being converted to a new Lo-Lo’s Chicken & Waffles, the first franchise location in Las Vegas.
Breslin Builders is providing design-build services for this new restaurant remodel and addition, with the demo work being to first scope of services provided. Permits are approved with the City of Las Vegas Building Department and we will be shifting into full construction work.
We anticipate the restaurant opening by the end of 2015.
Breslin Builders has started the selective demolition work for the new Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles restaurant at the Best in the West center at Rainbow and LaKe Mead in northwest Las Vegas. The project is a remodel of a closed Tony Roma’s restaurant into a new Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles, which will be the first location in Las Vegas. The project consists of a complete kitchen remodel, bar remodel, dining room finish changes, addition of a new outdoor patio area, and other minor adjustments for the new location and brand. Some recent site photos of the progress are below. Working closely with the owner’s team, Breslin Builders has provided design-build services for the project. Look for the new new location to open in November 2015.
Below are interior photos of the PDQ Restaurant on West Sahara that we recently finished. More info about PDQ can be found on their website. This is the second Las Vegas valley location we have finished for them. The first one was on Craig Road and Allen in North Las Vegas.
The Las Vegas Review Journal did an article about the new restaurants opening in Downtown Las Vegas, three of which Breslin Builders provided both design and construction services for, as well as the facade remodel.
Breslin Builders last restaurant in the Sears Retail building at 7th and Carson is finishing up and getting ready to open in a few weeks. As with the other two restaurants (Glutton and Vegenation), as well as the facade remodel, Breslin Builders provided design-build services for this project. Below are some progress photos of the interior finishes.
Breslin Builders is in the process of building PDQ Restaurant’s second Las Vegas area location (our first project was their PDQ Craig Road location in North Las Vegas, Nevada). This one is located on West Sahara at Richfield Boulevard. Framing is in progress. Look for a summer opening on this location.
Breslin Builders recently completed the first PDQ Restaurant in the Las Vegas valley at Craig and Allen in North Las Vegas, Nevada. This is the first of a number of locations anticipated in the Las Vegas area, including the second location we have already started construction work for on West Sahara.
Breslin Builders is almost completed with our first PDQ Restaurant located at Craig and Allen in North Las Vegas, Nevada. Final punch list items and cleaning are being completed for an expected opening in the next week or so. Progress photos can be seen below.
Following the near completion of our North Las Vegas PDQ project, we are starting the early grading work at the new PDQ location at West Sahara and Richfield. This project will be a new restaurant in an existing parking lot. Once final building permits are pulled full work will be started. We anticipate a completed project mid-Summer.
Breslin Builders is getting closer to completing the Sears Retail project and the associated restaurants, including Glutton and Vegenation. We received meter tags from the City of Las Vegas and meters have been set by NV Energy. The long anticipate electrical work to connect the needed upgraded power is due anytime from NV Energy, based on their install schedule, which will allow us to finalize the shell and restaurant projects for final approvals and occupancy.
Zydeco Po-Boys Restaurant is taking shape also with the build-out in the rough framing, rough electrical, mechanical, and plumbing stages.
Progress photos are below:

Breslin Builders is providing construction services for two new PDQ Restaurant locations in the Las Vegas valley. The first at Craig and Allen in North Las Vegas is well under way (see photos below). Our second project will be starting soon at West Sahara Avenue and Richfield.
Breslin Builders is progressing with the updates to the Sears Retail Center, including the work on the exterior facade and site changes and upgrades, as well as the interior restaurant build-outs for Glutton and Vegenation. The last part of the facade work at the west end expansion is being completed in preparation for the interior work of Zydeco Po-Boys Restaurant to take place, which the building permits have finally been approved by the City of Las Vegas. Once we have the upgraded power feeds installed by NV Energy, we can complete the balance of the open items and prepare for final completions.
On Friday, November 14, 2014, Breslin Builders’ Todd McBrayer and Steve Moore, attended the ENR Southwest Best Projects 2014 awards luncheon at the Renaissance Hotel in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. ENR Southwest has recognized the Downtown Container Park as their Best Projects 2014 in the Office/Retail/Mixed-Use category.
Breslin Builders is honored and excited to add this award to others we have been part of the past, with one exception. This project is one were we provided both the design and the construction, delivering on the vision that Downtown Project and Tony Hsieh had for the corner of 7th and Fremont, and for the innovative use of shipping containers in a retail and mixed-use environment. It is not everyday that a company gets to do projects like the Downtown Container Park, a truly unique project in downtown Las Vegas, and one that we hope many other shipping container projects will use as their “research project” (just like Breslin Builders did with previous projects in the world).
We are grateful for the efforts of our entire team of engineers, designers, subcontractors, and employees that made this project possible.

The design is done and plans have been submitted for the third and final restaurant space at the existing Sears building located at 7th and Carson. Breslin Builders is currently providing construction services for the shell remodel and two other restaurant spaces (Glutton and Vegenation), which we previously provided design services also.
Zydeco Po-Boys will be the smallest of the three restaurant spaces and will provide Cajon style cuisine in a walk-up order counter and “to-go” format. A small dining space has been provided for those wanting to dine in. A full service kitchen has been specifically designed for this space including preparation areas for various on-site made items including sausages, gumbo, and other Cajun cooking. Design features include exposed concrete floors, reclaimed wood accent walls, brick veneering accent walls, and exposed ceilings.
Look for this space to join the others first quarter 2015, providing one more variety of cuisine along Carson Avenue in downtown Las Vegas.
It’s been a long time coming, but the newest Blueberry Hill Family Restaurant at Flamingo and Decatur is finally set to open. Breslin Builders provided design-build services for the project, which is a remodel to an old Marie Calendar’s Restaurant that had previously closed and was purchased by Blueberry Hill. The project features updated interior finishes, an updated and expanded kitchen area, a new bar area, and new exterior building finishes and site refresh. Other items included a new roof and other maintenance items to bring the old restaurant up to date.
Below are photos from the interior work.
