This site will be a place for those of us that spent many months to many years working for the Mr.Steak chain or franchised Mr.Steak Restaurants. Many good friends were made while we worked hard serving those millions of lunches and dinners. This blog may be a way to find some of them and how they are doing now. Anyone remember the Free Steak Dinner for guests with a birthday? How about the big steer head on the building with his stupid tongue hanging out? Have any photos of your Mr.Steak years?

Seeking photos of Mr. Steak restaurants and staff members from the unit where you worked
If you have Mr. Steak related photos like restaurant interiors or of you and your fellow staff please email them to me at mahardison@gmail.com and I will post the best ones on this blog. Any Mr.Steak photos would be great. Thanks!

Wondering if there's any activity on this blog, or if it's died like Mr. Steak. Today is January 22, 2018 and I just found this. I was blessed to have Mr. Steak #7, down the street from Disneyland, as my first job from 1975 to 1980. I don't recall if I have any photos, but I do have a lot of memories! Our managers during those years: Ernie Kelleher, Peter Young, Allan Price - and later, Do-Tzu Hoo (after the restaurant was sold and became Family Steak)
ReplyDeleteI worked under Ernie Kelleher in Modesto. He was the Kitchen/Assistant manager and I was a cook. I took his position in July of 1972 when he left.
ReplyDeleteHey Marty. I worked with in both Modesto and I believe La Mesa
DeleteHello! My father worked for Mr. Steak as a restaurant opener from 1968/69 and then as an area coordinator till about 1972, I think. I've got some of the original menus, a staff operations manual, the sticker they'd put on a company car and the plaque of the restaurants my Dad helped to open ((#257 - Tallahasse, #505 in Lansing, #47 in Petoskey, #380 in Massillon, #473 in New Castle) if you'd like pictures for this blog.
ReplyDeleteI would also really LOVE put him in touch with anyone who was the first manager or first set of staff of those restaurants when they opened. Especially Jack and Janie(?) Killion of an Illinois(?) restaurant he helped open (they wrote him a nice letter after that he still has) and the Seattle one on Ranier Ave. that he helped open. Tony Pizzo and anybody who remembers the cigarette machines in the Pennsylvania restaurant that Tony came and helped sort out. Also anyone from Mr. Steak's division called InService (he worked for that division in 1969) - they opened cafeterias in big company buildings. Dad wrote something for one of the newsletters in 1969.
I worked there for many years until the fire. I was the galley supervisor and later became the manager
