Solar Powered Steakhouse

Wow, a solar powered steakhouse?!? Great job you guys!

Ted’s Montana Grill in Tallahasee, Florida is the first restaurant based chain to install and use solar power.. This restaurant is owned by Ted Turner and is an eco-friendly restaurant in a chain of 49 restaurants in 18 states, “menus are printed using recycled paper, no plastics are used in the restaurant and soft drinks are served in recyclable glass bottles“.In all the popular restaurant has “installed 44 panels on the upper roof and 22 panels on the patio roof — 66 panels total. The panels supply about 5 percent of the restaurant’s energy needs”.
