AUBURN, Wash. (December 9, 2025) – Bobby’s Burgers By Bobby Flay continues its national expansion with the announcement of its first Washington location inside Muckleshoot Casino Resort.

Guests can look forward to Bobby’s signature culinary approach to classic comforts with bold flavors, quality ingredients and a chef-driven menu that’s both elevated and approachable.

Beyond the Unbeatable Burger menu, guests can enjoy made-from-scratch Buttermilk Onion Rings, Sweet Potato Fries and spoon-bending milkshake flavors like Pistachio, Cookies and Cream and Dark Chocolate.

The property, located at 2402 Auburn Way S, near majestic Mt. Rainier, features a 157,000-square-foot casino floor with over 3,400 gaming machines, 67 table games, one of the largest smoke-free gaming rooms, and a sportsbook, along with an 18-story hotel offering 401 luxurious rooms and suites, a resort-style pool, a full-service spa and a rooftop steakhouse.

“We’re proud to bring Bobby’s Burgers to Muckleshoot,” said Tim Perkins, CEO of Muckleshoot Casino Resort. “This partnership underscores our ongoing commitment to delivering the very best in guest experiences. Bobby Flay’s curated menu of top-quality burgers and unmatched flavor further enhances Muckleshoot’s standing as one of Washington’s premier destinations for dining and entertainment.”

“It’s been incredible working with the Muckleshoot Casino Resort team,” McGill said. “They reflect our passion for exceptional food and unforgettable guest experiences. We’re looking forward to growing together and serving visitors of Muckleshoot for years to come.”
