STK Steakhouse Marks Strategic Expansion with New Topanga Location Under The ONE Group Ownership

The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. (Nasdaq: STKS), the company that owns STK and operates a diverse portfolio of upscale dining brands, has officially launched its newest venture in California’s San Fernando Valley. The cutting-edge STK Steakhouse location in Topanga brings the brand’s distinctive Vibe Dining concept to the heart of a bustling shopping district, solidifying the company’s presence across the state.

The Vision Behind STK’s California Growth

Emanuel “Manny” Hilario, President and CEO of The ONE Group—the organization that owns STK and manages its strategic direction—shared his enthusiasm about this milestone: “This represents our commitment to expanding access to our signature dining experience. We’re thrilled to introduce our elevated steakhouse concept to the Topanga region, building on the tremendous success of our existing locations in Westwood, San Diego, and San Francisco.”

The push into Topanga follows the company’s broader strategy of controlled growth in premium dining markets. With the ONE Group’s ownership and operational expertise spanning multiple restaurant concepts including Benihana, Kona Grill, RA Sushi, and Salt Water Social, the organization brings decades of refined hospitality management to every new venture.

Topanga’s Premier Dining Destination

Situated at 6600 CA-27 within the prestigious Westfield Topanga Shopping Center, the new STK location occupies a commanding position in the retail complex. The two-story establishment features an outdoor terrace capitalizing on California’s year-round climate, creating an inviting space for both casual diners and special occasion celebrations.

The design aesthetic reflects STK’s signature approach: neon accents spelling “California Dreaming,” dramatic floral arrangements, and the iconic STK letter flower wall. A prominent bull statue anchors the front entrance, serving as a recognizable landmark and Instagram moment. The centerpiece circular bar facilitates an open, social atmosphere, while private dining rooms equipped with entertainment systems accommodate groups seeking privacy.

The Complete Dining Experience

STK Topanga delivers a multifaceted culinary and entertainment package. The kitchen crafts signature dishes including the Lil’ BRG Sliders, Wagyu Meatballs, and Short Rib Quesadillas, complemented by an extensive selection of dry-aged steaks and award-winning wine pairings sourced globally.

Entertainment forms an integral part of the Vibe Dining experience, with resident DJs programming music throughout the week. The venue accommodates multiple occasions: weekend brunch service, full lunch and dinner menus, and a celebrated late-night Happy Hour perfect for post-shopping celebrations and weekday unwinding.

Operational Schedule and Access

The Topanga location welcomes guests with flexible hours designed to accommodate various occasions:

• Monday through Thursday: 11am to midnight
• Friday: 11am to 1am
• Saturday: 10am to 1am
• Sunday: 10am to 11pm

Beyond dine-in service, STK Topanga operates an elevated takeout and delivery program, extending its culinary reach to the surrounding community. Online reservations are available through the official STK platform, streamlining the booking process for planning ahead.
