Our Business
The Therien family started in the restaurant business in 1971.  Father John Therien started the Banana Boat Restaurant in September 1971,
on Commercial Blvd east of U.S.1.  John Therien and his sons moved to Boynton Beach in 1978 to build the Banana Boat in Boynton Beach, on Ocean Avenue and the Intracoastal.

In 1989 John Therien and his sons started the Fifth Avenue Grill steakhouse.  This fine dining steakhouse was the first in the area to offer prime steaks in a classic Chicago style fine dining atmosphere.  Since then many steak houses have opened up in the area, but as the locals know, Fifth Avenue Grill was the first, and still the best to offer Great Steaks at a fair price.

The Theriens are completely dedicated to the restaurant business.  They support the community through fund raisers, the Chamber of Commerce, and are loyal to their customers, staff and vendor partners.  The Therien family has a commitment to quality, service, sanitation, and fairness.

Any questions about the restaurant can be forwarded directly to Prime Catch or, our Corporate Office.
