Boca Park and Tivoli Village: New Restaurants and Cafés in 2026

Boca Park and Tivoli Village face each other across Rampart Boulevard, a little north of Charleston. For most of the past decade, the two centers settled into fixed roles. Boca Park had the long-running neighborhood staples and a very large empty grocery building. Tivoli had the showrooms and the sit-down dining.

In 2026 those roles changed. The grocery building filled up. A café that had been at Boca Park for 16 years reopened on the Tivoli side. Two businesses tied to Las Vegas' Chinatown now operate within sight of each other. Put together, a Summerlin errand run that once needed a cross-town drive on Spring Mountain Road can now start and finish at one intersection.

The Coffee That Moved Across Rampart

The first sign that this stretch of road was sorting itself out came as a goodbye. In early August, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Sambalatte would close its Boca Park café on Aug. 27. The owners said they had been "unable to reach an agreement on renewing our lease." The same announcement said the company was "actively searching for a beautiful new home."

That new home was very close by. By late September, the Review-Journal reported that the café was serving again as Espresso Urbano by Sambalatte, inside PKWY Tavern at Tivoli Village, 450 S. Rampart Blvd. Here is how the café's own announcement, which the paper reprinted, described the move:

"Sambalatte didn't disappear. We just moved across the street... We're now inside PKWY Tavern at Tivoli Village, directly across the street from our former Boca Park location."

The new setup works differently from the old one. The coffee bar is open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. It pours Espresso Urbano drinks and serves food from PKWY Tavern's kitchen. Ordering ahead is encouraged, and there are dedicated 15-minute pickup spots for a quick stop. PKWY Tavern is part of Fine Entertainment, a Las Vegas company with four taverns in Las Vegas and three in Henderson. So a 16-year independent café now runs inside a local restaurant group's space, on the other side of the same road.

As of mid-October, no new tenant has been reported for the former Sambalatte space at Boca Park.

A Decade-Empty Grocery Box Gets Spring Mountain Road's Best-Known Market

The coffee shop changed sides, but the bigger story at Boca Park this year came back from a long vacancy. The building at 820 S. Rampart Blvd. last held a Haggen supermarket, which closed around fall 2015. In January 2026, 99 Ranch Market announced a Jan. 24 grand opening in that space, according to the Review-Journal. The building had been empty for roughly ten years.

The connection to the rest of the city matters here. Before Boca Park, 99 Ranch's only Las Vegas Valley store was on Spring Mountain Road in Chinatown. The Review-Journal's coverage of the media preview, held the day before the grand opening, described shoppers who were glad to have Asian groceries close by so they no longer had to drive into Chinatown's traffic.

The store is a full shopping destination. Opening coverage described about 50,000 square feet with more than 12,000 products, live seafood and meat counters, ready-to-eat and grab-and-go food from an in-store Asian Gourmet Kitchen, and items such as xiao long bao and dumplings. The company's opening announcement also listed Peking duck kits to take home. The company also announced a B/F Bakery Café in the store, with Asian-inspired breads, pastries, cakes and stone-oven flatbreads in flavors such as Kung Pao Chicken and Korean Bulgogi.

The building is bigger than the grocery store. According to the Review-Journal, 99 Ranch's parent company, Tawa Supermarket, bought the roughly 63,000-square-foot building in summer 2021. It leased part of it to Nevada Brew Works, a brewpub that the paper's January 2026 story said had opened "this past fall." Nevada Brew Works' website lists the Boca Park location as open daily from 11 a.m. to midnight. A building that sat dark for years now has a grocery store, a bakery counter and a taproom, all at one address.

Tivoli Picks Up Chinatown's Dinner Table

Across the street, Chinatown showed up again, this time at dinner. In May, the Review-Journal reported that Yu by Sijie, a modern Chinese-fusion restaurant from the creators of Special Noodle in Chinatown, was headed to Tivoli Village. The restaurant's own FAQ says Yu is related to Special Noodle but is a separate brand, not another Special Noodle location. It soft-opened on Aug. 7, 2026, at 400 S. Rampart Blvd., Suite 190.

Eater Vegas included Yu in its October update of the city's best new restaurants. It highlighted crisp Peking duck carved tableside and served with pancakes, cucumber, scallion and sweet black bean sauce. The menu also includes dim sum, chile-oil fish and crab, wok beef, seafood soups and noodles. According to the restaurant's site, the founder, Sijie, also called Amy, has 30 years in American restaurants, opened Special Noodle in 2021, and designed and built the Tivoli dining room herself.

That puts two kinds of Peking duck on one block. At 99 Ranch you can buy a duck kit to cook at home. Across Rampart, Yu carves one at the table. Before this year, either one usually meant a trip toward Spring Mountain Road.

Tivoli's other summer addition explains how the center itself is changing. Eichholtz, the luxury furniture and home-design brand, was announced for 350 S. Rampart Blvd., Suite 160, across from RH. It carries the full Eichholtz range and offers a design studio. Tivoli's directory now lists it as a 4,552-square-foot showroom with daily hours. The showrooms stayed, and now a morning coffee counter and a duck-carving dining room operate next to them.

Who Is Where On Rampart As Of October 2026

Planning A Rampart Run This Fall

Here is one realistic order for a weekday loop. Start with an order-ahead coffee from Espresso Urbano before 2 p.m. and use one of the 15-minute pickup spots. Then cross to Boca Park for 99 Ranch's seafood counter and bakery, and come back to Tivoli for dinner at Yu. Yu's Tivoli listing says service hours are still being set during the soft opening, so it's worth calling ahead.

Tivoli also has a few recurring dates on the calendar. Jean-Marie Auboine Chocolatier runs a "First Tuesday 15% Off" promotion from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. through Dec. 1, so the next two first Tuesdays are Nov. 3 and Dec. 1. La Casa offers nightly live entertainment, and Martini & Music Thursdays run through the end of the year. The center's website also features seasonal events such as Skellington's Spooktacular and a Nutcracker Night Market, but 2026 dates for those haven't been posted yet.

If Rampart is now your Chinatown substitute, there's one more possible stop farther north. In January, the Review-Journal reported that China Mama, a Las Vegas Chinese restaurant group whose flagship began in Chinatown, planned a China Mama Express at 2233 N. Rampart Blvd. in the former Sicilian Guys Pizzeria space, and that it would likely open within about a week. We haven't found an independent confirmation of the opening date, so check before you go.

Three things are still unknown as of mid-October: what will replace Sambalatte at Boca Park, when Yu will set permanent hours, and when Tivoli will post its holiday calendar. Those will shape the next round of changes on this stretch of Rampart.
