Delmonico's Adapts To Changing Wall Street Lunch Habits
A reporter spent a recent Wednesday at Delmonico's, a nearly 200-year-old Wall Street steakhouse, observing operations as staff prepared for lunch and dinner. Owner Dennis Turcinovic said the restaurant serves about 150 lunches and 300 dinners daily and hosts roughly 25 corporate events weekly; he noted firms are building in-house dining hubs while GLP-1 drugs have not materially cut steakhouse sales. Independent restaurants may face growing competition from corporate food halls.
