About Us

Louie and Pete Dontas made their way
from a small island in Greece to the bright lights of New York City
in the early 1970s. Both brothers had dreams of making it big on
their own. However, they soon came to realize that there is no stronger
bond than family. So in the early 1980s, the brothers combined forces.
Their motto was to ensure that their guests felt like part of the
family, by providing them with great food, friendly service, in
a clean, comfortable, and fun atmosphere. Today, their traditions
and values continue at the COPPERHEAD with their
sons Michael L. and Michael P. (named after their grandfather).
"We wanted to create a place where we could combine the
values that we had learned from our fathers with what we look for
when dining out." Thus was born the COPPERHEAD
GRILLE, a place where you can enjoy flavors from around
the globe as well as local favorites, catch a game and relax with
your family and ours.
