Carversteak at Resorts World Las Vegas is rolling out a Metallica-themed dining experience during the band’s Sphere residency, including a $20,000 package with a signed guitar and exclusive menu items for a limited time.
Metallica’s Sphere residency has brought a new kind of spectacle to Las Vegas. Carversteak at Resorts World is now offering something that goes far beyond a typical pre-show meal. The Fade to Grand package, priced at over $20,000, puts a signed Metallica guitar at the center of the experience. James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo have all signed it. For collectors, it’s a trophy. For fans, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime dinner.
Carversteak isn’t just serving food. The restaurant has built a limited-time menu that drops guests straight into Metallica’s world. The Carve ’Em All Pre-Show Menu is packed with dishes and cocktails named after Metallica classics. You can only get them during the Sphere residency. This menu lines up with Metallica’s "Life Burns Faster" run at the Sphere, which kicked off on October 1, 2026, and is set to run through March 13, 2027, according to iHeart.
Metallica’s Sphere residency features 24 concerts, with 11 shows in 2026 and 13 more in 2027, making it one of the most extensive runs in the venue’s history.
Inside the Fade to Grand package
This isn’t just about the guitar. The Fade to Grand package includes The Master, a cocktail created by Francesco Lafranconi, Carver Road Hospitality’s vice president of beverage. It’s a mix of Michter’s 25-Year bourbon, Grand Marnier Quintessence, Okinawan kokuto black sugar, and aromatic bitters. The drink comes with seared foie gras and a finish of 24-karat gold. Carversteak says the package is available for reservation through sevenrooms.com/experiences/carversteak/the-heavy-metal-high-roller-4598175332155392.
