Guests will enjoy a delicious variety of Italian fare via counter service or grab-and-go. Veteran restaurateurs Frank DePasquale and Nick Varano of Fratelli, and owners of over a dozen Italian concepts in Boston’s North End, will bring Frank & Nick’s, an approachable and casual dining concept, to WynnBET Sports Bar. An extra-large spherical digital display will exhibit the top sports scores from around the world and suspended sports equipment, a collection of trophies, classic sports accessories, and a collage of historical images of local sports heroes and events will decorate the space. A 15-seat full-service bar with tabletop video poker sits in the middle of the venue, while dining and lounge seating surround the space including more than 40 VIP seats and reclining media chairs providing the ultimate experience.

That's not a great return on a $2.6 billion investment in a resort, so look for Wynn to try and boost casino and other non-gaming-or-room revenue streams.Guests will be in awe as live games and sports classics play on more than 60 TVs throughout the venue, as well as on a 1,230-square foot immersive video wall. With an EBITDA margin of 30%, which would be ideal, it would generate $165 million of EBITDA. In Las Vegas, room revenue is about 30% of Wynn's revenue if that ratio holds true in Massachusetts, the resort could generate $550 million of revenue each year. What we don't know is if this new resort will make enough money to be considered a good investment. And with room prices starting that high, we can expect restaurants and shows to be very expensive as well. There's no question that Wynn Resorts is going after well heeled visitors and gamblers with Encore Boston Harbor.

If the resort can average $675 in revenue per available room it could generate $165 million in revenue from rooms alone. As of now, room prices range from a low of $675 on weekdays to $875 on weekends, and higher than that for some dates. But the room prices may generate as much revenue as a much larger resort might.

The 27-story main tower has only 671 rooms, a fraction of the thousands normally housed in a Las Vegas Strip resort. Rendering of Encore Boston Harbor from the water.
