"A popular trackside restaurant in the horse racing mecca of Saratoga Springs is opening a Manhattan eatery with the backing of New York Yankees relief pitcher Mariano Rivera.
Keith Kantrowitz, a managing partner of the ownership group that includes "Entourage" stars Kevin Connolly and Kevin Dillon, says Rivera is one of the investors in the Siro's restaurant
- scheduled to open early next month in midtown Manhattan.
Kantrowitz tells the Daily Gazette of Schenectady that Rivera is hosting a private party at the restaurant on Thursday, an off-day for the Yankees.
In 2010, Racing Restaurants of America bought Siro's from a group that had owned the upscale restaurant since the early 1980s.
The original Siro's is adjacent to Saratoga Race Course and is mainly open only during the city's summer racing season."
