About Hearthstone
With a menu rooted in comfort and crafted for conversation, Hearthstone invites you to linger a little longer, laugh a little louder, and eat like you mean it. Whether it’s a low-key brunch, a dinner that runs late, or the kind of night that didn’t need a reason—Hearthstone is the place you’ll want to return to before you’ve even left.
Meet Executive Chef Jason Janson
My path into the restaurant industry began far from the heat of the kitchen. While pursuing a journalism degree during my freshman year of college, I took a job at a local restaurant to make ends meet. I worked through every front-of-house role—host, busser, server, and bartender—until a sudden kitchen emergency changed everything. I stepped onto the line to help, and despite growing up in a family of great cooks, I wasn’t prepared for how addictive the rush of a busy service would be. I traded my pen for a chef’s knife, completing my Associate’s Degree before enrolling in culinary school.
After graduation, I cut my teeth at Citizens Bank Park—home of my beloved Philadelphia Phillies—before returning to the fine-dining restaurant where I apprenticed as Sous Chef. My journey then took me to Colorado and the prestigious Broadmoor Hotel. Though I began in the kitchen, my versatile background led me into management, overseeing operations at both The Hotel Bar and The Golden Bee. I later joined Denver-based Atomic Provisions during a period of rapid expansion, helping develop new menus, concepts, and locations.
The pull of the kitchen eventually brought me to Las Vegas for a permanent return to the chef coat. I spent over two years at the world-renowned é by José Andrés, immersing myself in avant-garde techniques and culinary storytelling. Most recently, I worked under legendary Marc Vetri—first at Osteria Fiorella and ultimately as Executive Chef of Vetri Cucina Las Vegas.
Today, as I lead the opening of Hearthstone, I draw on this diverse background to craft an eclectic menu rooted in Americana and influenced by the soulful, regional traditions of Italian cuisine.
When I’m not in the kitchen, I’m surrounded by music. I play multiple instruments and am an avid vinyl collector, always hunting for new sounds across genres. And no matter where I am, I remain a die-hard fan of the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, and Sixers.
In closing, I would like to add: "Wu-Tang is for the children."
Nestled inside Red Rock Resort, it’s a place built on real moments—where shared meals turn into stories, and familiar flavors are given just the right twist. The space feels lived-in and loved, warm without trying too hard, and always ready for whoever walks through the door.
