Tony Roma, a veteran restaurateur,
opened his first restaurant, Tony Roma's Place,
with Chef David Smith in North Miami, Florida on
January 20, 1972, specializing in "Barbecued
Ribs". The restaurant featured a casual decor
and comfortable ambiance with the feel of a neighborhood
bar, genuine cordiality, a simple menu of sensational
food at reasonable prices, late-night food service,
and people traveled miles to sample this signature
product. Tony Roma's Place soon became one of Miami's
most popular and successful restaurants and firmly
established its niche in the marketplace.
In January 1976, Clint Murchison, Jr., a Texas financier
and owner of the Dallas
Cowboys, was in Miami for the Super Bowl. After
sampling Tony Roma's ribs and
cole slaw, he was convinced they were the best he
had ever tasted. Mr. Murchison
approached Tony Roma with the offer to purchase
the majority of the U.S. franchise rights and establish
a jointly-owned company, Roma Corporation. Along
with Tony Roma, he then launched an impressive growth
plan leading up to the rapid expansion which took
place during the 1980's. Tony Roma's award winning
ribs have been
introduced in restaurants across the U.S. as well
as in Canada, the United Kingdom, the Bahamas, Puerto
Rico and Japan. Currently there are more than 250
Tony Roma's restaurants worldwide. |
