Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse continues national expansion, serving up a top full-service restaurant franchise opportunity
Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse is a leading dining destination providing an everyday indulgence to a wide variety of diners. Converging classic steak and Italian cuisine, the brand is positioned between casual and fine dining concepts, creatively blending sophistications of the past with a modern edge.
Each Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse location features a supper club ambiance that is brought to life by entertaining service, stylish décor and its trademarked Blue Bar where hand-crafted cocktails are skilfully prepared.
The popular steakhouse brings to life 40 years of operational expertise highlighting that in order to be an endearing concept, it must first be enduring.
With an expanding franchise network of 13 restaurants and two more coming on line by Q1 2019, the brand continues to experience strategic growth across the United States and has plans to grow to over 20 new locations by 2020.
“We’ve experienced solid growth the past few years and plan to continue this momentum throughout the end of the year and well into 2019,” said Mike Whalen, CEO and Founder of Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse. “As the industry continues to thrive, especially in the hotel hospitality space, we aim to identify the culturally aligned franchisees to partner with as we continue to foster their growth and financial success.”
Johnny’s can be positioned in one of three market models: end caps in lifestyle centers, free standing units and mid-upscale hotel environments. Locations are strategically placed in secondary and tertiary markets.
Devoid of downward compression from pricier fine dining concepts, Johnny’s is able to position itself at the upper tier of the market while offering affordable dining experiences to guests.
Ideal franchisees are professionals with restaurant ownership experience, highly-accomplished operators, and those with full service hotel portfolios.
Additionally, the company is seeking individuals who possess a motivating mindset with a strong interest in investing in an enduring restaurant concept. Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse has its eyes set on franchise expansion across the country and is eager to form strategic, long-lasting partnerships.
