TOG’s signature restaurant brand expands to new city; marks first location in midsize market

NEW YORK & DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. (“The ONE Group”) (Nasdaq:STKS) today announced the Company has opened the 14^th STK restaurant in the heart of Denver’s LoDo District, steps from the iconic Larimer Square.

Located in the trendy, historic neighborhood of LoDo (lower downtown), STK Denver is bringing its "Vibe Dining" experience to the city's epicenter. The 7,000 square foot sleek space seats 275 diners. In addition to being mere blocks away from the bustling Union Station and the famed 16th street pedestrian mall, STK Denver is walking distance from Coors Field (Colorado Rockies) and Pepsi Center (Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche) and near Sports Authority Field at Mile High (Denver Broncos).

The menu features numerous locally-sourced dishes created exclusively for Denver by local Executive Chef William Tuggle and his team. Guests can expect dishes such as the Colorado Rack of Lamb and Boulder Natural Chicken, as well as STK's world-renowned collection of signature items. The bar menu reflects Denver’s thriving craft brew scene, serving up a wide selection of locally brewed beers, in addition to specialty cocktails and an extensive wine selection. STK will be open nightly for dinner with lunch service scheduled to begin this spring.

“We are thrilled to kick off the first quarter of 2017 by opening a new STK in Denver. This market embodies exactly the vibe and energy we seek in midsize markets and we couldn’t be more excited to be joining this vibrant community,” shared Jonathan Segal, CEO, The ONE Group.
