A popular pizza kitchen and bar at MGM Springfield, Costa, held its grand reopening on Friday after being closed since 2020.
The casino’s executive director of hospitality, Chris Smigel, shared the interesting history behind the restaurant’s original opening.
“We rebranded and opened pre-COVID only two weeks before we had to shut everything down,” Smigel said.
MGM Springfield has slowly been shifting operations back to normal and reopening Costa is the final piece of the pie. Smigel told Western Mass News that Costa is the last MGM restaurant to reopen following the original shut down in 2020 and said the casino has been very strategic with their plans.
