"When I purchased this building in 2014, I had a vision for a restaurant that would reflect Northeast Florida’s history, cuisine and culture. I am thrilled to share that our doors will officially open next Thursday,” Cowford Chophouse owner Jacques Klempf said.

The historic building located at E. Bay Street dates back to 1902 and has been restored to its original renaissance Revival style in the last two years.

Reservations can be made at CowfordChophouse.com and through OpenTable.
