New Restaurant Coming to Trumbull
Parker’s Steak and Scotch and to open in May 2013
February 6, 2013 - Patrick J. Fahy, a Trumbull native, and owner of the successful Parker Eatery & Bar in Stratford, has announced his plans to open Parker Steaks & Scotch in Trumbull Center. “I am very excited to be part of the ongoing revitalization of Trumbull Center. The property owners have made amazing renovations to the building we will occupy and have provided me with a tremendous opportunity,” said Fahy. “It is a great feeling to open a business in the Town where I grew up, and Trumbull officials have been more than cooperative in helping us with every phase of this project.”
The announcement of the new restaurant on the westerly side of the Trumbull Center property comes after the owners of Trumbull Center have invested millions of dollars in capital improvements to rehabilitate the center. Regarding the restaurant, Fahy said “it will have an upscale but casual feel and will serve quality food, great wine, and an endless selection of scotch.” Fahy indicated that he plans to open his new restaurant on or around May 1, 2013. When the restaurant opens, it will feature not only a new restaurant, but a beautifully built covered patio for outdoor dining
First Selectman Timothy M. Herbst indicated that the recent investments made to Trumbull Center are part of an overall strategy that is attracting new tenants and new interests to Trumbull’s downtown. “As I meet people throughout our community, time and again I hear then say there is a need for more restaurants in Trumbull. The addition of Parker’s Steak and Scotch to Trumbull will be one of three restaurants that will open in Trumbull this spring alone. I am very pleased to have another quality restaurant in Trumbull. This commitment by a Trumbull-grown entrepreneur is a validation of the recent renovation work that the Trumbull Center ownership has undertaken.” The First Selectman went on to state that it is great to see Trumbull natives making business investments in their hometown. “Trumbull residents have made their entrepreneurial mark throughout the region; it is a great thing when one of them comes back to Trumbull to make a business investment, and I hope we can convince others to do the same.”
