Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse is reminiscent of the classic supper clubs of the 1940’s and 1950’s where no one was a stranger. Johnny’s is not considered to be a stuffy fine dining restaurant, but rather a personification of its mantra "Hot Steaks, Hot Music, Hot Italian…Cool Place!" It blends the traditions of the past with the present by adding a touch of class with a lot of edge. The restaurant is warm and welcoming with illuminated lighting creating an air of mystique and privacy. Heavy velvet draperies will not only add to the aura but create opportunities for intimate and private dining space within the restaurant. Classic sounds of Frank, Dean and Sammy Davis, Jr. as well as contemporary crooners like Michael Buble and Harry Connick Jr. surround you, giving the place an aura and rhythm all of it’s own. With new-fashioned luxuries and old-fashioned service and relationships, Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse brings the Rat pack era into the 21st Century. Johnny’s steaks take center stage, whether it is the classic Steak DeBurgo or the ever-popular Drunken Steak. The Italian menu also features well developed traditional entrees and unique creations like the Veal Sinatra and Chanel No. 5. A glowing neon blue bar invites you to enjoy classic martinis, specialty cocktails or wine off an extensive list. All of which sets Johnny’s stage for lunch or dinner. The seamless transition between the hotel and Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse allows hotel guests to experience dining excellence. The new location will offer custom menus to accommodate business meetings, holiday parties, private dining, rehearsal dinners and family gatherings.
