Cabo Wabo — at 3950 N. Cedar Ave., Suite 101, in the Granite Park complex – opens tonight for three private nights, before its public grand opening at 11 a.m. Friday. The cantina is the creation of rocker Sammy Hagar (formerly of Van Halen), who started the restaurant, bar and live music venue in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. There’s a second location in Lake Tahoe. Fresno’s Wabo is the third.
For the grand-opening festivities, Aaron Hagar, Sammy’s son, will perform, Granite Park developer Milt Barbis says. Barbis also says Cabo Uno, the house band from the original Cabo Wabo location, will play here soon.
Hagar himself also can be expected in Fresno soon, says Barbis, though the date is being kept a secret. It should be within the first month. Hagar friend Michael Anthony, the ex-Van Halen bass player, is expected to be in Fresno next week. Part of the allure of Cabo Wabo is that Hagar’s star power attracts drop-in guests.
“Fresno has always been good to [Hagar],” Barbis says. “So he’s really excited to do this for the city.”
5) Sammy Hagar open’s “Sammy’s Beach Bar & Grill” at Maui’s Kahului Airport
The Hawaiian Islands’ casual, beach environment and Hagar’s personal flare inspired the atmosphere and ambience of Sammy’s Beach Bar & Grill. Signed memorabilia from the artist’s personal collection adorn the walls surrounding the bar. Sammy Hagar, Van Halen, and other rock and surf inspired music provides the backdrop.”Music and dining are two of my great passions. Our menu is the result of recipes and advice I’ve received from some of my favorite friends, the celebrated chefs I’ve met in my travels across America. Working with HMSHost to develop Sammy’s Beach Bar & Grill has been an unparalleled positive experience,” said Sammy Hagar.
Sammy Hagar will dedicate his profits from this restaurant to local community children’s charities through the Hagar Family Foundation. Guests can enjoy a great meal and know that together they have made a difference to local children in need.
