Bobby Van's

Bobby Van opened his first Restaurant in Bridgehampton, New York, in the summer of 1969, where he tended bar and played piano. The Restaurant quickly became famous with local musicians, writers, poets, and artists. Bobby Vans legacy of quality food, service, and atmosphere quickly grew into a thriving year round Restaurant in the Hamptons. Eventually after 20 years, Bobby would lose interest in running a Restaurant and he sold his business to four Manhattan restaurateurs; Joseph Smith, Joe Phair, Rick Passarelli, and Joe Hickey. The new operators soon opened a second location in the Helmsley building on Park Avenue. Considered by many the Original because it was the first official steakhouse of the Bobby Vans group, the Park Avenue Bobby Vans is unmatched. For location food, and service among steakhouses in New York. The Bobby Vans family has since grown to include Bobby Vans Steakhouse and Grill on Broad Street in the financial district, Bobby Vans Grill on East 54th Street, two Times Square locations on West 45th Street and West 50th Street, two D.C. locations, an airport Restaurant at JFK, and a take-out burger joint called BVs Burger, also in Times Square. At Bobby Vans Restaurants, we believe the customer should always be greeted warmly and with a smile, service should be friendly and efficient, and the food should be delicious and plentiful.
