Eva Longoria relaunching Las Vegas club/restaurant

Actress Eva Longoria is planning to relaunch her Las Vegas restaurant as a top steakhouse for women and celebrate its grand opening with a big party on New Year's Eve (31Dec12).

The Desperate Housewives star temporarily closed the Beso eatery and the Eve nightclub above it in 2011, just two years after its launch, and bosses at its parent company Beso LLC subsequently filed for bankruptcy.

However, Longoria and her business partners have been working to revamp the entertainment venues and reports suggest she is turning the space into a lavish new dining and nightclub destination.

Food blog Eater Vegas reports the restaurant will have a 1920s theme, while the club will have a more theatrical element to it with sexy female performers on display.
