Fog Cutter Capital Group, Inc. is a Minnesota‐based holding company whose primary business is the ownership, operation, and licensing of Don The Beachcomber® restaurants. Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, the company controls the rights to one of America’s pioneering Polynesian‐themed dining concepts, overseeing day‐to‐day restaurant operations as well as trademark management and brand development.
The company directly operates two full‐service Don The Beachcomber restaurants in the Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan area, offering a menu of classic tropical cocktails, island‐inspired entrees, and catering services for private events. In addition to its company‐owned locations, Fog Cutter Capital Group pursues opportunities to expand the brand through licensing agreements, ensuring consistent quality standards and maintaining the vintage resort‐style ambiance that has defined Don The Beachcomber for decades.
Fog Cutter Capital Group also holds its restaurant real estate in a separate subsidiary, allowing it to manage property leasing, maintenance, and capital improvements in support of its hospitality operations. The company’s licensing unit is responsible for the protection and enforcement of the Don The Beachcomber trademark in the United States, safeguarding the legacy of a dining concept that traces its origins to the mid‐20th century.
Founded in 1989 and headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, Fog Cutter Capital Group has been led since its inception by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Leonard Eitan. Under his stewardship, the company has focused on preserving the historical appeal of Polynesian cuisine while exploring selective growth opportunities within its regional home market.
