The Bravern announced today that the owner and head chef of Seastar Restaurant, John Howie, will open a new concept steakhouse at The Bravern. The restaurant will span 9,000 square feet and will be located on the ground level facing 112th NE.

This will be the first Puget Sound Chef-owned steakhouse, offering a variety of steaks, chops, fresh seasonal seafood, poultry, vegetables, and cheeses.

John Howie Steak adds to the list of Neiman Marcus, Jimmy Choo Shoes, and Wild Ginger as publicly announced tenants who’ve signed at The Bravern (just under 40 more to go).

The newly announced restaurant will not be the only new steakhouse in town. El Gaucho, which was recently announced, will be located only a few blocks away over at City Center Plaza.

The Shops at The Bravern are scheduled for completion in 2009 and include 305,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space.

  1. Anybody know anything else that is slated to be announced???

  2. I doubt it’s going to face 112th, that’d be a horrible location facing 405. Most likely it will be within the retail plazas along NE 8th or 110th. I read the press release and it says the Bravern complex is located on NE 112th, not that the restaurant will be facing that street.

  3. Here it is straight from the press release:

    “The 9,000 square foot restaurant will be located on Level 1 of The Shops at The Bravern facing 112th Avenue NE and will be among the 40 purveyors whose fashion and lifestyle offerings are available for the first time in the Pacific Northwest.”

  4. you gotta alotta eyeballs on the bravern when slowly creepin down 405. good visibility. and i guess you can see the cascades in the distance. not quite a DQ blizzard, but it will do.

  5. Daniels, Ruth Chris, El Gaucho, John Howie. Get ready to rumble for my Steak dollar 🙂

  6. I’m still bitter about the Ruth’s Chris Happy Hour going away, so you probably won’t find me there.

    Can’t wait for John Howie, and surely Daniel’s is local a classic!
