Legal Sea Foods - Sunrise, FL (1999)

“Legal Sea Foods is a 10,000-square-foot restaurant that seats 350 guests. To maximize the vast ocean of space, Dorf Associates created a subterranean-themed atmosphere.

On the exterior, a 30-foot-tall illuminated fish and globe pylon constructed of metallic painted aluminum marks the dramatic entrance. Inside, a 10-foot abstract backlit schooner, with stainless-steel riggings, marine-wood details and a moving-wave light projector, takes center stage.

Sea creatures can be found at every turn. A railing dividing the dining and reception rooms is an abstracted eel swimming through a net. And by the raw bar, two tones of blue linoleum flooring, cut into a free-form design, are embedded with “schools” of stainless-steel fish. Behind the bar, curved wine racks evoke waves.

Curved banquettes divide the bar and dining areas. The millwork, composed of horizontal wood bands, mimics the deck of a sailing ship. And throughout the dining room, abstracted fish floor lamps uplight floating stainless-steel panels.”
