An old-time saloon located
at 44 Richmond Terrace, in the heart of historic St. George, proprietor
Danny Mills decided that a steakhouse is what the island needed offering
a view of Manhattan and terrace dining. In 1999 the Mills family razed
the building and reopened in July of 2000 as Ruddy and Dean.
The name originates from the
maiden names of Mills' grandmothers, Grandma Ruddy and Grandma Dean. The
tradition of cast iron pans to sear steaks and finish in high heat has
been passed down.
Today Ruddy and Dean
serves Staten Islanders and tourists alike and is quickly making a name
for itself as Staten Island's Premiere Steakhouse. A number of
well-known people have enjoyed delectable meals at Ruddy & Dean such as
football great Boomer Esiason, legendary boxing trainer and commentator
Teddy Atlas, boxer Gerry Cooney as well as a slew of local TV news
personalities, such as Art McFarland, Nina Pineda, Lou Young, and Tony
Penza, and numerous local politicians.
