Houston, we have liftoff.

Shuttles, a new restaurant in The Satellite Hotel, 411 Lakewood Circle, was opened by Steve Kanatzar, owner of The Airplane Restaurant.

“I want to be known as the guy who can take care of inexpensive banquets and receptions,” Kanatzar said. “We have a banquet space here that will seat 170 people.”

The eatery will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Kanatzar was able to get a liquor license, too. His son, who has trained as a chef, will be in charge of the kitchen. The website is under construction, but you can call 596-6800, ext. 4.
