Brewery restaurant chain entering NYS

BUFFALO, NY -- A Tennessee-based restaurant chain will open its first New York State location in the fall.

Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant plans to open in the Walden Galleria in Buffalo in October. The original opened in 1988 in Palo Alto, CA. It was acquired by the Big River Brewing Company in 1999 and since has expanded to 29 restaurants across the country and three locations in Taiwan.

The chain brews its own German-style lagers. Its seafood dishes include seared tuna, cedar plank salmon and lobster-and-shrimp mac 'n' cheese. Its menu also includes steak frites, lobster-and-shrimp tacos, and sweet-and-spicy cashew chicken stir fry.
