Creating first class brands
Respected in their industry for both quality and innovation, founders Joe and John Lanni and Alex Blust, have created several unique and successful restaurant concepts, making up the Thunderdome Restaurant Group portfolio.
The Lanni's passion for restaurants began by watching their father, founder of Great Steak and Potato, grow the business from one to 285 locations throughout the 80's and 90's.
Today, TRG manages a growing lineup of leading brands spanning 50+ locations including Bakersfield, The Eagle, Currito, CityBird, SoHi, Maplewood, Krueger's, Pepp & Delores, and The Davidson.
