The restaurant is located at 121 Green St., in what used to be known as Antony's. The old house which accommodates the eatery has been totally redecorated and offers four levels to local restaurant patrons. On the lower level there is dancing and dining. Music is provided not only by a dise jockey but by music video on two 10-foot screens as weIl. The ac- tion goes every Monday to Saturday night. On the first floor, the main level of this establishment, there is a casual dining room complete with a stand up bar. The menu specializes in steak, seafood, pasta. and finger food.s. Climbing the stairs to the second floor, one finds yet another 10-foot video screen and dance floor that is also served. from a stand-up bar. Finally, there's the loft. A cosy, intimate lit- tle spot that holds only about 30 people. The loft is Durham's premier shooter bar and also boasts a small intimate dance floor. According to Serge Beraldo, the restaurant's public relations spokesman, the dress code at Stair- ways will be strictly en- forced. "It's a nightclub and restaurant, affordable to everyone," Beraldo says adding that Stair- ways is designed for "la more mature crowd". The kitchen is staffed by the two chefs who worked for Antony's and this reporter was quite pleased with the steak dianne he had for lunch the other day. The menu starts off with six appetizers in- cluding a crab cocktail, a shrimp salad cocktail, escargots and clam chowder. A french or caesar salad is also of- fered. The most expensive item on t he lunch menu is the broiled nib eye steak at $6.50 but most of the other tempting items retail at less than $5. These include four different luncheon salads, three kinds of veal dishes, steak and seafood. One of the more in- teresting items on the menu is their potatoe of- fering. Instead of the usual fried or baked, Stairways offers french fries or scalloped potatoes (which I can testify to being quite good). The dinner menu is quite extensive but also reasonably priced. The most expensive item here is the pepper steak at $13.95. It should be noted that the majority of the entrees are in the $7-$8 range and their prime nib seils for $11.50 one of the best prices in the region. Dinner follows the lunch menu but also in- cludes several pasta dishes including fettue- cine (both ai pesto and alfredo), linquine and tortellini. Also offered for din- ner are two chicken dishes, five beef dishes, and seafood items in- cluding poached spring salmon, fresh trouts and filet of sole stuffed with asparagus. Stairways promises to be a big hit with local restaurant addicts if the lunch time crowd last Thursday was any in- dication. Check it out, whether for lunch, din- ner or a night on the town, Stairways promises to be a lot of fun.
