" While we originally intended to open Steak 48 in April 2020, the world had other plans for us," begins Jeff Mastro, CEO and Co-owner of Steak 48. "In light of today's health crisis, we, alongside many other restaurateurs, have been forced to rethink our opening strategy and pivot our business model. As the re-opening of indoor dining continued to see delays, we maximized the use of this extra time for both front-of-house and back-of-house training and preparation to ensure when we do open, we open with the very best version of the Steak 48 concept."
Leading the kitchen area will be Philadelphia-native Executive Chef Robert Watson and Chief Executive Chef Marc Lupino. The menu offers up Streak 48's signature USDA prime steaks, ultra-premium wagyu beef, and regionally-sourced seafood.

Exclusive to Philadelphia, Steak 48 has partnered with Blanton's Bourbon to offer their select single signature barrel of whiskey to pair together with select Steak 48 dishes. In addition to wine and whiskey, look for an extensive craft cocktail menu featuring a wide selection of spirits hand-picked to pair with dinner items.
"After a few years of learning from our guests, Mike and Jeff built this restaurant on the core foundation of kindness, consideration, and true hospitality," said Oliver Badgio, Steak 48's Chief Brand Officer. "More than ever, we recognize that diners are cautious about when, where, and how often they dine out. They are looking for a redefined dining experience – the perfect marriage of great food and drink, Steak 48 aims to offer just that, focusing on the totality of the experience and taking care of our guests from start to finish to make sure everyone enjoys the best quality food with top-notch service that is always genuine and sincere."
