The lawsuit alleges inadequate contact tracing efforts at the three properties, which did not immediately shut down after employees tested positive for COVID-19, as well as “unreasonable rules and procedures” for addressing the spread of the virus.

A food runner at Sadelle’s Cafe inside the Bellagio tested positive for the virus, as did a cook. At Guy Fieri’s Las Vegas Kitchen and Bar, located in the LINQ Promenade, it was also a food runner who tested positive.

“I want the companies to treat us like humans and not like machines that only make money for them,” said Jonathan Munoz, a food server who has worked at Guy Fieri’s Las Vegas Kitchen and Bar for six years.
