The marketplace space reminds me of the cruise ship layout on Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL). This would be a good benchmark for the developers if the current offerings don’t work out. Think smaller, intimate restaurants with a variety of meals. On NCL, they have a dedicated steakhouse, Japanese Teppanyaki, French cuisine and pub food. Also, the comedy venues on the ships are always packed with standing room only. All of these ideas, are aligned to making the venue a desired entertainment destination rather that a market to acquire goods and services which are available in the strip stores (Publix grocery, etc.)
