SPRINGFIELD, MA (Feb. 6, 2020)–MGM Springfield will welcome Costa, a classic Italian restaurant serving housemade charcuterie, pizzas, pastas, salads, desserts and more to the resort’s food and beverage portfolio on Feb. 28. The concept will celebrate the spirit of time-honored craftsmanship and tradition with an epicurean adventure that derives inspiration from the culinary landscape of Italy.

This will be Costa’s third outpost, having debuted as Osteria Costa at The Mirage Las Vegas and MGM National Harbor in 2018. Costa at MGM Springfield will be similar to its sister restaurants with first-class service standards and a relaxed ambiance yet will offer exclusive menu items inspired by the tastes and fare of the region. Costa will be located in the Cal Mare space, which will close Feb. 24.

“Authentic Italian cuisine is a hallmark of our South End neighborhood in downtown Springfield,” said Vice President of Hospitality for MGM Springfield Anthony Caratozzolo. “We’re honored to celebrate those traditions and make new memories with one of our own original restaurants. In Italian, ‘abbondanza’ signifies plenty, and that’s exactly what guests will experience at Costa. From family-style antipasti to generous portions of our housemade pasta, guests will savor the abundance of our take on Italian home cooking.”

Highlights of Costa’s menu include:

SAVOR
An Italian paradise awaits with a diverse selection of antipasti, handcrafted pastas, Neapolitan pizzas, hearty entrees, grilled seafood and more. Adding to the authentic Italian dining experience, fresh mozzarella will be created from scratch daily with seasonal accompaniments such as marinated peppers, eggplant caponata and basil pesto.
Expertly prepared in the restaurant’s hearth oven, the Neapolitan style pizza will be baked with a variety of toppings including flavorful meats and seafood. Chicken Parmigiana – a chicken parm lover’s dream – is made with free-range organic chicken and topped with pomodoro, mozzarella and basil. A seaside favorite and signature restaurant dish, the Linguine & Clams is made with garlic, chiles and lemon.
A colorful assortment of indulgent endings such as Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake, Neapolitan Cookie Gelato or Italian Cream Puff, served with ricotta cannoli ice cream topped with chocolate sauce, will offer a sweet conclusion to the meal.
SIP
Sipping through the Southern coast of Italy is made easy with a variety of housemade limoncellos and citrus-forward cocktails, as well as a robust wine program. The beverage program is designed around the simplicity of Italian classics, including:

Signature Limoncello – Crafted in-house daily, an assortment of three limoncellos will be available to cleanse the palate or as an after-dinner digestif.
Libations – Specialty cocktails incorporate familiar flavors of the Campania region. Highlights to include:
- Spritz – A blend of Aperol, brut prosecco and splash of soda.
- Negroni – Known as an Italian classic after it was developed in Florence almost a century ago, the Negroni is a combination of equal parts Campari, gin and sweet vermouth.
Wine - A collection of Italian wines pair impeccably with the authentic fare. The wine list will include a large assortment of Italian choices produced in the prominent wine-making regions of Piedmont, Tuscany and Veneto.

Costa will be open Sunday to Thursday 5 p.m.-10 p.m., Friday and Saturday, 5 p.m.-11 p.m. For reservations, visit OpenTable or call 413-273-5430.

MGM Springfield is a hotel and casino complex situated in the heart of Metro Center, Springfield, Massachusetts, United States. Opening on August 24, 2018 in a block of buildings that are historically or culturally influential to Springfield, it became the first resort casino in the Commonwealth.^[1] It is owned and operated by MGM Resorts International.^[3] MGM Springfield opened its doors to the public on August 24, 2018. It was then temporarily closed on March 14, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It reopened to the public on July 13, 2020, after nearly 4 months of being closed, with safety precautions and reduced capacity in place. Chris Kelly is the current President and COO of the MGM Springfield.

History[edit]

Proposals[edit]

MGM Springfield was one of three proposals in the city of Springfield, Massachusetts for the Western Massachusetts casino license. Casinos were also proposed for Holyoke, Palmer, and West Springfield. On December 2, 2012, MGM Springfield and Penn National's Springfield proposal became the remaining two proposals for Springfield when Ameristar withdrew its Springfield proposal for the former Westinghouse site.^[4]

On April 30, 2013, Mayor Dominic Sarno selected MGM Springfield as the winning proposal for the City of Springfield, defeating the Penn National proposal for the north end of the city, and on July 16 Springfield voters approved the casino application, making MGM Springfield the state's first proposal to win voter approval in its host community. MGM was then in a three-way race with Hard Rock's West Springfield proposal and Mohegan Sun's Palmer proposal. On September 11, 2013, West Springfield voters voted to block the Hard Rock proposal, leaving only MGM and Mohegan Sun in the race for the license. MGM Springfield won the bid for the Western Massachusetts license on November 6, 2013, when Palmer voters blocked the Mohegan Sun proposal, leaving MGM Springfield as the only Western Massachusetts proposal to win voter approval. (Had either Hard Rock or Mohegan Sun won voter approval, the state's gaming commission would have had to make the final decision.)^[4]

MGM officially received the license on June 13, 2014. It joined two other license winners: Penn National, which was awarded the slot parlor license, and Wynn Massachusetts, which was awarded the Eastern Massachusetts Region A casino license. As of November 6, 2014, it received its Region B license^[4] and is expected to open in 2018.^[5]

On November 4, 2014, a referendum attempting to ban casinos in the state failed.^[6] The plan for the construction of the casino at the time would have required the demolition of some buildings in downtown, including the partial demolition of one on the National Register of Historic Places.^[7]

MGM design[edit]

The South End Market, built out of the former United Electric Building, is one example of ways the casino complex was integrated into the city's historical landscape

On September 22, 2015, MGM unveiled a redesigned site plan for the project, abandoning the 25-story glass-facade hotel on State Street in favor of a 6-story hotel on Main Street. The changes also included the reduction of the parking garage by one floor and the market-rate apartments being moved off-site.^[8]

MGM has pledged to create about 3,000 permanent jobs to benefit the local community. The company announced that it would have various job descriptions available, including security officer, assistant executive housekeeper, food and beverage manager, host person, 21 dealer, concierge, assistant front desk manager, front desk clerk, and housekeeper, a spokeswoman gave as some examples.^[9]

MGM Springfield opened to the public on August 24, 2018. The $960,000,000 project is built in an area that sustained significant damage by a tornado that struck Springfield on June 1, 2011.^[10] The 2-million-square-foot (190,000 m²) complex contains a gaming area surrounded by a parking garage, hotel, spa, movie theater, restaurants, and shops. The 125,000-square-foot (11,600 m²) casino features 2,550 slots, 120 table games, a high-limit room, and a poker room with 23 tables.^[11]
