Schwartz Brothers Restaurants, a privately held partnership headquartered in Bellevue, was founded in 1970 by Bill and John Schwartz. Bill's son Danny became President in 2020. As the Northwest's premier multi-concept restaurant and food service business, we pride ourselves on developing and growing unique restaurants where a guest can expect a great meal in a distinctive atmosphere. We seek out world-renowned chefs to develop award-winning menus. A memorable dining experience is not only an expectation, but also a guarantee at Schwartz Brothers Restaurants.
From the October 1970 opening of The Butcher Restaurant in Bellevue to our April 2007 opening of Spazzo Italian Grill & Wine Bar in Redmond and today, the focus of Schwartz Brothers Restaurants has been to provide our guests with an exceptional dining experience each and every time they visit us.
