New plans for old steakhouse

4 comments November 3rd, 2008

The former Ryan’s Steakhouse at 5051 E. State St. is set to be reborn into Jimmy P’s, a restaurant and sports bar. According to information from the city’s Liquor Advisory Board, the owner, James Pantazelos, is adding 4,273 square feet to the 11,763 square feet already at the store. Pantazelos’ business plan calls for an upscale, family dining restaurant and sports bars, which will have separate menus. He intends to have 15 large-screen TVs to show sports events.

The liquor license was approved at the Oct. 21 liquor board meeting, and still faces City Council approval. Construction is under way at the restaurant on the additional space.
