It was originally a six-stool bar and 20-person dining facility with a menu that included steamed beer and fried chicken. Schlesinger's son, Mickey, and his partner Dick Basso bought the club in 1955. Soon after, they renamed the club The Brass Door. Over the years, the partners expanded the facility to include a 20-stool bar, 50-seater cocktail lounge and a dining area for 160 guests. Following a brief period of closure in 1994 due to a fire, the restaurant was rebuilt and is still operational from its original location in San Ramon, California.
