Steakhouse restaurants continue to be a hot tenant, even though this fine dining category is generally considered one of the pricier options out there. Perhaps the steakhouse remains popular because it appeals to customers who are simply yearning for old-school, meat-and-potatoes concepts. Steakhouses, which regularly contain banquet rooms, are also frequently visited for mass gathering special events, whether it is a birthday celebration, a holiday office party or even a wedding reception. Although steakhouse restaurants prefer downtown urban street-front sites near offices and luxury apartments, or upscale high density suburban markets, there is a growing trend of the major brands opening locations in less populated markets that are in need of a fine dining establishment.
