Michael Mina and Stephen Curry to Open Bourbon Steak and The Eighth Rule at Westin St. Francis in October

City leaders present the Mina Group–run venture as a lift for Union Square’s recovery.

Overview

  • The Eighth Rule will be an intimate, reservations-only, roughly 40-seat bourbon bar developed with Curry’s Gentleman’s Cut brand.
  • Bourbon Steak returns to the hotel with Mina’s hallmark steakhouse menu, tableside presentations, and a central Bourbon Lounge bar.
  • Mina Group will operate both venues day to day, with Curry involved in developing the bar concept.
  • The Westin’s lobby has been overhauled by AvroKO with a new Powell Street entrance, a stage, and late-night programming until 2 a.m. on weekends.
  • The partners plan to hire about 150 employees, with the exact opening date and full menus to be announced closer to October.
