What started on Long Island’s Gold Coast now reaches into the heart of Manhattan. Rothmann’s Steakhouse is much more than a restaurant, we are a dining landmark with a fascinating history.

It all began in 1907 when Charles and Franziska Rothmann invested their life savings in their dream of opening an inn and tavern bearing their name. That dream became a reality in East Norwich on Long Island, where Franziska’s wondrous cooking and Charles’ welcoming charm attracted a loyal following of notable politicians and socialites, including local resident Theodore Roosevelt.

Soon, regulars affectionately dubbed the restaurant Rothmann’s “House of Eats” for its exceptional steaks and plentiful trimmings. Years later, Franziska's and Charles’ children upheld their parent’s legacy by continuing to serve the finest food and drink in a setting where patrons felt both comfortable and pampered. The formula served them well as Rothmann’s reputation attracted such celebrities as Bob Hope, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor.

In 1970, world-renowned singer and songwriter Burt Bacharach purchased Rothmann’s. The torch was eventually passed to a succession of restaurateurs, but as times changed one thing never did, Rothmann’s commitment to providing guests with one of the most unique and pleasurable dining experiences available anywhere.

Today, Rothmann’s New York City location is a favorite among theatergoers, business people, shoppers and anyone else seeking a great meal, a beautiful location, and world-class service.

Rothmann’s. A great tradition, a glorious past, a brilliant future.
