Company Overview

Ark Restaurants Corp. is a U.S.-based restaurant holding company that owns and operates restaurants, bars, fast-food concepts, catering operations, and food-service venues in high-traffic urban and tourism-oriented markets. The company operates primarily in the hospitality and food-service industries, with a portfolio concentrated in destination dining, casino-based restaurants, and airport concession locations. Revenue is generated mainly through on-premise food and beverage sales, catering services, and concession operations.

The company’s operations are concentrated in major hospitality and entertainment markets including New York City, Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Florida, and Washington, D.C. Ark Restaurants has historically differentiated itself through long-term concession agreements, strategic placement in tourism-heavy venues, and relationships with casino operators and public venue authorities. Founded in 1983 by Michael Weinstein, the company expanded from standalone New York restaurant concepts into a diversified operator with exposure to gaming, travel, and entertainment-driven dining traffic.
