ROLE
Construction Manager
When Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille was building their first location outside of Texas in 2013, the restaurant group entrusted ICI. The 11,000 square foot build-out on the ground floor of Neiman Marcus in Oak Brook Shopping Center in Oak Brook, Illinois was a success. Perry’s then opened their second location in Illinois (this time in Schaumburg) and once again selected ICI as their construction manager. The 12,000 square foot restaurant opened in October 2020 and features Perry’s newest design elements and offers seating for 330 diners, four private dining rooms and a bar attached to a spacious patio. Most recently, ICI has been hired as Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille’s construction manager for concurrent renovations to five of their locations across three states. Improvements to the following restaurants are currently underway: Frisco, Sugar Land, and Woodlands, Texas; Lone Tree, Colorado and Oak Brook, Illinois. Each restaurant is open throughout construction. The scope of work varies by location but largely includes transforming each of the restaurants into Perry’s newest scheme: a vibrant color palette with modern touches punctuated by details that celebrate the local community.
