Brothers Phil and Floyd Landry began their business by opening cajun seafood restaurants in the Houston, Texas, area in 1980.
Tilman Fertitta became CEO and quickly began standardizing the appearance and menus of the restaurants; removing the Cajun spicing from most dishes and scrubbing away the unique interior of Willie G’s.
In 2010, Landry’s, Inc., acquired three new restaurants: Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, Claim Jumper, and The Oceanaire, a national collection of seafood restaurants, known for flying in fresh fish daily.
In 2011, Landry’s bought two more restaurants, McCormick & Schmick’s Seafood, and Morton’s The Steakhouse.
In 2012, the company expanded its entertainment division, opening the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier.
Today, Landry’s is an American, privately owned, multi-brand dining, hospitality, entertainment, and gaming corporation. The company owns and operates more than 600 restaurants, hotels, casinos, and entertainment destinations in 35 US states as well as the District of Columbia. The company also owns and operates numerous international locations.
