110 Grill Continues Impressive Expansion Bringing Modern-American Concept to Crossgates
Upscale-Casual Restaurant Ventures Out of New England to Open Sixteenth Location with More on the Way in 2018
ALBANY, NY - March 9, 2018— This Summer, 110 Grill Restaurant Group continues with their rapid and impressive expansion, this time out of the comforts of New England and into unchartered territory. Debuting at Crossgates Mall in Summer 2018, 110 Grill will open the doors to its 16th location of the fast-growing modern-American concept, confirming the team at 110 Grill sees no signs of stopping in the coming years. 110 Grill sees the Albany community as the ideal location to lay down roots, offering warmth and comfort through their American cuisine with a trendy restaurant feel.
“We’ve been growing at a record pace in New England and have been contemplating several locations beyond our regional borders for some time. When we decided to set our sights on the Mid-Atlantic region we researched which areas would be best serviced by the addition of one of our restaurants and we wanted to be certain we found strategic partners to grow in tandem with us. We found that with the Pyramid Management Group and Crossgates Mall. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have our first location outside of New England to be in the state of New York and with the great people of Albany,” said Ryan Dion
In addition to Albany and the recent openings in Athol, MA, Stratham, NH and Fall River, MA, the 110 Grill team shows no sign of stopping, and is projected to open multiple locations through 2018, including Massachusetts locations in Worcester, Holyoke, Woburn, Wrentham and Saugus, and New Hampshire locations in Manchester and West Lebanon. The next location opening is expected to be Worcester in May with more New England locations opening in 2018/2019.
Following the vision of Director of Culinary, Elliot William, 110 Grill Albany brings his global culinary influence to the menu with seasonally-inspired dishes that are proficient in allergy awareness, offering the entire menu 100% gluten-free. Guests can enjoy seasonal additions which include Shrimp & Clam Linguini with sautéed shrimp tossed in an herbed clam sauce with roasted tomatoes and linguini, finished with basil and parmesan with grilled ciabatta bread, Pappardelle Bolognese with a blend of beef, pork and veal topped with parmesan and fresh basil, 110 Meatloaf Burger with a mixture of ground beef, pork and veal with a smoky glaze, served with an herbed focaccia bun with leaf lettuce, fried onion strings and sriracha ketchup, and Candied Walnut Encrusted Goat Cheese Salad with drizzled amber honey, artisan greens, arugula, caramelized onions and blueberries tossed in a balsamic reduction. Signature items on the menu include Cucumber & Avocado Tuna with sliced Cajun tuna, jasmine rice, avocado, thinly sliced cucumber, honeydew melon, and light soy ginger dressing, and impressive steak cuts include 110’s Bourbon-Marinated Steak Tip served with a whiskey glaze.
The new 110 Grill Albany is the perfect place to enjoy classic favorites to celebrate the summer season. The bar features a variety of craft beer offerings from both local breweries and national brands, a diverse wine list and creative signature and seasonal cocktails. 110 Grill Albany’s exciting signature cocktails include the sweet-and-tart Honey Flower, with The Botanist Gin, elderflower liqueur, lemon and honey syrup, 110 Rye Old Fashioned with Redemption Rye Whiskey, honey syrup, cherry and orange, and a choice either of Apple Cider Sangria, with Pinot Grigio, Flaming Leprechaun cinnamon whiskey, apple cider syrup, orange juice and cranberry apple shrub, or the Wild Berry Sangria, with Merlot, mixed berry puree, cherry vodka and Triple Sec, topped with Sprite.
